Equipping your ship
You can turn your ship into a fighting machine provided you have enough credits.
Under attack
It’s dangerous out in deep space, especially if you go up against pirates.
Launching a missile
You still hit “T” to target, but the missile effects look a lot different in 2014.
An explosion out in space
Getting in a killer shot after a prolonged dogfight was a joy back in 1984 and is just as pleasurable today.
Game Over
Death comes too easily in Elite. At least it looks suitably spectacular in 2014.
