I like a lot this game.....but it has a big problem.... solo mode, group mode and open play can't be the same universe, they must be different universes.
It's really absurd, play the same universe with people you can't see, without any risk.... i can play solo make alot money and go to open play to fight or not without any risk...
What happend with pirates roll??? nobody go to play traveling full of cargo with the risk to be killed for players pirates at open play....

Please, make solo play like a single player at another server, cant be the 3 modes at same universe.

If froniter don't do that, this game go'll to be played only for carebears hidden at solo play, and never will grow up like a real mmo with a real inmersion.

Sorry for my english, i hope frontier do that...

Make this game forced PVP/Open universe say goodbye to a large portion of players. The ones that haven't already quit over the no offline mode anyway.
 
I honestly admire the old members who still bother to think and to post in threads like this, me, already I cba, but with each wave of new players the same 'issues' will continue to crop up and need explaining and discussing.
 
What it comes down to is the OP is mad that he can't sit around in a ship that takes a couple dozen hours to fit out decently by shooting NPCs at a nav beacon and attack & loot players in ships it took them hundreds of hours of trade runs and mining to work towards.

Right now I think it is a single player game with bad implemented cooperative system (private groups).. which is a shame for me that expected a multiplayer playstyle. :-(

You mean like this?

I think it should be strictly online also BUT it really makes no difference. There are so many systems it will be pretty dispersed anyway. But if they did there would be so much fear and distress from the fanboyz and the people scared of being interdicted and actually having their heart rate speed up the world would probably end. Hell just the mention of the co-op/multi/wings not working yet is enough to send them into a defensive tantrum. Or the Broken branch missions etc. Just fries there brain to think that FACTual evidence of broken portions of the game are a FACT right now and they need to be fixed. But all that's for another thread. Just thought I would drive the point home.

Did it ever cross you're mind ppl play solo for many reasons as well.
They want to play alone.
They have bad connections.
They have a bandwidth cap.
They tether from there mobile.
They use a dongle. (pay to use x amount of gig.)
it's not all about running away from the pvpers.

it's a better option for being light on there connection/bandwidth.
Offline would have been better,but are stuck with second best now.(solo)

So, if I'm reading all of this right, solo mode is still in the same universe(server) but cannot see other players? On top of that can effect trade lines and influence of systems? How is this a good idea?

Because, quite simply, it is a good idea.

Those who want to play solo are able to, if they wish.

Those who want to play in Open are able to, if they wish.

Those who want to play in Groups are able to, if they wish.

Those who want everyone else to play only as they wish, well, urm, tough cookies.

I am currently playing with a friend also but there is soooo much broken and just not there yet That what you see there is all you can do. NOTHING is shared nor are the missions etc. I know you know this stuff but the point is co-op isn't in the game YET. I am hoping for sometime in Jan. But I think I am reaching too much for that to happen. We have put hours of time playing together but now just do our own thing as it get very tedious and time consuming trying to take turns killing the targets and finding the wake and (getting into the same instance) and then if you miss its done no way to find the wake or my friend again. Anyway. Co-op is possible but only at the very minimal of the meaning.

Be patient young padawan ... it has only just begun.

Yes it has. That's why I said it really doesn't matter. I would love to see a lot more PC's in the universe. It makes it more immersive and fun. But really could care less. how others play. It was just my opinion that I think since you CANNOT play offline anyway (which I would like to have because I travel a lot). Might as well see everyone online. Would be more interesting. Have a great day and merry Christmas.
 
Someone answer me this ... is private group in open mode or is it like solo with your buddies. Someone told me that your still in open play but IDK.
 
solo mode, group mode and open play can't be the same universe, they must be different universes.

This makes no sense at all. People in solo or private group may try all/all. Make it so they can't and they won't ever try all/all, as they lose all progress. The cries of it is unfair makes me laugh what part of you can do it also are you missing? Unfair would be allowing some to do it but not all. The fact is as any and all can do it, makes it 100% fair and encourages people to try all modes and choose the one they like best.
