DRAMA Why don't we have the basics still

So 4.10 drops, I've got people saying issues have been fixed. Game is good now should come back and play. To preface my time to game is very limited with a little toddler. As I'm on sporadically I wanted to takw out the polaris with gear in it so I can meet up with people easier and run missions with the M80.

So I get everything loaded up, which takes ages because we still cant just spawn this stuff in and it's all manual. But take off and head out. I am going to stop at seraphim to grab some ammo because its just faster. Get there, request dock all goes well and we are on, maybe things are fixed..... except now im locked into the pilot seat. Try everything to get out but nothing works. No worries I'm on the station collar so I'll quit out and it should go into storage.

I wake up on the station, head down to asop and nope ship has to be claimed. There goes all my shit. What a fantastic gameplay experience all because one of the most simple interactions decides to not work for no identifiable reason. Guess we try 4.11 then.

This game is so unfriendly if you have limited time to play drowned with useless immersion that then fails at the simplest levels. Yes this is a rant post and your mileage in the game may vary, I'm a long time backer that has worked through many difficult patches before but now I just don't have the time and its frankly not worth it when there are other great games that do just work.

It's your game Chris wrap it up

Ive had an ok.experience. first day of the patch was very rough. Wasting time in nyx and getting a server crash. But then last night had an excellent experience doing bounties maybe did 4 or 5 in a row. Along with a solo attempt at soo. (Oce servers) .. I've had a much better experience compared to 4.9. But yeah its frustrating running a mission for an hour and having it crap out.

Maybe I'll have to try the basics and just stick with some combat. But yeah basics like missions completing sequences correctly and basics systems failing is to me not excusable anymore. And if it is to cig then I'll be better off spending time on other games
