>finally get around to buying pic related on xbox>find out the servers are down forever
>>730922617Shame
>>730922617they're not down forever just temporarily - this kind of thing happens from time to time it's normal
>>730922617the only thing that brings me joy in this game is exploration. I wish I could go further than salome's reach. I wish I could pathfind a route into andromeda, beyond the support of where any carrier could ever go
>>730922617Dont worry even when servers worked you"d meet another human once every 3 months, the galaxy is empty
>>730922617>XboxYou fucked up. It stopped getting updates and new content years ago. Only the PC version gets those now
>>730922617If they're down it must have just happened since I was playing it three days ago fine
>>730924553just like irl life
>>730922617Why do I hear online hat this game is simultaneously amazing and extremely shitty
>>730924816It's like Subnautica where the sound design is like 80% of what makes it great.
>>730924816If you're an astronomy autist its a dream come true, the galaxy is yours to explore. The problem is 99 9999% of star systems are empty with nothing to actually do other than map the planets
>>730924553It's not just that it's empty, it's the fact 99% of the playerbase plays on the solo mode or just with friends and the 1% that doesn't is just spawn camping engineer systems waiting to gank any retard who doesn't play on the solo mode
>>730924816It has stuff for pretty much anyone, but you have to figure it out on your own time with a steep learning curve. Some like to explore, while others dogfight. Some want to mine or grind, while others communicate with the community to get their political powers ranked higher. This game actually has some interesting lore behind the universe, but the updates aren't always about that.
>>730924816You'll never finish the game. Never. there's 5 trillion stars or so. Ever star in the milkyway is here. but you have to understand it's all copy and pasted.
>>730925101I play on the dangerous multiplayer mode because im not a pussy bitch whos scared of a few gankers
>>730924816it was focused for the first two years of development back in 2014. that is where the most memorable elements of it came out>the cockpit UI design and focus on ship flight model and sound designit lost focus after that with only a handful of highlights in the decade since its initial surge>the exploration and mining update>the thargoid introduction and combat>thargoid capitol ships (titans)>seated VR with traditional controlseverything else has been a wet fart and wasted time/resources. Most of the time left half finished or abandoned outright>ship carriers>squadrons>powerplay>engineering>multi-crew>almost everything including landing, including SRVs. Sole exception is exploring the thargoid abandoned bases>"colonization">culminating with Odyssey, the fabled space legslast one put them in a 37 million pound hole they are still trying to climb out off. The CEO D.Braben resigned over the massive failure. while the outsourced shooter pew pew is so bolted on you can play ED normally and never interact with it now with the new management ED is pretty stagnant in company sheets so they only focus on MTX and new ship kits to sell as limited offer premium. While most of the companies resources go into the theme park management games
>>730924947>99.9999% of star systems are empty with nothing to actually do other than map the planetsso just like real life
>>730924816Because it had gigantic potential and the retarded devs squandered it completely. Fucking Star Citizen delivers better than Elite.
