ObsidianAnt: Frontier - What The HECK Is Going On With Elite Dangerous?

[Red Rocket]

Frontier just finished their 6th. Frameshift Drive episode and said we have NO NEWS to offer.
No info on Odyssey updates
No news on any future content or Roadmap
No info on Consoles

It’s been 6 weeks of no news on anything meaningful about the game.

Why all the silence, probably because nobody’s working on Elite, they all on other projects.

But let’s jump on anyone that see’s what is going on with Elite and talks about it.

 

[TrollhunterX]

Nah, that's not what I meant.

What you said was, 'Well he does accuse the whole community of being crap. '

 

[Frankymole]

Nope. Arf already confirmed they're working on update 12. Try again.

 

[Gleitfrosch]

Nope. Arf already confirmed they're working on update 12. Try again.

But it would be nice to hear from FD if the patch will contain more than just bugfixing and when they plan to release it

 

[zimms]

[...] he's more interested in spreading misinformation.

[...] chooses instead to hype a line that development has stopped, even though he's told again and again in livestreams that it hasn't stopped at all. So he's a liar.

Now you're just making stuff up. What misinformation is he spreading? Where has he claimed that Frontier has stopped all development?

 

[Jack Winter]

If they have any sense it is Jack Daniels...

I did notice Arf smelling Bruce's cup to find out what he's drinking..

Edit: grammar..

So you've been here for 4-5 years and still don't recognize the pattern?

Edit: grammar again

That is "Classified Information", apparently

 

[Winterwalker]

His headline is a sinking ship, as reason for Frontier not putting out development news.

Forget that never in the entire history of ED have they ever done so outside of official announcements of confirmed features.

 

[StuartGT]

Agreed. But not hearing about it != not working on it

 

[StuartGT]

Not true.

The video's title is "Frontier - what the heck is going on with Elite Dangerous?", which itself isn't clickbait, nor does Betteridge's Law of Headlines apply. This thread has the same title. It's a question directed at Frontier. The video's content is about Frontier's current and past communications about Elite's development, and the current lack of information regarding its ongoing and future development.

It's better to not comment on videos if you haven't watched them.

 

[Winterwalker]

Not true.

Then it's a bad headline.

A sinking ship is synonymous with disaster. I take it all back, hidden in small print, does not prevent the headline from conveying its message.

 

[StuartGT]

It's also a headline he didn't use, like I've already shown:

Worth repeating:

Meanwhile...

OA is [...] more interested in spreading misinformation.

[...]So he's a liar.

Pot, meet kettle

Now you didn't read his post either. What StuartGT was telling you was that the sinking ship was nowhere in the title. It was: "Frontier - what the heck is going on with Elite Dangerous?"

e: Too slow.

I think part of the problem is some people only see what they want to see, not what's actually in front of them. Same probably applies to hearing, reading, etc.

Frontier are possibly running close to broke. And have probably decided to let this game drift for a while in favour of smashing another title out the door asap.

Indeed.
Are you able to cast the first stone?

 

[babelfisch]

What you said was, 'Well he does accuse the whole community of being crap. '

Yes. In the first part that I quoted, not the second that you quoted. Not literally obviously, otherwise I would've quoted it instead of explaining what I meant (twice).

 

[Red Rocket]

Nope. Arf already confirmed they're working on update 12. Try again.

Yep he said there working on something
He said working on consoles

Have we had any meaningful info in the last 6 weeks…nope

As least we are getting “ we are working on stuff “
Better then what we got before

That's pretty much the standard Frontier procedure since 8 years. I don't like it either but it's not suitable to claim they don't work on Elite anymore.
