Elite Dangerous<\/strong><\/em> is a unique space-sim beloved by its long-time players. Although its Odyssey DLC is delayed<\/a>, players still await it patiently and eagerly, since it will add the element of planetary exploration and exploitation.<\/p>\n

Until Odyssey drops,\u00a0Elite Dangerous<\/em><\/a> takes place, for the most part, from\u00a0inside the cockpit of a ship. However, there is another element to the game in the form of Powerplay. This represents a political power struggle in the galaxy of\u00a0Elite Dangerous<\/em> where Factions and Powers vie for control of various systems. Players aid or hinder this expansion through helping these factions, but for a while now players have complained of bots skewing what happens in Powerplay.<\/p>\n

See, the systems that different Powers attempt to expand into and control are decided by votes, with more weight given to those who help the Power more. According to players, bots influencing these decisions is a longtime problem. Unlike the landmark naming contest in Elite Dangerous<\/em><\/a> from a while ago, majority has a huge impact here, and it is easily susceptible to bot manipulation. To combat this,\u00a0162 groups representing more than 20,000 individual pilots have signed an “Anti-Bot Agreement,” whereby they will report and discourage any bot-related activity together.<\/p>\n

<\/figure>\n

The anti-bot charter amounts to a massive agreement not to use bots and to hunt down and put an end to bot activity wherever it is discovered. For the most part, it is likely to set many against one, as there is speculation that the majority of bot activity is the result of one person. In fact, said bot controller\u00a0reaching\u00a0out to one squadron asking for a truce after it cracked down on bot activity was what led to the agreement, uniting players against the bots rather than taking the truce. Rather than let one person manipulate things to get their hands on good stuff like Elite Dangerous<\/em>‘ best exploration ship<\/a>, the community is taking a stand.<\/p>\n

Of course, botting in this manner is hardly the cruelest thing done to players. Newer players are dealing with a mining scam<\/a> that impedes the most active part of gameplay, something that, perhaps, will also see a community effort to correct.<\/p>\n

However, with the devs seemingly not making a huge effort to correct the botting problem, it is heartening to see players uniting against such an exploit. With players taking more control, and Odyssey coming out soon, Elite Dangerous<\/em> may well be turning into the true Star Citizen<\/em><\/a> players have wanted for years.<\/p>\n

Elite: Dangerous<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0is available now for PC,\u00a0PS4, and Xbox One.<\/p>\n
