Why nobody thanks Frontier for the recent patch? For the 1st time they LISTENED TO US and made changes that we actually asked! So: THANK YOU FRONTIER

See, we finally found something we agree on !
But I agree with you! Some parts of Elite are broken, the devs are not listening to us, I have a lot of issues (clipping, lags, slowdoms, decay, crenelage, pops...) but my point is: it is not AS BAD as so many players are pretending.
 
I like the FCs.
Emergent gameplay : ✅
Mobile base : ✅
Big trading tool : ✅

You shouldn't be negative like that.
So now I'm the negative you see? ;):p I meant, ok it adds stuff, but it was really not a priority compared to a lot of stuff that has been out there for years...

What if it was a different perspective ? Almost like, plz bear with me, it was because we were different people ?

Just speaking hypothetically.
Sorry, did'nt get your meaning?...
Ohhhh, a triple-elite... Wouah, so impressive... Please my God, can you tell me how to...? Oh wait, I'm triple elite for years now, I forgot, maybe I should use a print sceen to remember (and show-off to newbies).
I just wanted to say you are "only" a triple elite. I'm elite 4 in trade (half way to 5 !). So technically, it seems I beat you on one of your elite.

Mmm, but I did not say that to you, did I? Oh sorry, it was you? So you hid your print-screen? :LOL: That is actually funny. If you want to play that game then I'm on my way to Star Elite exploration, but I mean, grow-up...

But now you say it is a matter of perpective, then, I have the right to think the game is not that broken, have I?

As has already been concluded, that depends on what you are doing in the game and what content you are playing.
Most of the recent complaints surround odyssey and odyssey content, which you have already said, in regards to the FPS portion, that you have no interest in.

Lets take the shield percentage for a moment (or again), something they listened to and added, something we "should thank them for", why did they add this?
Simple, they added it because they took it away from the role panel, due to a redesign of that UI. So, they added it back, but in a new location that is indeed more fitting.
So, in essence, they rectified a problem they caused to begin. The same is going for the outfitting UI and other areas.

I don't feel I should be saying "thank you for fixing your broken product" that cost me real money, one that really shouldn't have been released in the state it was anyway.
They should be thanking us for sticking with it and hoping they eventually get it fixed to a state where it should be.

Look at the patch notes for the last few patches, they are huge right... Great work FD :) But hold on a moment... They are huge! That is how bad it was released in, that is not something to be proud of, but within those patch notes, there's tiny little things like "(Stay with me...)" which to me is saying... look at how impressive these notes are guys.. we are still typing, its awesome.. and that, to me, is a bit of a slap in the face.
 
I mean, they've implemented quite a few changes in the UI that are exactly what we asked for and what most people (including myself) complained about. Why don't I see anyone saying that it is nice? I mean, they deserve the praise!

Let's say you bought a phone, but you noticed it was damaged when opening the package, so you send it back to get it repair / replaced. Do you say thanks? I mean you could, but fixing their product is also expected from them. Oh and it's also not fully fixed yet.
 
Busy work keeps us busy and frequentig the forum. What more to ask for. Oh cupcakes, cronuts and schnitzel. Besides of that? A pool in the garden, expensive dress and jewelry for the wife and some selfesteam. But beside that??? It's ok.

edit, bakery:
I think the update resembels a decent quarter of a cup-cake. Should I thank someone for it, or just have it? I think I'll just have it.

I see your point and you are right, but I mean, they've fixed it... We can't simply flag what dosen't work and then never ever appreciate the work they do to fix it. Launching such a game NEVER goes smoothly, there are always gliches, so I didn't expect it to urun smoothly at first, that is maybe why I'm less sensitive.
 
Okay, OP, was fun while it lasted, enjoy your game and do us a favor next time opening a thread? Please don't put your hole message in the title, thanks and o7

Gold star for this!

Ummmm, I don't believe your reply had the slightest thing to do with my post? Unless I am so amazing, that my hands have taken over on their own, and are belittling you without me even being aware of it?

I was going to reply on a different topic, but I actually can't remember what my other post was about, so I'll stick to what I know, especially being the total gaming legend that I am. So, wth does your reply mean, I genuinely don't get it?

I'm stuck trying to deduce the link to your amazing frame rates, and other people's game ranks? Do you get better fps as a triple elite? Maybe this is the answer to everybody's issues - they just need to git gud.

Perhaps you can explain how your fps are so high, in lieu of your fps numbers, I'm sure lots would like to know - pray, tell us the secret to this?

"Perhaps you can explain how your fps are so high, in lieu of your fps numbers, I'm sure lots would like to know - pray, tell us the secret to this?" - I will: I upgrade my PC every year, because technology evolves, you know?

And also, as I said: I don't really play FPS, which is the crux of all issues. I totally agree FPS is broken, BTW.

I'm pretty sure it is this:

This is what I think: They don't deserve to be praised when what we asked for was to fix something that they broke in the first place.
They shouldn't be asking us for a pat on their back.
They can pat each other's backs internally but don't show us doing that. And boy, oh boy, the Development Update #1 looked a lot like they were doing that, didn't it?
 
Thank you frontier for giving me the chance to explore new horizons ! (get the pun?)
Of anyone wants come pick up my stuff. Sadly i cant even give away my game codes from steam.
