Just a fun fact if anyone is interested in psychology stuff.

I love the game but FD ignoring 95% of folks and caving to 1% makes me want to walk away.

Well, dang it already! Somebody nurfed my buff!!!!
That does it! I've had it with this game, I'm headin down to Walmart so I can get me a life!

Narrow minds think alike.
I wonder where people come up with these numbers.. lol
95 % want to play "this way".... The 5 % are ruining it for us...
Based on.... What?
Did you just pull that 95% of players figure out of thin air?
If you want instant action in this game it's actually pretty easy with no further updates necessary..
Just stay in the bubble and jump into all the instant action you want. Impatience and a lack of understanding what kind of distances are represented here make the game feel slow to you when in fact the developers have made travel ridiculously fast considering those distances.
I agree with earlier posts, some people just seem to want a different game. Call Of Duty / GTA players demanding that Elite be just as "fast" and "fun".
Anyway, the devs don't seem in a hurry to give anyone 10,000 LY ships, so wherever you got your numbers... They seem to be slightly off?

Walmart has everything you could ever need.
Yeah. I'd think they were the same person except for the grammar mistakes with the latter poster.
Even guns & ammunition (recollection from my last trip to one in salt lake city)
Elite D is having a good year of repairs, needed completion of gameplay modes, a bit late for those of us with more than 1000 hours but still valued.
We are in a bit of a bubble as no one is talking about the boom is high concept, space context games coming out over the next 4 quarters. Big publishers like Bethesda, fully overhauled releases by whoever made X3 and more. It’s no surprise that the Elite Team is buttressing/ defending their property; and they’ll need a lot of beefing up to weather the coming storms.
Gamers are fickle, even with the time I’ve invested in this platform- because of the scientific affectations of the Stellar Forge, the VR, the emergent gameplay evidenced by Expeditions and Huge private groups like Mobius, in a heartbeat a simulation-style property with copious cutscenes, MoCap based character animation movement-what youse call ‘space legs’ and VR could ‘woo’ me away.
Maybe not many of you, like dedicated counter strikers, you feel Elite is the pinnacle of the genre.
Fine, I want more Astronomical gameplay, more economic gameplay-not scavenger hunt though, because this can occur without getting into character movement, leaving the cockpit, and is likely to be easily implemented with the current game engine. CQC didn’t blow up and even FDev has moved onto their idiosyncratic strengths.
Think of the business, the competition and what Elite has that won’t be surpassed- in 3 quarters of releases.
What does the game have that no other property is implementing:
Galaxy wide travel, territory and exploration. The stellar Forge is a real coding feat. Max it out, how is up to youse commenters, but think of making that feature more accessible to more players not just NASA space-x obsessed types like me-uh.
Space legs are going to better done, huge sprawling detailed economies will be better done, ship systems minutiae will be better done by upcoming properties because they’ve avoided the Forge and a far ranging galactic territory, but not for too long.
Let that inform your conversation and you’ll be closer to what the developers are discussing in their big picture sit downs.
Now, how do I know that, hmm, how?
Consider ways to keep the game alive without huge cash infusions.
And stop sniping at each other, partly cause you’re so poor at it.
Funny not mean, your opponent has to be disarmed because they’re laughing at your comment, a bit anyways. If your brazen responses would lead to an immediate jackasskickin’ in person without the internets’ unassailable podium then they’re lame and need a bit more tongue in cheek, double entendres, parody, something.
Avoid false equivalency and insult, you already know this right?
Debating, toast master clubs...
Bloody Dinos.

Oh noes ... The 5% ers which the internet itself can confirm that are on effect being stroked and petted by fdevs, don't like it when someone else gets vocal. Well tough luck. Haha
Yes i do represent a silent majority... The majority that wants fun not spread sheet mechanics just cause you backed the game in kickstart.
So there's a little clique of 20 ish of you chanting the same tube... Big deal. I've got time and patience to prove you wrong cause I'm firmly convinced you're wrong with you nerf inducing winging.
You're the cause why everything gets nerfed... And you think it's all gonna be like this forever. Well I'm here to tell you that it's not gonna be like this forever.
Eventually fdevs will start noticing the silent majority.
"Git guud at it" is the single most dumbest excuse for nerfing fun game elements that I've ever seen in a game community.
You've got this faulty mental proces where you're incapable of understanding that just because something is available in game you don't actually have to use it so you don't actually have to cry winge and moan about it until it gets remove.
In fact is the epitome of irony when you say "it's elite dangerous, is meant to be hard" but then you complain that it might be easier for someone else which in relation to you it absolutely makes it way harder for you to compete.
That's the actual truth...
You 5%ers are the real weak players and are afraid of competition... For example you're afraid of competing with players that might have ships with infinite jump range. You're either too slow to adapt and would refuse to jump that fast and so would be left in the dust by all the infinite jump range users OR since you're stuck in your little limited jump range mentally you'd slowly be dying inside eating yourself with envy "damn all these people using infinite jump and i have to use classic jump range to maintain my macho appearance, i sure which i could infinite jump but then it'd be eating my own hat and admitting is fun, damn stuck between a rock and a hard place".
That is it.... Literally the mind process of ever single one of you.
Insecure and not strong enough to admit that you're wrong.
You've past the point of no return and can't admit that certain things would be fun....
You'd rather trash the game crying for nerfing me elements than admit you were wrong.
You're that sad that you're willing to drag everyone's fun level down just to match your misery levels.
I think cargo ships should have 10.000 to 1.000.000 tons of cargo, 50 m/s speed and require solar scoop for every jump and have 10 shield slots and 5 boosters and 20 point defenses.
And all other ships except cargo ships should have infinite range.
And every PvP aggression should put a bounty equal to 5% of you credits...5% of 1.200.000.000 credits...See you tough " git guud" players be so cocky when you're hunted and destroyed by 10 noobs in sidewinders. That's 5% every single time you attack someone in open play.
Yeah.. Let's make it hard like that.

What's happening with the other 4%?
This thread basically translates to "FD did something that I didn't like therefore I'm the 95%"
Good grief, what on Earth are you on about?
I guess that's possible.. I was never very good at making sense out of waffles.
I do like them with syrup and ice-cream though... mmm.. waffles..
It wouldn't surprise me that a hater that hates fun and everyone that wants fun isn't actually mentally capable of reading.
So here it is again. And you tactic of burying topics and posts you don't agree with the help of you few buddies and a few clone accounts isn't going unnoticed.

Oh I love fun; it just appears that what I, clearly the majority of the playerbase, and Frontier, consider fun (Elite: Dangerous) isn't what you consider fun.
And instead of simply moving on from the game, you create an account, hate on the game (that makes you a hater btw) and somehow come to the conclusion that the only reason you don't find the game fun is due to some apparently really powerful/influential 5% that can dictate to Frontier where their game focus must be.
That's some really whack mental gymnastics.
Blast it! Foiled again! And I would have gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you pesky kids!
So much deliciousness that is waffles.
