Newcomer / Intro Starting System

I also started in LHS 3447 Trevithik Station. Next spawn or so was in Eravate I think. I left very quickly and flew a long way.

When ED went live a few friends and I decided to re-roll and start anew from the alpha/beta days.

First was not impressed with LHS 3447, we decided to keep re-rolling til we got something we liked. Well after 40+ re-rolls and getting LHS 3447 "EVERY" time. The comment "Random Federation Start" should be removed FD Dev's take note!!! Cause there is no random start and my ticket about it was replied with "Working as intended" LMAO.....OK!

But once you move to Eravate, life isnt bad and I quickly found some good trade runs etc to branch out, now I am rolling in credits I can not bother to complain any further on the silly start that seems to be broken for new players/re-rollers!

Though in the end, since it seems most people started there, it is good in open to see plenty of Cmdr's flying about the local systems often :)
 
I think it depends on at whitch time you purchaced the game... I bought mine sometime in late septemper early october(don't remember the exact date) but after the Beta testing was over(or so I thought) and the Gamma 1.0 startet(the last time the game was reset) I startet in the Aiabiko system where I still have a fully kittet Cobra stored before I left the system to find better grounds for trading even though I mostly do bounty hunting now a days in my Viper....
 
I have no idea. Only had one restart and just set straight off out elsewhere so I really couldn't say where I started unless it happens to be where the freagle lives.
 
I don't know.
I took my Freewinder and went " --> " that way.

I would like to find out though, but I don't think the game saves that information.
 
Also started in Trevithik Station - LHS 3447. Problem of this system is that the stations are all far away from jump point, so I moved operations to Cleve Hub in Eravate. Explored the systems around and two weeks later I'm still there with good trade runs between Industrial, Agricultural, Refinery and High Tech, all maximum 2 jumps away from each other. Also doing bounty hunting at Nav Beacons with an Eagle for the fun (trading full time can get boring... :) )
Just about to have the 1M Cr. I need to buy my Cobra and go discover the world outside.

As a 1984 player, first move will probably be a pilgrimage to Lave... ;)

I did exactly the same as you. The distances are just a pain in LHS 3447 and so moved to Eravate and now kinda call Cleve Hub my home. Been working on trying to get the Eravate Network (fed aligned) influence up but it's seems it not an exact science at the moment. I did loads of 60T trading for a week at Cleve Hub about a month ago and wasn't sure if it was making a difference as nothing seemed to change. All of a sudden their influence rocketed up to 76% or something overnight. But for the past couple of weeks it has dropped down to 46%, with Independent Eravate Free (controlling indy faction) sitting at 49%. Been reading a lot more about the mechanics of influence over the past week and have discovered there are loads of different ways to change influence (some not as obvious as you would think). Going to try and implement some of them over the next week or so and hopefully play my small part in educating the population of Eravate that the Federation way of life is far better than their current mundane existence! :)
 
LHS 3447 Marcus Trescothick station. I legged it as well, straight to empire space. Federation and alliance space has a strange smell...."In space, no-one can hear you sniff"

You should drop by some day to catch a wiff of burnt metal as you eject. ;)
 
started out in everate or something other. pilgrimage up to lave then pilgrimage back. docked my t6 got a viper and now im down where the inheritance scandal is taking place im about to go over to the empire systems and see about getting a clipper.
 
LHS 3447 - Dalton Gateway. I still pop in and out of the system as I can have a smoke while cruising to the nearest station!
It feels like popping home to visit relatives as it's where I first gained some rep and got friendly with "The future Of LHS 3447".
