what is it with people FLY PROPERLY do not touch any other ship with the amount of posts on this its clear people didnt give a hoot about flying correctly because they were immune from penalty well now your not fly properly and you will be fine

What the developers are saying is that if you have a 10 wheel truck and hit a bicycle you will explode ... it is nuts the vipers should get out of the way in the letterbox ...
 
Yes, it looks like Frontier screwed up on this one.

Expect a hot fix, perhaps as early as tomorrow. But, more likely, Thursday or Friday. And, expect a lag in support responses as these get ticketed.

Yet you have time to post on the forum.. frequently.

How can you win an argument when you're not worth listening to?

i got ran over to day crossing the road at a dangerous point its not my fault its the cars and road they need to sort out i wil cross tomorrow at the same place i wonder what will happen?
 
and you need to see a full stop to take a breath !!! pfft
What did my English teacher tell us: "You are allowed two exclamation marks. Per life."

Another one, this time from great Sir Terry Pratchett: "Multiple exclamation marks," he went on, shaking his head, "are a sure sign of a diseased mind."
 
no is not the player fault the bug exists it is the player faults that they still rush about scraping and bumping even though they know about the bug

and you can tell when you win the arguement the poster starts on grammer i dont have time for it on a forum

No, I beat you with my actual argument, me pointing out your terrible GRAMMAR was just driving home how stupid you are.

its better than a poster who post about something he knows nothing about ? and im not the one crying over millions of cedits lost in colisions when they really are easy to avoid

Try flying an Anaconda with 10 players trying to dock/undock at the same time.

This is not a serious issue for small ships but for big, its really serious.
 
For me the direct collision is fine, the problem occurs when you grind against other ships, prerry much an insta-death.
 
im not the one trying to compare real space flight with a computer game the simple thing is if you fly safe and correctly you will be fine


That's easy to tell. Comparing real space or real world with the game is out of the point. For example, flying the Conda would be a lot more complex than it is now, but then it would be like Flight Simulator and not like Elite Dangerous. Probably with half an hour of pre-flight checklist.

Having your ship insta-destroyed for scratching a surface (given the fact that the ship has shields) it's simply not acceptable, not realistic and not funny. It is clearly a bug, since developers have already told it is not intended. So yes, be careful and you will be ok, but what if a Sidey or Cobra scratch your ship?

I don't get the point of making such statements. It is a broken mechanic that needs to be fixed, that's all.

and you dont get the point dont rush take your time you know theres a bug it will cost you and you still rush about doing the same things expecting a different outcome

It is also an issue for smaller ships, a small grind on any big ship and you're dead.

What are you talking about? every time I have been hit it is by an npc kamakazi --- I am flying into the letterbox with my type 7 after checking my sensors for traffic when suddenly a npc type 9 is coming right at me ----full reverse to get out of the way. wondering where he came from. another time I'm carefully flying into the letterbox with my Asp on a rare run and a player cobra makes a sprint past me and bounces off the opening and in --I didn't take any damage either time but with full shields a small brush shouldn't result in death of your ship.
What is happening is crazy --- You work hard ---toil for hours trading to be able to afford a better ship only to lose it and your expensive cargo because some other player or npc ship brushed up against you ---if that is the case what is the purpose of shields in the first place ---might as well use the compartment for cargo.

Like a lot of the others ---I am not going to play tonite, or I will buy a sidewinder, so I won't lose much.
I have been watching the 1.1 beta threads and not liking what I'm seeing ----going boom because you get bumped while docking will nerf trading, going boom because you fired your lasers too long will nerf bounty hunting, nerfing a 200 million credit battle cruiser back to a simple trading vessel . It seems that MB and FD is trying to see if they can get people to quit. yes we need things fixed, like friendly fire bounties ---point defense getting you killed while docking because of some griefer, and a host of other bugs but this is going too far.
I've read several post where they say the devs don't read the forums ---If that is the case then FD has no idea how much they are p ing off the community, where people are about to give up on the game. I have been playing since October --I love this game, but it is hard still for me to do things ---- now it seems like I'm on a tight rope and one false move and I'm back to start in a sidewinder

i agree but the answer is still simple dont scratch anything

No, I think we should probably take to heart what he has to say. I mean, he is a backer after all.
Flying Safely would obviously allow us all to avoid any distress from game design/implementation decisions regardless of what parameters might have changed. (And regardless of whether they were even communicated!)
Besides, anyone who has put that much time nightly into learning to be so careful can obviously teach us all a thing or two about how to never be impacted by anything unexpected.
I'm first in line to consume the upcoming lessons available, and look forward to never again being caught in the trap of "doing it wrong".
Lead on, Micky!

There's something dripping from your chin... wait, that's just sarcasm.

Bad for the liver, though.

It's nearly impossible to not scratch anything. I don't even play online and this is impossible..

Sometimes I am fighting Wanted ships and I am moving at a steady pace in a straight line and an authority vessel rams be from who knows where (I never even see them)
