Indeed. It does sound like the perfect PvP war in space frag fest.

I'm not sure if all the PvP'ers in Elite: Dangerous are interested in a fair fight though... ;)

X-wing was easily the second best space sim on early pc's, I played it almost as much as FFE and thats why im backing Starfighter inc.

Elite is however a totally different game, sure it HAS space combat which is great but its not the central aspect of the game, in some ways the combat in Elite is a 'side show'.

Tbh loads of people here have made loads of creds in Solo mainly as npcs are as smart as a bag of hammers, then drop to open with battleships. I for one have made loads more cred in solo mainly as npcs don't fragsteal.

I can see pilots buying expensive cargos then dropping to solo to ship and sell so they don't get interdicted by players.

Until FDEV do something about mode swapping it will always be a valid option to avoid heat from players.

You say that like it is a bad thing instead of a deliberate design decision by the devs and one of the core precepts of the game. Oh and by the way, I for one have made loads of creds in Open and never met another player the whole time I was doing it, so what's the difference about how you make creds... and how would you know just how any other player made those creds anyway? Of all the dumb arguments against the modes this 'making a fortune in solo and then dropping into open with a tricked out ship' is surely the dumbest.

Many of the most interesting discussion get dumped in this thread because The solo mode swapping exploit is the white elephant that FD don't want to have to deal with.

This is a case of 'hear no evil see no evil' or sticking ones collective heads in the sand. But it aint gonna go away and they will have to address it eventually.

Doubt it. Sooner or later you'll have to accept the game was designed this way, it's working as intended and it isn't going to change.

No matter how many times you say mode swapping is some kind of exploit it isn't going to make it so. It's time to come out of that river before your skin wrinkles.

They already have addressed it. You have been shown they have addressed it. What's left is the Cartmanesque "But moooooom!" Thread contains the people who just can't let it rest and will not be satisfied until the dead horse has the consistency of a smoothy.

Nice try though. Nice windmill as well. Good luck in your charge! :)
