Games a Fail

[nemhook]

So your new update is a big Epic amateur fail.

no indications or hints on how to remove a bounty unless you google search, i mean, google search, just wow, you can't make this stuff up.

the entire update is designed to make you stay in game longer searching for stuff, they have that little faith in their game, that they need to try and force you to stay in, go searching system after system for a way to remove a bounty, just made it harder to remove them. worse if you have a large ship, it's moronic

The fan boys will disagree and get all defenses and insulted.

Game used to be fun and relaxing, now it's just a big pile of garbage that need to be uninstalled.

needing to find "interstellar factors" that aren't even indicated or given any information on, unbelievable, in game help and tutorial on them aren't even finished, and they still released this knowing that. [down][down][down][down]

But but Sandro said that the new C&P was meant to simplify things!!

Dude, you learn as you go, there's no hand holding in elite and that's actually a good thing. Use your IQ and figure it out.

Or... Get this... You could click the link from the launcher that goes to this page, and explains the new C&P.

I'm sorry to hear that you don't have access to google. Maybe try bing?

 

[777Driver]

Why search around? Just head to any Anarchy system, also read the documentation that is provided, or yes.. shock horror use google or visit a forum, it is 2018 Christs sake, .

On the upside, you will have plenty of room now to install Sea of Thieves!

 

[Limoncello Lizard]

Correct. That was an amateur fail.

Not even Coleridge at his most opium-addled could have dreamt up a phantasy so wild as this.

Can haz yer stuffz? [hehe]

Hope the OP didn't pay for No Man's Sea.
Or else he'll not only have himself to blame for failing in this game, he'll own a game that failed right out of the gate

I believe he said the same about the RNGineering System

But hey, at least they realized it's so cumbersome and non-intuitive that they even gave it a Link in the Launcher.
In a few months, there might even be Training Missions giving RNGineering and C&P Tutorials

But nonetheless (regardless of the specifics), this Game without the army of 3rd Party Sites providing critical Information would be... interesting to say the least.
(I remember M.B. once made everyone break out in uncontrolled laughter when he - totally serious - once stated his all-time classic 1-Liner : You don't need a Spreadsheet to play the Game. Can't beat this, true comedy)

so companies not adequately documenting their products and leaving that to amateur comments on the net is progress? cool!

Person A: Game sucks
Person B: Game is great now

Person A: Game is great now
Person B: Game used to be great, now it sucks

[Mesolithic]

Not going to defend Frontier as such, but I google search all sorts of Excel queries and don't go crapping on Microsoft because I do.

I don't get why sourcing answers outside of the game environment seems such a biggie to some people.

The simple fact they need a page to describe it shows how overly designed it really is. Stop making excuses for bad design.

I didn't make excuses for anything. I was pointing out that the OP's assertion that it wasn't documented was false.

 

[MottiKhan]

I'll excuse the bad design.

Are you seriously arguing that if the devs feel the need to document a feature, that feature must be 'overly designed'?
I can't imagine how you must have felt back in the days when video games came with a manual...
