Quick summary on my experience on the engineers udate :
- Being an imperial, engineers are really far away from me
- If I want to work with engineers I will have to do missions around them in order to collect materials and completing missions will most of the time earn me good influence on Federation but bad influence on Empire
- Community goals are as usual on the federation side of the galaxy which is again an annoyment (c.f. above)
- My ship is now wrecked by ennemy NPCs, that means I can't bounty hunt or go to conflict zones without just dying for collecting really small rewards in a large amount of time
To summarize, I can't do what I liked to do anymore and in exchange for that content that disappeared for me, I got an extension I can't enjoy because it is too far or it involves erasing all of what I have done so far on my tiny space in the galaxy. Right now I just have no motivation going back to this game : just before the engineers was released I farmed about 10 hours to get "allied" with the empire (99% reputation) and now just by completing a donation to the federation, I was just demoted to "friendly" status (75% reputation) [sad]
I can't wait 6 more months for frontier to release another update that will be disappointing, that won't bring something really new or interesting, and that won't even correct the mistakes in game design they made in this patch. I'm not saying other projects on the market are doing better than frontier or that this game is not fun. Seeing how many hours I spent on this game, I suppose it has some undeniable qualities, but I guess I don't feel getting involved in this game anymore, I don't have the patience for another 2 years of developpement just to see now game mechanics implemented without real content behind.
Voila, just wanted to share my point of vue to anyone interested, thanks for reading this uninteresting block of text [redface]
