FDev, I have to wonder if you actually want people to play this game...

... or be so bored to wander off and find something else to do.

I just completed a hunt and kill the pirates mission and between each mission signal in the system there was a super cruise trip of between 130,000 and 171,000 ls which is really boring. So I was doing other things on the multiple long trips, 6 or 7 of them I think. I won't bother with one of those again

Add to that, the nigh on impossible-to-find pharmaceutical Isolators.

Honestly it is the simple to fix, RNG numbers that make this game unenjoyable ... and with just over 6,300 hours in game, I think I've given it a fair try...

Please make those numbers in a range that's more appropriate to reasonable game play

While the tone of this could of been a little nicer, I do relate to all said examples. travel time and RNG are huge let downs.... Whenever I see a mission that makes me travel over 20Kls I just delete it or not accept... no amount of reputation is worth that waste of time.

Yeah, re-reading it, I suppose it was a bit of a rant. There seem to be fewer and fewer missions to do because of irritations like this and the black box missions were bugged [not sure if they still are, I don't bother with them either ]

Last time I played assasinations etc. the target appeared near primary star almost every time, even though the mission signal was at a secondary.

Sometimes they even attacked me, making it really easy, other times I needed to use an interdictor.

If the target does not appear, use one of the most potent tools Elite has to offer - relog. Much faster than the travel.

It was kinda funny when I had several missions in the same system, suddenly choosing between two targets to interdict while the third interdicted me, followed to normal space by the fourth...

Nowadays I only do missions to support my BGS faction, namely assassination (targets usually come to me), base scan missions (no ong supercruise) or passenger sightseeing (1500 ls at Jaques). But this is only framework for my real interest, PvP. You could give it a try if not already done.

(some missions are really annoying though, I agree)

So I was doing other things on the multiple lung trips, 6 or 7 of them I think.

Is that why people say a game they don't like gave them cancer?

edit: Oh, or was this just a typo and should say 'long'?

I hear what you're saying, and I have not engaged in PvP but my interest does not lie in combat, this was but a diversion.
