Update on Communication

Well I suppose at least there has been some communication from Fdev well @Bruce G, which is a small positive. Still left wandering whether I'm gonna be able to play ED-Oh though (console player) obviously Update 11 is the only topic they can communicate about in the immediate future. I've managed to find a few substitutes while I continue to wait for any further info hopefully won't be too long as would be nice to at least have the streams back if nothing else 🤷‍♂️

Greetings Commanders,

I want to speak directly about the lack of official streams and reduced communications from our social channels since the start of 2022. I understand the concerns this has caused and hope this statement goes some way to alleviate them.

The whole team are excited to share all of the upcoming content for this year including new updates, content expansions and the next major phase in the ongoing narrative following the Azimuth Saga finale. Beyond this, we also look forward to sharing our new streaming format when the series returns as a weekly show. Changes will include new segments, year-round Twitch Drop campaigns and studio-quality production once we move back into the office.

However, there are several questions that must be answered internally to inform this communication plan. It is important to me that we address key subjects by priority and when we do that the information we provide is clear. The team and I are working incredibly hard behind the scenes to gather this information and provide these answers.

As always, the team and I are grateful for your patience and support while we wait for the opportunity to share all of the above with you. We will update you with more detail as soon as we can.

See you in the black o7.

You guys said you were excited to share upcoming content for this year and then nothing, usual I'd say. Yet again we're let down so on and so on.

Apologies for the long wait. I don't expect the fix to arrive in Update 11. When have more specifics to share, we'll do so.

It's been 3 weeks since the OP. That post was written to help alleviate growing concern and yet it's total silence 3 weeks later (aside from the update 11 release date). No news about ongoing plans, no previews of future development, no streaming and new social engagement stuff. How should we be feeling after 3 weeks - does it really take 3 weeks to get some answers? What is going on ??

From what I understand, and long-timers here please correct me if I'm wrong, what we are experiencing now is how FDev have historically not communicated with the forum.

I think last year's communication was unusual due to the exceptional backlash stemming from the Odyssey launch.

I've only been around the forums since 3 Jun 2021 so I may not know what I'm talking about.

Whats going on is that the standard that we expect is vastly higher than what the OP can get away with. Put simply, this part of the job isnt deemed sufficiently important to do properly.

I don't think it's too unfair to say that we get good communications when Frontier are trying to extract cash from us.

The rest of the time .....

In other words, we get good comms when they care about something*

*We all know full well who the exception to this rule is, and I think its pretty obvious thats 100% down to her personal work ethic rather than how she is managed.

Whilst I admit to wondering why communication has finished drying up (It was getting less for several months before stopping, check it out...) and we are back to intermittent interjections into the forum, it hasn't affected my play, quite the opposite, I spend less time here hoping for some utterance from the 'staff' and much more playing in Odyssey - much of that time with a few friends.

Even the darkest days can have a glimmer of sunlight, if one looks for it.
