It's been a while since I posted here, I was one of the complainers about low level module scarcity and the lack of a multi jump route system- and am glad both of these things made it into the game.
I've been playing hard and having a really fun time and have had many memorable experiences within this wonderful game world with only a few things that have detracted from the experience (the buggy branching missions for example)
I worked hard getting and tricking out my cobra before working for my asp... I've only had it for a day and was trying to get to grips with just how heavy it is and wanted to do another day or so of rare trading and missions in the Lave system to get modules for my exodus to the one of the nebulae "nearby".
Then blew myself up by throttling too hard when exiting a spacestation and clipping the letterbox.
oh well, about 50 ton of rares and a whole bunch of bounties and exploration data lost, as well as the missions that I was ticking off... Yeah it cost me dear and knocked me down to 200k but I got back on the horse and tried to recoup my losses.
Jumped to Zaonce and got jumped by a "harmless" asp CMDR who was anything but! No warnings, no threats he just opened fire and I got my asp kicked... Then the police showed up AS WELL as another CMDR.
"wow" this was shaping up to be another story, my shields were down, my canopy had blown but I MIGHT just survive this, and would have done so with the help of another nice commander (also piloting an asp)
nah, he just opened up on me with quad missiles. Deadz.
i stared at the screen in a shock filled rage and saw my insurance screen with a big red button to declare bankruptcy or scrap a load of my expensive gear so the loan would cover my ship.
So I sucked it up, chose to keep only the most expensive modules which I then sold or replaced along with my asp hull. Went to get my old trusty cobra which, incidentally, I had never died in and was stored in Zaonce of all places (yeah, I was checking all the players in the system) and I have decided to earn some more capital before changing ships again and keep my old ship with all its systems intact.
However, selling my asp got my about 7 million, and you know what?
If I could put that down as a galaxy wide bounty on the one who did this to me I would!
In a heartbeat!
