Telsnow Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 This thread is for everyone who doesn't like the new expansion to share their thoughts on why they don't like it. Anyone who likes the new expansion can go start the GSF Love Thread instead of posting here. Arguing about subjective opinions is a waste of energy, so if you don't hate GSF, please don't post; the internet doesn't need anymore trolls inciting a flame war. With that being said, I hate GSF because it feels incredibly slow-paced. There's not a lot of action it seems; just a ton of flying in circles and maybe blasting an enemy ship a couple times doing piddly damage to it. It feels like it takes forever to get kills. There's no excitement factor. The trailers for GSF look way more exciting than what was delivered. It feels like false advertisement. "Exciting and engaging dogfights!" they said. "Slow and boring slugfights" is what we got. I re-subscribed to the game specifically for this expansion based on the first trailer they released. It got me pumped. But now that it's here, it feels like an underwhelming disappointment. How do you other haters feel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diefenbaker Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 so if you don't hate GSF, please don't post; the internet doesn't need anymore trolls inciting a flame war. Then why are you starting one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikinai Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I love GSF. He's so dreamy, how on earth could you hate such a dreamy expansion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Telsnow Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 Then why are you starting one? I'm not starting one. I'm giving everyone who doesn't like GSF a place to post so they aren't derailing the threads that praise the expansion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImpactHound Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Then why are you starting one? I think it would be reasonable to lump criticisms and hate posts into one consolidated thread. And if you don't like it, don't look in this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infernixx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I really like the CM aspects of GS. Gives a great deal of customization and ability to stand out from the crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malastare Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I don't hate the GSF. And I don't see why anyone would start a threat on a discussion forum with the explicit desire to suppress alternative views. That sounds like a bunch of people who just want to get together and convince themselves that they're right and everyone who disagrees is ignorant. And that behavior has to be just about the most destructive sort of thought I can find in the world: The attempt to purify thought and opinion is the basis for some of the world's most disgusting crimes, and the cause of thousands of tiny annoyances and prejudices every day.

I thought parts of it felt slow, but I think that was just my ship. Other people seemed to be zipping by very fast! And, once we get good at the controls, the dogfights really will be epic at times. Also, might want to reserve judgement until February, when the full release hits. Just sayin'... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quotable, I just hope people take it seriously in the opposite context when someone has a criticism and they are blankly accused of trolling. Maybe you'll like it more as you get used to playing it.

Also, might want to reserve judgement until February, when the full release hits. Just sayin'... If you play strike or gunship first, the slowness is really apparent. I definitely recommend Scout once people get used to the controls. Edited December 3, 2013 by ImpactHound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infernixx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 another thing that really stands out is how the make it incredibly simple to just make a char and get started. You don't even need to get to lvl 10 and get your ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone who likes the new expansion can go start the GSF Love Thread instead of posting here. You don't get to dictate what people can or cannot post. Well, you can try, but you will fail. I have no intention of even trying it because I don't like PvP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JimG Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I always get a laugh out of the people who post a thread and then try to lay down some sort of rule that you can only post if you agree with them, lol. If you don't want anyone who disagrees with your opinion to post, then the internet probably isn't the place for you. When you post your opinion on a public message board, you are opening your opinion up to criticism and disagreement. If you can't handle that, then maybe it's better not to post at all.

It really does feel like a really advanced AI-based PVE game. The only thing that breaks that immersion is the big "So-and-So has killed Infernalism" that flashes across my screen when someone gets me.

Telsnow Posted December 3, 2013 Author Share Posted December 3, 2013 I didn't think it felt like PvP the way ground PvP does. It's just ships and satellites to shoot at, as far as I'm concerned. Yea it doesn't feel like PvP. The only time I have to use twitch reflexes is when my ship is about to fly into an asteroid lol.. the scout flies faster, but it's damage is terrible. I was a beta tester and I provided the same feedback, but I also took into consideration that it was beta. Things haven't changed. At least they took the bomber out, but Space PvP in general feels so much slower paced compared to avatar PvP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorei Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I don't really hate it, I'm just not interested in it at the moment. However, I wish they would not keybind new panels. I'm not happy about having to change it on 35 toons. As it is now, H is keybound to both, a skill and the Hangar on all my characters...

ZETA_SCORPII Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I don't like it but I'm sure many do. I checked it out and really won't spend much time on it, it's not bad, just not my cup of tea. I'll be playing it mainly when I'm leveling chars until there is a pve option. I suppose if I play it a lot more I might get hooked but tbh I really can't get into it, I find myself wanting to do ground missions more. Props for the expansion though!

BhubbaFetish Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 this is a pvp expantion, there is nothing new at all for pve. if it keeps the pvp people happy, good for them. but it means dick to me. i want free flight pve space missions, thats what i was waiting for. i don't like pve. it would be nice if they could put something in for everyone, instead of making the whole thing pvp centered.

I knew I was going to get posters like you with the typical "you're not my dad!" crap. Of course I can't stop you from posting. I never thought I could. I was only trying to discourage it. This is a negative feedback thread. I know it's going to attract the apologist fanboy Bioware defense brigade. You're not allowed to not like anything Bioware does on these forums without getting swarmed. But I started this thread to consolidate all the negative feedback in hopes of reducing it in other threads where people want to talk about how much they like it. Of course, it's an exercise in futility, but it's worth a try. Edited December 3, 2013 by Telsnow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or perhaps, if you wanted to be taken seriously, you could have phrased it not as a hate thread, but as a suggestion thread as to what is wrong with GSF.

kirorx Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I felt it was slow at first but its seems fast the more I play, that being said the game has been out for a couple hours, just wait untill you get some upgrades because that will probally make a huge speed difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
