Indeed, but this is a red herring, a conflation fallacy, or possibly non sequitur.

This is about taking PP away from people, not game balancing.

And, remember, there's no remit for modes to be EQUAL:

Oh so you do admit that its unfair and unbalanced towards people that play in Open? And thats ok is it?

The change of making it open only won't either. Those who open will stay open, those who won't, won't.

You see here the spite.

"You can't change OUR galaxy!!!"
When they get their way:
"BWAHAHAAHA! We're changing your galaxy!!!!"

I wonder how any expansion will take place and places taken over when nobody wants to be the trucker...

You can't accept that you are wrong, you can't accept that my last post shot down every point you made, because your insulating psychology won't allow your fragile ego to be hurt by entertaining the slightest possibility of your own fallibility, so there is no profit in challenging you whatsoever. And I don't really care to try and figure out what ever the hell it is that you are going on about in the above post.

Also, that 'yer' colloquial affectation? Just no...

Maybe those arguments and rhetoric works in solo, but you're not really fooling anyone with such personal stuff.

I believe a significant number of what I shall call genuine power players will be pleased by this change (if implemented) because they believe it will give them an advantage over the status quo. I think players in solo & groups act for and against all powers so status quo will probably be maintained (no benefit, Power Play is not improved).

Great post but this part is the relevant part right here. Other people would be wise to read and understand it so we don't waste time on making something that changes nothing.

I think it's dishonest to want a naff game mode worked on that hardly anyone plays.. How does that help the game at all? And when you get bored of the changes, will you still be here? Or will you have left the game and left the rest of us worse off? That's why I call it dishonest and selfish and whilst you might not go anywhere, I can quote hundreds of forum users that no longer post here who were adamant that ED was the best game ever.

As to the figures I got those of off a PVP'er here who plays PP and quoted a poll OA did I think where they had 5k players (Like that's a lot). That makes up a little over 1% of the playerbase of around 400k combining console, steam and original buyers like myself who don't play it on steam. I then gave PP another 4% on top to make 25k players - if you think there's more than 25k players playing, then even if you double it, it's only 12% of the player base.

Naff only because you think it is. You accused me of being selfish?!
Users who have left did so for a reason - a big reason was probably the lack of depth. PP is the best bet to date for bringing that to the game. Any game will induce burnout - remedied by a break and rekindled by new features. So, people leave games all the time - do you think it'll happen to you too? Has it happened already and you've recently returned. You're not immune to leaving either. Will you leave the game worse off for the rest of us?
It's FD game and it's FD who have the metrics and percentages. No offense but I'll have to take yours with a pinch of salt.
I'm not dishonest giving my opinions nor desiring change.

Good. And, agin, seriously. You enjoy Open. You get Open. So there's no reason to kick solo/PG down because THEY are getting a worse experience than you.

Solo/PG players should not be able to influence this multiplayer aspect of the game. They have the entire rest of the game at their fingertips.
After going through your numerous babbling and logically inconsistent posts over the forums tonight, I've concluded that you are just upset at the fact that you won't be able to undermine from the safety of solo any more.

Oh noes, enemy powerplayers might oppose you now! How unfair!

Its to force 5c and opposition to play in a space they can actually be confronted by the powers as a whole. Not about me personally. Believe it or not some people actually are capable of discussing something in the context of how itll affect the game. A nameless and faceless enemy working against you somewhere you can never stop them takes the wind right of the sail of players when they realize thats whats happening. Seen many groups lose interest for that very reason.

How many times do I or someone else need to explain it

It won't affect PP because they all cancel each other out. You'll be left with even a tinier amount of people playing but at least it'll be exsactly the same people that were playing in open before.

That's what we need to waste dev time on, so you can play with the same people online as you already are playing with?

2k players right now on Steam - around 5k if you take all platforms. That'll rise to be around 6k on Sunday(20k across all platforms). With a tiny player base already, we don't need to cater to PP's but work on things to make the game better for the majority, not pander to the whims of a few people disgruntled because some people decide to play the game, perfectly legit btw, but do it in solo mode which is a mode approved by FDev.

Takes the wind out of the 3 people playing PP you mean?
