Yeah, I haven't played for months because of this mess.
Smuggling and trading isn't fun anymore because interdictions are so broken ( and random because of it ) that I get no joy out of trying to play the "mini game". Even submitting immediately after being interdicted can take 5 seconds or more to resolve....getting you hard thrown out of supercruise and FSD locked.
Don't get me started on getting double blue rings and watching the blue and red bars jump up and down like a used car lot air dummy flailing its arms around.
Nothing like getting into combat with a cobra in your 100+ million ship and have it drop your shields in 3 seconds; because: 1. The hitboxes are still borked 2. AI ships "cheat" / are buffed beyond what they should be ( regardless of how many times a certain someone says there is no such thing ).
I keep longing to come back ...but then remember how much I hate the new interdictions and NPC behaviors for taking missions ( smuggle spam..... ), and with a sigh...try to find something else to occupy my time.
Seeing that the game has not had a real update since Horizons launched....is just amazing.
