Remove UPKEEP, but make carriers destructible

[Vandaahl]

Don't try to actively ruin the game for everyone else just because you wanna "git guud".

So how is easy mode not ruining a game?

 

[Leper Messiah]

Elite:nothing bad can ever happen to me

Elite: It's a fricken GAME?

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Then ask for a hardcore mode switch you can flip when you log in.

It's called a sidewinder.

Easy mode is engineering

 

[Leper Messiah]

So how is easy mode not ruining a game?

So how is hard mode not ruining a game?

 

[CoyoteXStarrk]

So how is easy mode not ruining a game?

That's a disingenuous question and you know it.

 

[Vandaahl]

So how is hard mode not ruining a game?

You want to create infinite loops?

It is a game. A game where the potential of failure was advertised as a possibility, where the sandbox is a dangerous place.

Leave the FSS out of the discussion please.

Since its being end game content, and Frontier really wants it to mean something, let it really mean something then.

Remove upkeep, make them 1 billion a peace, keep the guns, but remove the not-destructible flag.
Let pilots clean up the 'sleeping' carriers.

Anyone game?

Well you are gunna have a hard time taking that pesky pirate out who is in Solo!

 

[Calteru]

...so, this another thread to unwatch? I'm here for conversations, not name-calling and personal feelings toward, you know, a video game.

 

[Leper Messiah]

You want to create infinite loops?

No it's all about perspective, from your perspective easy mode is ruining the game, for someone else hard mode is ruining the game, both extremes are bad......MIDDLE ground is the way to go.

Lol, if they hadn't build that snore fest, I would still be out exploring, and prolly asking here for the removal of upkeep

It is a game. A game where the potential of failure was advertised as a possibility, where the sandbox is a dangerous place.

.... where interactions with other players are entirely optional.

Like Mining for upkeep?

 

[Vandaahl]

Exactly!!
And I'm starting to feel things start to get out of wack with the "removal of upkeep"

 

[Godsailsaqueen]

No.

 

[Leper Messiah]

It is a game. A game where the potential of failure was advertised as a possibility, where the sandbox is a dangerous place.

failure is still there.

I'd argue Engineers did FAR more damage to consequences of failure or the lack of it.

 

[Vandaahl]

Like Mining for upkeep?

Would that be a problem? If you can work with the FSS, mining would be tons of fun!

 

[Leper Messiah]

Exactly!!

I'm ok with upkeep as long as it's off when I'm not in the game. And no forced scrapping of carriers.

 

[Cheese Helmet]

.... where interactions with other players are entirely optional.

Irrelevant to my point. In fact just reinforcing that the sandbox needs more danger.

can’t let the horse stop being beat though can you?
