Yet on Friday evening i ferried like 6000 tons for the Alcor CG doing roundtrips of 4 jumps.
Not a single crash whatsoever, not a single colored snake

I got disconnected once last week when the power to my house went out for two minutes. Game is hot garbage and is unplayable.

What does this have to do with other player’s experience?
I mean, it’s not like connection issues have been well documented for literally years all over these forums and any media platform the game has a presence on. Right?

I mean, it’s not like the lack of problems with connection issues have been well documented for literally years all over these forums and any media platform the game has a presence on by tens of thousands of players NOT posting they have connection issues. Right?
This
IF "it's defo on frontiers end" then everyone should be affected.
And when it happens there are a lots of posts here on the forums.
IF not everyone is affected, then it's either your end or something between you and the servers.
That’s the best you can come up with? Look I enjoy having a white knight defend FDev from my input as much as the next guy. But what you’re saying is that connection issues for many players should go unchecked because other players are not having connection issues? You can do better than this. I know you can.
Gentlemen, can I please direct you to the little magnifying glass in the top right corner of your screen. If you would please enter “connection error” and hit search, you may have your mind completely blown.
I have 3000+ hours on ED on my XB account
I dont get many disconnects. Sure, Orange Sidewinders were a thing for a while after the Carriers were launched. But they got sorted out
And generally speaking, i can play 2+ hours straight with no disconnects.
TBH, post EDO launch i got more crashes in EDO than in got in Horizons on XB, although even those thin out quite a lot lately
@CMDR Jorval sorry, i quoted your post while the intention was to quote the post right above yours made by @Bond00789lol
So at one point you were on the receiving end of connection issues described by other commanders, and it was or was not your fault?I have 3000+ hours on ED on my XB account

The more I read this the more dumbfounded I become. That someone can be so blindly loyal to FDev that you will straight up ignore a massive known issue for all platforms and swaths of players that has persisted for over a year? Man I thought we had some good banter but I think the credibility is gone on this one. Are you on their payroll maybe? I literally can’t fathom it. Wake up, man.

Why should I expend any more effort to get better than “perfectly adequate” in my response? FDev should correct any game issues that can affect all players of their game. Connection issues aren’t one of them, because they obviously don’t affect every player of their game the same. My game is perfectly playable. As has been said, that means the game is not at fault for your connection issues that are supposedly making your game ”garbage.“ Don’t confuse the very vocal, yet very tiny portion of the Elite player base here in these forums as being representative of the player base as a whole. People don’t create accounts here to make posts saying their game connection is stable, you only hear the players who come here complaining about their connection and trying to blame the game for it. That doesn’t mean this echo chamber is right.

Your cookie cutter response to every gripe with the game is to call the forums an echo chamber and dismiss legitimate issues. It is a known issue with continuous reports from players. Why is that hard to acknowledge?

I’m perfectly willing to acknowledge that players have connection issues. I’m unwilling to acknowledge that your connection issues currently being experienced are because of a problem with the game. There is no evidence to support that declaration, and mountains of evidence to the contrary.
Forums like these have existed since the dawn of the public Internet, and I’ve seen thousands of them. They’re all the same. They amplify the negative and diminish the normal. This forum is no different. Tens of thousands of players currently playing the game are not experiencing an unplayable game due to connection issues. Therefore the problem is not with the game, it’s with the users of said game.

Elite Dangerous: Server Turbulence [31/01/2022 : UPDATED 11:47 UTC]
Greetings and good morning Commanders. Just a message to share our apologies for any issues you've been having this morning with the stability of all Elite Dangerous servers across all versions. The issue behind the drops has been resolved, with serves now gently coming back online - however...
When your game crashes/disconnects and you come to the forums and no one else is complaining, there is a very strong chance that the issues are somewhere on your end or specific you your local area...
We can argue till we are blue in the face, but I completely disagree. I’ve had entire months span where I couldn’t jump out of a system because of a snake error, and been able to play other games just fine on 500mbps internet, including monster hunter world, the most nuanced multiplayer system on Xbox. I have never changed my settings on my internet once, and there are times where I am good with no disconnects for a good long while and entire months where I can’t play at all without coding out. The only game I have ever experienced this on is elite dangerous. My router is on all the recommended settings. It is not my internet. It is probably not OPs internet. The funny thing is, despite your weird echo chamber obsession with forums, we are not the only ones. I think at this point most of the people who have had these issues for months have moved on… such as OP. Y’all just dont make any sense, one of you even referenced the issues en masse but can’t acknowledge that they are still happening on an isolated scale now? Wild.
Which has little application to the problem, just because one game with server in the US has a good working connection doesn't mean a game with servers in the UK is working fine, a connection problem can happen anywhere between the two devices, I usually run a ping trace to test if any servers between me and the game servers are causing an issue. The OP could test this themselves, but they have decided not to do any tests on a problem and just blame FDEV, which I guess is the easy way out because it requires no effort.
And nobody said it was, they said it could be a connection problem between FDEV's servers and the OP's, which is NOT the same thing. One thing to OP could try to test this theory out is to get one of those free VPN connections and try playing through that and see of the same thing happens, but if the OP isn't willing to do any tests and it isn't an FDEV problem then it will never get fixed.
MHW runs peer to peer with servers located in Japan. It is a very close comparison to ED. I’m willing to bet OP has already done his own diagnosis before ranting on the forums where we already know a handful of steadfast FDev warriors will defend it’s honor in the worlds smallest echo chamber.
That is all a very good suggestion though and I’m sure nobody who has played video games for the bulk of their lives had thought to attempt any of those before posting here. Thank you, much knowledge, such video game.
It works fine for me ,what's your gt ,if I may ask ?

So, you haven’t been able to play the game at all since this started happening?
No it works fine now, eventually FDev either made a change, updated something, fixed an error, rebooted a server, or did nothing at all, who really knows. Now I haven’t had an error in probably a month? The one thing that hasn’t changed though… my internet.
