I'm not sure if this has been brought up but ... if the Aliens are here NOW in version 2.2 then what does the "?" in version 2.4 refer to?

Got interdicted again in the Pleiades; Was going to Asterope to Maia (no UA this time). I seriously think you may be able to catch it if you're quick enough. I was SO close to going through that wormhole with it in my Cobra, and I haven't even modified the drives. If the wormhole had stayed open even one more second, I would have went through it.

So question... what happens when you get "hyperdicted"? Do you get stranded between star systems? has anyone taken a picture of the galactic map after the encounter and found their location between systems? Going outside the story element, this may have greater gameplay implications....

Sometimes it drops people between their target location and previous jump point. I was going to Asterope when both of the encounters occurred, and the first time it dropped me out at Sterope II. Second time it just dropped me out in the black of Asterope.

Final FULL update as I head off to bed - wall of text but this is as it happened:

Story so far at 1:21am on 6/1/17:

No confirmed encounters without a UA onboard yet. Some unconfirmed reports of encoutners with MA onboard.

Corvette in first encounter jumped to Aries Dark Region XU-O B6-3 in first video and from Pleiades Sector DR-M B7-2 to Pleiades Sector OI-T C3-8 while being interdicted during a jump on the way to Maia in the later video. Second in Hyades Sector WJ-Z b3 and Third in Pleiades Ector BR-M B7-

Corvette reportedly had no UAs onboard according to wing pilot (conflicting reports on this) but the second video shows the ship with 6AUs

2nd encounter scanned unknown ship and saw the sub systems http://i.imgur.com/V9rwfrd.png

Ship encoutnering the unknown ship in the second encounter has 6 UAs http://i.imgur.com/V9rwfrd.png

Videos of both encounters:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=slbWLXIpCv8 - compilation of first three videos - XBOX

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzEt...ature=youtu.be - 2nd encounter - PC

Third encoutner in an Anaconda - Pleiades Ector BR-M B7-O -- https://youtu.be/6voBFnYkmsM

Another player (Julian Frenjo McCoy) while talking on DJTruthsayer's stream) was also interdicted by an unknown ship and shot at it! It ignored him and continued to jump away. He took screenshots and wasn't recording. http://steamcommunity.com/id/Frenjo/.../?appid=359320

Asp encouters one at Hyades Sector WJ-Z b3 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DzEt...ature=youtu.be

People now reporting getting pulled out in a different system to the one they were travelling to

PAtau82 encoutnered on in Pleiades Sector TP-N b7-0 while travelling from Pleiades Sector TP-N b7-2

Mhyre got a scan of the wake from his encounter: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...80/unknown.png
No destination shown and hyperdrive malfunctions when trying to target the wake and jumping

CMDR Mhyre's report:

First encounter: From: PLEIADES SECTOR TO-R C4-2
To: HIP 16374

Second encounter: From: ARIES DARK REGION GW-W D1-52
To: ARIES DARK REGION MS-T C3-9

UA in hold on both occasions.

"From my video, I am pretty sure my ADS honked just before it jumped. Couldn't scan the cargo in time, but the ECM didn't do anything. I was close enough." - CMDR Mhyre

video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwBL...ature=youtu.be

CMDR Redden Alt Mer encountered one travelling from Pleiades Sector OD-S b4-2 to Pleiades Sector RY-R b4-1

CMDR Melsom's encounter https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NKq_...utu.be&t=7m11s

DJ Truthsayer encountered one while streaming and shot at it. It took no damage and jumped away. He sacnned the wake and got the same unknown wake scan. He tried jujmping while targetting the wake and received a message that the drive was malfunctioning.

Report from CMDR Revelo

1) Jump From: Maia
2) Jump to: PLEIADES SECTOR IH-V C2-12
3) End Point: PEGASI SECTOR CV-Y C22
4) Encounter: One Thargoid ship, had 1 UA in hold and 2 MA's. Scanned me and sped off, scanned ship and Unknown wake, didn't honk discovery scanner or fire at ship, weapons power was drained
EDIT: jump destination was supposed to be PLEIADES SECTOR HR-W D1-S7 (or D1-57, unsure) and he got thrown out of hyperspace at PLEIADES SECTOR IH-V C2-12 instead

Encounter by CMDR Zenith https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D229l57JtyA

Excellent shot of it jumping in this vide by CMDR Zenith. It spins as it seems to open some sort of portal to jump. https://youtu.be/D229l57JtyA?t=127

Please add your encoutners in the form done by CMDR waterlubber - https://goo.gl/forms/eqKdf41AWQWjmXUC3

check your EDicovery Logs (if you're into that) "EDDiscovery log lists the encounter as "Encoded, unknownshipsignature, Discovery Number 25" - from the forums - being counted

Someone needs to shoot it with mining lasers. Maybe that is what it is looking for.

Er...I think we have a disconnect here. Let's review the facts so far:

Unknown Alien Race that can pull ships from Hyperspace
Further has the ability to COMPLETELY DISABLE our ships at will
Scans/Inspects our ship WITHOUT inflicting damage
Allows our scan of their ship
Weapons fire has NO effect
Leaves the area peacefully through use of technology/methods dissimilar from our own.
Scanning of exit wake proves mostly fruitless at this time

Your response: Let's Shoot It!

Ladies and Gentlemen, I submit to you that we are Way out of our league here. Perhaps it would be really prudent to try and find a way to open a dialogue INSTEAD of a vein here.

I mean, do as you will, but as for me I will be sitting back here minding my own business. Maybe there will be a new set of advances in defense technology before Humanity becomes a footnote in the evolution of the Galaxy.

Once again, the L.A.P.D. is asking Los Angelenos not to fire their guns at the visitor spacecraft. You may inadvertently trigger an interstellar war.

Honestly from the quick scan and jump, it looks like they're looking for something. Has anyone encountered one with any of the artifacts from the alien ruins?

Has anyone checked Polaris or any random permit locked systems after the encounter? Just a thought.
