The multiplayer outside if doing Ground CZs just sucks

I guess they just assumed the only multiplayer we would be doing is in the ground CZs because outside of that it is awful.

1. There is no "downed but not out" system when you are on a team. When you "die" you should have a period of time a team mate can use a med pack to pick you back up. This has been a standard feature in multiplayer FPS games for decades now. The respawn system is awful and a serious buzz kill to the action.

2. You can't fit a whole team of 4 on a single ship. Like, this is pretty dumb. They need to add chairs to a lot of the ships to increase the team carrying capacity. Perhaps the largest ships should be able to carry 4 but let's be real here, the bridge sizes of some of these ships could fit 50 people so I say put 4 seats on as many ships as possible. They don't need to have anything to do, just a chair to sit in for the journey.

3. No Team mission sharing. Whats the point of even doing missions if you can't share them with your team? Like this negates most of the Odyssey content right there if we can't do missions together.

All of these issues are pretty major towards having fun in multiplayer but it's a bit of a drag as it stands now.
 
The on foot combat was never going to be "good". ED is a space sim, not a FPS.

Tell that to FDEV who tacked on an FPS game to their space sim, I expect it to have basic multiplayer features.

This has the potential to be great if they fix these couple issues while adding in new mission types periodically.

When seeing the Apex ship having so many seats, I always assumed we were going to get this too.

“Passenger Seats” that allow on-foot friends to hitch a ride on your non multicrew ship that has enough space in the cockpit.
 
Really?! What does the pop-up say when you go to board the ship?

It used to say “Passenger Seats” with “available” under it.
 
They dont have those extra seats anymore.
Yeah, I saw they'd fixed some Adder textures (which were stretched when they stretched the cockpit) and thought they were keeping the seats but fixing the graphical issues. But no it's back to a normal, boring Adder cockpit now, 2 seater.
