Over the last couple of days/updates, some crazy things are going on (apart from the bugs known/complained of), here's a few I've experienced:
.
I love E-D but am beginning to despair.....but I'm not going anywhere....just "venting"...sorry everyone..
.
Fly Safe Commanders! (especially in & out of stations....ooooooh those scrapes and bangs!$$$$££££££££££)
.
- I've been regularly using a station in Imperial system "Futhark", named "Fort Futhark"... a nice military sounding name huh? Well I leave the station for other shores, then go for a "cuppa", boot back into the galaxy and head back off for "Fort Futhark...except during the update that greeted me on my return; "Fort Futhark" has been wiped off the galactic map.... no sign of it.. just vanished, erased, redacted (you get the point). Now there is a new station called "Ravescene Memorial". My grumble is... there is precious little going on in the storyline of the galaxy (Oh by the way....how is our Dear Imperial Father....still hooked up to his machine.... or did he die and it somehow slipped the news?.....if the Dev's want us to "involve" ourselves in the backstory, updates would be nice!).... anyway back to the point; why "RAVEscene Memorial" for crying out loud?... good party was it? A storyline infill, even at local level would have been nice, or perhaps it was hoped no one would notice... or perhaps they just don't really care about players immersion in the game
- I've previously posted about whole systems having their names changed on updating...which also impinged on navigation..ho hum.
- Next; I fly my Cobra MkIII between a couple of in-system stations and as I'm in the habit of doing, went to check in the "Repairs" section on arrival at station..... only to find I've managed to clock up 30,074 Credits damage in an uneventful 100 Ls journey.....no wonder I'm rapidly going broke (I did have 10 Mil Credits but now down to 8 in short order). This game is becoming unplayable unless you are grinding credits just to keep pace with the totally inexplicable and UNJUSTFIED costs! (30,074 creds for scratched paintwork...I ask you!)
- I've just had the Imperial Party turn green on me, i.e. I have slogged my way through "Neutral", through "Friendly" to "Allied". Excellent! The station in Smethell 173 now even hails me with "Greetings valued Ally!".....however....entering the El Tio system just now, I see on the radar just a lonely solid green blip of an ally....no one else but us two in the system. Oh well relax! Not a bit of it....INTERDICTED.... yep it's the solid green blip of my very own "valued NPC ally". Ah perhaps he just want a chat... but he's an NPC... a chat?.... nooooooooo.... he's deployed his weapons! He's gone all pointy top on me. I just leg it rather that shoot him down and possibly ruin my standing with the faction, and I don't want to risk collecting more holes that I should have! The "factions" just still do NOT work as they should.
- I have been "on board" for quite a little while now, the stuttering or "rubberbanding" when passing planets in SC has steadily reduced until nearly completely vanished...until today. We are back in the worst section of the rubber band galaxy.... and it's NOT my graphics card as was suggested back last year (see my specs below)..
- ....there's more but blah blah......
I love E-D but am beginning to despair.....but I'm not going anywhere....just "venting"...sorry everyone..
