I suspect that David simply didn't know the details of what's going on in Lugh. We did flip a station, I think he was just mis-remembering what someone told him.
Lets test this persistent universe and see if FD are true to their word.

Hopefully David will respond.
I wasn't aware that the article was incorrect until I posted it in here after receiving the PM on here. Obviously I've been used for someone else's agenda, which is unfortunate. If I had known that either the article or David was incorrect I wouldn't have posted it.
Like any firm, things can filter up to the top and sound a little different by the time it gets there. It's correct that there have been actually victories like flipping a station. What belongs there would be the extra detail that it happened quickly and no one knew why or perhaps even noticed for a couple days.
I'm not worrying about it.
I wonder if the rep bug is only affecting some, or maybe I'm too crumby a player to get enough bonds to notice. I've had my regularly scheduled break from trading and missions, I climbed into my Type 7. I think next time I get in a fighter I'll try a Vulture. Especially with the current situation I'll feel like I'm having more benefit.
Well my point was, your scenario means he is unaware that it's so buggy that we can't flip the system. Its just not a feature I would be advertising at the moment.
My problem mostly revolves around how the game is advertised. I was sucked into buying the game because of what I read early December about the background simulator ( I don't regret it). It didn't work... Ok fine, how can I, as a player, help make it better? I figured they didn't know about the issues, which is legit. But then I read these advertisements selling features of the game that don't exist and now I know that they know.... Simply put,I feel that players who have bought the game from incorrect advertisements have a right to be upset.
Folks, we've heard that FD have tracked down the cause of the influence wackiness and new, fixed influence data should be going out into the next game in the next couple of hours.
I think I'm OK to give you a preview of the updated numbers:
Crimson State Group: 56%
Lugh for Equality: 40%
Lugh Defence Force: 2%
Dominion of Lugh: 1%
Silver Natural Ltd: 1%
A fix for the combat bonds incorrectly affecting influence should be going out in an update to the client this afternoon.

I knew it! What about the rep? Im returning bonds like this several times a day:
... and i got to "allied" with Feds, when im still neutral to CSG...
Thanks Nightstorm.
A much more sensible set of number. We're a far cry from the heady days of 97% but at least it's not 9.7%
I'm fighting for CSG and against Feds during the week. And the inlfuence of Dominion of Lugh and Lugh Defense Force is still growing up.
Ok. Do you remember that a few days ago we had here in Lugh a war between DoL and LDF? And do you remember that Frontier change "artificially" the war between this two factions and they activated the "our war" between CSG and Lugh for Equality?
I think these "manouvers" has let the faction system wrong, and this system is in the background asigning more influence to DoL and LDF when we are (and the Feds supporters are) fighting in the CSG and LfQ war...
(Sorry about this pathetic explanation, English is not my mother language).
Cheers

I'm guessing/hoping that's all part of the same thing that they're fixing.
It would be nice if this change meant that CSG gained ground on the Feds last night but I suspect that the bug meant that LfE made more of a gain than they really should have done yesterday and today has the real situation over two days.
I just want to say that that is the actual full quote. The quote part inside of that is David talking about players asking that question. So he did say it works. Now he could have heard wrong from someone but it does appear as he said it worked. That is not the authors words, that is David's response.
Lugh For Equality 40%
CSG 56%
DoL 0%
LDF 1%
At this moment... and we will have a new patch in less than half an hour.
CSG 56%
DoL 0%
LDF 1%

These numbers look way more normal. CSG is likely still losing ground though.

I disagree. We are winning the war. Remember, that the when the war has started, the CSG and LFE had roughly about 50% influence. CSG %s did NOT fall from 91%. If the war would start with CSG at 91%, it would last few hours at most.
I *think* that today's numbers are a movement from yesterday's - there's sort of a data reset before that. So we have moved up quite a bit and LfE down somewhat, and the others have been quickly squashed back down by the weight of activity in the two largest factions. But there are definitely bugs or wrong multipliers at work, so it might take a while before things settle down properly.
I didn't have a chance to play this week, so I didn't know that we started at 50%. But now that you mention it, it makes sense. Thanks for highlighting that.
Do we have a rough estimate of how many commanders are siding against the Federation in this war ?
hard to guess.. there could be many players in solo or group mode..
The content of the article has, it was not the post, and I certainly wasn't declaring that you meant to stir anything up. You, and all your crew, have been awesome to play with. Sorry if you, or others took my post in the wrong way.
