Basically, yes. Just what exactly were you expecting from a station owned and operated by a robot bartender? It's a bar, in space.
Complete Disconnect Between Galnet and In-Game "Reality"---GG FD
- Thread starter Slippstream
- Start date
A regular station that hops instead of a useless station that hops. You know a reason to go there at all. A reason for them to state it's become a booming station, something, anything to attract players. Why are they wasting their and our time on such shoddy half measures? What's the point?
This is me these days, pretty much, just not in Solo. Hope I have a reason to unleash my Anaconda full of cash soon.

"GalNet entries are written on a train in to Cambridge", that made my night. Hehe. Just give them time, its a huge game. 
God dammit
that's fine if it needs time, no issue with that, just leave it out till it has a purpose so we are not wasting our time. There really isn't an excuse for it even if it is a trivial issue. It kinda says to the customer that they couldn't care less about our enjoyment of the game and the time we spend on it and instead are worried about ticking a box to fool some other sucker into buying the game.
Actually, auto-correct on cellphones is quite likely to be a cause now that you mention it.
I often post from a cellphone and auto-correction leads to the weirdest results.
Now when typing from my desktop, I have the tremendous benefit of a spell-checker - a german one that corrects the few words I spell properly to something else - it always shows everything as wrong (I know how to add additional language support, I'm just too lazy).
All that may help to explain my poorly written posts, but I'd suppose there's at least one native speaker working at FD.
I don't understand... I visited Jacques' station about 6 or so days ago, and there was certainly a commodities market. Not sure about other services... and I did not expect a bar.
It also used to sell rares, but the point is why advertise and hint at something being there, when there isn't anything. There is no commodities market anymore. He threw bar out there as an example of something that would make it worthwhile, not an expectation of that specifically.
Don't do that again man. Showing the EVE's Scope news can make some people slightly depressed when they see what we've got here
Galnet is junk - has been from the start. Same with the newsletter - pointless filler.
Will FD catch on and change anything? I doubt it.

Hate to say it but you really nailed it with this post medwyn.
Gimme a working trading system and let me walk around my ship in SC and I will be dancing
To those who actually caught on to my satire thank you for your support.
To the few who actually defended FD regarding the galnet false advertising regarding this worthless station: the Ultimate Fanboy forums are awaiting your next googley-eyed, jaw-dropped, OMG I'm flying in space, I love you FD YOURE AMAZING posts. So go stroke their non-deserving ego's some more so they think they're appeasing players. Pathetic, just like the station

So... in your first post you make fun of people criticizing FD, but now you make fun of the fanboys...
Are you a troll or do you not understand what satire means?
It's sad on how correct you are :/.
So we are comparing the content maturity and developmental stages of a 13 year old game with that of one which has been released for 2 months? Legit
Eve Online struggled for some 6 to 7 years (and that's a generous estimation) before it was developed enough to retain a considerable playerbase. You guys are expecting a game (much larger and grander in scope, with much more potential imo) to achieve the same thing in 2 months? You guys are ridiculous.......

Yeah. Ridiculous to expect purveyors of an online game to look at what works in other online games and design their game to be better. After all, it's only been out ten years so it's unreasonable to think they might have figured out the best bits to take from that and how to improve on them. Ridiculous to expect promised features and actual content at launch.
Agreed. Not a FD fanboy but I do have patience. Galnet is clearly nothing ATM. It wasn't even a thing 6 months ago. Why the drama?
