Angry?
No, I'm more the smirking, mocking, snarky kind of gloater.
Makes you look like a bit of a prat really. I can't imagine how empty my life would have to be before I started taking pleasure from someone else's disappointment.

Just done a 2-week exploration trip on one of my accounts, which netted him around 300 million in exploration data. Lots of interesting and valuable things discovered. He's now an Elite explorer. Yeah, no value in locating stuff right enough.![]()
Making the planet/system scan even more tedious and repetitive with the FSS scanner, definately spoiled the fun in exploration.

Right, because the placeholder before it wasn't tedious and repetitive. Same old argument, same old rebuttal. Buy an old radio then.

Yep, my postings on a gaming forum are a sure sign of my imminent emotional collapse.
Don't you dare take any pleasure in that, now![]()
See the bit in bold in the OP where it says 'even more'?
That's an admission that the old system was tedious and repetitive.
So your 'rebuttal' isn't actually a rebuttal at all, since it's just reiterating a point that was made in the original quote.
Thank you for your contribution to the page count.
What of the 99% of us that find the new system actually fun and engaging and the old system so garbage we couldn’t stand to venture out more than the 5k required to unlock Professor Palin?
Is that a rebuttal?
And what’s a buttle? Re- meaning “again”, buttle meaning?
Still not a rebuttal though - mostly because it's not possible to rebut a subjective opinion. Still, I'm not the one who started using the term.
Interestingly:
Rebut - from Old French reboter, from re- + boter to thrust
You know there were an awful lot of people posting that they wanted the CQC "rank" removed from the UI - an awful lot more than the handful of Luddites on here - and of course F D never responded to that at all.

So why not just let this thread die, it is embarrassing that intelligent people can't accept and adapt to something that is in actual use exceptionally good. Just leisurely wandering out on the DW2 "thingie" and I am fully scanning systems in minutes, at last I can scan a system and not feel guilty that I didn't trek out to those last icy worlds.
Except that the FSS is, in actual use, exceptionally dull, repetitive, boring garbage intended to inflate the time required to figure out that there's nothing out there to find anyway.
What you need is Elephant Rebuttal Leather.

You've clearly not used it much, have you.
No he's right. There's only a few hooks into the fss:
- You have to be rewards obsessed enough to focus on what you're getting rather than the experience of getting it. Take the rewards away and what's left?
- You accept the inevitable of frontier god handing your game and try and make it work.
See the problem is not the systems where you happen to see something in the spectrum that you're interested in.. its the systems where there is not....
It doesn't take much bias towards favouring the experience vs video gameplay metrics for the fss to look completely bad. If all you care about is a means to a set of rewards of course its great its supermassive god mode. Hours of flying is now replaced by minutes of fidgeting.

There's a failure to comprehend that what some people consider to be the moat awesome feature of the FSS is exactly what other people find to be the most terrible. It shouldn't be surprising that people who spent thousands of hours enjoying the old system are completely turned off by the new one.
