I played my first engineers stuff after the patch. Before patch I didn't want to engage with engineers cause I didn't have time for that. Now I did some missions like before and got commodities that I had never had before patch. That is very welcome change. Seems that getting stuff now just playing is a bit closer to the truth. And it was very nice change when I got to the farseer that recipes were easier for fsd range. This was the best patch for quite some time. Now I can also enjoy engineers stuff.
What is still nice about Elite is that with planning you get nice results. I needed meta alloys for engineer and saw that there was a CG at the same place. Now I got meta alloy, participated CG and got bunch of exploration data

No, it was not for me. Too much of grind and random, frustrating rolls.
Players was pushed to the casino without money. Now at least they have money to play.
I played few hours/day and got stuff in two months. Not mastered stuff, but average at least. A folks who have a bit less of time have any not chances to get something.
Now this is better balanced. Still time is needed, but when you entering to the casino then you have few attemps, not one. Games now is more pleasure than second work.

Multiple occurences... it just doesn't work.... just evaded an interdiction on zero throttle... speed was low as i had only just entered the system... so yes this means that instant interdictions are still occuring as well!!!!
Getting interdicted by particularly strong NPCs while carrying mission commodity rewards is not something introduced in .05. It was happening before too. While all the NPCs interdicting me are quite playable after the .04 patch, if I carry these commodities I usually cannot win the fight. The ships I'm up against are very agile with very strong weapons and deadly accuracy. Furthermore they tend to break my thrusters quite easily making even my escape quite difficult.
I have a simple bypass of this problem: I get rid of these commodities as soon as possible. I have read that these are used by engineers. If that's true, I have no use for them anyway. I don't have the Engineers expansion.
Hmmm... I'd probably poll it in a separate thread to seee how many other players have the same experience, and then bugrep it with FDev if it's a common occurrence (i.e. several other players have the same issue and it's happening multiple times to them as well). Got to give the devs plenty of evidence to work from... Would be REALLY useful if you could fraps it or similar as well (then bung it on Youtube and link it
) For yself, it was a rare(ish) occurence and like I said, was happening pre-patch to me (and I think I was just falling foul of the timing/speed barrier) so I can't be much more help there I'm afraid.
Thanks, unfortunately a lot of more files seem to be broken. I deleted the entire directory, but to no avail.
I will try to install elite again on a different usr account on my computer and try to copy the entire directories, if that works.
Logged on last night after taking a break.... installed the patch and took the cutter out (trading run), 5 jumps 4 interdiction's this part of the game is no longer fun, it's just annoying game play!
Decided to wing up with a friend, took over 4 re-logs to get in to the same instance, then every other jump one of us would get the "failed to connect to the matchmaker server!"
gave up on the wing....
Tried to do a few mission, 2-3 mins for the board to load, or time outs to the transaction server trying to complete a mission. (plus 1-2 interdiction's per mission)
Elite is becoming one of the most irritating games i have ever played!

Nope no mission stacking, one mission to deliver 90T of silver to an planetary base (43 LY away) 1 interdiction, Second mission from the planetary base boom data delivery 28 LY interdicted 2 times
On the mission briefing, were you warned (in red text) that "enemy ships may be sent against you" or something similar?This is a guarantee you'll be interdicted from my experience. As opposed to random trading (no mission cargo) where I rarely get bothered.

are you by any chance carrying ANY Mission reward cargo? Even 1 unit of this Mission reward Cargo will attract Pirates like bees round a honey pot (You are the Honey Pot, the Pirates are the Bees
)![[VR] DDM_Reaper20](https://forums-cdn.zaonce.net/data/avatars/m/44/44021.jpg?1588332101){kind=avatar}
Same here, no issues. Easier than falling off a log. I've been interdicted dozens of times, the only times I died were those when I foolishly decided to fight when running would have been in order, and I have to blame myself for that.
No. only cargo was that for the mission,are you by any chance carrying ANY Mission reward cargo? Even 1 unit of this Mission reward Cargo will attract Pirates like bees round a honey pot (You are the Honey Pot, the Pirates are the Bees
I do not have a problem with the interdiction's in general as it adds to the game, but the problem I do have is the continental senseless interdiction's. I can kill the attackers with little to know problem, but it's just very irritating.!
Was interdicted again today in the Cutter with 512T of gold, by and Elite Eagle demanding I drop it all.... this is just stupid!
BTW I am Elite Combat and Trade.
