well we all must have known it wouldnt last forever.
generally when they introduce new content, yeah there are bugs.
historically fdev has done a pretty good job of clearing them bugs up tho, from what ive seen.
sure there are some that have been there forever.
all games have bugs tho, and imagine if bethesda was working on this instead lol.
perhaps the goal for them IS to drive the old crew away and attract more general appeal players.
but we all should have known from day one the game would not last forever. one day all servers get shut down.
yes there are 1 or 2 games that have been going strong forever... but they are the exception that prove the rule.

This is true, old and lost its luster, so to speak, and no longer Frontiers flagship but it can still be one of those exceptions. If players will start pushing Frontier back to its core concept of a space flight simulator it has the potential. EDh was a perfect example until the company started to cater to players unrealistic and stupid demands.

Blizzards World of Warcraft, untouchable in its genre due to its dedication to its core concept. No Consoles.
WarGamings WoT, WoWs, WoWp, all untouchable due to its dedication to its core concept. No Consoles.
Until they finally went out on a limb and made one specifically for Consoles. Nice touch on that one.
CCP Games Eve, untouchable due to its dedication to its core concept. No Consoles.
Leaders in their genres and so successful they have been able to ALL go Free to Play, even WoW to a level cap, but still free.
All leaders and decades old due to sticking with their core concepts of the product.
Frontiers EDh was a perfect example of being untouchable in its own genre of a space flight simulator until Frontier catered to the unrealistic and flat-out stupid requests of the unexperienced players in this genre. Sadly, Consoles were the problem. The Odyssey Massacre was proof of that hence the leveling out of a nosedive due to dropping Consoles. But Frontiers EDh DID support Consoles up until the company let them change the core concept directing the game to arcade instead of simulator. The first true simulator driven title to support Consoles. Amazing job but failed due to catering. What did the Consoles get out of their unrealistic demands? Dropped.

Now please, don't get me wrong here. Console platforms are leaders in arcade FPS and amazing graphic engines, that can't be debated. But sadly, Console platforms can't and never will compete against PC platforms due to proprietary architecture versus open architecture. $500 dollars limited versus $5,000 dollars unlimited.
I'm glad you pointed out the exceptions to the rules as Frontier could make a comeback if they listen to the experienced players, maybe. So long as they don't screw up any further and go pay to win.
Bethesadas Starfield is the only real competition coming up. Frontier knows simulators but Bethesada has had time to be considered experienced with the FPS aspect and almost 15 years of secrete development with a company that is experienced with simulators plus I liked what they did with the Fallout franchise. Personally, I hope Frontier has an ace in their pocket, I like EDh 10x more.

I guess we'll have to wait and see. But until then thank all of you for input and support to Elite. Keep Frontier aware of bugs and stay logged in and flying...o7 Commanders.
Thank you @playerwon for your feedback as I see your points are from one of those experienced gamers... o7
