[Video] Open letter from community to Elite Dangerous

I took the easy option and went out exploring instead of doing missions today. My alt might do some bounty hunting later, I've got a 'vette to equip and too few credits after buying half the bits needed...

Laser/Surface Mining works as intended as well, so that is also a valid option for money-making while bugs are being ironed out by FD. I have not done any Core mining yet though...
 
Alright for the people defending FDev in this thread- Is the current state of affairs acceptable? Updates break things and patches break even more things. Are the requests of the content creators to have a better, more transparent testing system that unreasonable after all this?
 
Unelected leaders telling us what we think, it's all a bit too much like real life to be honest.

Oh gawd. Keep politics out of it. And a bloomin' moderator too.... there's something I could say which would blow your impliction out of the water, but seeing as I despise bringing politics into the forums and have reported and complained about it many times before, I refuse to do so. :(

Tsk.
 
I started playing this game back in February 2017. I have to say that this is the worst I've felt about the state of the game since I started playing and this is the worst I've seen many in the player base feel. No "influencer" is making me think this way, that's totally how I feel. I am rooting for Frontier and I do not harbour ill-will towards them in any way. But I am not happy with where Elite Dangerous is in October 2019 and it is obvious that many in the player base feel similarly.

Here is hoping 2020 is a better year Frontier. 2019 will be Elite's annus horribilis for me.
 
Anyone who plays the game is a part of "the community" and a minority trying to speak for the majority are being just a little disingenious, don't you think?
No, that's not it. "The community" at the center of the discussion is the community of people who are upset and have added their voices to the chorus. You can either consider yourself a part of that community or not. If not, you're a part of the community who disagrees with the others. Congratulations, we're all part of a community!

And since the majority is silent by definition, you don't get to make the assumption they agree with you by default.
 
I've been franticly refreshing OA and Yamiks youtube pages (I hope to Joe Pesci they dont count as views) in anticipation of a new video telling me what to think.
I might join their Patreon

FLEET CARRIERS in December. That will be the upturn. You’ll see.

But... the community who are being vocal in attempting to represent 'the comunity' are still deliberately misrepresenting themselves as the greater community and express their wishes as if vocalised by that greater community - which is a deliberate falsification, surely?

Did you not defeat your own argument in the use of this phrase?
 
This is borderline trolling. Yes, I've seen a few of these people come and go, but most people who are frustrated with the game only want to see their frustrations addressed and fixed. They get no joy from their current misery, rather they want to be happy with the game. I wanted to be happy with shadows, and now I am! But I still feel empathy for those who suffer from very bad shadows (and now screen tearing) on the consoles.

That's your problem - you lack empathy.
That, summarizes this century. :(

Nope.

They're making no claim to speak on behalf of everyone. They only claim to speak for the people who agree with them. That is their community.
