Do you remember Elite, the mother of all space simulators? And Elite :First Encounters as well.
I was wondering if there are space simulators which follow the same pattern. Trade, explore, fight etc. Especially the realistic ones where you can actually enter a planets atmosphere and land.
Most space simulators stay only on space fights. No spaceship modifications (hull, engines... ) and the planets are only background. You can't approach them and even if you get too close something happens and the game forbids you to go any further.
In Elite you had complete freedom to go anywhere and land anywhere.Is there any similar game to Elite?
The X series seems close to it although I'm not sure. Haven't seen X3 yet.
