My open letter to Fdev

This really is the best solution. Just make every CG a competition like the Daramo war.

Then everyone can treat it as a race. EASY.
In the end all i really care about is someone at frontier made the call to change the actions of a player group.... I thought that the players helped make the story. Was the rewrite too inconvenient for you Fdev??

Probably.

Script authors aren't cheap you know?
 
So hunting other players is not playing?
Look I dont kill players unless they attack me but FD said that killing anyone in open for any reason is fair game as long as you dont abuse systems (like abuse respawns or cheat)
Absolutely.

But the other side of the coin is, whenever people complain about it, they're told to go to PG/Solo. Which I think is fair enough. But when they do, they get complaints how everyone is in PG/Solo specifically to oppose their actions.

The solution is obvious. A 2 fingered salute to the Bubble and go exploring.
 
No doubt there is a divide in player types and game styles I'm not going to add any fuel to this raging fire.
However, I wish FD would definitively decide what type of game ED is and stop trying (or implying) that the game caters for all the different abilities and motivations of the gaming community. I hate reading the forums now with this constant friction between the PvP and PvE hardcore and I'm beginning to hate the CGs and PP rationale.
Can we really affect the galaxy or is it just an illusion? Is there a point to competitive conflict/strategy or is the game purely a collaborative undertaking following a storyline determined by FD; with no deviation but only levels of benefit?>
I feel FD are trying too hard to please an unknown majority and have lost their vision about the game "they wanted to make".
 
Absolutely.

Is that two fingers from one hand, or an individual finger from each hand?
 
Absolutely.

I wanted to escort traders , fight crime and all that but no trader wants help because :
1) they hide in solo
2) they are paranoid and just jump away or log off the second someone talks
3) sometimes they say yes and like 99% of the time in open nothing happens

Look here, OP, it's your own fault you're a member of an insignificant small group.

If you people were good/nice/interesting enough, you'll too will have +3k members and would be able to counter or break the blockade, whatever.

I was trying to make a friend last night, but was also hunting bounties at the same time. I asked this cat "Got any warrants?"... and then he was gone.

I realize now that my "Hello" may have been a little heavy-handed :p

I may as well have asked him if he had any tasty cargo.

I don't agree with what the OP did, but he has a point with the way CGs can't be properly opposed.
The occasional CG should be enforced open play. It would make a huge difference to how people approached them. The current Solo/Mobius players would need to equip differently, wing up, accept losing a ship occasionally or avoid these CGs completely.

Don't worry, they're just hiding from the condescending better than y'all attitude that some players have who cannot imagine that someone wouldn't want to be in the same galaxy as them :)

2) they are paranoid and just jump away or log off the second someone talks
Odd ... I didn't notice that when I was in open. I guess it's the T-6 adorableness.

3) sometimes they say yes and like 99% of the time in open nothing happens
Which means Open is 99% of the time the exact same as solo/PG.

As I said, the solution is obvious. A 2 fingered salute to the Bubble and go exploring.
 
Speaking for myself (not the player group I am with) I applaud the actions of the 13th Legion and hope enough people will follow the example until FD has no choice but to make changes

You condone harassment and bullying of innocent players who have chosen not to enter into PvP combat? Then you deserve to join the list of those already banned.

it would be funny if fd actually did this and like 10 people in open took part in them :D

You just want people to play how you want. You just want more targets for your psycho ego, for which truly disgusts many and declares the downfall of Humanity.

You should stop blasting people coming out and going towards stations.

But then again, whatever floats your goat boat. I'll stay away from psychos in Open.

Player stories is almost all I see in galnet over the last few months, unfortunately.
