State of the Game

Do all "more people need to play in open" threads go like this?

So, I have a question for the longtime forumites here:

Do all "more people need to play in open" threads go like this?

PvPers: Please play in open...everyone should play in open...its not as bad as everyone else exagerates it to be...

Joe CMDR: But my paper ship/explo data/PvE ship/hard work/etc...

PvPers: Don't play in open if you have/do those things...

I'm at a loss here.. 🤷‍♂️

pvp/multiplayer players are in the same boat as any other type of player who's style depends on conflicting gameplay to other player's play styles. since fdev has chosen to not pick a style to cater to... everyone is disappointed and left wanting impossible things.

these are topics that have existed since the game first came out ( though the player population is currently split with odyssey... so it is especially sparse now)
 
You may be... How sad! :ROFLMAO:

everyone is to various degrees. the game compromises every aspect of itself to try and be a game for everyone. and compromise can't help but disappoint all parties to some degree.

you just like pretending you aren't when it suits the comment. it's not fooling anyone though.

Yes mate. It's a tale as old as time itself.

Years ago the threads used to be collated together in the hotel California threadnaught.
This is the first one with links to the following ones at the end of each thread. It's the same stuff year after year after year :D
 
That is utter crap, being blunt...
sure. fdev made the perfect compromise that gives you exactly what you want without excluding things you would want to do due to the choice of wanting others to not be entirely alienated or left out. that fantasy world is less believable than ed's 0 g station interiors. but it's ok. you can keep lying to keep up your character. we'll just pretend ED has no compromises and is just the ideal game that couldn't be better if its scope was focused

Sometimes.

You also missed that I normally talk about Powerplay and argue with Robert for about 80 pages thereafter as well.

Personally, I'm glad that they did it that way. Not saying there aren't issues, but if they did cater to any one group over all others, the player base would probably be smaller and most of the additions that have been implemented may not exist...I enjoy it for what it is, except when things don't work the way they were intended/supposed to...
