Not me... Everything that annoys me about ED:O is present & much worse in SC.

X4: Tides of Avarice launches in March...

Ive actually enjoyed the Odyssey content. The gameplay is a bit elemental and of course its been broken for almost a year now.
If frontier stuck with it, i could see good things grow from it.
The gameplay in SC is up my street, however its a title that still has a long way to go...
 
There is no good sense here... You have read the content in general here, haven't you?

As much sense here as in the SC forum, or any other game forum, probably.

(I have never claimed to post sense, or pretend a game is important!)

I used to post here ALOT, started in 2016. But i stopped that about 1.5 years ago because this place wound me up so much. it actually made me start hating the game. This forum changed... it used to be fun once, then it got politcal and whingy.

Ive found that im a much happier man now since i cut out all forms of social media from my life and that includes this place.
i still read it on and off and i post the odd 'what not' here and there, but basically im disengaged and uninvested.

Still Play ED though.

You are a wise man.

The forum here, in general, is a source of much amusement for me. So many 'serious' players, all clutching their pearls when others disagree with their perspective or agenda. But then, maybe it is because I have a generally well developed sense of the ridiculous?

I wouldn't criticise your choice though, each of us are different.

As for ED - It is a rare day that I don't play, more recently with some 'game friends', and enjoy this time. Throw in a handful of other titles for diversity and my playtime is varied fun.

Must admit I've been of a similar mindset. Got sick of being annoyed at some of the toxic and perpetually negative views of some here in the forums. Although I've never hated the game as a result, just some of those who play it. Mind you, I'm sure some no longer play it but just LOVE to rag on it here just the same....
 
So we have today...

So the underground is buzzing that Frontier are remaining silent as they arrange to sell out...

Is it to Tencent? Shall we be playing ED on our mobiles, with lootboxes every jump?

More exciting DOOM news as it breaks...

Stay tuned!

(yes, it is humour!)
I watched that, a buyout wasn't on my bingo card for why FDev have remained tightlipped. After watching it my thoughts were turned to Epic being a possible candidate, there is the Tencent connection there. I'm not sure if it were the case that FDev was acquired what that would spell for Elite, it's an historical game franchise that with extra investment could reap some major rewards - especially for Epic if it were ported/integrated to the Unreal 5 engine, you wouldn't get a better showcase game for Unreal 5 than Elite Dangerous IMO. Their Matrix video of the procgen city is certainly a perfect fit to get full populated worlds in the game along with many other possibilities. There's no game with a scope like it out there, it would be a huge leap forward for the entire games industry.

Of course it could also go the other way and the focus be on the Warhammer, F1 & Jurassic Park franchises with the rest being trimmed by whichever party is the purchaser, or indeed, maybe FDev are the one's who are looking to purchase.
 
As I read elsewhere...

Frontier are engaging with every title except ED, where there is effective silence... Maybe nobody wants to buy a geriactric game played by a niche minority! :eek:

(Yes, I did read that elsewhere... Possibly as I wrote it elsewhere :ROFLMAO: )
Or approaching empty nesters with a lot of retirement cash and time to play a game that is the fulfillment of their childhood video game dreams...
