    so what you guys are saying is that the game is best played with either a Xbox remote or a Joystick with some extra buttons?

    Pretty much yeah, though it's also completely doable with keyboard mouse.

    Nothing like being scanned while having a huge bounty and coming into a station for hot landing....

    Just thinking out loud here.

    But could the fact that I don't ever come across other CMDR's be due to the fact that it is such a large immense world, and that maybe I'm in a "cold" area as opposed to being in a high traffic location in terms or real life people. Surely people tend to huddle together to exploit the games systems/mechanics to it's fullest?

    Or do you think it will get better with the Wings update?

    I have taken measures to ensure I would see CMDR's, like forwarding ports and disabled router firewall etc to make certain protocols have access.

    When I still played a few weeks ago I was convinced that FD was artificially creating congestion. I actually had to wait 15-20 minutes to get a parking bay at one station due to a ton of commander just sitting there waiting for it to clear up, and that was 100+ LY away from my starting spot. Which made no sense to me whatsoever.

    But if you aren't seeing anybody at all, either you are truly in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps the amount of players has just plummeted.

    From everybody in here, it seems like you are the only person really still playing...
    When an anti-piracy method is affecting the game for people who legitimately bought it and causing other people not to buy the game, there is obviously something wrong with it!

    That's what I was hoping for.

    That's what I was afraid of!

    BeoTek did you resolve your crash issue?

    https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=114072

    Some Commanders are in systems that cannot currently be retrieved from the server database, which has been causing crashes when loading into the game. We're working to identify and repair the systems affected, which includes a change to automatically report the problem system and exit back to the main menu with a load failure message.

    Just something I read over at /r/EliteDangerous:

    This is it. The end of CMDR ItchyNipples... I tried logging in last night and found no players in any of the usual popular places. Then I tried again today with the same result, multiple times. I then was successfully able to log in via a friend's account to the exact same space station, on the same computer and immediately, and repeatably found other players. So I can only conclude that the day is finally here! My goal is complete, and the community has what they want! I have been banned, and I accept it implicitly.


    Now, could this be why I am not seeing anyone, EVER!
    I have been playing this game (and sure, having fun with it) since Thursday evening, non-stop. Now I can't believe amongst all my play time recently, that 1) I am in such a secluded area that I am no seeing a single sole, or 2) the player base has dropped that drastically considering all the people in the world that are playing this.

    Probably just another bug then that they will look at in a few months once enough players complain about it. Their QC standards really need some work.
