Friday stats update! Missed this yesterday, so that first. On Wednesday:
441 total cases, 424 successes, 21 consoles.
And yesterday/Thursday:
414 total cases, 394 successes, 16 consoles.
A steady, but small, decline in numbers since the 22nd...
While not as good as actual Snickers for the dispatchers I do have some words of appreciation ...

Number are in for yesterday (well they'ven been up there, but I'm off work now): 469 cases (3 still unfiled), 443 successes, 12 non-PC, and 67 CRs and 42 of them successes.
Epicity is still well alive. It would be at least fair to give each...
1. Complete nonsense - totally subjective and anecdotal.
2. Again you think you can judge others on what you find acceptable - I can assure you that MASSACRE* missions would never be accepted by any of my accounts nor any sort of "wetwork"...
Well that's exactly the point isn't it? The Beluga and Dolphin are purpose built passenger ships. It's like taking "The Princess Of The Sea" putting 6 inch guns on it and sending it into combat, it shouldn't really be possible to turn a passenger...
Yesterday had 478 total rescues and 455 successes. Nine success for Playstation, six for xb.
We got additional data to show too, the case reds:
Pre-rush 19th had 80 cases in total and 10 case reds. All CRs were successes.
20th (275 total), 50...
Check this out, part 2:
Stats from yesterday, 559 cases, out of which 527 were successes. New record, again. Consoles had under 20 cases. Now just waiting for those console Black Friday sales...
The success rate went up from day before, since...
It has naturally progressed into having the EVEN and ODD dispatcher, during these high times, plus couple special occasion considerations for dispatchers and rats, which are at the #ratchat topic.
What's fun is when it happens in a CZ.
The best part is that I've submitted issue reports to the tracker for it, including evidence of NPCs turning on other NPCs on the same side of a conflict zone, and it just ended up marked "expired".
edit -...
Wow, this is quite insane. I think this is the first time theese words have been spoken by Mecha "....(Case #20)..."
Sitting on 21 cases as i write this. They are comming in at an alarming rate (hehe).
I think an OverSpatch could be a good idea at such times. I appreciate us 'non-Spatchers' are usually expected to be able to !prep an incoming client, but during the last couple of days this has proved a bit chaotic with several people all...
Ha, my feeling was right! Case flood!
Hemhem "In the light of recent events ..." Squeak this. At the current peak in case load, we seem to have enough rats and enough Spatches. But as soon as we start multi-Spatching, the situation quickly...
As someone who just got his first pair of reading glasses, this thread saddens me because it hits too close to home! :D
But I agree with the OP! This game needs to be more like Call of Duty and Fortnite! Oh, it also needs QuickTime events!
So one of two things:
1 Why doesn't your avatar show as a Frontier logo nor your post have a "dev post" tag?
2 Will you please share with the forum the winning numbers for this week's £159M jackpot so we can all get a share?
Please don't...
Greetings Commanders!
Game balance has been at the heart of many discussions around Elite Dangerous, for a long time, and rightly so. At its core, Elite Dangerous is about blazing your own trail and we want all Commanders to feel fairly rewarded...
All rocking chairs ready!!! Okay, after we wheelchaired off to help some helpless greenhorns in teh next days ... creaky stuff.
I also sometimes miss the good old verbose Spatching times. Where spatching had been a story by itself ... with...
Well it's certainly been busy today! The text in Fuelrats was scrolling so fast I honestly felt sorry for the Dispatchers! I was having great difficulty keeping up myself and could only imagine what it must have been like for them! I only...
Yesterday set new records. Hold onto your pantaloons when you check this out:
Total cases for yesterday (utc): 506, out of which 455 were successes. Out of successes, 10 cases were playstation, 9 were xb.
The free game rush is real. The failure...
ELITE DANGEROUS IS A NEW GAME, AND AS SUCH NEEDS NEW, IMAGINATIVE PLAYERS. THE ANCIENT, DECAYING WRECKS OF OUR FAILED HISTORY (FRONTIER FIRST ENCOUNTERS, ANYONE?) ARE AS IRRELEVANT TO US TODAY AS THE GALACTIC COOPERATIVE IS TO THE PEOPLE OF 3306...
If I had to choose four SE Asian animals that I think are likely to appear in the game they would be;
- Malayan sun bear.
- Binturong.
- Clouded leopard.
- Siamang.
There are many others I think we would all like but IMO those four seem...
Alternatively, why not Thursday - the Thursday before a Tuesday release was how they did the Australia pack (and revealed all the animals). - of course, that's not how they did the South American pack or Arctic pack, so there's no real pattern...
