[Video] January update, was this what we ASKED?! & Fleet carrier delay...

[Stigbob]

You missed (or more likely conveniently ignored) the context, which was Stigbob having his usual dig at LEP purchasers. Followed by all the usual suspects from the previous LEP thread jumping in with the likes.

[Video] January update, was this what we ASKED?! & Fleet carrier delay...

Except there is no funky new stuff this time, it's just fixes. There are also some changes made. New states. Updates to ARX generation. Changes to the market behaviors for mining materials.

If you pop back and check you'll see that the actual context was you jumped into an obviously comedic and friendly exchange between me and another poster with your brusque demand for me to tell you how to go about buying things on the internet. After I've told you in the past not to rely on other people's opinions but to do your own research and then reach your own conclusions based on your own subjective preferences.

The most you'll get from me is I like game "X" but YMMV so check out gameplay video's and do some reading before jumping in.

EDIT : and play a demo if there is one or you have a mate with the game.

Nah, you asked him a snide question and he gave you an answer. You can try and throw "context" over it like a blanket to obfuscate things, but that's what happened.

Here, let's check out the instant replay:

Sensible research based on what exactly, on what Frontier say, on what people here on the forums tell you, what mods here say and community streamers?

Where else would you go for "sensible research"?

Watch a gameplay video with the commentary turned off or try a demo, that way you can judge the game against your own subjective video gaming preferences.

In ED's case I did both.

The usual non-answer.

Oh that's exactly how I said it was, okay. Your claim to context does nothing to change that.

Lol what a convenient place to stop the quote chain!

I mean I posted the quote above right?

That post you quoted is irrelevant to the exchange. If you think it's so important, quote away, do it yourself.

Doesn't much matter, anyhow. This thread's gone off the rails, as these always do - the videos never make for an interesting conversation, it's almost always poking fun at the ridiculous fake controversy.

It makes a nice change from legitimate controversy.

Are there any of those ?.

I've played for 1000s of hours and hardly seen any bugs. They seem to be a very rare occurrence for me.

Same here, I really don't get it.

Sure, I've seen a few bugs. Never experienced something game breaking though. Maybe it's just that I don't play 100% of the possible activities all the time and I am lucky that I always do something that works?

Well and I rarely play on patch day, maybe it's that.

But sometimes I get the feeling that the people who complain about myriads of bugs are searching the forums for bug reports, just to try them out themselves in order to be as annoyed as possible. It's either that or they must be very unlucky.

 

[Stigbob]

That's a firm 'no' from both of us then, nice to know we agree on something.

Its worse than that, a lot of the groaniest posters are long term ex-players who've only heard about the bugs second hand, possibly from other ex-players. There's not an awful lot of fact checking involved in it.

There's always somebody who doesn't read the thread and brings the conversation back to recycle other wrong opinions.

Great to see the usual white knights fighting the good fight. Keep it up champ. We all appreciate your valiant efforts, albeit in vein.

 

[Total_dogus]

Trying to compare that sort of thing with a few minor patch bugs in a video game seems a little insane.

I'd tell you to take a break from the game if you hadn't already rage-quit as you are obviously very upset and overemotional about it.

Lol. Do I seem emotional to you? I think, my dear man, you should pursue the addition of a sense of humour. You take everything so personally. It’s a game. Calm down dear.

Can you folk slow down a bit, I've ran out of popcorn

Go out and buy more. There’s way more to come. We’ll hold off until you get back to your seat.

I'm assuming you mean "in vain", but that's just more of that book-learnin' us White Knights are known for, I guess.

This thread has already gone over how the Open Letter asked for exactly what this update requested. There were laughs had due to the fact that the person complaining about not getting what was asked for 1) asked for exactly this in the open letter, and 2) posted a video about the January update that was made before the January update was even out.

I know you aren't overly concerned with any discussion and this is just a busy thread to scowl into. How did the game hurt your feelings today?

You are hanging around the forum of a game you don't play complaining about bugs you've never experienced and comparing that to a carpet pooping home invasion.

So yes, you do seem very emotional indeed. Otherwise you'd have been able to just uninstall and get on with something else.

You’re funny. My emotion at the moment is primarily amusement - because I do enjoy the forum from time to time. But you can entirely convince yourself I’m the one upset, if that feels like a win. Are you familiar with Vyacheslav Molotov? He was in the Soviet regime. Quite an interesting character who I think you might enjoy learning about. I see parallels that you may appreciate.

Edit - just noticed your little photo has a soviet sickle on it. I hadn’t noticed -happy coincidence!
