pfft.... and finally meh.... thats all I have to say about this poll...
 
Your pool doesn't show which is high and what is low... like saying "Shes a 10" is high praise indeed, or "Its number 1 all the way" can be the best...
And removing 1 and 10 just skews the 100% ration of a 1 - 10 scale... technically you then divide by 80%
 
For me, i thin it's the longevity that gets the worst score.
Unless they invent some sort of catchy attention-grabbing story/campaign-ish sort of thing, I think this game will get very boring very quickly.
It's a beautiful game, with great sound and the functions are pretty much top notch. But it's a grind, and it's repetitive.

This. The grind for credits has no point other than to get a more expensive grinder and fly around looking at pretty things in your expensive boat.

Campaigns usually only decrease longevity as games are usually built around them, and get boring once you finished it. And campaigns have little to no replay value.
 
the servers have done well. I haven't had any problems connecting.

Connection issues seem fine but once you're in, try traveling beyond the frontier systems. I've never had as many "failed to connect with transaction server" crashes as I have post release. Beta and Gamma were far more stable for me. The core systems seem stable but it seems the further out you travel the more unstable the game becomes.

Haven't tried smuggling or piracy so not taking those into account in my "scoring"... About the "9" for bugs and stability - ED has never crashed for me (but has dc'd me couple times), and the rare bugs I've encountered have gotten a fix pretty asap.

4/10

sorry, i love the game, but i can´t give them an approval, there is a lot of promised features missing and other still not polished, if i were not a beta tester and i come new to the game, i would feel very upset.
 
It's actually quite a bad release as frontier could have waited and released later with all promised features, but instead that decided that they have to urgently put a "released" tag on a beta game and add release content later...

But so far the game is awesome, but many features are missing.

So 5/10

Agreed. This is still a beta release. Fun enough to play but pretty thin soup.
