How the hell do we go from a ten year plan to players saying we need elite 2 ?
Remember Destiny and its 10-year plan?

Then don't read the thread about people wanting to be able to teleport to any of their ships at any time! https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...-our-ships-to-start-with-at-beginning-of-playI remember when old elite gave you missions, they where special and few. Trading was its core money generator. I think original didn't have missions.
I think elite it just getting to a good place. So many things to do, and are going on.
A bit more realisum would be nice. Let's not turn it in an arcade game.

I used to take sick days from school just so I could sit and play it all day. With the curtains closed and the lights down low, so it felt more like I was in a spaceshipI loved Elite 2, though. Happy days.
Will still suggest to you all again.
Lobby frontier to remove the mission board, or ignore it yourself (hint, like you used to). Suddenly elite returns to bliss. And all issues are invalidated.
Go sully yourself with the lowest common denominator and you have a clusterfrack of expectations and frontiers desperation reactions from releasing code changes where they dont test the edge cases of of the procedural gen.
They should hire some technical testers to do it. If the developers build some internal api's some savvy testers im sure could automate generation of edge cases (based on understanding the bgs rules of generation) for any new change. Create some simple rules based on design on what would be a defective result (mission payouts at 0 credits or above 10 million eg) and just automate it. /armchair
I see a lot of expert in this thread, gathering around like vultures.
I wonder, with so many QA Experts, Game Design Experts, Programming Experts, and Game Industry Business Experts, why don't you guys stop flocking around the forum and start building the product you say you know 'would defeat all'?

Personally lot of people think if competition of ED comes, game will be dead.
