First mapped by.... A console player!

So how is it console players fault? And how can anyone argue with this? It really is pathetic. So because players have expensive rigs, they should get first dibs on everything? Come back to reality mate

NEVER said FIRST dibs - said "EQUAL CHANCES"

Way to go twisting peoples words to fit your argument, not helping your side give a reasonable reason why consoles should have "first dibs".

(Mods feel free to amalgamate my replies into one)

Funny that as pc players get away with this far too much #ConsoleMasterRace

Careful you're sounding pretty bitter there yourself bud - you think we get away with more? I can show you a page on my account (and some emails) that says different, and I doubt the mods even know which poster uses what game version anyway, so it's a null argument.

As I said above - if Console players have an issue with having less in thier version, you know who to start shouting at and it ain't us PC players.

When the Xbox version was launched the entire bubble was already claimed. We had our progress wiped several times during the GPP. I feel for you PC guys, we know what it's like.
Rather, we know what it's like to sit there for months while the bubble is mapped, not just one evening. But we understand.
 
I dont care about mapping, but i think we deserve an official explanation of why console players have better servers than us pc players.
Other people's money are better than mine?
 
Can't see what all the moaning & whinging about being a first tag map is all about.

I'm a PC player, I left the 3.2 live game with my ship near an ELW in the bubble, it's been there for weeks.

I tried from 1900hrs - 2230hrs to get the game going before giving up. The best I could get was twice looking out of my cockpit, hitting SC, then haivng to kill the game via 'task manager', due to not being able to finish entering SC.

My problem was, I think I've not put down on paper ALL my key binds from Beta & wanted to make sure that I'd got all the binds right. Even 10 minutes play would have solved this.

I personally now, don't give 'a furry crack of a rat's behind' about the first mapped tag, in the four years of playing ED I've scanned enough virgin Systems & got discovery tags to really pass caring about it any more.
During Beta, I found quite a few un-tagged ELW's but couldn't be bothered to note the Systems down for a re-visit.

The sad thing is that there's a lot of disappointed cmdr's, yet again, because the release of the new update has gone off like a damp squid!

Still today's another day, I'll see if the problem's at FD have been sorted when I've had breakfast.

I would guess the likely culprit is that there are at least ten times as many PC players as players on either console (going off of DW2 signup numbers). All those PC players trying to login at the same time slammed the servers like an elephant dropped on a duck, but the console servers held up ok because they have much smaller populations to handle.

Same servers. My guess would be a client issue

This is great, I'm loving the fact that consoles have managed to get one over in the of users pmsl. And now there salty lol
Seriously get a life, you've had weeks to scan, scout and prep and your still moaning.
 
As a previous poster said, Sportsmanship. Until the new discoveries are reset or PC players compensated and I don't mean a poxy decal then the wallet stays shut.

i like the sound of this but lets change it abit.
i feel console players should be compensated for the below reason.
1.pc got alot of discoveries in the early days before console port.
2.pc have advantages like 3rd party apps,vr etc
3. pc have been given access to beta every update
4. we all blame FDEV when we have these day one nightmares an constant bugs but all these where tryed and tested by pc players wasnt beta tested or stress tested on console.
conclusion... pc to blame
we want compensation for pc ruining real gamers experience! 😝
 
Are PC players really this salty? I thought PC players where more mature than this? Some of the comments are pretty funny tbh, especially for adults that have paid thousands for a PC getting salty because they didn't get a name on a planet. Kinda sad really

On the bright side, I have discovered popcorn reading this thread while other, more major bugs get eclipsed.

It's one thing to join a game that's been out for a while. A whole other to be locked out for 12 hours while a favoured group reaps the benefits.

6.99 a month xbox live provides better servers than the stock ones Frontier uses.

Probably not but this whole situation is quite funny.
