Community guests at FD HQ on 27th for Q4 news

Calling developers "monkeys" is incredibly disrespectful.

I agree.
I lost quite some faith in Fdev and can't be as excited about the Q4 update as some others up until now but name calling is disrespectful and unnecessary.
Just as calling them or others liars, incompetent, etc.
 
Right that's all 48 pages. My thoughts:

- Congrats to those that got invited, I hope you had a good time
- What information has been shared does sound interesting, I am most interested in the codex as that sounds as if it is not just rebadged achievements as some have claimed it will be
- Would have liked to hear something beyond Beyond but I guess that is asking for too much
- People will be salty about what they don't or being invited. Frontier have their communications policy and agree with it or not (and I don't) they're not going to change despite any pleading
- I am available for the next round of invites (I can pay my own travel and accommodation) ;)
 
The whole thing, really, has not worked out very well has it.

The invited ones can't say what they saw

The rest of us plebs are a bit salty about the whole thing.

These things never really work out
 
Personally, although I see this as mainly a publicity and marketing event- I'm excited for those who got the opportunity! :)

I wouldn't have been able to accept an invitation, even if I had been chosen- I'm not at all "jealous" that others did. (life's responsibilities...) In fact, I'm quite relieved and happy for those who did, and think it's a good move by Frontier.

Testing reactions for newly proposed upcoming features is a good thing, and "preview events" are nothing new, movie screenings and such happen all the time and it's an excellent means of judging reaction. Although the NDA prohibits disclosure of details, I'm actually excited to see what Frontier has cooked up considering the overall positive reactions from those who attended.
 
Pretty sure all hidden behind an NDA. Otherwise we'd all see it.

What happened the last time some 'influencers' were invited to FD for tea and crumpets and a look at upcoming game play?

Nothing.. we were told 'its awesome'... Still waiting for it.

It's kind of hilarious though with FD thinking this is "exciting news" to us.
 
i'm a developer myself (happily pseudoretired) and never had a problem with that. you will see that term in many a very good, serious and insightful academic book. we got a sense of humor.

Yeah, I am a software dev myself and find that funny, not insulting. See also this hilarious song and AMV:

Edit: I see forum automerge is once again or still broken.
