The Powerplay Report - Updated

jgm · Jul 9, 2015

Can't find my last thread on the powerplay report so here's a new one.

The Powerplay Report (as linked in my sig) has been updated for the current cycle. There are no new graphs, however please note that FD are investigating the numbers that came out of the cycle calculations and as such they should be considered provisional for now.

Because we're not allowed to have more than one Powerplay thread any more.

Without a massive overhaul of how the PP system is designed, all other powers will follow ALD's example. With no means to communicate or coordinate within the game on a massive scale, all powers will over-expand and explode.

This has been predicted from the outset, Fdev didn't do anything about it, and now we're reaping what's been sown.

It's almost as though the game was designed by a small firm with no direct experience of making a MMO.

Fantastic thread. I hope the moderators don't merge this one into the megathread as well, it'd be a shame to have it lost amongst all the noise.
