Soooo.... coming back round to the "Topic" which was, and I quote "Elite Dangerous is the Largest Empty Sandbox Ever Made?
How exactly have you personally contributed to the OP? I mean, other than baiting people into epeen posts, and the like?
It's not a "sandbox", nor did it ever profess to be such. It's an environment where PvP gameplay is optional, there are 3 modes to choose from and they're all considered equal.
Now whichever mode you decide to choose is up to you, however, it's not YOUR decision to choose how others decide to play.
Did I miss anything here?
Irrelevent. It’s still not a game that revolves around combat PvP.
Keep wishing though.
Dat jumper tho
That's RICH.
And where, might I ask, are YOUR accomplishments? Oh that's right, you don't have any besides being a forum warrior.
Yes you did, I am waiting on the meaningful part of PVP (direct PVP not the meme) as some people claimed in prev posts.

It's a "Find Out More" click and a "Learn More" click down from the homepage.
Lolwut?
You heard me just fine. It's your ego preventing you from responding.
I like it, but it's a shell of a feature.
Not front and center, more like off to the right, after PLAY YOUR OWN WAY.
Curious, did you even read the description underneath?
Not one mention of PvP.
"Or just hunt other CMDRs" seems to be missing as well.
*EDIT*
I just went through the new to me site, PVP is mentioned once, in the CQC section. Why is it CQC and not Arena?

I think when he said that it was before even the early days of the game, and that since then the player base and desire has changed in ways they (fdev) would have needed a crystal ball to foresee. No harm done, I'm just pointing it out. With that said, I believe that it's important for the dev's to understand that they can't cling to the past, either, and that plenty of us want to see the game grow.
Hhahah, btw, just found the missing hunt other CMDRs, under gameplay/combat.
I agree, but with that, there is an importance that needs to be gleaned from "experience" too.
Growing at the expense of others isn't a road one needs to follow, but rather growth for a purpose. Clinging to the past isn't helpful- but by gleaning information from those who have experience one tends to understand much more.
You see, beyond the trees lies a forest...

I dont think meaningful means what you think it means...as fer the context...what context? Ye built up yer previous argument on how powerplay should have been open only pvp content...that one went swimmingly well as I recall. Yer entire context is that ye dont like solo and PG...we get it...really...heres a secret...I dont like them either but they are a necessary evil Im afraid because I dont wanna play the same game as you.
Its not personal...its never personal, but ye make it so easy. Im not anti pvp...some are but thats their problem not mine...Im anti the game you play. Id love to play in open...but between playing your game and not playing at all, Id choose the latter...sorry bout that but there it is...no hard feelings theres a good chap.
Your issue is with the fundamental design of the game and yet ye still appear to choose to lash out at the players because nobody wants to play with ye...yer beef is with FD but yer problem is you...yer just the only one who doesnt realize that yet ^
Amen to that.

Well I certainly dont wanna see it fail m8...Im hanging on fer the QOL changes next year and while Im a pessimistic old sod at the best of times, they do appear to be doing something. Im a patient man, I can wait years fer something if I think its gonna be worth it...not gonna let up on the forums in the meantime though...old habits and all that.
Speaking of which, I want pvp to be improved significantly...I sure as hell hadnt planned on being an explorer and playing alone fer 2 years when I got here, and there might just be a year or two left in it yet...one never knows what the future holds but one things fer sure. Ive been a hardcore pvp player fer decades and this is the first game in a long time where I dont enjoy it...not yet anyway. I dont wanna see open die a death cos tbh, Im a social butterfly and I miss playing with people...solo mode serves a purpose but thats all thats special about it...if open were more tolerable then who knows (shrugs) Im making meself feel old fer some odd reason.
Would any of us be here if we wanted the game to fail? Ok theres always one or two but whatever...ye know what I mean jellybean ^

+++ even the last major CG's were focused around combat and exclusive to open, shall I start naming them all?
Half the current features wouldn't work if the game was offline, so let's be honest here... solo is holding off the full potential of this game and due to this problem we will most likely never get a true sandbox experience.
