Do you mean Mobius, the group shared by 9000+ players? Or something else.

No possibility. Please try and read what is written, not what you convert it to in your own head. :rolleyes:

Everyone stay calm... no ill will intended. The fact is Mobius is a segregation on the player base with the intent of sharing the same galaxy without the possibility of encountering hostile players. This is what makes the statement ironic... nothing more, nothing less.

It's all good news. Obviously he won't go into specifics as as soon as it's not exact he's called a lier.


Off topic: I bet the FD hate a good portion of the backers and would enjoy paying some burly geezer to come to your house and push your starter money down your throats.
personally I'd just perma ban half of you :)

The quote that you commented on mentioned sharing, not hostility. Mobius are all about sharing.

And where did we differ? Which part of my post says otherwise?

Clearly that was the "angle" the guy was digging at. I think everybody knows how many members there are. I mean you can see the irony in a Mobius player saying what he did right?

sorry for off topic mods :)

The only way to make sure that players can truly "do what they like" is to make sure the professions are properly balanced. Otherwise, a significant number of people will always feel like they can't play the game the way they'd like. That's just reality.

Anyway good article. Hopefully we'll hear something new soon. I'd expect power play to be out at least a month or two before we start hearing what the next update will be.

Totally pointless sharing the same galaxy when there is no possibility to meet.

Ironic coming from a Mobius member

Someone who is part of large group specifically created so like-minded players could meet each other in game criticises others for not meeting in game. Which part of that is ironic?

If Kosmetas had picked up that jabokai also played Solo, and used that to have a dig, then fair enough, that would work. Cheap and childish, but it would at least make some sense. Targeting Mobius was a huge miss.

Yes, those things were never in doubt really, same as with the Thargoids.

But ok, let's remember, many players joined after release and may not be as aware about these things as others. For them these conformations can be reassuring.

Yes I think you are right about that.

i guess you can be obtuse if you want although from reading your posts here and there I think you are in fact quite sharp.
If you wander over to so open/group discussion I belive it was more a dig at the mobius player making such a statement and not really a dig at the group.
if you would like to carry on likely better via pm* as we are well off topic now

*i can't be to **ed pm though.

Mobius represents a portion of the playerbase that wants to Co op without PVP. EVERY MMO DOES THIS. Stay calm.

I won't pay for an expansion, therefor I hope walking around my ship is not part of planet landings.

It will be :)

I'm not being obtuse. He said "a Mobius member". He was characterising him by his membership of Mobius. Mobius is not in anyway incompatible with the statement he was claiming was ironic. Incidentally I'm not defending Mobius, I'm defending the English language. It wasn't ironic.

Oh it's about being pedantically correct?(<that probably isn't)
in that case I'll not comment further. Nobody likes the grammar police ;)

I wonder how long before it lands on the PS4, that's been confirmed too.
I hope that is after they work on the expansions.
I don't blame for trying to get as big a player base as they can, i just want PC updates to not be held back.

I think relevant to this might be the question. Are micosoft servers p2p or standard? Is it possible to play in the same instances between two different server structures? I really don't know.

Braben's comment seemed to be about the upgrade procedure rather than the server config. If both versions share the same universe they also need to share the same client version; and Frontier can't control the Xbox client's upgrade process directly. So they had two options:

- delay each Mac & PC update until the corresponding Xbox update has gone out. (Annoys the Mac & PC players, waiting longer for versions to be released, plus longer downtime waiting for the Xbox version to pass through the MS update process)
- put the Xbox client (and any other client for which Frontier don't control the update process) in separate universes.

I'd guess it would be the same if ED was on the Mac App Store - not sure about Steam and how it pushes out app updates.
