Yeah it's good stuff overall. Engineers and Material Traders still need tweaks.

Yeah, I like it too.
A lot of the complaints about the engineering comes from people who have to undertake "another grind", which is understandable.
But from a recently returned player, the material gathering is an activity that I can combine with a lot of other activities (though I do miss the non-exploitable version of the skimmer missions for this), so the engineering progress comes quite naturally.

The planets are so nice in their new coloring. The way they are lighted and reflect is also different. It's like part of ED is new again. I enjoyed seeing the new ice textures, the darker shadows on dark sides of moons and planetoids..
Collecting materials is also more fun. The indication of material inventory with the new options makes it feel less of a grind and more of a relaxed hunt, knowing one can conveniently trade with the material brokers to get more of a particular material.

Somebody said there was cereal down here ....
Hey Frontier,
The OP got a ton of +REP, which you may or may not be able to see, but not much interaction, which is how we tend to judge a thread. Don't let that dishearten you. There's an interesting TED-Talk about how people gravitate toward negative discussions and thoughts over positive ones, as our brain is for some reason wired for this, and we see this often play out here in the forums where the negative threads explode and the positive ones quickly get pushed down the stack. I personally don't care whether my thread is popular are not, I just want to bring balance to the extreme negativity that boils up from time-to-time (and you all know that I'm not a koolade-drinking 'white knight'). So don't judge a thread's merit based on the number of posts alone is what I'm saying
If I find that TED-Talk, I'll add a link.

Oh yeah? OH YEAH?! Well, I like it even more.
I've been on loads of planets and not found a single cereal ! This game is broken
/ rant over
This is a bug. Send a ticket
As out of vogue as an unhysterical response seems to be on these fora these days, I agree OP.
That's the common mistake people make. The line actually is, "Give [the cereal] to Mikey..... He won't eat it he hates everything..... (Mikey eats and likes cereal) Hey Mikey!! He Likes It!"
Which is apropos because I was actually very disappointed with 2.4 on my PS4. So if I like 3.0, then it must be good!
