Coolest looking station I've seen - Bixby Port

jacozilla · Jul 12, 2015

After awhile all the dark looking coriolis or other stations start looking the same and it sort of fades into the back ground noise of routine Elite play time.

Then I came across Bixby Station in G 139-21 , Fed Hudson space.

This really awesome looking rust red color against the background of the bright sun - first station I've seen with this steampunk kinda color.

One of the best looking stations... https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=SGrJnxdDbO8

I wish more were like this. I like setting the old spherical stations because they were in the original game but they do get a bit old.

As far as station interiors go, I rather like the imperial looking white with palm trees and parks version of the Orbis (or was it Ocellus?). Like the Trading Post in Delta Phoenicis or Irkutsk at Alioth..

You guys haven't seen the station we used to start at in beta/alpha haven't you?

Azeban orbital.

Eh, that doesn't bother me, they are a little less visible than the usual yellow ones though

Those outposts are still around though, I love the military ones.
Outposts in general have some neat variations.

I still like the really shiny metallic coriolis I sometimes stumble across, with super bright interior lights.
The posted rusted red station is neat too.

One system i love and now call home is Theta Octantis System hosting Nouval Station, it is a lone Station that is inside the ring of a Saturn like planet that orbits a old supergiant star, it is about 22 light years away from Cubo and the planet is a really cool looking Lava type with a old run down rusty Helix space station abut 0.366Ls from the dropin location and surrounded by 4 RES points and 2 conflict zones all in civil war, it's really quite stunning and dark feeling
