Another 'it's great in open' thread. Whatever. Glad you had a good time.
I also live at Founders World, like another poster earlier, and I wouldn't last 5 minutes if I were to play in open. But I get interactions like you describe all the time when playing Mobius.
So what's so great about open again?
I'll see myself out...

I play open everyday and I rarely get attacked by any players. I don't know why people complain that open is dangerous because it's not
If I said 1 minute, you'd have a point.
Go to CG or something. Then come back so we can all farm your tears
Open is a roll of the dice. In Beta going to Ward I've done hours both in Open and Mobius PVE seeing lots of CMDRs. No one shot at me and I had lots of conversations in Mobius (no PvP allowed). The next player to come along in Open might get blown away. Doesn't bother me in Beta since nothing applies to our normal accounts.
That's awesome. Glad more people are playing in open. I've never understood what people's big deal is with playing in open. Been a player and forum dweller for a long time and have tried to relate to everything I've read against playing in open but couldn't. I've got ganked and grieved multiple times and still couldn't fathom playing an open space game without the chance of seeing another human whether I actually do or not. Been to CGs and when I was complacent and not paying attention got ganked but on the other hand EVERY populated area I've been to including Founders World and CGs still had (98% of the time) friendly players and added substance and life to the game, not to mention I dont think I ever woulda learned high wake and the basics of pvp combat (evasion) if I never woulda been PVPd so if anything, it knocked me out of the comfortable (if not dull) bubble I was in when I first started playing. I actually believe it's more "immersive" knowing there's people out there that can fly better and have better equipment than myself and feels more realistic of a space combat/trading sim knowing there's a constant possibility of something bad happening. However, I wouldn't have learned a lot of things in ED if I would have played in solo this whole time (approx 1,180hrs Xbox, PS4, PC combined). Everyone's entitled to their own opinion and play style and this is just my two cents but it's pretty cool to see a o7 once in awhile after hours of grinding.
Breaking news;
Open play advocate, had fun in Open.
More at ten.
Perhaps I should make a thread every time I play for the mode I play in that day?
Monday; Jockey loads Solo, enjoys Solo....
Tuesday; Jockey loads friends private group, enjoys game with a friend....
Wednesday; Jockey loads Mobius, cannot dock as it's too busy so loads friends private group - without his friend being online !!
Thursday; Jockey went to play Guild Wars 2, didn't load Elite: Dangerous at all...
Friday; Jockey got too drunk to figure out the main menu - his wife laughed...
Saturday; Jockey has a hangover, went back too bed...
Sunday; Jockey cooked dinner for the in laws, went to bed early.
Seriously, what is the need by Open advocates to constantly tell us they play in Open?
[Edit: same for those who die in Open, what did they expect to happen there - to find Santa? ]

Hey now there is a plan;
I'm a fat man, with a beard - I could buy the red flight suit and paint for a T9 and be Santa
And you would go as far as playing in open for that?Hey now there is a plan;

The weekend was kind of a piracy wash-out for me, Goose.
Friday night was so promising, but some sort of instancing failure was causing hatchbreakers to connect and not actually drop cargo. Lost a Keelie, a T-9, and a T-7 over that.
Saturday started well, with me pulling another keelie and discovering that hatchbreakers were suddenly working again. Then it bottomed out... lost some big ships to high wake, and the three I managed to snag weren't carrying any cargo.
By Sunday I was firmly in Solo Beta Testing mode.

Guys don't be scared of open.
Sure there are some murder hobos out there but they are easy enough to avoid if you know how.

I have never played anywhere else but in open. And it is nothing like you can "READ". at first ( once i gained skills) i would purposely put myself in situations where bad things could happen with other players, but everytime i always ended up having positive experiences. I wish more commanders would come play in open
I wish more commanders would stop worrying about what everyone else is doing and go play their own game - but hey, cannot win them all.
I always find it interesting that some think that those of us who avoid Open are "scared"...far from it. Nor are we "angry", "frightened", any other adjective.
Must be a proud god mode button owner? I find it more interesting why someone who prefers their solobius mode constantly goes to topics mentioning open mode and tells everyone how they are happy and not scared and sometime use the god mode button with lot of proud.
Hi!
I am Ziggy! I like games. Do you like games? If so, we both like games and I feel we're already bonding.
