Yeah good luck with that. Its head in the sand for Frontier with their poor unpaid mods having to run around piling every other attempt to discuss this onto this one giant heap. Which ironically just serves to make this threadnought look all the more impressive.
The more this drags on the more I lose any respect for Frontier and crew. I would expect this behavior from the likes of EA or their ilk, but... bah, whatever.
Nice, closing threads as a damage control.
You see, if I were a mod here, I'd do the same thing. (I'm moderator/admin in... some... places)
This isn't containment. It's keeping the forum from turning into a mud wrestling pit.
Can we get some MOD to start suspending trolls? And I don't mean people who are unhappy because they cannot play offline, I mean the ones who have a full history of flame baiting,trolling and SC-fanboying and are taking advantage of this situation to dspread alarm and incite people.
Cleanse! Cleanse!
Mass bannings? Oh, that's gonna calm things down for sure! =P
if you intend to play on a notebook ? good luck with that !! if you intend to play on a laptop with a decent GPU, and you don't have access to wifi. Why not tether your laptop to your phone ? If you really want to play ED, you will find a way.
So you basically want to play in a dynamic universe simulator featuring 400Bazillion systems, where the only person who can affect anything in that universe is you?
YES! Thank you! Finally someone gets it.
I do own a perfectly fine computer and I have adequate internet access.
I do not wish to play an multiplayer version of Elite.
If my game
is affected by the actions of 10000 twits then this
is a multiplayer game in my book, not single player at all.
It's the same thing as simply being invulnerable by players in the multiplayer game!
Haven't any of you played X3? It's a single player offline game, it's great, does trading and stuff, but haven't you always wanted something like that, but an online version with a truly dynamic galaxy, with your friends and players affecting the world you see in ways you may not thought of?
No, I have not wanted that.
I do not need a teleprompter to tell me what to do and the X3 universe is perfectly capable of spawning unexpected situations. Especially if you throw mods in the mix.
I've played a lot of X3 and it has breathtaking modding capabilities - compared to most games.
(If you've been using any scripts or mods you may even recognize this name)
Most important of those (to me) are the "scripts" that can add a lot of interesting new events and behaviour to the game.
Also, there have been many polls about mult... oh, wait. Click this for
The X3 Online / Multiplayer FAQ.
But to save you some time: The majority of these polls / results was
against multiplayer / online.
First post after joining. Hard to believe you are not just joining the forum to troll in this thread.
Sad thing is there are many like this.... Some may be possibly legitimate but there are too many to be a simple coincidence.
I had never even registered on this forum before... until they launched this dirty nuke.
No doubt I'm a troll.
you still belive in an working LT Release? With a working economy? Created by a one-man-show?
There chance of it having a working offline mode is infinitely greater than with ED.
It's also moddable all the way down to the nasty bits.
(planetary landings)
Oh it's
quite possible with
good PG.
As you say though, the issue (like with stations) will be the content... and I suspect you may be right. I'll believe it when I see it. This whole episode has harmed FD in ways I don't think they're even aware of yet.
Quite possible? You mean... working?
Limit Theory Development Update #7
And this is really more of a tech demo. Colonies (landing sites) weren't even in the game back then.
It's a space game so planets will never be looking like fully colonised Earth. But be able to land on them and have them look like what you'd expect when viewing the landing site from space? Yup.
