Hi i am writing this comment to say, i am unhappy about the ai in elite dangerous, i play this game on xbox 1, i have been out exploring heading for sag a, i decided to go back to sol to hand in my data but just as i was about to safe disengage from super-cruise i was attacked by an npc, i had no chance to do anything and was destroyed losing what must have been close to 2 mill of credits and had to re-buy my ship an asp explorer re-buy cost over 900 thousand credits.
i think frontier should take a step backward and remove the engineers weapons from the game entirely, no one asked for this update all we wanted on xbox was the horizons landings, now people are becoming seriously annoyed with the game and fighting ai now has lost its appeal and the game is going that way to.
i think frontier should put the npc back to the way they were before engineers weapons, yes they were a bit easier to kill, but they are not human and there are endless amounts of them so what harm was being done by killing an npc.
no one asked for the engineers and no one wants them, i myself feel there is no point going back to populated space now, even to hand in data because whats the point in collecting all that data or cargo only for it to be wiped out by a stupid npc with the power of god.
if that is the case then what is the point going and collecting that data or cargo for trading or from exploring or whatever you have as you will most likely be interdicted and destroyed by terminator npc.
if there is no point exploring or trading or mining or well anything then what is the point in playing anymore which is a shame because this game has the potential to be the best game ever created by anyone on any system.
i for one love the game and probably would not play any other game, but with the prospect of there being no point exploring trading bounty hunting mining and all the other stuff then i may have to rethink and i probably would just end up not playing the game anymore.
the afore mentioned npc that had attacked me done so without provocation he pulled me from super-cruise for no reason as my ship had no cargo all be it i had collected a load of metals and such using my SRV, all data i collected lost so over 2 mill credits gone over 2 mill credits worth of data gone and now i have to start my journey from the beginning as if i was a newbie, insult to injury springs to mind.
so to sum up, either return the ai NPCs back to the way it was in-fact return the entire game back to the way it was and only leave the planetary landings or i can see this game in the way to being a flop, the words if its not broken then don't fix it spring to mind.
the end story is we wanted planetary landings not supermen ai NPCs,
Hopefully i will be or should be refunded my credits for the data and the cost of a ship re-buy but i cant see this happening at all, rite now, i should be sitting on around 6 or 7 mill credits with a fully maxed asp explorer, instead i am sitting with 2 mill credits and a half decked out asp due to this and eventually i have no doubt i will be back to a sidewinder eventually.

Stay safe commanders and if interdicted submit and get out, do not fight ai superpowers or you stand a very good chance of losing your ship and a barrowload of credits for the re-buy
Take care commanders and good luck from shuggiebhoy4540 xbox 1 elite dangerous
