I prefer Fett's Vette because you gotta make the money, credit's no good when the jawas run the shop in your neighborhood.

In case you didn't know, Frontier is now 41 cents away from becoming a penny stock.

I promise to remove all bugs from their crap within a year if they hire me for £200k a month, replacing the whole department of those junior amateurs they have now. Maybe moving the whole stuff to a modern game engine (£300k a month, lol). But that's not going to happen since the game is literally condemned.

It seems like they're hitting the lowest lows, no fancy park building simulator could bail them out of that crap.

I expect Tencent to swoop in for a hostile takeover.

And I hope the guy who banned me from the forums gets fired first.

Gah. If that happens, I'd never return to the game.

Huh it's almost like cutting off a huge chunk of their player base was a bad idea. That combined with the ridiculous Thargoid "war" and lack of other relevant content since the failure of odyssey they have been on a down hill spiral. With last ditch efforts to bail out a sinking ship

Tencent took over Funcom a while ago. Didn't do any harm to Conan Exiles. In fact I'd say the game is in better shape than before. Getting major updates every few months.

Btw, Odyssey's recent reviews are "mostly positive." I wonder if that's related to the Starfield launch. NMS also got a mysterious player boost recently.

Odyssey has been optimized a lot recently. Maybe Frontier should give the console port another try.

I'm... not exactly feeling fond towards Chinese companies and their major videogame-building guidelines.

Optimization is not the issue I have with odyssey. The issue I have with it is they tried to make an FPS and they clearly had no idea what they were doing. There are a ton of balance issues with the game. Foot soldiers can over power a fully engineered G5 prismatic cutter. They are nearly in vulnerable to ship damage, SRV are a wet noodle versus them. The weapons fire unreasonably slow(seriously a visible sniper shot? What the heck?) Suit engineering makes no sense, like oh you upgraded this armor and don't like the enhancement lol cool buy a new one and start over because you are stuck with that upgrade forever. It's seriously like the devs took everything they learned since 2014 and threw it all away and said let's just make something. The concept of odyssey is fantastic but the actual implementation of it is subpar

Depends on the company, for example Mihoyo with Genshin Impact is providing the best live service game care I've ever seen. Constantly pushing new content into the game with a very reasonable monetization model. If every company will care about their live service games like them, it will certainly make such games much better name.

Don’t pay any attention to INARA’s “best trade routes” involving the yupini system. Gold, silver and palladium are selling for 10x what INARA says, really irritating I flew 222 Lys here, based on reports saying they were updated 14 mins ago. BS. I’m looking at it now, eg Gold is selling for 44000/ton, inara claims it’s 4100/ton. Same with silver and palladium. I didn’t know this website was so completely useless.
