Jack Dekerdt[quote=Kurotama]I've been reading the thread Artie linked to in his New Year's message. The "isolationist" crowd has me scratching my head. [img]/js/sce/emoticons/getlost.png[/
Agreed.
My ship, in 3301, ought to contain a lot more info than it does. MSFS provides more information for their Cessna than FD does for my DBS. Since all the information is in the game, I'm really unclear on the statements by others that using 3rd-Party apps is cheating and violates the 'spirit' of the game. I would be willing to bet if the info was in the ship the isolationists would be the first ones using it--I sincerely doubt they are going to ignore it and continue to blindly fly around 200 systems trying to remember where a rare commodity is or a specific ship part--it just seems counterintuitive. At the end of the day, we pay our own money to play the way we want, right? I quit reading the forums a while back because it was all just people wanting to impose their style on everyone else. If a player doesn't want a 3rd party app, cool, don't use it but don't tell me how to play or call me a cheater because I prefer a more productive use of my session time than flying 150LY off course because I miss-remembered where a ship part is located.
Hear hear. I'll bet it's the same group that calls solo players "pussies" just because they wanna be left alone.
