At the moment there are 9977 system/faction combinations in active expansion state based on EDSM data dumps (2280 in recovery and 9526 in pending). This is 108 more active expansions in 3rd records than on the beginning of December. The minimal difference is due to new discovery of old data and not because of changes ever since. Since the 28th of November there were no reports of new pending expansions starting, pending expansions progressing to active ones and active ones concluding.
There are many potential legitimate reasons why expansions could be frozen. Significant influence swings, almost exclusively upwards in many systems that challenged many player factions even in keeping expansions in check. The upcoming colonisation that might involve the necessity of readjusting expansions. The complexity of PP2 that could also add some bugs. All of these might be undrestandable.
That said BGS is an are where the hard and continuous efforts of great many commanders yield the results and satisfaction of the members of our community of communities. It is important to ensure that those hard efforts are directed towards a meaningful direction. For this reason it is important to see the reason behind freezing expansions and what to expect next. It is therefore kindly requested that the future plans regarding expansions to be revealed by Frontier.
