The quote from early this year "We don't want to waste your time..." has aged like a fine wine.
BREAKING NEWS: GNOSIS STRANDED, GALNET NEWS!

We already know what's going to happen. I shall post the full text of the news article, in case people are just tuning in...
Clearly, this has not actually happened yet, and this article was supposed to go up AFTER the tick. This is HIGHLY unlikely to be rescinded, so it IS what's going to happen. Canonn had no idea about this, there WAS obviously no Thargoid attack in game (it can't happen as the Megaships are static POI's), and is pure fantasy dibbled up by some poor dev who was told to make something up cos we're not doing the jump.
And of course, the Gnosis won't be going anywhere until at LEAST next Thursday - it's highly unlikely FDev will make a special update just to move the ship to where it was supposed to be going. I'm expecting a CG for the usual crap which will naturally take 6 days or so to complete.
Such a poor way of covering their asses.

That's a bit hurtful and insulting, I mean, whatever have cats done to deserve such a comparison
Yes the players are a nuisance aren't they. Imagine if they just didn't care and left.
Not as fast as the guy that put up that article ahead of schedule[big grin]
It's up on galnet, so what you're seeing now is what'd you'd have seen tomorrow anyway. To be fair though, FDev still have time to change plans and retcon the galnet message as a hack by Far God cultists or something.

Just remember....Fdev knew they were going to do this to the players,the gnosis and cannon. They hyped it up, encouraged more players to prepare and go all the way out there, all the time knowing that they were going to "F" everyone. This is willful and intentional. It is a massive FU to every single player. Just remember this when they pitch their next paintjob or ship kit. They hate your guts and they prove it over and over. Don't support those who don't support you.

No, the gun has not been jumped, it was simply fired prematurely.
Its pretty much the only chance they have to save themselves from this disaster but I have seen nothing that makes me believe fdev cares about the player base of this game. They would rather play with dinos and rollercoasters
I'm not sure what people expect to do in Cone Sector FN-J B9-0 (and like two other permit accessible systems in the area) for FOUR weeks anyway. It's still Thargoids and it's still deep space.
Anyway, if it takes another week to get there, then maybe that will be because PF pilots are determined to travel. AEGIS has been broadcasting Gnosis location all week and no, I don't believe that organisation wants people to know what's in the Cone.
Thargoids confirmed, anyway. LOL.

Nah that was Frontier. They spoiled the event for thousands of commanders. It's already locked in. We just had the curtain drop early.
Welcome to Frontier's understanding of community led events. I'm not sure what else can be said. This is all they know. This is all they can do.
Yes, this is clearly a last minute decision to pull the plug. I suspect technical issues (or simply something isn't ready), but I am afraid that is a POOR excuse - after all, it was hyped, in planning for well over a month and tens of thousands of players have spent hours getting equipped and making the long trip to the Gnosis.
It doesn't really matter if nothing was actually going to happen anyway - the fact we've been denied the jump itself is testament to the contempt Frontier have for their Elite playerbase.
It should be Sandro. I mean, he's the gameplay guy, right?
When CIG messed up monumentally a few days ago (they decided to hire professional crew to film citizencon and charge for the livestream to cover the costs - not a smart move), Chris Roberts himself posted not once but twice to apologize and describe how he'd changed the plans. I'd hope that DBOBE would do something similar.
Yes us players can be troublesome can't we.
Please excuse us for expecting something out of a much anticipated community event.
An event I must emphasize that was a PLAYER run event, organized by a group of players. Must apologize for expecting to at least
have a decent month long expedition, that FD approved mind you, but it's us who are horrible.
Off topic but what does CIG Stand for?
