oh dear.. Felicity wants me to shoot Barnacles

It is for you to find. At this moment it seems people actually found new Barnacles, but it is hit by some bug. It will get fixed and it will be fine.
edit: and beta is there to test things, not give you tactical pre-knowledge how system will work in the game.

Re Pecisk, thats a little over the top eh?

Community: Its broke.
Pecsic: Its not.
Community: Its broke.
MB: Its not.
Community: I shoot X, nothing drops.
MB: Might Be empty.
Community: Here is a pic.
MB: Might be broke.

Might the community remind you of the thousands and thousands and thousands of hours when the barnies were "supposed" to be released, but it was ah... what.. underground?

Please Pecsic don't sound so superior. You don't know squat bra.

I am all for giving beta test a break, I was in it. Grind requirements were changed to Fish, so grind requirements were not tested so the game could be released.

It was released too early.

There is a lotta little stuff to fix, so be it, but dude, -1 rep to you, you don't know.

Good luck to all on the roll out.
 
To you the game itself is an obstacle. If the only thing that matters is getting that level 5 upgrade ASAP, everything between you and that is a grind. But it's not a grind, all of those things standing between you and that level 5 upgrade is the game. It's not supposed to be done in a day. This need to rush everything is what ruins the fun for you, just take it as it comes. Do other things, by chance you pick up a material that an engineer needs for an upgrade, that's a good time to get the upgrade.

Are you unable to read? who said i wanted it done in a day.
If i unlock an entry invite to an engineer i dont expect to grind again just for the privilege of talking to her. I'm fully prepared to do the grind to get the materials i need

Maybe you've had too much coffee. ask your barrista to tone it down

For someone ignoring game while wanting "content" anything looks like a grind.

You have no idea mate.

Dont presume to know how i play or what i want. you've demonstrated quite aptly you have no idea what you're talking about

Oh, so you don't mind grinding for upgrades, you just mind having to do something in order to talk to her. uh, ok...?
Judging by the incessant whining in this thread I'd say you're the one that's had too much coffee.

Again, i unlocked the invite.
I'm willing to do something in order to talk to her.

PSA: Bug confirmed...

Ok, sorry for the confusion here.

We were able to reproduce this internally too. It seems there is indeed a bug here, the large flower should be dropping the meta alloy (It seems to be dropping other random metals in this instance) We're investigating this issue further and can hopefully resolve this a.s.a.p!

Thanks for the info CMDRS!

Dude, your exact words... Anyway, not a fruitful discussion and I understand what you mean.

Hopefully the barnacle pods will be fixed soon, gonna try to find some myself when I log on.

My original complaint was about changing the way meta alloys is found without any warning. Then i got sidetracked by the realisation that it's just another grind wall posing as "content"

Anyway good luck, i'm giving up on meta alloys and other rare goods until they fixed the bugs
 
Is that the ONLY one? What kind of planet is it, what soil? What details :) I'm in deep space at the moment headed in

Known barnacle planets from 2.0

Pleiades Sector JC-U B3-2 1
Pleiades Sector JC-U B3-2 2
Pleione 11A
Pleiades Sector IH-V C2-16 C4
Merope 5C

The planets were mainly metal rich from what I remember but surely you can figure that out yourself from the list.
 
Steps for a casual player / non masochist:

1. Download 2.1 update
2. Get in game and fly to an engineer
3. See that it requires something you've never heard of
4. See that there is no description or hint as to where to find it
5. See that it doesn't exist or is always in demand in commodities market
6. Quit the game
7. Play XCOM2 instead

FD, just imagine for a second, a player that has never been to the forum and never intends to. Now design the game based on that.

Sadly this. Missions need to give more of a steer to players. Having to come out the game to find out what I'm supposed to do is a clear indication that the in-game information is inadequate

Well are the barnacles broken or not? Has there been any official statement?
I read that even the ones not depleted are giving out a bunch of stuff but the needed alloys.
 
Sure: in a galaxy of 400 bilions world without no clue (didn't take part to Barnacle's Cg'goal)

Anyway, let's see how they fix them.

In the meanwhile, ESO is a good alternative to Ed: at least, in that game, I always know what to do and where to go...

ED isn't a game on rails and I don't think its that unreasonable not to be instantly gratified. I wouldn't focus solely upon the end goal, enjoy the journey bro ;)

On the topic of barnacles...

What has FD said about this issue?

I just wanted to chime in and say something on behalf of the Xbox community.

When they get Horizons on June 3rd, they seem to be in a predicament at present. Sure, us PC guys had a chance to stockpile meta alloys prior 2.1, but the Xbox guys never had that chance.

How is this fair to them?
