Newcomer / Intro Fresh out of training

[meanyhead]

Greetings Commanders!
This is meanyhead hailing from Asellus Primus, currently aboard my Vulture resting in LHS 304. I have about 30 flight hours including training and advanced exercises, and I'm really learning how to dogfight in zero G and zero D! The T.Flight HOTAS is awesome. I have finally come to this game on PC, after being aware of its existence for many years and having played on PS4 (it sucked even with HOTAS), with bright eyes and bushy tail.
I plan to conquer the galaxy. I don't even know how possible that is considering all the people I can pledge my allegiance to are NPCs. However, I believe by the time I'm good enough to rule all you plebs the developers will institute me as the galaxy's first player superpower and you will be blessed with the option of pledging your allegiance to me. It might take 6 months or maybe 6 years but my Will shall be done.
Remember my name.

1. We had a competition for a player Powerplay Power some years ago (EG Pilots - Yuri Grom).

2. We can set our turrets to fire at Will.

welcome

Starting with a Vulture? If you can take over a Galactic Power in the game starting with one of the most populalar Asling Duval I'll pledge my 36 engineered ships to your conquering the galaxy. Have a good day.

I give you an A for enthusiasm.

I was gonna say "what did Will ever do?" But then I realized you drew a circle around me, well done Commander you made first on my list.

I don't know what ships are good or not I just set a goal and went with it. However We appreciate your support Commander. The day is good.

I give you an A for enthusiasm.

We do appreciate your support Commander for We have no wish to commit your remains to the void

 

[Hooplah]

So what are you going to do next? Good luck.

o7 Commander!

I welcome you and your enthusiasm!
There might be one or two small obstacles in your path, though: We plebs are not the only plebs in the galaxy. There’s a war going on with the Thargoid plebs. Have fun ruling them! I bet they don’t even know what fun is.

That, and oh, you’ll need about 30,000 real life years to visit every star system just once.

Welcome to ED!

To really hone your skills, may I suggest playing in open and, if you can, approach Jameson's Memorial or Felicity Farseer's planet during a ganker infestation.

With FAoff.

[Ashnak]

Speaking of which - anyone got an idea what happend to @Zarek Null ?

Much appreciated. I am quite relieved indeed. I certainly would not have taken any pleasure if I was forced to pop your balloon.

For now I shall lurk in the shadows of the furthest reaches of the galaxy while following the Saitama Hero Training Program.

Greetings Commander, I have only ever played in Open for that is the reason I came to this Galaxy. I will add your waypoints to my list and pray they are not "Hutton Orbital is Best Starting Station Part 2: Electric Boogaloo." I started KB/M for a few days then switched to stick. FAO practice commences soon.

The time has come indeed, Commander, to see who shall be laughing...

"Many geniuses have defeated themselves through hubris, making this a chance to prove myself better than all of them!"

Yeah, we're a riot for sure. Ask Sally.

We're just a bunch of 60 years olds trying to act like 30 years olds. What?

60? I remember that time. Vaguely.

As an actual 30 year old I think my galactic domination quest just got easier.

Just gotta wait.

to be fair, not all are that old. Some or just 50.

The last time I was only 60 was around the time I started playing the game, the forums were full of people complaining about the NPCs cheating with their self invented weapons and not just sitting in front of you while you shot at them.

As an actual 30 year old I think my galactic domination quest just got easier.

Just gotta wait.

And at nearly that age I first started playing Elite when it released on the Spectrum.

That is so badass, I hope I can say the same in 30 years.
