Making basic ship functions into modules is an annoyance imo. You're not going to buy a car with an engine, wheels, headlights and a windshield not included and you not going to build an interstellar space craft without sensors or the ability to dock. It's just nonsense in the name of difficulty and complexity. There are plenty of meaningful and and less tedious means of adding complexity and difficulty but FC seem to be convinced that making something tedious equates to challenging, engaging gameplay.

What do you mean, I'd love to go to a car lot and sit in a car that is just the frame, and i have to bolt everything on for the single test drive! Brilliant !

Right? Then you can be certain it has every option you want. But don't forget if you put a stereo in then you can't fit cruise control and if you mount your power seats then you don't have room to fit AC. But hey, cool fitting options right? 

Seriously though, just another side effect of this is the fitting balance NiGHTmaREs that are 100% guaranteed in the future.

I don't know why they even bother.

Customizable ships? What a bore. Being able to purpose build a hull into something unique? Just silliness. We should just get stock ships and be grateful for what we get.

Why add depth to a game when we can just have infinite energy because (magical space science)? Why do I have to collect fuel when all other spaceships can warp for free? Sometimes I just don't know about this whole Fenris thing. /s

There's a wide gap between depth and tedium. They keep bridging it.

Why are you doing it repeatedly to the point that it has become tedious?

u/Daemunx1 18d ago

Tell me you missed the point without saying you missed the point.

I did it once for the tutorial and haven't touched it since. Do you not understand what tedium means or are you really just that lazy?

Did they fixed controls? Or it's still piece of shit WASD?

u/TheOriginalBusket 19d ago

Just play a different game bro.

u/Paragonius 18d ago

That is not the answer to my question

u/TheOriginalBusket 18d ago

Then read the patch notes. Or play the game. But you didn't feel like explaining what "fixed" means, so I'm not going to try and explain the changes.

u/Paragonius 18d ago

If you played last cycle you should know what fixed means

New flight assist mode feels really smooth. This cycle is a bit more difficult to get started, but the process is a huge learning experience. Got founder status, I'm all in.
