A plea to FD Open letter & farewell CMDR's

[choices]

Agreed, nav restrictions? they can only follow the route you give them? but i was thinking bigger, imagine a wealthy mining player in need of a competent security force. you could find the job on the player generated bulletin board. right next to the regular bulletin board.

Player generated missions. I like that. Never even thought about it.

Although how competent is a security force if new players who never flown a ship bigger than a mkIII is going to do in a Python or larger ship. Plus I would hate if i mined and got some people to cover my back, in my own ships, and then either have them not know how to fight or turn on me. I guess it would make the game interesting.

I'm surprised they allow this post to stay. Most forums I'm on close these immediately as they tend to lead to flame wars.
They being said, sorry to see you go but posts like this don't usually yield results.

I can't see any flaming on this thread at all....

It's because we're special (needs)

yeah it would be a messy affair implementing something like that incorrectly. off the top of my head players would have some kind of info card letting others know how skilled/trustworthy they are. how many player contracts they completed etc. but also safety measures, say your security tries to rob and kill you, they are forced to cover the bill for your ship. or something along those lines. i wonder if FD have brain stormed this line of thought?

OP you may be in luck... during the Horizons season there will be two note worthy updates ... the Star Citizen update and the No Mans Sky update. Unfortunately they are paid updates but the features we all expect should be available in one of them.

Grind on Commander..

I enjoyed the "enter the game from any ship location" one there most......

Regarding your reply reference having a choice of which ship to load up and take out. Just having it as an option does not mean you have to use it buddy.

I don't know about that .. people given the chance will tend to take the easiest route and I don't like the idea of start in any location either really, unless it's very (and I mean VERY) grounded. There are good reasons for limitations sometimes.

Ship transportation yes, even potentially Commander "transportation," (over a period equivalent to the journey in your quickest Asp/Conda taxi) or even, choose where you WILL start next time you log in (time limited so that means tomorrow) .. maybe. Otherwise I don't think this should be a thing unless there's chance to accidentally get in the wrong cab (finding yourself press-ganged, moidered by hillbillies or something). Otherwise it's just magic, a bit like having unlimited ammo or cheat codes, annoying to see the option there all the time, and undermining of the game .. shrinking 'space' into nothingness.

A bit of planning ahead (if you feel you need to relocate) is not a bad thing, and in a way a bit of an Elite signature feature for me, so I SO hope not.

Otherwise .. sympathies for the wing bugs.

I'll be the guy..

Another " Fix the game or I will stop playing" thread. But this time in a well written, nicely formulated letter.He is not saying this !

Well, if you want to leave, go, if you don't, stay. Easy as that. But why posting this on a forum? What are you gaining by tha It is polite to say goodbye ! ( plus he is drwaing attention to a problem )



I took a 1.5 months break as well, nobody knew, i didn't care nobody knew. Its not like they are gonna fix this game now how you want it to be. He is not asking for this !


Choose ship on start? Never gonna happen, and i don't want it either.... He is only making a sugestion that could be discussed !

Wing? Some good points. But hours trying? C'mon.... He is not lying ! ( extremely valid points were made by the op ).

Anyway, ur a cool guy, hate to see you leaving. But, well, bye.

....You too are a cool guy Dusty, we are just saying goodbye ( for now ) sadly ! BulletMunkie out.

Hello I am replying to your post. I know this game has some bugs and not being able to get frequent updates like a destiny or call of duty game is taxing. However, some of the items you want on your list are for other games. For example fast travel, That is an item you reference and I believe it does not belong in this game type. Heck I do not believe it belongs in any role playing game. Part of the excitement for me is the work I have to put in, nothing to easy. Fast travel would ruin this game ,sort of like the docking computer. You do not need skill for the aforementioned features requested, you would not have to manage resources like weapons and fuel or your pips. For example, If you are on a mission and you are done with the mission but you have to return to a station and you get blown up while returning by a NPC or Human player thats your fault. Maybe you ran out of ammo or your fuel was low etc. Fast travel would take resource management out of the game and lower expectations for guys like me. SO SToP SAYING YOU WANT FAST TRAVEL LOL!
