I'M BAAAAACK!!!! Now the rant begins

And then you reloaded your save.

Original elite was:

Way more grindy than this version.
Easier to reduce interdictions - you headed off the plane before swinging towards target.
Easier to dock - fly past the station, rotate 180 and line up on the slot. Gently move forwards then boost the last bit. Always made it in before the shield scraping got you.

*At least thats how I remember it

But stop with the "carebear" thing, a good post gets turned into something less.

Wish the forum filter out the word "carebear" and "griefer" so it creates less drama.

 

[Lucifer Hate]

You need more vacation.

You do have some valid points about the aliens, i would rather they be very hard, but rare, plus "mostly" outside the bubble. But i fear they will drop on everyone with the normal random/high chance encounters that we see with AI pirates going after traders. So nothing special. & forcing nerfs on them.

Maybe so but it gets to some of us that have been around since before release when they constantly cave in to the crying instant gratification crowd saying the game is to hard. It happens all the time

Let it filter out: Immersion, Pay to Win, and any attempts to define how a game should be designed as well.

That would be too far since it's censorship on the critique and feedback of the game, censoring out "carebear" and "griefer" is to facilitate better discussion between forum users.

You are not equipped with a 'sense of humor' module huh?

I take my conversation seriously with those that decide to reply to me. My humor module is activated only when my converse partner has earned enough reputation with me, which is at least grade 3 access in order for me to activate said module to allow an 6-9% possibility of activating the humor module.

I could always make the forums replace the word to something quite irrelevant to any discussion... [wacky]

I like the censor method that make undesirable words turn into a random name of a fruit, I think that might be a good idea and easy to implement.

Awesome. Do it. Wacky is exactly what is needed here.

From what I recall from my C=64 days with Elite. Getting yanked from Hyperspace by those puppies, and the combat that came with it, was the most intense gameplay I had back then.

Not push overs, by far.

As far as the OP goes, he's been on my list for a long time.

They weren't push overs. You were likely to die the first few times you met them, but dieing didn't realy have any cost back then.

Once you got a bit of practice, a military lazor and shield-booster, they became a welcome scource of income.

Piracy is already dead. Combat logging, Submit/Boost/Jump, 15 sec. Exit... Didn't you get the memo?

hell you dont even need to wait the 15 seconds, even if video of someone killing the process, them admitting it, and sending in a support ticket, the only thing that will happen is support saying "please report via in game report system" and we know they dont pay attention to that

banana's and umbrellas?

 

[Mohrgan]

I understand, from a recent live stream that there will be more than one alien race introduced into the game. Thargoids seem to be a given. Is there any other previously introduced races?

That's right Lucifer Hate is back. After a 7 day vacation from the forums I am back and the muzzle is off. As many of my posts (well the ones you can see that were not infracted) show what I think of some of the things going on, why should this one be any different. I am sure this post will be controversial and I am sure there will be carebear people that drink the kool-aid will try to report it to get it removed as well as getting the muzzle back on me. I am sure mods will look for a reason to do just that as they always have when anyone says anything negative about Frontier or Elite. Whether you like me me or not, or don't like what I say I don't really care, but I WILL say what I think needs to be said. So here goes the list

I didn't read past this paragraph, I see no point.

I've been here longer than pretty much everyone except T.J. Brett and a few others. I've not held back with my opinion on here. I've said some things that have upset people. I've been infracted for posts, some were justified and some weren't. I've taken a break from the forum, and come back. And despite all that, I know that my opinion means diddly squat in the grand scheme of things.

But even I wouldn't start a post with a paragraph like yours. It's quite simply, asking for trouble. You can be a part of the community, without having to agree with everything, without making a contentious opening paragraph.

Just my opinion (which means diddly squat).

Deleted as this thread ain't worth it.

from the hints so far it will probably be either the race that was kicking the snot out of the thargoids.... or the lost human seed ships.

Nice. I had no idea either of those were part of the lore. E: D is my first exposure to this series. Certainly stuff to look forward to. Thanks for the heads up.
