New Horizons Probe is out there to be found! (Has Been Found)

Another thing locked behind grind if you don't have a Sol permit and bugged on top of that.

This is you being all negative, and then you ask...

How long will it take to get the permit?

Is it any wonder I see you in a negative light?

It's a video game. It's not life changing. For the money I paid for it and the time spent, it's buttons per hour. You never know you might find some fun and a sense of achievement in tracking the satellite down. Give it a try.
 
LOL ok

So how long does it take?

As I said, nothing to be considered grind

No, it's you confusing what's negative with what's the truth. Why do I need to stoke FDev's ego? Why can't anyone asnwer how long it takes? About an hour each ranks and at least 10 ranks so 10 hours - there, 10 hours to go see a satelite - that wasn't that hard was it? Yeah if it's just a satelite floating in space I don't want to spend 10 hours to spend 30 minutes looking at it.

I happen to think it's cool that it's in there but lets not kid ourselves this is something amazing. Nobody is going to give credit to Bethesda for giving coords to a secret windmill in the hills and to get to it you have to do 10 hours of soemthing else.

You feel a need to defend a game because you like it. I feel the need to point out that we need better gameplay - somehow that's negative.



OK so 2 hours, thanks.

Honestly I am not defending anything. To me it's a game, and like most games, after a while I get fed up of it and stop playing. Once you have done all there is to do more than once it will get boring. My Steam library is full of games that will never get played again.
Getting an Oculus Rift was a game changer for me and made the game so much better. In fact I cannot play it on a monitor anymore.
So all we can do now is wait for Frontier to add new content and maybe change some of the gameplay. These thing take time.

I might be getting a rift sooner than I thought I would (for Subnautica) but I know with ED it's game changing by all accounts I've read so that will definitely get some use too. Yes, repetitive tasks become boring, all games have a sell by date so I suppose that puts ED in a unique position?

Make the game boring to start with and then add in the fun gameplay? LOL

Good luck with the Rift, it will add a load more hours gameplay in ED. Burnt myself out on Subnautica in early access [haha] but will get back to it one day.
Frontier will come good, I'm sure. I just wish I new something about game development so I could make some suggestions. [smile]
 
This doesn’t stop anybody else on the forum from doing so.

Point to the bit when I said that.

Edit: Oh I see you didn't get the joke. I thought the smiley face might have given it away.

"You know nothing about game development" is a phase heard quite frequently. Especially on another games reddit forum. :p

If somebody writes an "Idiot's Guide to ED" I hope they put "Join the damned navy!!!" in big, bold, type on Page 1.

When I think of all the pokey missions I did while I was "finding my feet" in ED, and then think of how much they would have advanced my naval rank if I'd done them after joining a navy, it makes me cringe.

As soon as I started playing ED, seeing Earth was top of my list but I kept on putting off joining the Fed' navy until I felt like I was "good enough" - cos I thought it'd be all CZs and combat.
And then, one day, I thought "Okay, I'm gonna do whatever it takes to see Earth. It's going to be my sole aim!!!"
A couple of hours later, in the same session, I was "Oh, mission accomplished. What now?"

I have played plenty of games and the amount of time and effort required to achieve objectives in some of them make ED pale in comparison.

When I first started out I just traded around the galaxy, doing missions for this station and that station, took no notice of rank and reputation, then one day a message popped up that I had unlocked access to Sol, oh maybe I should go and have a look around. I just don't get the complaints really, but I guess that's more attitude than anything else. 10 hours grind to get to Sol to see a probe! No it's not grind, and the reason it's not is because you don't have to do it, it's just a side attraction.
