An investigation into Frontier's actions on Combat Logging

That's perhaps a bit optimistic, don't you think?

The only thing pew-pew groups like that do to most people is make them giggle a bit - they are not dangerous bad scary people you need to be afraid of :D

Well..

Got bullied in school, huh? No success in job, no girl, no future huh? its sad that for people like you griefing on weaker players is the only joy you can have in your miserable life ;)

This example has some salty tears by the sound of it.
 
Open means an agreement for all interaction, friendly, hostile, neutral, whatever. In this mode you can blaze Your own trial. Or someone else trial may blaze You.

Nice typo here: I can blaze my own trial :)

But more important, where do you get this info from? I agreed to all interaction? I remember I never agreed being ganked outside of the game´s framework. And I didn´t agree to anything else. Please provide a link with further information.

You can balze Your own trial. Me too.

You do not need to agree to be ganked outside a game framework. But a psycho folk with a big gun may do it anytime. He do not need Your agreement.
Is in the real world ISIS need Your agreement to gank YOu? You can disagree so much as you like and they do not care of it.

Help rebels overthrow an oppressive regime, put down a rebellion, or just hunt other Commanders. Your combat skills will keep you safe in a cutthroat galaxy.

There ya go. You gotta use your brain and put two and two together to realize that you can also be hunted by other commanders but yea, that'll do.

It's all simply forum meta.

Forum meta..? God.. I can't stand it. *Combat logs*
 
As a reminder, what you quoted is of my personal opinion on the matter of PVP.

I assume you're referring to the Learn to play bit. It's more than "veiled derisive language of anti-social players". "Learn to play" is a legitimate issue that has begun to be a problem in this decades games being released. Elite Dangerous is especially prone to this issue, simply due to the vertical nature of its rather steep learning curve. I've seen more people post questions about how X does Y and how does Z interact with A B and C. Granted, these are looking from a top-down perspective. New commanders have to spend a fair lot of time before they're good to go with PVP.

If a player refuses to learn how the game functions, and learns the hard way by jumping right into the game without any, or in the least, minimal knowledge and is blown up by a random commander in open... honestly, what can the company do? It's clear that the player doesn't want to do tutorials or read up on the forums for some quick tips and tricks. We're not going to force them to do tutorials before being able to play.

Simply put: What you might find easy and generic, might be the most difficult thing the other person has to overcome for a day, a week, or even a month before getting into the swing of it. :(

Completely agree with you Brett. And I love that you had the courage to participate in this thread. Community team is as pro as ever.
 

:D

That´s not very much. :(
But I admit, it leaves space for interpretation. This is what you did. Short cut interpretation.

I told you, you are just lazy. To stay in the framework of the game would mean you do some player BH, do PP or fight in CZ. Most of the PvPers can´t be asked for that, because of meh..

Ok, gotta go now, RL calls. I expect a solution to this topic when I´m back in the evening. :D

So long, stay fair and respectful.

There is no thing for interpretation. Open measn open. One word, one meaning.

Blaze Your own trial CMDR, fly safe! :) Have a good evening.

I know all the videos. No clear statements, but much room for interpretation. You are still being lazy. :)

I am not lazy. I am just saying what mean Open :) Its like a saying what is 2+2.

Always you can question and say 'still not enough' or i am 'lazy' even if i will show a four fingers.

So then who is really lazy? A person who is trying to explain an obvious thing or a person who cant get what four fingers means?

I didn't suggest that he wasn't allowed to have an opinion. I merely provided feedback, as a single customer, on how the use of terms like "crying" and what was essentially a politely worded version of "git gud" influence my view of the company.

I agree. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but some people are not in a position to express it or for that matter pay special attention to their own opinion.

It´s your interpretation of Open. Nothing more.


Stop it now, I have to leave........!!!


:D :D :D
 
Let's try a thought experiment...

Assuming that all the technical problems are magically solved overnight and combat logging was eradicated in the next patch. What would happen?

I would posit the following, a sudden influx of players getting killed in open from non-consensual PvP eventually leading to more of them leaving open play and further marginalizing the number of victims available in that mode.

:D :D :D
Nope, its not mine. Its a David interpretation :) I am just playing in a game by FDev rules. You got a link and videos. If you still looking a deep in a place where is no deep, then you will be just disappointed.

Go and have a good evening, i will stay here for awhile :D

So we have all now come to the shocking conclusion that this whole 'story' was blown up simply for a minority to push their agenda in the interest of their own play style? :p

I understand that it's FDs policy, but I still find it very distasteful to see forum moderators taking sides in a forum debate.
