Thats because generally UK law does actually work, unlike most places around the world where you just need a suitcase full of folding and a small militia.

Updated future odyssey content??
- Thread starter CMDR Star Lord
- Start date

As for future Odyssey content - that is about as predictable as FD's share price in one year. But there still is no correlation. I'd say the announcement of a new release has larger impact. If you can predict the announcement of a new release then you're good. Predicting the actual release date and when it'll record in what financial year would be really good.
Whats everyone's fascination with Fdevs share price? arnt there other trading sites for that?

Anglo Saxon law is weird because it isn't as codified. It must be somewhat effective because these countries produce solid businesses. But coming from a codified law region it appears kinda "intangible".
Investing money into companies can be a good way to combat inflation losses. The market usually adjusts price for inflation "automatically".
Aye but this is a forum to discuss a game and its content.
Having worked for the UK arm of a multi billion dollar entertainment company let me give you a list of things that were implemented (financially wise) as a result of posts on their multitude of forums/social media platforms in the 20 years i was there.

Right, I think we should point that out to the people who like to bring up the share price. Maybe they do that because they are clutching for straws.
Yes, I'd tend to think the poor sods are either completely confused about how companies work, or they are simply trolls clutching at straws hoping to provoke some reaction.
Though I'm pretty sure that the silliness of the argument is normally pointed out very quickly!

It is full of rabbit holes, to put it politely.
How about that!
We are in complete agreement over something.
ETA: Even when I suggest trying the game, I'm not disparaging you, it really has changed completely over the last 5 years (since 3.3 for me) and progress is much more linear - it was quite 'tough' pre-3.3 for me - engineering is still there, and collecting mats still needs time (something I've never debated - although, again, better since 3.3) and targets have to be chosen carefully using a ship with no engineering - but I have 2 accounts with a handful of engineeres unlocked and minimal engineering, but both have done a tour of Guardian sites (which I find amazing) over the last year so have Guardian modules (and weapons) which provide power, armour and shield boosting, all for just a few hours play.

Which I'll do again...
I offered in all sincerity previously, will offer again :-
I'll gladly take your CMDR out to the guardian sites to collect blueprints and mats, then to the Crystal shards systems to collect raws, and you can tag along in a few Haz Res sites with me collecting the wreckage from my victims... (all those tasty mats!)
Do some missions for data and G5 mats and you would soon have a ship or two ready to face tough stuff yourself - from there the game just gets better & better to play.
Does anyone know the value of a nice egg in these trying times?
Last 6 pack of eggs went rotten. I'm just no big egg eater. Couldn't even say how much they cost.
I agree it is sad, but one things for sure whatever's on the roadmap will be more "Minimal Viable product" game loops with simplistic one-dimensional mechanics that once learned will add another grind loop into the game, that will likely introduce new bugs, will never be updated or fixed to even be a MVP in the first place, that will never be added or improved or introduce any variety or new mechanics or features and ultimately aid by adding an additional nail in the demise of such a promising game with all the potential that we the players can clearly see.
No wonder the shareholders are leaving the ship, they can clearly see its sinking due to the systemic problems with the management (Strategically, Tactically and Operationally) of this, and I'm pretty sure other, Frontier games. All we can do is make the most of what we have in the mean time and be the last to disembark if we've the tenacity to stay that long...
I both love this game and its concept since I originally played it on my BBC Micro back in 1984, the visuals, flight mechanics, variety and galaxy of ED are superb (even with their flaws) but I hate the way its been managed, developed & supported over the years and this obvious potential squandered by Frontier. But what can we do - nothing except stop playing and leave and exercise our buying power by NEVER purchasing another Frontier Development's game, anything we say or suggestions we make are (for the most part) ignored after all FDev know best....
Sorry for my rant, but I just felt it had to be said.
That.
Fact is, tech in general took a beating in 2022 across the board. All of them are down. From NVidia to Facebook (Meta) to AMD to EA Sports, they all lost a good bit of value.
Granted, FDev have been really hammered. They've lost over 60% of their value over the last year. But so did Tesla and you don't see people preaching that the end is nigh for them, do you?
I did all of that as a complete noob in a couple of days.
Oh yes certainly. Share holders are surely playing the game and studying the complaints on the forum/reddit/youtube, to revise their investment strategy in Frontier..!
Hmm, I thought I saw some Internet and news chat on the subject of Tesla, Musk and the future of the company! Likely as relevant as the forum complaints about bugs and the Frontier share price.
I hope the insufferable grind didn't kill the game for you!
