    Why are these backgrounds still here? I'm a paying customer and have not been able to play due to these backgrounds making me and many others feel literally nauseous! That's a whole week worth of prem/reb/doubler totally wasted! I will be asking for compensation!

    Can we have a definitive answer as to when these backgrounds will be getting removed:rolleyes:

    The solution to the x-2 map bots was always to have another company send some UFEs to clear them. You can use mines to blow them up too but that will also affect your company's new players. EMP mines use up their cloaks, DDM mines use up their drones.

    This motion sickness effect is a well known problem for about 10% of the population, it's seen in flight simulators, driving simulators (think hazard awareness tests), etc., where the brain attempts to link movement (inner ear balance, touch, etc.) with visual perception. Playing Doom on a company's network of an evening in the 1990s was the first time I encountered this problem, 2 of us out of 16 players suffered & had to cease playing. Taking travel sickness tablets will help, but, I'm certain that it would be safer just to code the game properly so that these effects don't arise (Elite - Dangerous takes a few hours to have the same effect as 10 minutes of playing DO with the backgrounds on for instance).

    Hi all,

    Thanks for your patience.
