lol

Seems people don't like it even for free



There seems to be some sort of movement on Steam to trash the game. A recent patch improved the NPC AI so you were no longer shooting fish in a barel and rather than adapt a lot of players loudly complained and demanded the AI be downgraded as AI that fights back apparently ruins the game. This was mostly people who had used exploits or crutches to obtain lot of money and bought huge ships they had no idea how to actually fly. Admittedly a quickly fixed weapon bug made it all worse.



Reviews on Steam have always been mostly unfair as many bought the game without any research and expected it to be something very different. A lot complain it is too hard to learn yet refuse to go through the tutorials and youtube vids (there was next to no guidenace when I started). A lot of others expected some scripted storyline depite the fact that no Elite game has ever really had one.
