o7 Commanders,
So I've been having some inconsistent issues which I think are important enough to bring to your attention.
(UPDATE: I have now added or upvoted all of the issues stated below in the Frontier Issue Tracker)
Since update 3.0 I have not been able to team up with my squad in either Open or Private Group modes even though they are able to team up together without issue. Before 3.0 I could only team up with them in certain systems and stations but not all so it was always a roll of the dice. We have since given up trying to science the problem and I have just been playing in solo, in the hope that this may be addressed in future updates. But to date it is still the case.
Today I thought that I'd participate in the community goal but was greeted with this when I arrived at Ashby City:
This confused me however I thought that I would just keep keeping on in the hope that it might sort itself out.
I delivered 471 Synthetic Reagents and 1 CMM Composites but I could not see any progress or change in the CM state.
As an experiment I decided to go into Open and low and behold, what did I see but this:
Yeah, I have made a little profit but that was not the point of making the jumps and getting the commodities in the first place.
because:
Nope! No CM advance for you CMDR EAVOLVE!
I really want to love this game and while I have been trying to remain positive, in spite of the attitude of my fellow squadron who are 6 year veterans to the game (and seemingly 90% of the CMDRs in this forum), I feel like I keep getting kicked in the teeth every time I log in. I invested in the Alpha and now I'm starting to question that decision as I have less and less to show for it every day.
Neutron stars used to be my friend when I travelled from the bubble to Colonia and then back via Sag A* but now they are all trying to kill me with no indication of the danger zone anymore. I can't play with my squad but I am seemingly forced to not play on my own either. Was there fine print somewhere stating that Community goals must be done in Open or private (even though for me everything seems to be Solo anyway)? Is there a reason I am forced to go alone but not log in alone? No teams for me. No community for me. But be in Open or Group or "ye shall suffer commander!"
I remain positive but it's harder and harder every time I log in to feel excited and enthusiastic. This game use to be my happy place and now it's just a minefield of frustration and disappointment.
Can you please give me some answers because no one else seems to be able to or wants to even though I have brought these points up multiple times here in the past.
This is a rant. I am at the end of my tether. I feel gutted.
Please help?
P.S. If any of the grumpy, trolling, childish Commanders who have been staining this forum with their rubbish come here to speak filth with nothing constructive to say then hear this: Not interested! I am not one of you. If CMDR Sally or any of the other CM's know me then they will know that up until this point I have had nothing but positivity and constructive input to give. Crawl back into your hole. Nuff said.
