No, I gave that up about 40 years ago...

Thanks. Not sure I can go back to being over 300 again though.
Good news is I got back on the treadmill a couple weeks back. Had to take a break for about 6 weeks though due to my susceptibility to plantar fasciitis and Achilles tendonitis in both feet. My right foot was giving me trouble again...
Maybe they should wear badges a uniform or crowd fund a benefit concert.

I've forgotten about the console players that aren't constantly moaning about being forgotten.
when you consider the already smaller userbase of consoles in this genre of game, the added development work to support them, and then the 30% cut that console manufacturers take of the sales... i'm sure Fdev is falling over themselves to keep that playerbase happy.
I think their tactic, which works well at the customer service desk of a brick & mortar for "returns", is not going to get them any traction in this venue...I may be wrong though...OTOH the recent pre-engineered CG reward debacle of October/November 2021 could be giving them false hope....
I was about to bring attention to the very same thread. Sadly it appears to have fallen flat already, it could have benefitted from the convened wisdom of most of theposters in this thread... shame Mr Hat will have missed it
I'm not interested in giving them a hard time, they're already doing that to themselves...I was about to bring attention to the very same thread.

Is that a huck or a dorse?
Shame they have no product to return...
It would make me chuckle, a bit, if Frontier just upped and said consoles were getting no further development. The last gen are pretty much fully loaded even playing a noticably less detailed version of Horizons, and the current gen are still a bit like hen's teeth to buy (apart from the scalpers, naturally) so the take-up is miniscule in comparison to the last-gen userbase. Really, consoles are not in a good place for an expansion like EDO, unlikely to be worth playing on the old and too few to make a profit porting to the new.
Shorse Racer is SyFy's next movie franchise. For sure.
It's like the Secretariat - if the secretariat ate riders he was racing against. 10 out of 10 stars.

Theoretically, only in the short term, but I believe they said no new consoles already anyway...
They already did say that it wasn't coming to the new generation, several times.
The interesting bit of David Braben's initial 'post that wasn't an apology' was that:
He made it as simple as possible to understand, yet the tears just keep on flowing about being 'forgotten', when the circumstance that would permit further comment is still, apparently, a long way off! Although if U10 brings further improvements (and the promised Anti-Aliasing revamp) to EDO in the bits that are still flaky, it could well be in a state where the dedicated console development units could make something playable from it.
