I read the forums most days, and I look down at my HOTAS but rarely pick it up to play anymore. I was wondering who else is feeling a little let down and sad by what we have so far? I still have high hopes for the game and think that they will make it much better this year.
To all you that are feeling like I do, stay hopeful. There is still time but the clock is ticking

The announcement that the game was going to be coming for the xbone was the final straw for me. Its more of a principle towards buying any game that is for consoles. Been burnt and dissapointed way too many times. Enough is enough.
And honestly, i've lost faith in this project since release. So im not that bothered really. I just pop in here to look for news and such.
I think we wont see anything new and awesome in this game until this time next year.
Little content, no communication with the community, no roadmap, no ingame tools to do whatever "Job" you choose.
Flying in the dark most of time. No matter what it is you are doing...
I got what i paid for when i bought the beta. But in the long run i feel it will be a long time before i start this game up again.
-No market trade tools.
-Mining sucks. No seriously. It sucks.
-Combat payouts are demotivating.
-No missions with a slice of passion. (Just randomly generated, extremely low paid, sad jobs.)
-Horrible in-game chat system.
-Most unsafe way of conducting traffic through a spacestation that i can think of.
-No paintjobs, decals or other cosmetics to aqquire ingame. (Paid content not included.) ...and what already is ingame is so miniscule and boring it doesnt count. Not for me.
-No NPC faces/characters or voiceovers, anywhere. No connection to your mission in any sense. Beyond the credits you are paid.
-Too many NPC spawns, all the time, all over, no matter where you are, with no purpose beyond being there for you to see.
-Background simulation doesnt really seem to work.
-Becomming allied with a faction is completely anti-climax. (You basically get a new color on the hud)
-Completely moronic programmed A.I. They want all of your cargo, even tho you dont have any or have dropped it all. They always just start shooting. Regardless of anything.
News and events, mostly created by someone from FD and not from player activities. Some player created experiments have made it to Galnet.
Community goals... seriously. How lame. Also the payouts from taking part in them are so low i dont know why anyone would.
-The bobblehead. In beta i had a bobblehead. Now i dont. Definitely the worst decision they made. Im guessing that will cost me 5£ from the store down the road if i ever want one again.
To the +
+Looks beautiful.
+Sounds great.
+Feels and plays smooth.
+Good atmosphere.
+Fairly addictive. (Trading in my case. The reason i bought it. 250+ hours maybe)
But in all those hours playing i sat with the sensation that something was missing. Everywhere.
As i said earlier. I got what i paid for when i bought it but as a RELEASED game that has now been out since 16th dec and in light of recent news, (Consolifization) i've completely lost all faith i had in this game.
Im not saying: "I wont ever come back." But im pretty sure i wont come back in quite a while.
Reading up on whats out there on the DLC/Update "Wings" i feel like, that stuff should've allready been in the darn game ok!
Im a supposed to be excited about wings!? For what?
In the end it doesnt matter what we think.
FD will ALWAYS follow the money above anything else. They are a company after all.
