Indeed, fully agree, I'm an idealist too in reality, just that I kind of figure which things can/will happen and which things wont, so I push for those which can happen because they require minimun efford and will undoubtly improve playability, rather than waiting for something that never happend, I rather go from 0 to 0,6 than waiting for 1 and never get it., a beta patch to address these for us to test would be awesome.BigBANGtheory wrote:I probably fall into the idealist camp for the simple reason that X3 i.e. Egosoft's track record shows that short term solutions end up being long term, and long term can mean many years if ever plus a distinct reluctance to discuss those topics.
So don't be too harsh on the idealists because short term solutions carry a big risk.
I agree that friendly fire is an issue, maybe try removing it in one of the beta updates so it can be play tested?
Anyone at @Egosoft care to pronounce theirselves? This is why I did this thread in the first place
