Well, think what you want, in the end your argument boils down to enforcing your idea of fun on everyone. That hitting a threshold of sorts should always be met with repercussions, retroactively, because that it such an interesting choice. The game didn't do anything like that from 1.00 to 6.20, and now suddenly it doesn't ever offer a choice. That's objectively not a good thing, to break with the status quo like that.geldonyetich wrote: ↑Fri, 3.

I can return your argument right back at you: You can swear up and down that you're a champion of interesting choices that matter, who has nothing but a fun game in mind. But in the end it's just you judging other players and wanting to punish those you deem deserving of punishment.
You don't get to tell me how I should play the game, or how the game should react to me playing it in a certain way, especially not after I played it like that for years without problems.
All I want is what I had for years until now, why is it that hard for you to accept? It's a rhetorical question, it doesn't need answering. I think there's nothing more to be said anyway, my position is clear.
Yeah, the game doesn't even tell you how far along you are with the entire event chain. It could really use some transparency. If nothing else, that is the least they could implement.GCU Grey Area wrote: ↑Fri, 3.

Means I'm now worrying if I buy replacement ships to make up for the losses will that trigger the crisis? Currently getting close to finishing the Scale Plate Green terraforming mission, will the reward for that trigger it? If I take a fleet build mission, will that cross the threshold for the few minutes I own that fleet? & so on.
Really could do with a bit more info on this because the one thing I can't do near those excessively large stations is fight a battle, the frame rate's nowhere near good enough.
