Newcomer / Intro TOTALLY

Ok so, a friend of mine ran out of fuel. I went out to refuel them. I had 48 tons of fuel, and 8 limpets, so at most I should only have been able to transfer 8 tons of fuel to my friend. HOWEVER. I got 2 Mauve Adder disconnects in a row, and the fuel I had.. is gone. ALL of it. HOW IN THE EVER LOVING F**K DOES THAT S**T F***ING HAPPEN?

ED seems to have some holes in its spacetime continuum. I guess one of those holes attached itself to your fuel tanks. Bring a fuel scoop and some duct tape next time.
 
so, did your ship blow up?

No attempt to make light.

It is more serious than most people imagine.

Soo many of the DC's and colored snakes are about EDH or EDO trying to exchange data in order to get or store data.
The DC's being indicators of either inability to connect or could not save or could not get.

All the time, the game moves on with other cmdr's making changes or failed attempt's to do so.

The DC's being either data missed/lost or opposite. But no Error catch in order to make 100% sure you did not lose or gain something from nothing, or nothing from something.

I know none of this helps you.
Just more of, I really wish they could/would turn off EDO, so that EDH can stop getting more damaged by the minute.
And then Take the time required to patch EDO in correctly.

It makes no sense from any perspective to watch EDH circle the drain so EDO can attract new customers and then follow EDH.

Fini with the hijack.

I can only say that if you stick to EDH, chances of the DC's might be less. but that's probably not true anyway.

Each thing we do from either game that causes a DC is simply something that someone else did not do yet, so, new error to one person = non-existant to another, so far.

I don't play much at all anymore as this experience is the worst gaming experience I have ever had and I don't want to let them affect me ever again.

But while I do still play somewhat, I have discovered that because I don't care about BGS anymore, the instant I sense a DC coming I now CLOG the entire game/launcher.
The perspective being, I just did something and now that is about to vanish due to poor programming.
OK, nothing I can do about it.
But, I have less than no desire to sit here watching the servers play tag only to fail anyway. This = my time 100% wasted for whatever effort I just did.
CLOG simply gets me back in the game faster. I already know I lost something.

The entire game is this now.

We/You have no idea what is next.

Sorry for your loss if your ship did go boom..

I ALWAYS have a fuel scoop, and I had extra tanks just for this run. But here is the thing. A fuel limpet is a one shot item. It transfers exactly 1 ton of fuel to a ship, and then expires. So having only 8 fuel limpets, and 48 tons of fuel, at worst I should have been left with 40 tons of fuel, but instead, I was left with ZERO tons of fuel, and 3 limpets still.

Ship didn't blow up, thankfully the FuelRats got to my refueling rescue run, before " I " ran the last sliver of fuel dry.

Not sure what EDO, EDH or CLOG is, but I suspect it has something to do with the game.

Personally I REALLY love this game. More so than I ever loved EVE Online, and seeing as I just gave my main character with 105 million sp, and 35 billion isk worth of assets to a friend who also plays eve, my eve days are done. I won't be going back. But I have come to the conclusion that the Fdev team, over complicates things, just for the sheer pleasure of making something that 2 clicks would manage, now have 6 clicks, etc. They are OBSESSED with making things harder to do, not easier.

That being said, at least they have a mostly solid vision for the game, unlike CCP had for eve (scattershot developing all over the place and 3/4 never got implemented because shiney yay, but broke, bad.
 
I have no idea what kind of cybertronic tomfoolery happened to you comrade. My best wishes on you and your friend as you journey through the galaxy. Be warned though. The framework of this game is infested with tenacious mutant termites. A special breed of franken bugs that scientists at Frontier concocted in their labs and accidentally unleashed onto the players. Dont get too attached to anything or set your expectations too high.
 
EDH = ED Horizons
EDO = ED Odyssey
CLOG = combat log = Kill program, prevent further time wasted awaiting snake color definition. aka stop spinning for no reason other than to waste my time please.
Not a CLOG fan, its wrong, but I am CLOGGING a colored snake. really don't care. Yes, I know why its spinning, I do NOT care.
It gets me back to where I was fastest.

Glad you did NOT go boom.
