interesting timing for the update. I bet something else was included with the update.
This titan won't go down like the others before

It certainly won't.This titan won't go down like the others before
From now on it will be considerably easier to administer the killing blow!
Yesterday around Indra it was like flying in rush hour, so many red points on the radar!
Player numbers dropped significantly. We put in so much effort to get the guardian weapons only to be told our efforts were for nothing. You still have to do something about guardian fighters. I am VERY angry. I don't even feel like logging in now. I don't see any point.
Hmm.. I have a lot of catching up to do.
There isn't any point; the servers are down
Yeah, a few hours play to unlock Guardian stuff is such a grind...
Less Thargoids mean less orthrus. Just got Hudson to grade 5 and now I get another slap down. Gee, thanks. Dumping power play.
When I unlocked the guardian stuff it was far more difficult. Now all you do is scan an obelisk. When I did it I had to decode it. I really enjoyed it. Another reason why the player base is going to drop to below 1000 users.
Feels like I worked so hard for a reward that was taken away from me.

What are you even trying to say?
Against my better judgement...
Where exactly have you been told your efforts were in vain, and how exactly were your efforts for nothing?
Guardian weapons aren't exactly useless or getting nerfed or anything are they? If you mean you had to do more things then you'd have to do today to get them, then so what? You got to play around with them for years at this point, which is exactly what you got out of it.
Back a few months ago we had to fly into big ass scary caustic clouds without any protection to scrape up materials and cargo while big scary mines flew past you and blow up in your face. Said cargo even melted your ship and you had to make it back to somewhere safe or lose it. Nowadays you get them from the comfort of a rescue mega ship inside protected bubble systems. So what? We simply collected so many of them that we now know how to create them or something.
I worked to unlock the things needed to get to the Titan. Now that is just given away for free. More reward stripped away and gameplay made meaningless.
If you don't challenge the player base you will lose it. Lets ask Frontier to just dumb-down elite to Pong

I understand that everyone is so cool and strong. They are at war with the Thargoids... What about the old bugs? When, for example, will the bug with the impossibility of completing missions for scanning a ship’s logbook be fixed? Where, when re-taking a mission and scanning the logbook, the error “Communication channel data is already in use” appears and the mission cannot be completed. Please correct or remove these tasks altogether if it is impossible to fix.
You are all wrong. The player base is in critical decline. That is the only evidence needed.
Did steam tell you this?
Cast some bones and got a bad result?
Provide evidence to back up such fantastic claims...
so is my hairline. doesnt prove smidge of the dracula flow you said
I have a free Guardian FSD Size 4, from Witchhead war CG, if I add this engineering, I expect the return of the price, like happen with the Tech Broker FSD and experimental effect.
Remember the Plasma weapons with 1 Trillion damage? FDev is tinkering weapon damage, now they are retrofitting already engineered weapons. Some could have Premium Ammo.
Patch day is a bad day to enjoy the new bugs, and unless you have enough Tactical Core chips for the engineering, I don't like wasting time instead doing Titan bombing, this upgrades for the next weeks
If in hurry, like Guardian FSD Booster for easy reaching the combat, could be a great addition, using a single engineering, I don't expect a important bug in this simple modules, but human version are good enough.

Another massive grind fest, I have a lot to do.
With a little bit of throught could have been done with a single mod to a ships armour, which would protect all Guardian modules, to simple and to easy to concider? No doubt.
Back to the grind stone.

/Bold added for emphasis.
If you really enjoyed working out the solution and unlocking the Guardian stuff back in the day what difference does it make if anything has subsequently changed?
Nothing can take away the fun you had. If you worked hard but enjoyed doing it then it wasn't a chore (or grind).
