Awesome news! Maybe this will stop all of the whiny entitled threads that have been popping up, demanding for apologies and so on and so forth!
(Scrolls down the dangerous discussion forum)


Ahhhh I guess not.

I don't really know why they would separate the two. Usually it's done because people with M/KB have a huge advantage over controller using players, but that's not the case here.

For everyone to play together they need to be using the same version of the client. As there's a lengthy Microsoft QA procedure to release anything on the Xbox, that would mean PC and Mac users wouldn't get any updates for weeks or even months at a time.
Or, looked at another way, this way PC and Mac users will continually get timed exclusive content (and bug fixes). ;)

3rd person ? (spits) I won't bother with an immersion breaking action figure simulator. I'd like a 1st person view toggle available or you can keep it, free or otherwise.

I in no way condone or request the exclusion of third person, I just don't like it (sorry Lara, Issac and Mario).

Why don't they just tell us what we can actually expect??

Because people will whine and whinge and make silly suggestions that make no sense, they'll pound their chests complaining that the idea wasn't what they were promised in Alpha, then post a hissy fit rage quit, only to come back a day later back in another moaning rut about another topic.

A solid percentage of this community are, simply put, immature babies who can't control themselves. If they don't get their way they stomp their feet, scream, and hold their breath until they get their way.

If the community at large could act in a responsible and respectable manner, maybe Frontier would engage with us a little more. However, given the current state of the forums, it's like a Whack-a-mole game when new ideas are presented.

I think you'll find that from an engineering standpoint, that the glass is twice as big as it needs to be. Sorry couldn't resist :D

Saying the glass is half empty is much more efficient, you are planning ahead to deal with the task of refilling it as quickly as possible.

Those that think it is half full will be caught off guard and will waste valuable drinking time.

Good news in the end. More ships are coming, planetary landings, 3d person (maybe they meant 1st person?) CQC will come to PC this year. Thargoids are confirmed. New skins and decals. Continued patching and free updates. Now we just need to be patience and see what comes first. :)

But maintaining a single galaxy is much less complicated. For a starter, take GalNet - it is identical ingame and on the community site. So they'd need a separate community site for XBox. They'd need to maintain different storylines, because factions and powers will expand and contract in different ways.

Yep, but if people cannot play together then that's the way it should be IMHO - separate stories, powers, etc. Stupid to have big player actions and influences that it is impossible to directly interact with.

Yeah, but: nothing new. And it only makes a bit of a splash because FD have gone out of their way to say nothing, thus leading to all the threads on here.

And, whilst I do not like to say it, I will find an aisle to dance in when it arrives. Until then it is a another promise they have not fulfilled.
