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

I mean, c'mon, it stands to reason that all changes I don't approve are being driven by a vocal minority of whiners. If you don't believe me, the vast majority of a growing body of evidence supports this as simple common sense.

Could you please supply the readers of this thread with this "growing body of evidence"? No seriously, can you. It would make it easy for everyone to undertsand that you have a point then.

However I would suggest the OP has the right idea. Don't like the changes?

Then walk away and leave the game to the people who want to play it.

Still here? Then it's just hypocrisy and trolling.

That's ironic... A comment dripping with arrogance declaring "stop sniping at each other" followed by a snipe to the tune of "you're so poor at it".

But sure, in your own way, you're making sense I suppose.

Must be a UK thing.. the whole online professor of human nature thing. lol

Hahaha, well that didn’t work : )

Canada: logs, chainsaws, eagles, snow shovels, 4 Wheelers, bears + recycling bins, shotguns, gardens, whiskey shacks, guitars , books and snow.

Pack your bags, we’re going on a guilt trip.
Nah, I’m stayin’ here.

I don't care about adjustments to ships I don't own. I don't care if other people have a bigger jump range than I do. I care about playing the game. So that's what I do.

Amen to that. Well said.

I'm fine with people walking away but just do it; don't hang around here telling everyone who wants to play the game how pathetic you are.

I'm meeting some friends for breakfast at IHOP tomorrow morning. Thanks to this thread, that restaurant is going to corner the waffle market. I'm ordering all the waffles. Gonna need a conveyor belt.

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.

"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. "

I think you're a raving lunatic.

By the way, did you consider the possibility that rather than this being some hideous cabal of fun-hating people and clone accounts, what you have here is just a bunch of individuals who don't actually know each other at all but are all just equally bemused/amused by your meltdown? You really need a keyboard break to regain some perspective.

Also, clone accounts get banned on here, so just report the ones you think are clones if that's worrying you. I doubt you'll see anybody who commented in this thread mysteriously vanishing as a result if it though.

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.

Let that inform your conversation and you’ll be closer to what the developers are discussing in their big picture sit downs.

Avoid false equivalency and insult, you already know this right?
Click to expand...

Someone pointed out on the forums recently during the pre-beta 3.0 infants' firestorm (and possibly quite rightly) that the developers are not going to wade through any thread that is basically a bunch of subjective, falsely self-entitled, click-baiting, trolling, insulting, whinging, emotional hooey.

And why would they bother? Who would want to sit around all day and read a whole load of unsupported codswallop?

Considered and constructive criticism? Bring it on.

Maybe they want players like you to "walk away?"

Perhaps they just don't care? Players buy games, some play for a while and drop them and others fully invest in them.

This game is not for everyone sure; it's just the whingers can't be honest with themselves.

You pay your money and you take your chances (so to speak). If the game doesn't suit someone's playing style (or lack of it) it's really not FD's issue.

Pay and play; FD own the IP and it appears, at least to me, that they are continuing to develop that IP.

Well, I agree in general. My comment was more about being facetious than anything. I play ED because I enjoy the game, stop playing when I'm not feeling it. Start up again when I feel like it. Small things I don't like about ED don't 'break the game' for me. Same as anything else in life. I'm in my 40's, life long gamer, and it wasn't until I joined these forums that I realized people who are playing a game that they don't enjoy, genuinely feel entitled enough to believe the game should change to suit their singular play style or time-restrained lifestyle. It never occurred to me over the last 35odd years, that if I didn't enjoy a game, it was too hard or found part of it not to my tastes, I could simply throw outrage at the devs of the game and wait for them to cater to me.
