Anyone else see a pattern here... What do you think is going to come next?

Silly threads?

Panther Clipper?

O7

More ad revenue for OA?

 

[NoVR - What_The_X_F_Dev]

More ad revenue for OA?

I figured his videos were a good third party ED news source to cite, as he's been covering Elite since year dot, and is/was one of the annointed streamers that Frontier even invited to peek behind the curtain a while back. I never thought about it possibly being seen as shilling for him, but no harm no foul, if someone watches those videos in this thread, it's no skin off my nose if he gets an extra click through payment.

Upset people?

The game itself?

OMG, FDev are coming for me! What do I do, what do I do?

You can't do anything. Light a Hamlet cigar and accept your fate.

I had to update my meme recently.

I wish I didn't have to, but such is the life of a meme farmer.

That's a precise pattern indeed...

 

[Stelar 7]

I anticipate a unified codebase and new fun content. No more distractions.

Grab a cushion and put your head between your knees!

Ok, so if FD cancel ED altogether next? Yeah, that would be sad, but that's the problem with online games, they all die eventually. I'll probably be quite sad the day they shut down the servers.

Please don't encourage him....

More probably ED will continue to be struggling with cheap and not so frequent new content, as years before. Enough to be downhill self-sustaining cutting expenses as the console ports.

 

[Montague]

The day there's a major Elite announcement that's not greeted with gloom and doom is the day I really get worried.

 

[JetsonRING]

Well, of COURSE we can expect all the great content FDev has been hyping and "working on" to be released very shortly ... right? ... RIGHT?

 

[Flimley]

I like patterns. \o/

[Kahldris]

Lol well so much for that engineering materials rework. I was really looking forward to that. I have a feeling thatbst this point that is not happening, which is a real shame. Fdevs answer to falling stock prices is to try less at working on elite.

 

[Rat Catcher]

A bit short on words - just links to youtube, so pointless tat retierating someone else's opinion while expecting others to sit through the maunderings.
