Only 2.8%...

[additional001]

I'm sure by now everyone has seen or heard the 2.8% figure on board flipping. As The Yamiks said in his video and in streams we kinda have to take FDEV's word for it because we don't have access to the data. To good naturedly have a lil fun I thought it would be fun to give them a little ribbing for it. So in that spirit feel free to add your, "only 2.8%" jokes here. Please keep it civil and poke fun at the game and don't make it personal against anyone in game or at Frontier. Don't get the thread shut down.

With that... on with the fun...


Only 2.8% of players haven't died from parking violations.
Only 2.8% hose down their cargo holds after hauling biowaste.
Only 2.8% enjoy grinding for materials for engineering.
Only 2.8% of all explorers scan everything they can get a bead on.
Only 2.8% of Thargoids think humans are just... meh.
Only 2.8% think SRVs are a great rover.

You get the gist... have fun with it!

Thats my fault, sorry. I play 2.8% of the total time for all players combined. I have joined a support group so expect the number to drop.

Man, I just want Antimony to be 2.8% where I'm at. Is that too much to ask?


Whatever # FDev released doesn't matter. Last I'd heard, Board Flipping's final nail is entering the coffin during the next update so it's all kind of moot imo. The Antimony percantage isn't though. There really needs to be some better spots in the bubble.

You can fool all the CMDRs 2.8% of the time,
and 2.8% of the CMDRs all the time,
but you cannot fool all the CMDRs all the time.

 

[GunnerBill]

I feel bad that no one cares about the other 97.2% of CMDRs

They MUST BE REPRESENTED!

I think that the discussed 2.8 % of the missions are missions that were fulfilled and that the Underlying 100% are all missions generated in that time. That would fit.

I don´t believe that only 2.8 % of the Players were using boardflipping. Everyone I know, everyone I talked to on various Elite-Meets uses/used it and it totally makes sense to use it until something is done by Frontier to make missions "fun" and not stealing Players playing time. The mentioned "fixes" will do Nothing more than letting Players put their HOTAS´ aside.

All those fixes should have been done pre-release. Changing Basic functions of the game 4 years after it has gone live will do Nothing more than distract Players from the game.
