t5 Upgrades for the cost of a t1?
The nuclear option.
I'm well aware of the whole situation, I watched the panel that Ex had with you all.
Right but this is why I am so fed up with Frontier on this, they give us no content, re-brand CGs as some II rubbish, now we have hacks working for months on end... and this is without me even talking about bugs or exploits, Frontier at this point looks like a complete joke.
And I love Elite, but this is really testing my faith in the company now.
They want a gold medal, and a ticker-tape parade for exposing something that FD was likely already aware of. Some how people get the idea that FD, or any developer, has to meet their standards. We've seen it before. If FD don;t snap to and react like they want, they resort to bully tactics and lashing out. If FD just sent them a gold star for sending, yet another, video, this sort of tantrum wouldn't go on.
Will, I suggest that the community is provided with some numbers. It would be even better if those numbers are timelined. This would certainly restore the faith that the community is having a crisis of regarding cheating and punishment.
I agree it would be better to get more than a canned response but any response is still better than nothing.
Fundamentally there is a trust issue - you want to be able to trust that FDev are on the case. I'd like that too.
This is one example of a possible response. Please do mind that I'm not a fan(boy) of Ubisoft, on the contrary.
Now this is very encouraging for FDev and really supporting too ...
Not really sure what you guys hoped you will achieve with this campaign against FDev - but it seems that you were expecting just this official response to give them a couple more whips.
C'mon. The PvP people have always done their bit in bringing certain things to attention. Let's stop these personal attacks. Its the cheaters that we should be working against, not each other and certainly not the devs.
How do you feel when you get a canned response from support?
At least someone at Frontier read the thread...
Will's acknowledgement, while rather underwhelming, is about all I'd expect.
Nah, we want people using these scripts to be banned from the game. Nothing more, nothing less. We tried to do it quietly for 6 months with FDev but they did nothing about it. Unfortunately, this is a pattern of behavior for FDev which is why you see the skepticism of the response. Generally, when you get caught with your pants down like this, that necessitates a different response than the same canned one sent to everyone that submits a ticket.
Might be time for you to take a break from this post since you seem to let personal grievances drive your responses rather than what is actually happening.
Why would you expect anything more? FD are following their policy, just like they have through all of the other crisis. Acknowledgement, and an explanation that you won;t get a public hanging. Looking for special treatment is the trouble with this line of the discussion.
Good on the players that brought this to the community's attention. But, I'm not convinced FD were in the dark. Whipping up a fervor over and over again about how FD goes about theor business has become a cottage industry. It's perfect for getting 'clicks' and 'likes'. It's sure to be left open ended, and the outrage can be dipped into at any time. Just follow the Combat Logging debates. As soon as this outrage episode subsides, we're sure to get more of those.
This topic is now full of people insulting each other over pointless opinunes, Who has the gosh darn popcorn!
Right, they didn't satisfy your sense of justice, so you must punish them. I got ya.
No surprises here.
You worried?
Do you think it's reasonable for nothing to be done to a publicly available hack after being reported 6 months ago? If the answer to that is "yes" then I'm not really sure why you're here.
Sure. I mean someone might want to blow up my space pixels. Who wouldn't be worried?
Don't change the subject please. I asked you how do you feel after contacting support regarding your problem, getting a canned response and don't see any action taken after 6 months?
