UAs, Barnacles and other mysteries Thread 8 - The Canonn

[Guard_Gnome]

Lets sum it up:

FD had not much for gamescom (no News about 2.3, 2.4, Season 3, not even a schedule), so they announced a "mega-event" for today. They didn´t even code a single line for this "event" but forcing their interns to fly ingame to keep us "entertained". That forces us into open, which is NOT my preferred playing style due to those pewpewkids having fun blewing us out of the sky just for teh lulz.

Worst ingame experience in 2 years of playing. Really.

Yup. Pretty sad really. So much wasted potential.

I've changed it, after the new discoveries:

Kohl, a Trader, will be arriving at Cail at 10.00 in a Red T9;
Dillon hangs around Apademak in a Yellow Asp (perhaps every day at 15:00?);
Granger will be arriving at Apademak (or Pic Tok?) at 21.00 in a Cobra;

Bbviously someone is lying...

Kohl was in Cail, but was KOS

Your missing the last line.

 

[bitstorm]

I don't know - I'm quite engrossed right now.

It was MadDogMurdock's duck picture?

No it's opening up a bit, if the Dillon lead is legit.

 

[CMDR Ofan]

found an article of a intresting double pulsar here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_J0737-3039
and that system exists in elite, maby something worth cheking into

I'm heading out there as we speak

Any of you ever played that game called clue or cluedo in europe? i think this maybe similar .. the clues look kinda like that.

 

[Ecthelion]

Yeah, this was not good at all after the momentum the UP sonogram and beam transmissions gathered.

 

[Peter Stark]

Lost interest. Spent 3.5 hrs ingame today. Goner.
Waste.

I like ED for what I want it to be.
I am falling asleep everytime I play it.

Though, this forum. This is pretty nice text game.

Reading the forums is nice, but running around is not with half clues is not.

 

[Nightstrider]

We are already there. Nothing so far

 

[LordZoltan]

Ah I always get confused by that! Target panel is the bigger one on top.

Well, it's easy enough to test what was said - try delivering baccy to where they told us to. The double pulsar thing is a bit silly though: they don't exist in ED - no way of telling if the system you're in actually has a pulsar.

Unless someone knows of a system with two neutron stars in, then seems to me it's either a clue for the future or it's pony (that means rubbish, or cr@p for those who don't know their rhyming slang).

I'm well aware of this double pulsar system that a few people have mentioned, too - but it seems a bit of a reach, and doesn't match up with the single class M clue from before either.

It's all a bit fishy...

I agree im having much more fun here reading this thread that i turned off the game and got my popcorn. As always bang up job FD

Fdev on this hunt = unable to organise a sock drawer (omgerd mod grow up, that term is acceptable in the english language and isnt a cuss word)

Maybe Kohl is the liar, not his friends.

Fdev on this hunt = unable to organise a up in a brewery

Ah, would that be a McMullen Brewery perchance?

[TargetLost]

The ones I still have open were taken in Apademak...

What ship was Dillon flying, for those who were there?

you guys have Patient.

"do something for me.." at that Point I had shot him!!!

Assuming the CG message was supposed to be a second clue from Kohl, it would make him the liar, meaning that he could also be lying about his friend lying.

That forces us into open, which is NOT my preferred playing style due to those pewpewkids having fun blewing us out of the sky just for teh lulz. Not mentioning instancing problems, server disconnects.

Worst ingame experience in 2 years of playing. Really.

If it weren't for the fun I had flying my ship around with friends on planets while we killed time during this hyped up event I would uninstall the game right now. I love ED but I am just so let down by FD now, after a number of completely unacceptable updates they throw this cold dish at us. And this is meant to get us hyped for 2.2. At least it's probably representative of the quality we can expect in future.

We in Australia stayed up till nearly 3 in the morning on a work night for this, and NOTHING. We got even more shafted than the players in the UK or USA, because thanks to FD never bothering to make functional their instancing system, we could not have possibly even taken part! What an absolutely shady, nasty way to treat an entire nation in the culmination of a year long story full of frustration and painstaking slow progress!

I can't put in to words how disappointed and ripped off I feel. This game always has issues, and we make excuses because we want this aspect of the game - but FD can't even deliver on that! Sick of the excuses! I'm done till there's a formal apology for the issues and a guarantee that they're resolved.

 

[Pete Clements]

Glad I stayed at Jacques for the exploration cg now...

 

[gnomechild]

Maybe Kohl is the liar, not his friends.

That would seem to be the case considering that Dillon was not found in the system he said he'd be found in. Well, that the CG said he'd be found in anyway
