Couple of suggestions/Additions

First off I just want to say the game is Beautiful and I do enjoy it,some things need to be added or changed.
I am trying to keep enjoying the game but some things make me want to punch the monitor. :(

Second if your going to flame I don't want to hear it,I am not interested in the "leet" way to play Elite,not everyone wants to play your way or stick to the stupid lore,I am not interested,I just want to relax and play the game that I paid for "My Way" According to the drop down under Game on the Main Official Page.

On to Suggestions/Additions;

1) Give us the ability to play offline like your other elite games. I really enjoyed Frontier: First Encounters :)

2) Allow us to have our own servers

3) Make the game Moddable but only if ya can play the game offline and can't use it on the official server,keep people from cheating.

4) Get rid of the stupid fines,just tapping a station or stray fire makes you a criminal it seems. Or at least ease up on it more. The game is too strict. (this is my 2nd main gripe.)

5) Add Real Mining,like tractor beams etc. instead of chasing all of the stupid system for the piece of ore. (this is my main gripe)

6)Add more ships and bigger ones :)

7) If modable allow creation of our own content like stations,ships,weapons etc. (see number 3 above.)

8) Add MORE missions,many more.

9) Have AI Wingman

Well for now that's all,will add more later If I think of any.

Stay Safe In Space :)

A while ago, while this game was in beta, the devs decided to not have offline play. Part of the ED experience is the economy which is affected by players. They mentioned that the amount of data that each person would have to download to run in offline mode would be such a large amount that it wouldn't be practical. As a result many of your points above are rendered moot from that. Also, I dislike the idea of mods for this game, its not that style of game. As for the mining thing, Tractor beams have been suggested but based on responses, they most likely won't be added. However with the next big update they are adding in drones, which will drastically improve efficiency of mining. Issues with accidentally runni9ng into a ship or station have been fixed as far as I know. AI wingmen would be interesting if going against other AI. However, based on how the ingame AI is against an actual person, I feel they wouldn't be useful in engagements with other players.

Well thats a shame. Simcity pretty much had the same problem before they had offline mode and looked what happened,they said the data would be too much and offline still happened. There is always hope.
With the amount the hard dives these days can hold I disagree about the data being too much to download,it just sounds like a excuse. Simcity said the same thing practically and they still found a way.

This game is definitely the style of game that modding would be great for,imagine the possibilities :)

I should of been more clear about A.I. Wingmen,yea against other players they would suck I agree but against other A.I. it would be great.

That's cool about the Drones,hopefully they work good.
