Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

A few hours ago I had landed by a crashed ship, I ran out of mine to grab a mission item from a container, and just as I was about to run back to my ship - it all went black.
I wish they'd do the "in-game" server maintenance countdown

Two hours later it said the servers are back on and it took a while to load the game for me and then at the final screen it cound not connect to the server.
I just know I'll be surrounded by hostiles when I get back in!

... and when I got back 3 hours later... time had expired on my missions. DAMN the timing!

Wait, that's on a dark desert highway, right?
Correct. You can feel the cool wind in your hair (assuming you have hair).

Meanwhile, authentication and matchmaking server says no. And a mauve adder or two have insinuated themselves around my ankles. It may be time to stop trying to play Elite today.

Yep... it's all a bit squiffy my end. I'll try again tomorrow./

Well, according to a very informative thread, it was to be 30 minutes. I've been playing Horizons: Forbidden West.

I must be doing something stupid 'cos in the past two days (between server issues and updates) I have been flitting from station to station searching for an Artemis suit with sprint mod - not a sniff - not even any of the other two suits with sprint either. I made sure each station had not been updated since the Thursday server thingie but still no sign in over 40 stations (also there was not a single weapon with a scope mod).

Maybe I need to just load MSFS instead of getting frustrated at this.

It's random. You will start to find them when you stop looking for them.
 
I am trying to get where I am going by jumping the carrier. However, the jump times, it seems, are still awful.

I think, once I complete this stint of exploration, it may be time to decommission the thing.
As long as you don’t need the credits it uses for a few years upkeep why not just park it somewhere? You can suspend the services to reduce the bill slightly.

Its existence doesn’t add to the jump timer issues unless you actually move it.
