Hello David,
How long does a given mission will last?
ie. Some missions just have a single work, some will lead you to other missions (longer will be a story arranged by 20 missions (works to do)) ????
How Long will a story (composed by many missions) last?
Pardon my English, I hope I'm been clear enough.

For fun
That said, it could be worth thinking about reducing the impact that solo & group players have on the political simulation.
Unlike community goals, Powerplay is a swinging balance - ie solo players are also balancing solo players.
Yes. I don't personally mind. I've just noticed that it's a sticking point to quite a few players. They feel cheated.
I don't agree, but I understand where they are coming from.
Hi David. I just wanted to congratulate you guys on doing such an awesome job.....and ask when we'll be getting the update
Just seeing a face in the game greatly improves how we can relate to it. Might we see some sort of avatar system eventually for NPCs (perhaps procedurally generated) and one where we can customise one for our own pilot?
Now, this is a question I'd like to see answered, too!
The portraits for faction leaders are a great start. Any chance of expanding the visual representation of characters to Tier 2 & 3 NPCs, too?
hopefully this answer will end all those pvp vs pve threads,
Quite a few real-life ones, like Barnard's Star.
What qualifies a minor faction or any faction to ascend into Power status? Is there a set value? It would just be nice to know where to aim for
Evening David
Me and my father have been wondering if you guys at FD where going to add in a system orrery for in game orbits and such?
The dance of planets and seeing the revolutions of a double binary system in motion or whatever the system contains would be an amazing thing to add depth to the game and to exploring for each individual system.
Anyway thankyou for your time
Off to the black i go
I would hope most of the data is there from generating the great old milky, so implementing it hopefully would be easier....

Will we get more information through the System Map or Galaxy Map in the future, like player traffic, players killed, warzones, power expansion, etc. The old concept for the Orrery comes to mind.
