To be fair, it's always good when a company is nice to its customers. I was always glad when I seriously hosed up in EVE and CCP stepped in to make it better, for example.

Of course if he does this again and again, I would expect Frontier to stop doing this, but if it was his first time, welp why not?

To be fair the guy wasn't being a dick, it was literally a 'laugh at how stupid I am' post and he got lucky.

Goddamnit nerds.
Anyone live up there? I suggest you go just to experience (what I imagine will be) one of the most cringeworthy spectacles you will ever see.

I go to the Fringe every year so may get to check this out. Only issue is this year I'm going with gf, her sis and husband and her brother, so I don't think they're gonna wanna watch something Elite related instead decent comedy.

There's already stuff to do in supercruise: navigating gravity wells, fuel scooping with heat management, exploring USS, and the threat of pirate interdictions.

Would you like the game better if it's like the current beta where you start with a billion dollars, all ships unlocked, and your station has all the modules and engineer mods available?

Stack all those 200k missions, go to the planet base, kill the skimmers, log out, log in, kill the skimmers, log... Keep doing that until your contracts are completed, kill yourself, respawn at the station, hand in missions, jump up to friendly status, take missions (now you should be getting 7 figure missions), go to plane... Now you should be allied, take missions (now you should be getting the odd 8 figure missions)...

Keep doing until you've broken the game's non existent economy

Some people have no idea what qualifies as an "exploit" anymore. Every part of the 17 Draco pinata is a confirmed working as intended game mechanic. Mission stacking, 6-8 figure payouts, skimmers counting as mission targets, no mission reset on death, all within the design of the game. Maybe it's too powerful as-is, but that's far from an actual exploit. gently caress forumdads!

It's nerfed in the beta, so get the most out of it now.

War lasts 3 or 4 days max when it's one sided like this, it'll end long before Tuesday. The nerf so far in the beta is that skimmer kills will no longer count.

Tuesday is the day the staff will be coming back into work from the Christmas break, if beta is ready to go live I doubt it would be on that day anyway.

Can someone give me an update on the state of the game?

Also, someone told me that engineering was actually fun right now (after previously being terrible), but then someone else told me that Frontier felt there wasn't enough grinding involved and are actively planning to add a lot of grinding to the process, so that if I wanted to play around with it I should do it now. Is that accurate?

Has frontier lifted the grind requirements for any other parts of the game, or is still a merciless sequence of taking frustratingly long to achieve any sense of progress?

Edit: Hoooooly poo poo I made the mistake of looking it up and apparently there are just waves of people complaining to Frontier that Engineering is too easy, happens too quickly, and that the results are meaningless if people aren't required to "really work for it", and almost no meaningful opposition.

Just a little reminder for me about why I stopped playing and why this will never be the game it almost was that I still desperately want, I guess.

Why don't you come chat in your dead gay group's Discord, we'll be more than happy to bring you up to speed

That's cute, we had a fool who was convinced it was garbage because it took 20 mins or so to destroy a conda with his Vulture. He even posted a video as proof.
