UA Mystery thread 4 - The Canonn

Status
Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
Just wondering if any of The Canonn had lost a ship on Merope 2C in Horizons beta, found the remains of an SRV, and the mangled remains of a couple of ships within a few km of each other. The first ship had 2 occupied escape pods, a cannister of narcotics and a canister of tea near by (all the markings of a Canonn scientific research party (I guess the Hobnobs where consumed in the fire, or lost to the cold vacuum of space)). Interesting thing was that the wrecks were very close to each other and I read in another thread that ships/SRVs destroyed on the ground persist, they were also near what looked like an interesting landmark on the planets surface. I would be interested to know if anyone has lost a ship or SRV on this moon, as my wow factor of the game would increase considerably if the persistent ship remains were proved true. Not that there are things in this beta that haven't made me feel like I was 14 and couldn't wait to get home and play the origonal Elite in the first place.
 
Well, surely it is better to have confirmation of negative results from multiple sources in any case.

Yes, but it's much more fun to have confirmation of positive results.

WARNING: Some real science below!!!

I'm pretty sure I lost a ship there, but it must have been in beta1...
 
Does anyone else think that the lack of biscuits in E: D needs to be remedied. Perhaps we can petition FDev to create a new Rare out of Varati: Canonn Hobnobs

You get double the normal bonus if you deliver them to Obsidian Orbital!!!

I guess the other beta releases are only bug fixes with no progress lost, so that would be pretty cool if player wrecks persisted in game. You weren't checking out what looked like a big, deep volcanic looking crater at the time with quite mountainous sides?

The Hobnobs would be in the escape pods, that's standard operating procedure for Canonn members.

That would have been the exact same place :)
 
A few things came up here so I took a break, sorry to the rare gatherers. I still have 16 or so rares in my hold if theres any projects needing them. So many interesting things have happened but I've no idea where to direct some science!
 
Ollowbrains is claiming the canonn is spreading lies about UA
(Click here)
We've finally made it big time, boys!

Would anyone like to be the Canonn ambassador to the UA reddit? That place is falling apart.

And again.

Wasn't Murp in charge of all that? I thought he had things all under control and it was a perfect online community where everything was so much better over there... :p :p

As I started reading this, I thought you were going to suggest doing it on reddit to see if we could anything intelligible out of it.

You just made me spew my coffee. Luckily it was only onto my office PC, not my home rig.

Errrmmmm. That station is only in Beta. You DO understand what happens in Beta stays in Beta ?
If it was live, you get a serious kick in the rear for attempting to infect the 2nd best Science Station in the Galaxy

NOOOO that's 27 hours wasted :(. Do I at least keep my money?
No. Not a thing.
 
Rip my sanity

So sorry. Here, have a nice cup of tea to calm you down. And of course a biscuit.
