    Popular Ganking discussion in r/EliteDangerous

    From the OP in your link; 🤦 Plenty of room at Hotel California'... Seal clubbers are a fact of life and ED actually has very good options to deal with it. PG, Solo and block are all options and have been discussed in detail since Kickstarter. The best advice I can give is to be aware of the...

    Seriously, what's the point in open play?

    Have we reached the conclusion that this thread belongs in Hotel California yet? It should have been obvious from the beginning.

    My Elite is in maintenance mode 😜 Ironically it's why I'm enjoying it so much at the moment.

    What do the player base think of the multiplayer element of Elite Dangerous?

    ...if this changed. But it won't. Least not now. Alot of cmdrs love the solo experience. Alot of my wingmates never go into open. The "Hotel california" mentality rules supreme. Till that changes this game cannot truly be called a multiplayer game. The devs recently spoke about the possibility...

    PVP ACTIVITIES

    I am not against what moderation does. If I go into a thread and read a moderator saying not to talk about PvP in that thread, I respect his decision and that's why I opened another thread to talk about PvP. I simply posted the screenshot to reply to the fellow.

    Popular Ganking discussion in r/EliteDangerous

    Is it really not possible to have a serious and reasonable conversation about this topic without it devolving into a flamewar? I am quite certain that over the past 10 years people have suggested extremely reasonable solutions to the problem, something that would leave normal "honorable" PvP...

    Seriously, what's the point in open play?

    I always assumed it was a mod who coined the Hotel California. It is pretty much on spot. It invites strong opinions.

    Trust me, it didn't... Buit it is fun to turn a snarky comment around, isn't it? (straight out of Hotel California, wasn't it?)

    My goodness, I didn't realize that Hotel California could actually relocate. But all the residents are still in place! How considerate of the management. This is such a cozy place compared to what it was half a decade ago. One minor disappointment, Hotel California tag is missing ^^ How are...

    Here's the minimum that needs to be done to make this game profitable

    Another iteration of 'honestly not Hotel California' that managed to swan dive into a shipping container of land mines. Claim game would be 'profitable' if it was reduced to a barrel of fish for 'PvPers' and dismiss any contrary view point as 'irrelevant' whilst clearly having no idea of what...

    There is no one idea that will 'save elite'. What Elite lacks, and has always lacked, is Synergy.

    ...latter part being somwwhat facilitated by elite's solo mode. I have a lot of points I could make but I will be memed on/directed to hotel california so it's fruitless, I understand that it's too late at this point for Frontier to do anything about it. It is what it is, but pretending what we...

    Powerplay 2.0 deep dive - Frontier Live 27th March

    ...Given the "multi-mode" sweeping approach to the game's design I get their reluctance, and that's not even taking into account the Hotel California threads of yesteryear and today. Chief valid argument here being "it's not a PvP system, it's a player system allowing pErSoNal NarRatiVe!" and I...

    Open-Only in PP2.0?

    ...him, as you'd be able to play Open and his game just hangs if he tries. It has downsides, which I've posted before in the SOG / Hotel California threads. No mode is perfect. The modes are just a multiplayer filter. The game is the game regardless of the mode. So if something doesn't work...

    Open-Only in PP2.0?

    So where are all the "Open Only" hauler pilots posting then? Do you have links to hundreds of hours of Open Mode hauling videos? Because from what I have seen, it seems an awful lot like only the people with murder boats are the ones trying to force people into Open Mode. Of course, I could be...

    Why do people still care at all about clogging?

    The problem is how close these topics are related. CLogging (and liberal use of Blocking) is a symptom of Hotel California.

    Seriously, what's the point in open play?

    I see no problem with the thread. People are mostly remaining very civil and actually having a conversation (and to my actual surprise the thread hasn't just turned into a "let's bash ED" fest).

    Is FDEV the indisputable king of grinding?

    As often as it comes up, this topic really needs a nickname. We have Hotel California for the ongoing "open only" vs. "PvE Open" vs. "it's fine as is" conversation. Feels like a missed opportunity.

    ...with similar goals. That said it's become far more rare than I can probably justify. Also following a "greener grass" comment on the Hotel California thread I'm beginning to suspect the multiplayer option isn't actually worth bothering with. In the fringes of the Bubble or the Black there's...

    Seriously, what's the point in open play?

    This conversation has, almost verbatim, been had thousands and thousands of times. At this point, it is basically a meme, Hotel California and all. It's been a legitimate question, a cheap troll, a visceral argument, a series of jokes... it's so old that it predates every iteration of ED...

    That's true. I started playing about when engineers were introduced, and Hotel California was already old.
