I have thought long and hard about posting here. These Forums are just toxic at times. I have been a Cmdr in Elite Dangerous since Premium Beta, and loved seeing the game come together. The forums back then were all about the updates and suggestions and whilst there were some ney sayers there was a lot of positivity.
Over time the people who just like to play the game stopped coming to the forums and you are left with the few real hardcore fans and the few hardcore haters, and the forum is full of guys whining about this and that, as though the game was made just for them and if it isn't exactly what they want then they are walking, as though anyone cares.
I took a break to play some other games and now with 2.1 am coming back into Elite so thought I would pop into the forums and am amazed to see so many stupid polls asking if this is it! is the game broken blah blah blah. Seriously sad to see.
Dev team I am sure you understand that the forums are the minority don't listen to the negative feedback, Coming back into the game I have to say it is seriously good.
The Missions, once disjointed are now working well, the planetry landing is great fun, base attacks are epic
I love the new communication that goes on not just the station chatter, but also the random messages with missions etc that crop up.
But the best thing by far is the Engineers, I think you have implemented this really well indeed, we don't want to have it so that all the "in game" rich guys can go out and supercharge their ships overnight, and the crafting system you have put in works well, there is no "Grind" these items are easily picked up though normal game play, and whilst it will take time to upgrade your ship that is a good thing, the fully supercharged ship should be a rare sight.
I am loving playing this game again, Truly EPIC, I know the future is in good hands and looking forward to the next few years of development.
Once again THANKS
