Not many people want to talk about this subject on this Forum due to 'lack of voice and censorship.' So why not, I will have a go at Frontier.
Frontier, we need at least a hotfix patch within this week that more or less fixes small issues that are happening now, while a somewhat larger update comes out in the next week or two that fixes the larger issues at hand.
I tweeted ( https://twitter.com/azgoodaz/status/739529175610970112 ) at Frontier Dev, Frontier Help and Elite: Dangerous to try and get an answer but after waiting, I guess they don't have the answer to anything.
More or less, you gave us DLC that's unplayable (it's coming close to the GPP version back in July of 2015). You had one year to test this DLC on Xbox, which I doubt you did or the QA department didn't do a great job... at their job. Coming from a Beta tester by myself, this is sad from you and we expected more.
Based on your numbers, you probably had A LOT of players drop in player count, refunds have been completed by Commanders who gave up on you, and you probably have lost trust in future DLC updates with the community.
Me personally, if you came out and said "We are delaying the DLC, and launching it on June 9th or 10th so we can patch out a few bugs," I would be completely fine with that. But you didn't, you went for the money and just released it.

Edit: I read all the comments without replying to not startup anymore arguments, since all Frontier forums is all towards the "no one agrees with the OP" boat party. It looks like everyone read the top part of my argument and didn't read my bottom part at all which states, if they came out and said "we are delaying the DLC a week (or more if needed)" I would be fine with this so they can have stable and playable DLC... but no one read or agreed to this. People are stating that "Hey submit bug reports" and Frontier will patch it "soon." Have you seen my posts? I doubt you did. For some people, the game/dlc is completely fine for you, you never had any of these issues that we (the other people) have had sadly... So you won't know what we are going through to enjoy a f*cking awesome game... or at least 20 minutes of it.
Sure I'm angry at Frontier for giving us unfinished DLC. Brett C also commented that "patches take time" and yet Call of Duty, Smite, and etc get Hotfixes out the door like free candy... something smells fishy about this... don't you think? Maybe Frontier doesn't give a shi*t about the consoles anymore... I don't know. In the end, yes I will be playing another game (as what more people have stated in replies) like Battlefield 4 but I will still try to play the DLC here and there, because I actually want to play it, the DLC is really fun.
