Ok... It is a given that this game supplies no actual real-time saves. The save-game implementation here is a definable pseudo save mode at best... That being said, all laws in general require that a stated definable item.object of value be exchanged with the payer by the payee. If the receipt of said value occurs on a random risk based percentage of the time versus the total of all transacted exchanges, then ladies and gentlemen, we have a new horse altogether, and the name of the silly Philly is GAMBLING. Yes indeed, E.D. is quite possibly in Business truth an actual Piece of Casino furniture, otherwise known as a, "One Armed Bandit." Upon the examination of the applied and embodied rules within this game, not some of them, but actually all are indeed not constant. The attrition scales in a non linear & inconstant fashion at the precise and very critical moments of simulation when preservation of player's ability to retain / preserve any form of possessed "In Game Content" transpire. The formula is clear, and direct in its application. Player's content is to be and will be, "reduced", and Frontier's Server space which is leased or Rented from Amazon at cost, is to be and will be factually, "INCREASED" and increase via Argumentum ad baculum ! That unfortunately is a definite ,"CONFLICT OF INTEREST." Sadly, many out there are not mentally capable of such deductive reasoning. That by the way, is not the responsibility of the intelligence possessing and game purchasing customer base. We pay for something that is stated to be offered to us at a given price. This present policy is also clearly affecting future designs of content that was clearly designable and offerable two(2) full decades ago ! This is one of the most severe, and maybe THE most severe failure of Design Policy within this Simulation/Game. Thankfully it can be corrected, and if this game is to be taken seriously in an sincere and HONEST manner, then change these issues of content and scope thereof must !
Here are some basic and historically provable facts about online game-play and content capacity versus what was technologically possible at the time.... Check them out people, and do not just take my word for anything here... Why do I provide this information ? Because Frontier's Programmers and Designers have put a lot of Blood Sweat and Tears into this Incarnation of Elite, and it almost completely shows except when a few very serious and absolutely unavoidable issues are examined outside of the area of focus the Hired corporate P.R. specialists attempt to force Customer attention towards. This capitulation comes as an unconditional and illegitimate form of Fallacy and possible customer fraud... and when these issues get examined under such resolution, that being one closer, than from 10 Zeta kilometers away, if you catch my Astronomical Drift, then one starts to perceive or identify the following issues:
20 years ago Multiplayer command of a minimum of 4 player controlled A.I. Wing-men was fully accomplished within the game of ...
IL-2 STURMOVIK, and within a bandwidth packet size which was a tiny fraction of today's typical 10-100 m.b.p.s. cable connectivity. Oleg Maddox of the 1C Company had to contend with 14.4-56k dial-up telephone modems with unimaginable levels of latency in comparison to today's cable/fiber optics internet connections... So while there is absolutely no question, What So Ever that we are getting lots of Eye Candy in Elite Dangerous, someone's, and I will not point fingers, but someone at Frontier, is Clearly preventing the Development of Proper and realizable content within this sim. The provable, and factual functional result of this person's authority to effect design limitations is that a provable and enormous amount of server space on Amazon's servers is simply not being used for it's stated purpose. I for one now formally make the demand that this policy be stopped immediately. Not next year, no 10 years from now... I mean stop it and that means now. I can provide the M.I.T. Mathematics's Doctorate level Professors, and Corporate Engineers and much more, that will make legally qualified statements of what is being done with the actual Server space and content within this game, and just as important, they will follow and map the Money Trail from beginning to END ! If this type of Dumbing Down of realizable features within M.M.O. games is allowed to continue, it is unquestionably a true statement that all Game Companies will sooner than later come under direct attack of organized crime entities for their property and possession. The end result will be the wholesale use of All online video games as cheaply disguised online Casino's for the singular purpose of defrauding the General Public and Tax Evasion, and Especially for the Mining of Crypto Currencies on a never before experienced scale at tremendous economic and international expense In this case Scotland Yard will be the Authority being skirted around. There appears to be quite a rampant attempt to create special interest laws at this time in response to the fact that several Software companies have already been caught running advanced Bit Coin Mining subroutines within the Online server space, and even on customers machines in several recent cases. It has recently been determined that organized crime costs the EU economy about €110 billion. If I am CENSORED and SILENCED from this FORUM, that will be the final straw here. Factually I will contact Scotland yard, as well as Numerous Professors in the UK all involved in the process of counteracting Cyber-crime, and a real and sincere accounting will take place. This will not be initiated by a off teen, but rather by an Engineer of some 30 years and at 55 Y.O.A.... In other words, no P.R. schmooze or logical set of Fallacies are going to deter me. More over, I will not be financially , "Deterred." Greed will not remove me from the table. I stand firmly one the side of the Customer base and the youth's who are not yet able to perceive exactly how they are being taken advantage of as of yet, but who are put off, when they try to request changes be made to content in this game. They are told, "The Group Voted Against Your Idea's". They do not yet know how to counter this very typical application of the logical"Bandwagon" Fallacy, being used to deter their honest inquiries. David, this is directly to you. You have the ability to order content correction and changes in general. As much as I respect your accomplishments within the field of technology, and especially your invention of intellectual property, I am astounded at the suspensions of applied physics withing the sim, as acts of direct attrition and forced denial/removal of paid for player content, as well as the direct avoidance and denial of well established abilities withing the coding framework of online gaming structure. the levels being logically denied to the paying customer base here within Elite Dangerous approach (20) Twenty Years, TWO DECADES David. Well, we don't need Oleg Maddox to come before a Trial Jury in Court and show the jury how the missing abilities can be applies, Just like he did 20 years ago... Or do we David ? You must know David, that I am posting this out of the full knowledge and respect for your abilities. I know fully well that you can implement player abilities far beyond anything that Oleg Maddox did 20 years ago. This Simulation has had too much support from Fans and too much work from honest coders and artists to just end up as a piece of, "Deception-Ware". If You choose to implement the true ability that can be made available to the customer base here, then I will remain a Fan of your Game series, but this present incarnation of the series, has clearly discernible conflicts of interest between server space usage and the 100 % of that usage which should be used only by the player, as well as what current online content can accomplish. I trust you will quietly restore this David, and I also suggest you restore truthful expression of physics within Elite Dangerous, to Include in a truthful Manner, "Extropic Function of Universe." Better no Coin at all than half the Coin David. 50% of the picture results in error exceeding 75% of possible legitimate physics structures. So David I could have gone straight to Scotland Yard and provided a Research Paper level of explanation and simply allowed them to end Frontier Development, as well as the jobs and Careers of several hundred innocent people, and all truth be told the guilty party might well have left the U.K never to return or to face any real punitive rewards for the action they have practiced upon so many. That, however, is not a way in which Online Simulation of Human Endeavors will be able to continue to develop. The loss of trust, and the drying up of development capitol will be catastrophic, to a long standing point that no P.R. corporate censorship firm will ever be able to compensate for. No one who loves space sims or sims of any kind wants that David, but we must stand up against the intent of organized crime and its utter intent to take over any industry it perceives can be a foundation for illegitimate profiteering, and for the mas laundering of other ill-begotten funds. This issue is certainly no laughing matter, and any company that espouses the belief of invulnerability, reveals their innermost mindset to be one in the same with, "The Fool".
I cant be bothered to read this , I will get a headache.
Learn to paragraph, git gud!
