State of the Game

Similar behaviour can be seen on Twitter where for three years pre/post Brexit everyone on it was a trade expert and now some of those same people are epidemiologists/virologists.
See my previous post above...

What I want to know is why some here on the forum insist on stating how long they've been playing Elite for as if the fact they played the game in 1984 gives them some form of ownership or higher authority to express their views.
I've used that wording in the past, but usually (if not always) to express that I liked that game (FE2) back then and also that I'm glad this game exists now...
 
It's amazing after each update how many users are suddenly software engineers who would "never release a program in this state".
i wouldn't be surprised if a lot of people who enjoy a game that is a space combat / trader sim like elite dangerous and is as repetitive and devoid of new content as this game tends to be (players that stick around) are the same kinds of people who are in fields such as software engineering. The venn diagram probably has a nice big overlap there.

but it doesn't take needing to be software engineer or running your own gaming studio or being exactly the people working in fdev to know that there are lots of things in this game getting released that it appears that nobody has tested prior to release (or they're ignoring that testing) and testing prior to release is a universally good idea and standard practice (at least outside of certain games). And since fdev never explains why things are done this way, there is a 100% chance that we'll only have the customer's perspective and it will be the defacto narrative of the forum game.

I concur...
 
that mayo eating 1%'er's bar/pub is not connected in any way to me, fyi.

pretending to be a daily drunkard like "regular folks" ... you're not fooling anyone mahon. You're rich af.
 
I wonder how many of the players who complain about the game not having any depth are also helping drive back thargoids and restoring stations.

cmon thargoids. you're millions of years veteran space travelers and presumably conquerors. Stop slapping around and start punching. This game board needs to be shuffled about so it can be fixed without the hamstrings of the past keeping it boring. Letting some single guy or ship push you around like some punk. Where's the thargoids who forced the guardians to commit suicide rather than fight you? Where's the thargoids that shrugged off their machine creations as if they were nothing but annoying bugs? Bring the teeth and show humanity how far they have yet to go to be players on the galactic stage (or intergalactic or interdimensional as it may be).

You just said that...

Repeating the same "things" over and over again does NOT make them more palatable...
