Elite Dangerous is the Largest Empty Sandbox Ever Made

Don't be so quick to dismiss that list. Some of it could be worked into Elite and fit quite nicely.
- Clans / Guilds is just an official group of players. Like any other registered social group or club, it would fit in the lore
- Manufacturing would give a reason besides RNGneers or FSD boosts to use the SRV
- Small player owned structures out in deep space would open up new game play as clans need to move stock / equipment that way and could be a nice group project to build a small outpost away from the bubble
There are ways to get some of it in while holding to the Elite universe and still being an individual. You could also do this in any mode, so Solo players could work towards an outpost either for themselves or as part of a guild / clan
Oh yes, more emergent jump-honk
You know guys, the decision was taken and we will have guilds, player driven economy, player owned stations etc. It’s a matter of time. You know why? Because FD has all data. Your community, beside how vocal is, is not profitable. With ultimate ship ASP, how much have you spent in frontier store? Now take a look on some SDC video. A lot of ships, all of them painted, colored weapons and engines, ship kits. MMO players are buying cosmetics for a lot of ships to look cool in the eyes of others. Most of you have LTEP, one or two ships and you play in solo.
You are certainly filling the 'what do assumptions make...' void beautifully.

That's weird i've never seen you in-game in the last 3 years. Are you sure you are not hidding in solo? PVP on the forums ain't part of the real game brah.

It is for the majority here who can't even dock.
I'm certain of it Sole, was on for three hours yesterday evening, no 'brah' action though not even from the missus!
And how many others playing this game have you not "seen in-game in the last 3 years"? What does that even matter?
With P2P instancing it's possible there's a great many people you haven't seen. Why does that mean they're all "hidding in solo" as you put it?
Hey, I'm bang average and I can dock like a pro, bet I could even pop a parked up ship if I twied weally, weally hard!

Only 17 points to go. Come to me my forum brothers and sisters!
If this directed at me I can easily prove you wrong, if its not directed my way - carry on.
Seriously, what is this schtick you keep uttering about docking?
Thats nice, I wouldn't know, never shot at a parked ship.
Docking computers are OP. Nurf plz.
It was partially directed at you because at the time of that post folk were discussing the difference between PVP and popping a parked up Asp E. You brought 'skillz' (facepalm), into it at that stage so I'll ask you again, what skill is there in popping a parked ship or a 4 on 1 FDL wing gank on a T6???
Noooooo, give me the repz. I'm moar better.
This doesn't require skill, never said it was. I ussually talk about pvp content where I mention skills.
Trade routes would be a difficult one, with external tools calculating profit per tonne and shortest routes from Data from players,
As fast as you find a route, it's already advertised to more than enough other players that it is dead in a few days.
See while people harp on about player own bases, and I'm not opposed to them if folks want them, then I'm happy to throw my support to the idea (for what it is worth).
Fixing yourself to a location seems like a bad idea to me if your primary income is from trade. As you may have to keep moving to match the new trade routes.
Now some sort of clan/guild carrier ship that could follow CGs about or move to the latest trade routes you want to work would be nice.
Then your skill comment was completely out of context at the time of the discussion, thus I pulled you up on it.
To be brutal his mode choice is a lot less likely to effect your chances of seeing him in game than you having quit playing months ago, or have you come back now ?.
