Frontier: give the FSD to ALL players, regardless of whether they took part or not

wasn't it military lasers? some special beams? some memories surface through the fog of time ... could be tea-deprivation speaking here though. or onionhead.
Seems like all info about them on the interwebz has been erased. My understanding is that they were buyable weapons with different stats, some being somewhat replicable with engineering, but not all.
 
I'm not even talking about legacy engineering modules. There were specialised weapons from very very early in the game that you could simply buy from certain systems that were removed from sale at the start of gamma IIRC, if you had them though you got to keep them.

So about those, they were removed completely when engineering v1 was released.

You're right that when they were removed from sale those who already owned them got to keep them until engineering arrived.

I don't remember any of the effects being outstanding, more damage for reduced range or jitter etc, nothing that stood out at the time of engineering v1 that couldn't be replicated.

See above


Edit: grandfathering engineering v1 modules was a mistake imo, they should have been removed

Edit 2: knowledge about what Stalker is referring to is becaue I had a couple of the special multicannons, which weren't that special really, just differently balanced. One of the things I liked about those weapons was there was a real tradeoff to the changes rather that just absolutely better like current engineering.

I hadnt realised they had been removed at V1 engineers, i stopped playing at that point and assumed they were still in.

It's a shame the OP used the word "give" in the thread title. Most of the respondents who desire the FSD module don't want it gifted. They want the opportunity to unlock the module through some other means, however difficult that may be.
Yes, it wasn't worded well - lots of people speed-read the post and thought I was asking for something for free cos I missed out on the CG*, when in fact I had done the CG so already had the FSD.

Still, the thread title helped generate replies and maybe even helped get FD's attention.

Either way, they've now put things right (or as right as they could be put) whether intentionally or not.

*e.g. the pawn stars meme above which completely misses the point.
