Horizons For the love of God please give us a jump computer. Jump, align,jump, align,jump,align,jump,align,jump.align,shoot myself

I honestly thought this thread would have died-off well before this.

Post the latest update any possibility of such a system is just fantasy. When you are on a multi-hop trip the arrival star is (almost) always between you and the next destination so it isn't really align and jump is it? Forget it and find another subject to come out from under the bridge for.

I guess staring at a sun was a pastime of theirs as children... which would explain quite a few things.

What was your childhood hobby, writing patronising drivel? If so congratulations, all that work you put in is clearly paying significant dividends.

Get a ship with better range, and possibly a modded FSD at that.
It should significantly reduce the number of jumps you'll have to do to get where you want to be.

What player base? I've got nothing against niche games, but this one didn't even hit most crap game peak numbers at release. EVE has more current players to this day than ED has EVER had, and ED is still bleeding out. So in your great wisdom, perhaps you should start admitting there's a problem and that things do need to start changing.

DING DING DING!!

Okay... Now we know who we are dealing with. ED is not a Joe SixPack magnet...we all know that! That is one of the big reasons most of us are here. Player counts don't matter nearly as much as name recognition, and Elite Dangerous gets mentioned pretty much ANY TIME the subject of space sims / space games are mentioned in the gaming press. That is good enough for me. Along with a vibrant community of users who know a good thing when they see one, thorns and all.

But as far as I can tell from your comments and your attitude, here is my advice... Find another game that caters to your style of play.

This one is CLEARLY NOT that game.

and here we go with a typical "go play something else" reponse It was just a matter of time...

No its actually a reasonable response. I can't recall the number of games I have played where forums have been filled with things like "WoW does X like this, it's really good and I like it, I demand that NoTWoW do it exactly the same way."

The response is, "if WoW does it the way you like why aren't you playing Wow, why are you playing NoTWoW?"

The reply to this usually takes the form of, "well WoW does this other thing Y and I don't like it, NoTWoW does Y the way I like." So basically they want NoTWoW to be exactly like WoW except for Y.

It's not a reasonable request, just because some games do X or Y this way doesn't mean all games should do it that way and demanding that all games should do it that way is not reasonable. I just can't describe the vituperation I witnessed on the forums of Planeshift because Planeshift doesn't have an ingame map,you actually had to either draw your own or remember your way around. But the astonishment and disbelief was unbelievable, "but every MMO has a map, you must have a map or I and everyone else in the world just won't be able to play it."

It's a single feature that's not in the game, and probably not going to be in the game ever, you either need to accept this and continue playing, or what he said.......

Problem here is larger than just "the jump". It is overall exploration sytem that should be enhanced/modified.
