You're killing your own game, FDev.

CGs never seem to deviate from the formula. There's a CG for truckers, and a CG for people that like to shoot things. Never anything else. And more people go for the shooty CG than the trucker CG.
Last week there was a CG for people who like to shoot things and then truck the bits.
 
Lol, now we have a Mini-Mod keeping things clean. Sa-weet!

Do you have anything else better to do with your life than passive-aggressively insult people?

Christ, you people are like children. Supposedly adults, to boot.

And I never said "FDev killed ED." So any "jokes" of "omg lol now ED's dead cuz he said so" are kind of stupid. The actions of removing what seems like removing half the game to fix fringe cases of the BGS as well as making the remaining bits more tedious feels like they're killing ED, even if their intentions are good.

Ah, yes. I forgot. The Elite forums aren't here for actual discussions and alternate views and opinions. Nope, just mock the guy for it. Let's just treat him like crap and the mods don't give a damn, right?



Every single passenger mission. Reading comprehension, sir.

When were all the passanger missions removed? Sorry maybe it's to do with the fact that what is written down doesn't actually make any sense.

Passenger missions were deactivated in Quince, but not EVERY SINGLE MISSION IN THE GAME.
What exactly does this means. There were passanger missions just the other day that I could do. Where are you trying to get yours?

You know trolling is against the rules, yes?

If you're not trolling, allow me to spell it out for you. I'll even put it in big bold caps for you.

WHEN QUINCE REVEALED A FLAW WITH PASSENGER MISSIONS AND THEIR PAYOUTS, FDEV DID NOT REMOVE ALL PASSENGER MISSIONS IN THE GAME. THEY DEACTIVATED THE RELATED CONTENT FOR QUINCE'S BROKEN MISSIONS AND RELEASED A PATCH CONTAINING THE TWEAKED PASSENGER MISSIONS LATER. WITHOUT REMOVING EVERY SINGLE PASSENGER MISSION IN THE GAME. THEY HAVE DEMONSTRATED THE CAPABILITY OF FIXING BROKEN MISSIONS WITHOUT RESORTING TO SLEDGEHAMMER METHODS.

You know what, forget it. It was a mistake to even try to post something here because God forbid someone post an unpopular opinion and the rest of you lot be mature about it. I'm actually angry the lot of you just see this as an opportunity to let loose because you have nothing else to do except make people unwelcome. Congratulations, you win.

Instead of jumping to bash someone for daring to talk about FDev fixing things, how about we discuss HOW they're fixing it by completely removing gameplay elements and making other money-making methods like bounty hunting more tedious?

That's not tedium that's content.
 
Hey Blaze, chill out.
This isn't really worth fighting over. I agree with you that Frontier seems to be using a bit extreme measures lately, but ultimately: what does another thread about it change?
There's been plenty already so don't take it personally - I sure am not attacking you for voicing your opinion.

I feel frustrated at times, seeing what is done instead of what should be done, but I'm slowly learning to live with it and as a result, the less I really deeply care about, the healthier and happier I feel :) I recommend such approach! :)
 
And yet FDev has shown in the past that they've tweaked or fixed missions without having to remove them entirely. Case in point: Quince. Passenger missions triggered a gold rush. Passenger missions were deactivated in Quince, but not EVERY SINGLE MISSION IN THE GAME.
Right, but that was because in that case it was only Quince causing the problem, due to an extremely unusual combination of system contents in a very isolated system.

Skimmer kill missions: sure, there were a couple of famous systems being used ... but anywhere that generated a lot of those missions (or could be mode-flipped until it did) would have the same issues. There were probably a lot of systems that affected. Several near me that had 3 or 4 on the board at once, in a region not actually particularly favourable for generating them: anyone willing to think about what causes the missions to appear rather than just following the latest trend could easily have found their own system somewhere else - just as Smeaton and others were only found *after* Rhea started the trend in 2.4

Mining missions: any system generating a half-decent number of mining missions (and there are a *lot* of systems where they make up half the board at times) could be used. They have only removed mining missions from the systems which could be exploited, if you want to look at it that way...
 
I guess it's just that "doom" threads are rather unpopular and starting with something like "The game is dying because..." is not being taken seriously by anybody.
 
It is what it is.

After 3 years of ED development, if you can't hang with the way FDEV does things in 2018, it is seriously time for you to uninstall the game and move on.

Those of us who enjoy the game enough to put up with the way Frontier handles things are pretty much fed up with the non stop whining from those who really need to leave.

It ain't ever gonna be the game and the development approach you want. Get a clue already!

Cut your losses and find a game you actually enjoy playing. Your broken record is all but worn through to the other side!

I am not bothered when people who are lobbying for exploits are feeling unwelcome. In fact I hope they leave rather sooner than later.

Like seen here...
Well the problem is that these threads exist since 2012 and the game is still not dead yet. It isn't even dying yet. In fact it seems to be more popular than it was at release...

I already uninstalled the game. Gonna find something else to play until FDev fixes things. The game is absolutely riddled with bugs and "exploits" but they don't seem interested in fixing them. Just removing them or nerfing them instead of fixing the root problems.

I like the game, but I don't want to get invested in a game that the Dev's don't seem to care about.

All I am asking is whether all passanger missions have been removed, because there were passanger missions available just the other day and I have seen nothing to suggest that they have been removed. So please tell me are there no passanger missions at all and when were they all removed.

So no I am not trolling I am just trying to figure out WHAT THE HELL YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. Is that not too difficult for you to understand.
 
Really not sure why its so hard to understand for people why the missions have been temporary removed. They payed absurd amount of money and whatever you may think in regards to income its obvious FD didn't want people to make this much money (which you can disagree with but its a valid stance to have even if you disagree).

Fixing can take time, so they remove them to prevent more exploiting until the fix is ready. And those mission not being available for a while can be a pain for certain people but its not gamebreaking by any means. People act like FD is trying to ruin something when every action they did take shows they try to fix something.

I can't rep you again but pretty much spot on!

We all know they haven't been removed and the OP later elaborated on his remark. Stop trolling was probably code for stop being a smart***.
