First of all I do like some of the new features you added with this last patch but it seems that you guys are really missing the mark and here is a short list of the things that I have found so far.

First trying to finish helping the needy and I went through 20 exploration missions and not a single aid the planet. Is this really how you want to improve the aid the planet mission. seems pointless again to even try and get these mission. Also why don't you open this mission up to all the exploration areas not just Delta.

Second the whole scanner effect going either left or right. I am fly at an object and the scanner goes either to the left or the right not straight ahead where the actual object is. this is rather annoying.

Third the whole new flying out scene is also quite dumb why did this need to be changed from what is was.

While these aren't deal breakers it is the little things that count and enough little things make people go somewhere else so please quit with the little things that make what you guys are doing irritating .

    Aid the Planet missions are in all exploration areas. The Helping the Needy mission is just a low level exploration mission for beginners. I do agree that the frequency of Aid the Planet missions needs to be increased.

    I agree, I think they are attempting to have the scanner animation point towards the object no matter what direction you are facing, it seems something went wrong.

    I see no difference except now your ship avoids obstacles so it doesn't warp into a planet. Its for immersion purposes, and I like the idea. It was a feature that I thought should have been in the game since release and have always wondered why it wasn't there.

    They decreased the frequency originally because people hated them. Now that they've got feedback that people don't hate them, they've said they'll increase the frequency.

    Daily complaints from people about the old way being immersion-breaking. I believe some described it as "quite dumb".
