Ten times

Just a few more updates (it's easier to guesstimate time in FDev units of measurement) and I might be the first to reach Sag A in an Apex (unless that Turkish commander beat me to it).

You really must be fond of apex. You even flying your ships anymore? I got only like 170ly done at it, only to unlock engineer.

How exacly you plan to claim being first at Sag*A in apex? Total distance travelled and actually being in at Sag*A in apex is two diffrent things, I am afraid.
Those things cant reach this place, and as far I am aware, they cant go outside of bubble, and remote systems/stations outside bubble, dont even have apex.
 
We reached the upgrade 10, and Frontier seems willing to celebrate it as if those updates are about good things introduced to EDO. They are not. Those ten updates are clumsy attempts to solve serious problems, creating others in the process, and an absurd lack of coherence. There is nothing to thank Frontier for. They just (sometimes barely) did their job fixing a shame mess travesty of "full release" they created themselves.

EDO is now more stable, and the performance better. But still EDO "release" is sorely lacking relevant and engaging content, better immersive missions and a useful grinding system instead of a very aggravating (and useless) one.

Finally, imo EDO still is a huge disappointment. Frontier, by mysterious motives, decided to turn ED from an exciting exploration game to a boring and repetitive first person shooter experience.

Yes, we still have all 2022 to see if good things are introduced. But Frontier past record of poor ideas doesn't seem to confirm those expectations.

To the haters and trolls, there's a good motive for celebrations: this is my last post here (and it has a good chance to be censored). I'm done. I shall still play EDO -- I pay a good money for it anyway - and I still, against all odds, have hope that Frontier suffer a NMS's Hello Games syndrome and decides to give us a HUGE improvement in content, quality and transparency for free in the years to come.

Let's see. At least in my case, Frontier, I'll see what will happen to "once upon a time amazing" Elite Dangerous in silence. You're welcome. One less annoying guy to bother you, eh?
Maybe you could apply for a role in Software Development or Quality Assurance, you could be the one that can bring Nirvana top those who seem to always have a "glass half empty" theory. Let them get the game balanced and working as expected then maybe new "exciting content" will come. Patience young padawan !!
 
When did they do that? I appear to have missed it!

From the bits I've played with my game friends, I'm sure that EDO (the expansion, it isn't a game in its own right) is considerably more than just a FPS, YMMV, naturally.
How exactly is EDO not just a crappy FPS?

Because you can still do the stuff the base game / Horizons added to the game?

That is faulty logic.

Worth it just for the skins.

We have all been waiting for 7 years for a reasonably bug free game with enough content to keep people playing.

Reality and experience shows FD is not only not capable of that but I dont think they want to fix the game and make it great.
You can also do the stuff they added with Odyssey that doesn't require shooting.
I dont know of anything you can do in Odyssey that isnt FPS. What else did they add?

EVA? No
New non FPS content? Not that I have seen
New ships? No
Scanning flora? FPS gameplay

Im not even being sarcaastic, I honestly dont know anything added in Odyssey that isnt FPS based, thus making Odyssey nothing more than a crappy FPS expansion.
 
Do you have the expansion?

You are busy telling players who do have, and play, the expansion, what they are playing is not actually what they are playing, which is odd.
Actually the real problem is that I am dealing with people who dont seem to be capable of seeing my point.

Therefore, wont waste any more time on this :)

Odyssey has added a lot to the game in terms of experience. This is my perception having bought into the game via Horizons in autumn 2020 after Fleet Carriers were added.

Does it have everything people want? no

Is it the best implementation? no

Is it fun? I find it fun.

Based on some of your previous posts in this thread, I'm not sure what you specifically mean when you say "FPS". My understanding is that it stands for First Person Shooter.

Odyssey is definitely first person view and operation. That is the main thing it added.

Shooting is not the entirety of the on foot part of the game. It is a more prominent part, but not all of it.

I don't understand why you think scanning flora is FPS. Can you clarify that position?
 
I don't know if that's our man or someone who's taken over the name when "our" Bazmeson (and his friend) quit for good.

Further investigation required?
This is more crucial than Odyssey's performance, you're right. Peoples' beliefs are at stake. :D we must call support immediately, or even better, an open letter.

(but I had noticed the name again before Odyssey's release, after reading about him in another thread. He was active even then.)
