Please FD, just roll it back. We can all wait for it to be ready...

[Aashenfox]

By the way guys, FD has stated that they want to avoid re-rolling the planets...We need to tell them that this won't be good enough...Just look at that thread highlighting the copy paste features. Here are two shots someone posted on my discord, from different planets(!)

It is not acceptable to add a smattering of atmospheric worlds, if this is the cost. Reroll the planets at least, needs to become a forum mantra.

Never ever ever ever gonna happen, ever.

But, If there's enough demand, maybe Oh wait.. that didn't go too well for ship interiors.

Besides, I wouldn't want it rolling back, never go back, only forward.

 

[MickyG1982]

another one who thinks they're a member of every 'we'. lmao.

Imagine how different this thread would have gone if the title stated "Myself and my squad" rather than "We and All"

 

[Q GT70]

besides it already once or more stated that the game was a shell and connected to a working game.
it has caused havoc and grief because it was so poorly integrated.

first proof was simply the very very long list of things that did not work at all, let alone correctly. Soooo much pointed out in the alpha, then ignored.
then on day 1 of release, pointed out that it was actually worse, but is now connected Live to/with Horizons, destroying the current BGS and bringing many new bugs to horizons as well. An utter shambles.
Current overwhelming Proof is the list of fixes that have been displayed so far.

Rolling it back sadly won't make any difference to anything unless they have a full backup from the day before the release.
I doubt they have that.

I mean.... I feel bad for OP, I guess.
Nobody wants their PAs to stop working. (Literally nobody)

I do not know, I'm rather enjoying all the salt.

 

[Bigmaec]

Roll back? Now that my Aphelion is G5?
Preposterous.

 

[vindelanos]

I do not know, I'm rather enjoying all the salt.

It's not salt. OP didn't put a 2D shield generator on his T-7, then get greased leaving Shinrarta and come to the forums to whine about it.

He's voicing a legitimate concern over game breaking bugs.

"I like the game so everyone else is wrong"

The media binned the game. Critics binned it. Your beloved streamers binned it. It's trash. It doesn't matter whether you accept this or not, it is a fact.

55 on metacritic. 3.8/10 user score. 31% positive reviews on steam. Sure sounds like a winner.

If they're not gonna roll it back, they better fix it fast, it's losing people so fast you'd think it was code named the Titanic. Almost my entire player group is gone and after dealing with bugs post patch today I feel done as well.

Nobody listens to critics anymore, they have shown an inability to divorce themselves from obvious conflicts of interest and inside dealing. So the fact that critics hate it is an absolute positive to anyone who actually plays games (Unlike said critics).

Metacritic and Steam reviews are another matter. They're easily manipulated and often used for brigading. User reviews are only as useful as the complaints they can consistently articulate. And thankfully, most Steam user reviews do indeed articulate Odyssey's problems. So yeah. The one remaining issue with steam user reviews in general is that steam simply asks one question: Do you recommend this game? I don't even recommend Vanilla elite/Horizons to be perfectly honest, it takes a very special type of person to find the fun in this game. Odyssey is fundamentally no different.

I would prefer they just roll the game forward to the part where it isn't broken anymore.

I mean, how long could it possibly take?

Going by Horizons? 6 years.

31% positive reviews on steam. Sure sounds like a winner.

Actually if you scroll down the page the english language reviews of the game are only 26% positive. I think the 32% overall rating can only be explained by the fact that Yamiks had to buy his own Latvian copy and undoubtedly gave it a glowing review.

 

[vindelanos]

I changed my reviews to negative. When I am satisfied that Frontier have made positive improvements to the game, I will change them back.

 

[CMDR Jayce MacLeod]

I'm gonna say no on a "rollback". I've made far too much progress already in Odyssey lol.

Is this legit? Please provide the names of the two worlds.

Generally much better I imagine, but it still reads like they want to take Odyssey away until it’s fixed.

 

[Koma Pahu]

where's my evidence? You jest, surely.

Nope, you’re suggesting shutting down the DLC. If you want me to get on board with that you have to provide some actual evidence that I am in the minority in wanting to keep it running while they fix it.

I have no doubt that the majority of players are p'ed off, but I don't know if that translates to the majority wanting to give up the game.

Going by Horizons? 6 years.

More, actually - going by the fact that they never managed to fix EDH.

A lot of the positive Steam reviews, when you read them, say not to buy the game and wait for Frontier to deliver on the promises of what it can be, and get performance together over the coming months. So by Steam's metrics, they should be negative reviews but the people posting them are trying to prop up Odyssey's negative/positive balance. Even then, the DLC review is languishing at 32% positive out of over 4,700 reviews.
