In the PB phase, I made some few threads about game play. And I do make proposal idea.
But it serves nothing to do so, FD dint care about the proposal or customer suggestion. They have gone to make the game they want.
Here is a link to one of them.

Have you thought of sending a CV to FD? I have been in the game business for quite a few years. And though general feedback is taken on board and discussed at meetings, I have yet to sit in a meeting where "A list of awesome" was presented by anyone on the forums, that had not already been considered......and accepted, or rejected by the pro games designers, coders and crayons.........

Buying an early access to a game does not put you on the design team........A lot of my work appears in various YouTube vids, some comments are good, some are not so good........they kind of blend in to an "ok" gray.........but the people I do listen to are the industry leaders, to see where the tech is going to take us......and most importantly of all, the people in the company I am working with and their major clients.......

Why should they listen to you over the other 400,00 purchasers of Elite and their ideas?..........they can't of course, so they will have their own vision....and you will either like it, or not..........
