Do you ever think sometimes FDev are trolling you?

[Bob McBobblehead]

A few days ago in was trying the land at a Guardian structure site, but found it impossible to find a landing spot. After 20min I gave up and started to fly away then something showed up on my radar. I went to investigate and I found a Hauler parked on a mountain, the NPC was called Mountain Man.

That's not trolling. That's Frontier Comedy Gold.

Yes... yes I do.... they are always blaming me....me... sweet and innocent me....

Them too?
What did you do wrong in your last half dozen lives?

FDev sometimes lock me in a cellar and feed me pins.

I had this time when I came to the last leg of my long range smuggling run and an Anaconda following me jumped right in front of me when I approached the stabase entrance. *splat* No way to evade. Felt pretty much like trolling.

I don't think it is only FD that blame you...

Troll or hiding easter eggs. I don't know.
I have noticed just as I am about to give up trying to land. There often is a quick blue flash on the radar which vanishes quickly. The landing point must be the size of a pinpoint. Sometimes I see "unsuitable terain" but the guides for roll and pitch appear. Straightening them out gives you the blue circle and ship. Sometimes.

FD troll us all the time.

Spend ages waiting for a USS, and decide to jump away.

As soon as the FSD countdown begins, a USS spawns.

Or, you wait ages for 1 USS, and as you're about to drop, another one shows up.
Then you get disconnected.

And if FD aren't trolling me, my internet is.

Yep - just yesterday trawling through HGEs looking for PIs. First one in nearly half an hour, almost ready to drop from SC and I'm jumped by an NPC FDL. Knocks me half way across the system. I'm not generally a violent CMDR but took grim delight in plucking the mats from his wreckage... Grrr.

Don't worry about him, he's a cat and has plenty.

Pins ?, we'd have been overjoyed with pins.

↑ What is it with the first character a line below the next one in this forum? [mad]

 

[Deareim]

I do. Patch 3.0.3 is a good example.

 

[CMDR Carbo]

Yes, after every update.

 

[biohazard15]

Yes, they are.

You dont have to play the game for long to realize there are a few passive/agressives in the bunch. Which would be ok, if they could fix one thing without breaking something else.
