Just coming to post on page 100 and say... Free Greg!
Who is Greg? Is it like the sausage roll guys?
Well I don't know about Greg, but Greggs has finally reopened in Ross-on-Wye. Got myself a sausage roll and steak bake straight away. Ah... the taste of civilisation!
I reckon the office cleaners wipe down the todo lists on the whiteboards in the game's offices once a month in the deep clean, as the "after launch" stuff seems to vanish without trace.
All those quotes above had me on edge, I know a lot of VR players are passionate about this topic, and I was worried someone had crossed the line and started making physical threats. No VR No Buy! isn't a threat, its a bargaining position captured into a hashtag friendly slogan.
But if some internet crazy started saying stuff like "if you don't add VR to the game I'm going to do [bad things]" that is a threat, and totally out of line, and I would hope that if anyone seen such a quote somewhere they would have it removed. Not only would it be morally reprehensible to have said such a thing or left it alone and therefore tacitly condoning such comments and behaviour, it would also hurt our campaign.
So I was very glad to see the above resolved as the "threat" is our formidable, terrifying, psychologically disturbing No VR No Buy slogan / hashtag...
I cannot reiterate how important it is to remain polite, constructive and vociferous, we cannot let our passion turn to anger that is then used against us.
I agree. But being called a troll because I don't like some of the terminology that some people are using, well that gone.out the window already.I reckon the office cleaners wipe down the todo lists on the whiteboards in the game's offices once a month in the deep clean, as the "after launch" stuff seems to vanish without trace.

I would hazard a guess that the decision has already been made and they're just not willing to communicate it. Probably don't want to face the fallout
If they don't make VR for Odyssey I swear that... D'OH!So I was very glad to see the above resolved as the "threat" is our formidable, terrifying, psychologically disturbing No VR No Buy slogan / hashtag...

It's been made 100%. If the decision was "yes, we're going to implement and support VR after launch of Odyssey" they would have already told us this.
Damage control 101 pretty much.
I would like to be a mosquito though.. So if they take the wrong decision I can give them something to scratch...

I bet its not bad at all, and its EDO improvements in Horizons. But then I can't understand why it should be considered top secret, its not new content just framing what the update is and its boundaries.
I can't speak for VR, but if I don't get some sort of Powerplay update AFTER SIx BlOoDy YEArs FD are going to get it. Violence? I have something far, far worse.

You will be able to purchase the VR DLC with the wonderful ARX.
Oh crap! then I still won't be able to buy it as I refuse game corporations money laundering scams - have to buy more than you need with enough left over to not have quite enough to get something else you might kind'a fancy (like the banks making millions from all the lost accounts with small amounts in that people never bother closing).
I <expletive deleted> hate corporations!
That's the only thing (other than Odyssey VR support) that will get me buying Arx again.
Hey 100 pages, thats the magic number to get an official frontier response. Oh wait that's 1000. Sorry to get your hopes up.
Its just possible that FD will take OD in a entirely new direction and keep progressing with Horizons. There is a lot of locked permit systems still in Horizons and with Raxxla and a lot of story lines still on the table, could be we end up with 2 seperate games continuing on their merry ways. If that is the case it would be nice to see some movement on Horizons soon.
I think you're over estimating Frontier's level of effort! Odyssey will probably, as they're said be Frontier's biggest update yet, but that's not really saying a whole lot. Each of the last five major updates of No Man's Sky have dwarfed every one of the Elite Dangerous updates in scope.
