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

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.

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

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.

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

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.
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.
 
I was about to give the new patch a try today, but I think imma just uninstall until one of the following happens...

Odyssey works as well as Horizons
Odyssey is rescinded and we go back to Horizons until above criteria is met, so at least the playerbase isn't totally fractured.

Even shooting weapons is broken...

Disclaimer, to avoid arrogant people thinking that I am trying to speak for them by inserting themselves into every 'we' ever. 'We' in this case, is my squad, most people who frequent my discord (about 200 skilled, active players), everyone I know who plays BGS to any decent level, and a whole bunch of random people I've discussed it with. Every 'we' does not have to cover every population, otherwise every statement of 'we' ever made would by necessity include the whole human race.
no
 
There are a number of players in the squadron I'm in who are playing and enjoying Odyssey. I'm checking into Odyssey from time to time, but mainly playing in Horizons because the performance is currently better for my machine. I'm hopeful that in time Odyssey will be running as smoothly as Horizons for me, and when it does, I'll be making that transition. I'm going to be patient with the process, because I have little other choice... no reason for me to get bent about something I can't fix.
 
my honest opinion is a rollback would still not matter.
too much time and too much anger.
its a game people say.
yes , it is
it takes up free time that many people have..go figure
it has components that are long game/ long time effect/events
to lose a day or a week or even a month or 2 is not nice, but not a big deal.
to lose over a years effort required a re-evaluation.
for me at 8 years, 1 may not seem like much. it is a lot.

and then it continues, because the incompleted shell they called a completed game is 100% fraudulent and actually being built by the programming team and tested by us.
Any actual concern at all for any of the long game BGS players should indicate a better choice at this stage at least.
The BGS already has/had issue and often required a helping hand from fdev.
Now it needs this daily because between the 2 games that do not include all players anymore and does not include enough complete and properly working algorithms to connect 2 pc's that exist side by side IRL, let alone affect BGS or even simple ammunition correctly.

For some reason though the choice is to keep ruining the BGS and making it more and more pointless daily.
And keep aggrevating(to be very polite) all your long time players daily as more jump on board every day with a new broken thing that was not previously broken.

Not to mention that one of the best sales you can have is word of mouth....been to any forums or discords lately?
It is impossible for anyone that actually plays the game and knows a lot of parts of it, that are now broken(still) to try and tell people that ask 'So, What's Odessey like"' something nice.
And it is very visible.
 
Just putting it out there - I am NOT part of this 'we' or 'all'.
I'm having fun with Odyssey and don't want it taken away. I honestly haven't logged into Horizons since Odyssey dropped!

Stop claiming to speak for everyone!
You can add me to the list. Odyssey may be far from perfect, the DSS and camera suite is still broken in VR... but I already can't imagine going back to Horizons.

I am very sad that you have experienced this. I really hope Frontier fixes and balances the BGS.

This rant is still going and looks to be getting more ridiculous. Has there been any good reason given why there is supposed to be a rollback?

If the majority of people don’t like Odyssey, then they would be playing Horizons, or not playing at all. So why should Horizons players care about the state of Odyssey if allegedly nobody likes it?
 
"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.



"the media"

who?

"the critics"

Who?

"your beloved streamers"
