Fdev needs open players.

I would imagine that solo players don't buy many ship kits and skins.

and seeing what the share price has done over the last 5 days...
 
Open-Only solves just one part of that.

  1. There's still the issue of non cross-platform play, so PC players can't see what XB1 or PS4 players are doing, nor stop them (without a players on the other platforms).
  2. Then the issue of the turn-based aspect of how the living breathing galaxy states get updated but once a day.

Each power play group have people that play the other platforms so that point is moot. Let us PPers worry about that stuff.
 
I was just being flippant, as for calling all pvpers the right wing of mmo's that is just gibberish lol. Maybe that was the point a light hearted joke so I had a light hearted joke right back lol.

Please leave the politics to real life. I don't want to hear about left or right or fascists or SJWs or any of that while in Elite.

While I'm not going to say that I speak for all solo players, I should point out that I buy rather a lot of ship kits and skins. And weapon/engine colours, nameplates and IDs.

Plenty more where they came from etc etc :).

According to FD, they already have open players, lots of them...

That is unbelievably false. I don't step foot in open anymore, haven't in a while, will never again. Why is that important? Because I've spent ~140 USD on elite, INCLUDING ship skins... This open only nonsense sure makes me wish I hadn't though...

Of a similar mindset. But you beat me to typing it though. :)

I think you're off the mark on this one. Doesn't matter what mode one plays in, having one's ship looking cool is always going to be a thing.
 
Why should we believe you if you don't even have proof to back up that claim? If you "quit taking information at face value a very long time ago" then your comment is nothing more than an opinion.

Can YOU be verified? No.

Next time bring some evidence on the table to back up your claim rather than posting your emotions about what they said on the stream. If you have nothing positive or meaningful to say, then don't say anything at all."- StarfireIX

FD is making claims, I choose to neither accept nor deny what they put out without further clarification/support. The burden “to put something on the table” is not on me, if you make the claim, it’s on you.

You also apparently ignored the part of my original reply that specifically stated that anyone could believe or disbelieve the FD statement, either was fine by me.

So yes, it was an opinion/personal observation, it wasn’t at any point labeled “THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH”.

The statement made by FD appears not to be definitive; it’s superficial and makes an implication regarding Open. If you choose to believe it you have to take it at “face value” which I reject. As far as my “emotions” on this, I have none; I made a judgment based on past experiences and current observations.

As far as “emotions” are concerned, from the tone and text of your reply, it seems that yours, not mine, are on display.

One last thing, I will continue to express my views, I don’t cotton with censorship.

Indeed.
 
Jeez there is a lot of effort going on to make what Sandro said with a goal of putting this kind of hubbuh to bed somehow not what he meant or thnks he said lol. Y'all are cray cray,
 
Im glad they spoke up about this. Felt really strange people calling open players and PVPers the minority. And people not wanting open only. People are just flooding Fdev with support over it.

Felt pretty good watching people squirm after all the crap they pulled. Bandwagoning threads and what not.

SO GLAD that time is over. So frustrating.

Elite is looking great!

I might even change this god forsaken avatar.

It was pretty obvious solo players we're the vocal minority in this game.

I love threads like this its when all the special people come out to play. Auguring over an off the cuff remark about who plays in what mode like it makes any of them better for doing it in one or the other. It reminds me of watching toddlers in a sandpit kicking each others castles over. :rolleyes:
 
Add me to the list that doubts the Sandro comment in the context of open being more popular numerically than all of the other game modes. Don't believe it, nope. FDev should back it up by posting the numbers. Why hide it if it's true?
