Us top 25%ers were CONNED by FDev into putting in more time, effort and grind for something now not so unique prize. Why have tiered prizes in the first place? Why not just give out prizes for participating.
Oh dear, it's the Mk IV all over again!

So we can agree anyone complaining they dont get more from the CG in response to the 75% crew getting access to the goal, but can we not also agree that everyone who complained the CG was unfair (somehow) in order to make Fdev GIVE them something they too did not earn per the guidelines of the CG, were also acting like entitled children?
I've only been watching these for a few days but I can certainly see why no one posts on here, that much is certain.![]()
Probably because I'm a woman.A wise man indeed!

Don't let that old advice fool anyone, I assure you I don't know what I don't knowReminds me of an old joke:
A wise man once said, "I don't know. Ask a woman"
On the other hand, I know all!Don't let that old advice fool anyone, I assure you I don't know what I don't know

You know? I don't know. But to topic, ladies and gentlemen playing elite dangerous. If you're super worried about getting super duper grinding rewards in an eterally early access space game. You weren't trying to get it to get it, you were trying to get it so someone else couldn't. That's not a good way to be in life. Be good to each other.Sorry my head just exploded! I guess your name should have given me a hint as to your gender, but don't two negatives make a positive, if you don't know what you don't know then you must know what you do know!
You mean, the pandemic? Where I'm stuck, due to age and respiratory issues?It's a matter of choice
I wish my Cobra 4 could use this module...Oh dear, it's the Mk IV all over again!
I think you guys got to have lots if extra time to play a video game and a fleet carrier
It's a matter of choice

Right but extra hobby time doesn't mean you deserve extra stuffNo, i mean the way people spend their time...
You probably need to have done hard work at least once in your live to understand the problem.Don’t sell me the extra effort nonsense. This is a leisure activity; if you think it’s work, why are you playing at all?

Most of the game is fun, yes. But this CG was not at all about the money, it was about the module. People wanted it so much that they invested lots of time in that tedious menial grinding activity to stay in top 25%. Happy that it was over so quick. And no, this part was not fun. But the module was worth the effort.
Giving it now to all the others, maybe even two, when they dabbled a little bit in both, but still not invested half the effort, is a stab in the back for the people who went out of their way to earn it the original way.
People made their participation decision during the CG based on the rules. If the rules were different, they would have made different decisions. Changing the rules afterwards is a betrayal to all those people, who were conned into acting in a way, that they would not have done, when the rules were changed before the CG.
As one of the top 25% in the CG I felt this way. And still do in some ways. But I'm just about over it. Worst case sinario (for me) is to suck it up. No real harm done, it's just a game, wasted a few extra hours grinding. Etc. Etc. All I learned from this is that FDev have lost a little trust from me (Maybe others, I can't speak for others) and I'll be vary weary of the next CG prizes. I know myself I'll not be putting much, if any effort into the next one & any future ones if FDev can't keep their word and give in to the whiners, unless it's a nice new juicy shiny, lol.You probably need to have done hard work at least once in your live to understand the problem.
