With the current debacle with Odyssey launch, a lot of people have been talking negatively about the game and this is shown on the steam reviews for odyssey, where it's mostly negative and this is bad. I love the game and I bought it solely for the fact that we could walk on planets, but the dream didn't last long after the DLC releasing and me unable to play the game.
At this point, a lot of people have lost hope because of the way the community is being treated, and how their thoughts and comments are being taken out of context. And here's the thing, I don't condone that behaviour of threatening people, that's not right and you can't feel proud of doing that, but when people are getting banned for legitimately stating their opinion and that being called a something, not cool FDev.
So, at this point, the way you need to stand up the players who are doing this is by handling professional, not calling people names or laughing at their opinion. If you can't be professional, then what's the point of thinking that people will take you serious. and foremost, not using people's message that are really negative as a way to ban legitimate opinions and sensible ones at that. A good way to get proper and clear option is by creating a post on the forum pages on forums here or taking it to your twitter or reddit at that point. And just put a question out there about what game features people would like to see. Use it as a way to find out what the community wants and incorporate that into the features.
And from that, create an actual roadmap that detail those features and tells us the progress about the feature. How much work is done, what update it might come out with, if it's going to be delayed, if it's become a priority or it's being put in the back to prioritise other features or issues, just these things will do to improve the community. And don't say you can't say until it's finalised, because as long as people have a rough confirmation on that the feature, ship, SRV coming and a rough schedule date, then people are willing to wait, as long it is reasonable.
