I've never played a game that relies on external tools to make it playable. If they want this game to be easier to get into for new users incorporating tools like eddb.io and inara would be a good place to start. Also, add tools for finding trade routes, etc.
Is there some reason why this hasn't been done already? It's a simple search feature.
yes your absolutely right,
but food for thought....
new players become regular players
Regular players face the bugs
the bugs win
regular players become ex players
is the next patch for "the regular players experience" - or are we just going to gloss over this and sweep it under the rug?
