Don't Let Yourself Down

You've heard the annoyance. You've seen the . Now, without being predictable, say one thing that's good about this game. And No! 'it's not the game for you' simply won't do (you fool). 'Use your imagination' is also (come on unless you're really thick you must know that)

Ok, let's use the 'Use your imagination' model shall we.

Let's

Imagine you paid for something. Imagine that...

So, come on then. You're the one with the so called imagination. Come on then? What's the problem?

Come on then. Let's see it. I paid for it.

So. Where the hell is it?

Just show me.

Yeah, go on. Apologise for the inability to even stick two lines together.

Off you go then.

This game has so much potential. You ruin it with your stupidity.

Disagree?

I'll give it five hours

The flight model.
Combat.
The BGS.
The graphics.
The game play.
The community.
Bombing down a canyon in a Viper Mk. III.
Doing mad powerslides on a low-g world in the SRV.
Playing with friends.
Etc.

Imagine if the sun would be blue. Would it make a difference? No. Our sun would be blue and stars can shine in a bright blue colour.

Why I say that? Becuase I have no idea what I should respond to this thread.
Can you please tell me what your are trying to tell the community and what you want to achieve with it? Because I seriously don't know. But I know that stars can be blue.

I think they're upset about something.

Gotta say I'm a bit confused about the tone of the original post, are you asking in a "celebratory hooray" way or in an "I'm on the verge of losing it" way?

There is just so much fail here. But to answer your question. It is beautiful and runs beautifully even on my mediocre machine (GTX 770). Would you like more or is one sufficient?

No more drugs for that man.

I've read many funny threads on this forum, but this has got to be one of the top three.

You can't just waltz in here and aggressively demand anything, man.
Especially novel reasons why people enjoy the game (having preemptively dismissed all the regular and valid reasons that are easily visible everywhere on this here forum)

What's with the attitude?
I'm not sure if you know it, man, but you're coming across as kind of a jerk.
Stop it.

This about sums it up for me...

Runnybabbit · Mar 28, 2016

It takes me away from the reality of a pretty mundane everyday existence, from the worries and woes, and transports me to a place far away in an entertaining manner, for far less than 10-12 pints a night, with no hangover.. IN A SPACESHIP FOR GOD'S SAKE!!

Did someone lose a ship? Or get bored?

In Elite you get a ship. You fly it around and do stuff. Perhaps you'll like it. If not, try CoD. In CoD you get a gun. You run around and shoot stuff. Perhaps you'll like it

I like it 'cuz I get to fly a big spaceship with lots of guns and when I shoot at other ships they blow up and it's really, really cool.

And it annoys the hell out of my wife!

Any other questions?

I was feeling a bit hacked off as I lost my FDS last night.

So I spent the money on a Vulture tonight and spent my playtime smacking the biowaste out of pirates in a RES.

Quite therapeutic. And I made more than the rebuy on the FDS back in bounties.

TBH, you get out of this game what you put in. If you're not enjoying what you're doing, go and do something else. It's just a game at the end of the day, nobody is pretending it's any more real that star wars is. Just suspend your disbelief and dive in - you'll enjoy it a lot more that way.
