This is what Maintenance Mode must be like :(

Its been getting more and more difficult to whiteknight recently, even some names who previously only posted to take the mickey are kind of admitting the FSS is sh... bad. Why wont frontier listen? Not only is the team failing to deliver but the management is failing to put this out of its misery and just when you thought you were getting carriers...ARX! lol. Remember ice planets?

Grabbing more straws I see.

As to carriers, I didn't care one bit about them anyway.
 
How many people need to buy a job to make it worth while? I assume they have whatever tools that means they take a texture and slap it on, 5 mins work. Sounds like a good profit to me.
 
I think its a testament to us how white knights have a such a miserable time here. As adults, intimidation via harsh language or that irony thing they do doesn't win them a point (like it would with late teenagers in other games) and instead triggers full frontal response assault. Also every time we try to get them back with their own tactics they cant handle it at all and pass out.

At the same time i think its important that without the white knights we wouldnt have anyone to spar with and would be boring.

But the real point is, if the game itself was in better shape nearly all the criticisms and triggered white knights wouldn't need to be made and that is always the preferred outcome.

If you want a tip: Stop looking for white knights everywhere and they cease to exist. Unless you really like imaginary stuff, but you can already have that without visting the forums.

Sorry my first real go was with Ian Skippy and i think everyone frontier happy is like him now. You make a very good point ;)

At the same time, just because you are not a white knight, doesn't mean they don't exist.

This is a good point. Sucking at game development isn’t a moral issue. Behaving like snake oil salesmen is. I said this a while back - they’ve been blessed with a very obedient fan base who put up with years of dire development and an empty, boring game, riddled with bugs...while still throwing money at FDev for the privilege. Easy money if you can get it!

I completely agree. If someone was speaking that last announcement to you in real life, what you think of that person? We're late but you asked for it so we're still angels? Im not going to treat frontier differently just because they appear with friendly manners on livestreams.

That's some serious tranferrence there.

Maybe because there are no white knights.

Just people with different opinions.

I'll try it:

That doesnt make any sense at all, the criticism that anyone would expect to be taken seriously is very articulate. People write pages of suggestions / feedback.

If anything, frontier still from their own statement, even to a few days ago claim that they listen and respond to feedback. Yet 99.9% of feedback is unaddressed. Hence people keep saying the same thing to the annoyance of you, people are more frustrated, and the whole thing is just sub optimal.

Actually 100% of feedback is unaddressed. It was reddit blowing up and an open letter. Frontier only respond when they're planning on "responding" even before they turn to engage the community. That's how its always worked.

Hmm. I seem to be having a great time in this boring mess if a game as seem to be a lot of other people.

Seems people have just different opinions and tastes.

Shock horror.
So much so you feel compelled to tell people who are complaining how much you don’t care about the things they are complaining about. It’s quite amusing because it’s so obvious you know we’re right. As long as you enjoy it.

These threads never trigger the so called white knights, so it actually makes a lot of sense.

99.9% of the feedback is contradictory. "Add the ADS again", "No, don't add the ADS again!", "Make the game Open Only", "No, don't make the game Open only". Now start a thread about a universal limpet controller and see how many people disagree with it. Zero. The best part, IIRC it is already on Frontiers to-do list...

Quite ironic considering that you think Frontier can't deliver anything but a boring mess and yet you are here complaining. It's quite obvious that you aren't here for a better game but just to annoy people. As long as you enjoy it.
 
Nope. At the end of the day they’re a money making corporation with shareholders and very well paid directors - much of whose bonus is a product of exploiting their customers’ loyalty combined with refusal to invest in the resource to reward that loyalty. The bottom line is the bottom line.

Don’t even get me started on the sheer greedy gall of asking for handouts to make the game in the first place. Issue equity you cheap .......
Welcome to capitalism.

Where did I say I didn't care?

And whether you are right or not is purely subjective.
