Allow use of pre 3.3 Advanced Discovery Scanner

I still have to go to the BIOS before boot to switch. So sorry, you might as well use a boot loader. Cause you still have to reboot to change.
A boot loader is the best option. This is just a different one.
False - the FSS amalgamates the process of ADS and near-body scanning thus simply adding the ADS would not actually make the FSS useless since they do not perform the same function, there is overlap but that is it.
You think? How come they didn't during the beta period, before the feature was formally launched?
You should have seen the scowl on Adam Woods face in the livestream when Will asked him about the fss.
I'll buy a ship skin if they fix this (type 7 tactical on my original account specifically).
71 pages on the thread. Countless email notifications and I still don’t understand why people are still stuck in the past about this.
I never had the ADS and I don’t miss it.
It is constant amazement to me, the number of people that say they are unhappy with this game but hang about on the forum telling everyone how bad it is.
If you don’t like the game stop giving frontier your money and play a game that you do like. Rebel galaxy is nice and I hear they have done good things with no mans sky.
If the game isn’t working for you, You have to let it go.
If I’m in a relationship where I feel the other party has changed for the worse, has spent my £20 investment unwisely, or doesn’t appear to care about my feelings then I end it, and move on.
I had no problems moving on from fallout 76 and that cost me £60.
If you are so unhappy then just go.
Ok these are your serious options open to you-
Suck it up
Become a majority shareholder or get a job at frontier working on elite.
Stop playing this video game.
I’m tired of this thread now. So what I’m going to do is unsubscribe from notifications and it will cease to be an issue to me.

That is irrelevant - there are people that do not miss the ADS per se but rather the gameplay that was facilitated by it that was fundamentally ruined by the introduction of the FSS given the removal of the ADS.
The key issue here is that FD breached their own mandate of building on the past by not catering appropriately for those that preferred the near-body scanning based method of body discovery. Further to this, pre-3.3 existing exploration data seems to have been either incomplete in being ported across or completely purged - I know that I have lost access to ALL the handed-in data that I had accumulated since I created my account. I have an Elite exploration rating (gained mostly through various exploration trips) and should have had at least some discoveries in the in-game encyclopaedia but instead there is only the reported stuff.
As a CMDR that has been playing the game for a number of years (since the Wings update) and paid a lot of real world money and time into it, I feel FD have breached the trust that some of the community have placed in them. Implementing something along the lines of the SMC proposal detailed earlier in this thread would help to address that.

Yes... they pull my ears forward so I can hear better!You have glasses for your hearing?
Your reply is a complete and utter waste of your time... it adds no discernible value and if I were as disinterested in the topic I would simply turn off notification about it... seeya.
you don't miss what you never had?.....no bleep sherlock!!! Pointless reply.
Now there's a view that hasn't been considered, Now, off you go you'll be late for school!
Apparently You did not read the first post in this thread. We are not saying the FSS is bad, quite the opposite. You don't miss the ADS because You never had the opportunity to use it and don't know it had it's advantages over FSS if You played certain way. It made exploration much more efficient for certain people.
As explained in my post, allow me to quote the crucial information:
It's "Suggestions" subsection. It's our right to post a suggestion. If You are unhappy with it however You can leave the forum.
Please see post explaining this further.
Also, regarding You not understanding what people are missing in the ADS:
1) it's already been explained countless times
2) You, Yourself stated that You never had it, maybe that's the case
This thread is targeted at players who are missing said feature, who played the game pre 3.3 more than new players.
Aren’t you a bit new to be a militant white knight? Hope you’ve been introduced to them they’re well matched here. Also reddit is over there.
I never knew Glassfish, and I don't miss him.
What I meant was I wish I could run 2 operating systems side by side and choose which functions to use from whatever OS I needed at the moment. Mixing the FSS with the ADS is on the same order as running 2 OS's side by side. You'd need to relog to change it. Well, I guess you wouldn't have to, but having 2 different types of discovery scanner (notice I say Discovery Scanner as opposed to mapping or other specialized type of scanner) side by side just doesn't seem workable to me. Yeah, you could have 2 binding for it, but I would rather them work on adding a binding for SC Assist before they fix what isn't broken. And there are a whole lot of other things they could be working on besides this (and even my SCA binding request). Like atmospheric planet landings, space legs, etc.

Firegroups.
You can run 2 operating systems side by side, actually, you can do that with 4 of them.
I prefer Bassfish.
