Should I demand a permit issued to me from the latest CG? I'm in the Top 10% (but supporting Jupiter) and have been very busy blowing the enemy ships up...
Frontier: give the FSD to ALL players, regardless of whether they took part or not

How dare you deny me my simple wish. I'm going to get my 10 year old sister to look into the legality of all this.
Irrelevant only because it doesn't support your argument.
It's not a level playing field now, making the CG modules available to all doesn't change that.. And wouldn't even come close to doing it.
Sad that FOMO is so hard for some..
I didn't do that CG, so I didn't get the FSD, but as I've said previously in this thread I don't think that it would be fair to give everyone the FSD. If there were an absolute necessity to more widely disseminate that FSD, I'd suggest it get done as a tech broker unlock, which the CG participants would have already unlocked, but the rest of us plebs would have to "pay for".
Same goes for Legacy engineering modules.
The question is, if everyone is going to get the modules, why bother with the CG at all? The CG is, apparently, entirely irrelevant to the modules, one side is going to win every time, everyone gets the module, just give us the modules and forget tying them to the CG's! In fact, may as well cancel CG's altogether since they don't mean anything anymore!
There's modules (special weapons) in this game that you will never get because they no longer exist but remain with those that bought them in beta, that's just the way it is.
You missed a CG, that's game life. How many CG's do people miss when they stop playing? Do we just give everything to everyone?
You have a module I don't, it's not fair. Just deal with it
fdev add stuff to make people happy
this makes other people unhappy
so fdev try something else to make people happy
this makes other people unhappy
repeat until game expires
Might as well just remove all gameplay and add a giant "I win" button in the middle of the screen too.
Seems to be what some folk want out of gaming these days.
Fdev can I get elite in combat please if your giving out unearned crap.
There was an extra long range FSD tied to a CG a while back, most useful to explorers, except all the explorers who were out and about exploring couldn't get back to get it, but did we all come on the forums demanding it be given to us because we were a long way away? No, but for some people this seems to be an issue. I'm not sure how them not being able to play the game or get to the CG location or have a working PC at the time becomes an issue of unfairness on FDEV's part but that's the way it appears to be!
Keeping legacy modules ingame was just an utterly bad decision.
I never said I was talking about myself.
I'm not even talking about legacy engineering modules. There were specialised weapons from very very early in the game that you could simply buy from certain systems that were removed from sale at the start of gamma IIRC, if you had them though you got to keep them.
I didnt say you were talking about yourself, its a general observation regarding people wanting everything to be equal. The drive isnt that much use anyway to be honest, the 2 second spin up time is next to useless.
In an ideal world, the decision to participate in a CG would not be depend on the individual reward for each CMDR, but on the results of hte CG. Like we had with Obsidian Orbital or the CRs from Palin.
And this is a good thing?
It's a similar thing.
A good thing would be me being able to fit 5A prismatics on my Cutter
For someone else would be a lighter 8d sensors
Or an exotic frag mod...
But that ship has sailed.
While for the FSD, there is still hope since they created a precedent with the tech broker missile unlock
Then why are you argueing against it, using highly criticized grandfathered modules as an example?
Heh, and I could get rid of my legacy thermal resist prismatics and put in reinforced biweaves instead. If only Sandro's promise of 10% increased optimal mass coming back as special effect had been kept.
Surely the best solution is to make such modules available later, via an unlock that is much more difficult than reaching the top 75% in the CG?
That preserves the value of the CG reward, it's much easier to get the module. But it doesn't forever lock-out players who weren't around at the time.
