Know what i haven’t seen in a while? People’s cockpit setups. I’m debating hooking my PC to my 4K 55” TV, then getting a wireless keyboard to sit in front of my TV with. But at the same time, I already have VR.

Ha! Just bought this joke of a game for 7 on PlayStation network and guess I wont be seeing any value out of that investment. New starter experience is horrible at best, toxic at worst. Well played developers/designers, Im sure in your heads, on your design boards and in your original sales pitch you envisioned a rich and thriving community of online players. epic fail.

Load game spend a considerable amount of time doing the training missions in what is the most tedious and boring training mission known to humankind. Launch into the actual game, fly a mission to transport medical kit to a location, get some credits. Fly another mission to deliver coffee to a location jumping from galaxy to galaxy in a sleep inducing bore fest only to arrive at the destination attempting to stop close in what is the worst, tedious and most yawn inducing navigation/flight mechanic Ive experienced ever only to then be bullied by some toxic scum demanding I let them scan me or give them 9k cr or 3t of cargo (none of which I know how to do anyway) for them just too destroy the ship Im flying and put me back at square one.

Ive played some bad games and given youre members of this Reddit I suspect you will all vigorously disagree with me but this is down there in the gutter with the worst.

If I had a say in any sort of cross platform global game development I would put forward a motion that all game designers and their subsidiaries have to log in and play this just so they avoid the same horrible approach.

Even at 7 I feel ripped off.

There should be a hunger/thirst mechanic that you satisfy by synthesizing exobiology you find on planets

Think about it, it makes absolutely no sense that CMDRs can be out in the black for weeks, months, years at a time with no additional supplies. Having to synth food would address this and add another reason to do exobiology. Go up to a brain tree or cactoid and scan it for your sample, then punch it and knock bits off that you can pick up, or scoop in your SRV (if you shoot it with SRV lasers it will cook the food and provide +25% hunger satisfaction).

You might want to consider a different ship unless you're 100% set on Beluga. Large ships are bad because you will need to use SRV more. If you don't care about getting "every" plant, then it might not be a big deal.

You want something fun to fly and easy to land.

A lot of my favorite games have insane flaws that get harder and harder to overlook the more I play them. Except for F.E.A.R., that game is perfect.

What does this mean and can it be done on console? It sounds like something I'd like.

I loved my Asp Explorer in FFE, and honestly it's doing pretty drat well for me in E:D too, although I have enough money now that I am about to buy another couple of ships just to try them out a bit.

Also, it means absolutely nothing from a gameplay perspective, but I am kind of sad that you don't have NPC crew anymore except for fighter pilots, I kind of liked the immersion of having to hire people to crew the larger ships (the Anaconda required a whopping eight to operate). Graduating to my first ship that required me to hire a crew for it was neat, it added to the sense of progression more so than just changing the stats. Hell, maybe keep them optional but let me stick 'em on turrets for an accuracy bonus or tie some other kind of buff to them, so it's a tradeoff you can make.

I've not played since pre-Odyssey, have I missed much? I've been reinstalling to scratch the space itch.
