What DDF Proposals would you like to see Frontier work on?
- Thread starter Alien
- Start date
I need persistant things in my 'game world', for the immersion etc, but i wonder if the P2P basis of ED can actually handle that? The MP compromises are a big part of my current disinterst in the game (vs FFED3D currently), and i just wonder if that MP framework can actually work with many of the DDA stuff, that is my main concern for ED.
You're correct and it won't. P2P "instances" don't allow it, unless FD follows the "weekly update" formula they are currently using. Won't that be fun?
I think - no I know - that David and Michael know FFE, and they know exactly why we still love the old game. They know the DDA and know what's on the list. But remember, that E : D is a project meant to live at least 10 (TEN!) years. In ten years a lot can change. From background infrastructure to design overhauls.
Anyhow the first successful step seems to be done. The game was released and feeds (pays the bills for) more and more developers.
more devs means more ideas and higher chances to get off the path, but on the other hand also increases the chances to only widen the path.

Yeah, interesting to see how obsessed people are when it comes to browsing the bins
We have to add a new feature called "Second Hand Bazaar" very soon after these salvaged treasures are piled up by the SC roadside...
I like how the list goes.

Raw word on the subject from you....
Ah, sorry, my wording may have been ineffective - I was reflecting to the salvaging option not the DDF itself
Corrected (reduced the quote I used to the point).
I really can't be bothered to read through the DDA again for what is, in all likelihood, a wild goose chase. But the biggie to me, is the transponder. FWIW, I don't think Module storage was a DDA suggestion: FD were dead against that sort of thing. I'm not sure FD ever formally had multiple CMDR slots in the DDA proposals either.

Sandro Sammarco did indeed discuss it apparently:

If I do another poll, it won't be labelled as DDF proposals, just which features you'd like Frontier to work on.

Poll Question: In-depth game play. Answer: Y/N
I've added it to the list in the first post.

Adam Lusardi said:
"In depth" definition is in the eye of the beholder. Current iteration of the game already offers plenty of in depth gameplay options should one care to try them. The fact you may not like them does not mean is not in depth.
Your proposed question also is vague and lacks specificity in the first place, and is therefore shallow and has no depth in itself. Might aswell have proposed:
"Poll Question: The game that Adam Lusardi wants. Answer Y/N".
Much more useful to describe actual mechanics.

The mechanics you mention are in the DDA. Its just how you flesh these out. The quote empty room just putting in the furniture in or something like that springs to mind. Starting with Tier Two's and their interaction in play.
Looking at those results shows unless they do all of them, there would still be lots of unhappy people. Thankless task.
Not necessarily....the poll was for what people would MOST like to see.....tbh I would love any of them to be worked on.
