Clearing the slot
18 Feb 2024Eli the Dangerous
Odd how my Sidey gets shot fromunder me when I'm dawdling in the mailslot while a Type Ten can plan a holiday there as long as it's not a pilot with "CMDR" in front of their name. The good old double standard rears its head again.Worse even! If you would take it upon yourself to make a Community Goal station accessible for "CMDR"s you have to break the law and the station will open fire on you!
Now I made a special Sidey with only two mine launchers just for this goal. It's so small it should be able to hide behind the Type Ten Trombosis so it will catch the fire for me. Otherwise I'll gladly sacrifice it in service to my fellow commanders.
I'm pretty sure Azimuth Cambridge knows about this but just like still not being able to keep your control-settings correct and rendering an UI interface only once it's something a tad beyond them. They will probably opt for dangling a few shinies in front of commanders in the hope it distracts them.
(Like an ALL NEW PYTHON with maybe the amazing difference with the previous one: a fighter bay).
I assume they will find their BackLogs in Raxxla one day
I'm not holding my breath. They've been on the NF:NF (New Features : Never Fix) track too long now.I did hear they lost a lot of inertia by listening to alien invaders instead of their market. Maybe they're now light enough to be able to change course (... but I doubt it). I hope it's not TL:TL (Too Little : Too Late) I'm not sure the expression exists in British English.
Anyway...
I had to commit this to writing. Otherwise it'll keep festering inside me and that doesn't make things better. It's out now.
(HAL 9000) "I feel much better now".
Commanders, be well! Clear slots!
