The dark wheel at the shinerza dezhra system could be fake, we know from the codex that people get shut down if they use the dark wheels reputation, maybe the missions don’t get handed out because they got shut down?
It would be great if you could find a reference to this different set of TDW missions. Not playing for months, but I spent like a year doing missions for TDW exclusively and never saw any out of common after E/F missions disappeared...I was under the impression they were replaced by a different set of missions offered by the Dark Wheel... the wording was less intriguing but they are unique to the dark wheel. I haven't checked for them recently, but definitely remember them.

I keep tninking that TDW is (was ?) the "some of it a tiny little bit obvious so people know what they are doing" - thing. What else could be ?The dark wheel at the shinerza dezhra system could be fake..
Nup. I believe there's courier, cargo and assassination variants at minimum... but no verbose wording or anything like those older missions.Ok, thx. But do you see anything particular there ? I mean that could be related to the Quest ?
Well people keep thiking that the old missions might have something to do with raxxla but i was speculating that they might not considering they are no longer being handed outOk, thx. But do you see anything particular there ? I mean that could be related to the Quest ?

But anyway.. since MB left (was put aside?) anything can turn out to be... anything.
Consistency left too.
Sure thing, the E/F missions were related to a certain celestial body, you know the one I mean. Place that isn't a place, door that is also the key. The Myth.Well people keep thiking that the old missions might have something to do with raxxla but i was speculating that they might not considering they are no longer being handed out
Or, of course, there could be somebody sat in FD saying "Right! No more mysteries if they cant even solve Raxxla! I mean, come on....Princess Astrophel, spiralling stars, we even gave them the jewl on the brow of the mother of galaxies! What do they want? A system name and coordinates????"I just wanted to say I don't understand all the Elite bashing. Whilst I appreciate the game might not be everybody's cup of tea, for those it does appeal too, I think FD have done/are doing a damb fine job! I personally think Elite is seriously under rated.
Yes, I would love a few more mysteries/stories, but I'm not convinced there are not more of these that we have been to lazy to uncover. Random example, but the Thetis...how many of us read the data at the Thetis, and then plotted a course 15lys back towards Sol, and had a really good search for the planet sending out the kill signal? There are at least dozens of other examples I could cite aa well.
Maybe FD have been focusing on in-game mechanics before storytelling, to make the mysteries more compelling when we play them. I am personally hoping that Gan Romero is the start of this, now we have FSS, etc (which personally I don't mind now I'm used to it). It would make sense for FD to start doing this now, to keep people's interest, whilst many wait for 2020.
With no disrespect to those who dislike the FSS/DSS combo, I suspect the introduction of this mechanism was to enable players to 'find' things - something the ADS was seriously lacking in (unless the player was prepared to spend an indefinite amount of searching time for something that may not even exist... Hmm a bit like Raxxla ), so being 'given' a 'discovery' mechanism to unearth things that had been in the game for years yet unfound seems a reasonable step.
I've been quietly following this thread, and its spin-offs, for a while and enjoying the content. I just wish to point out (which must have been noticed) that the FSS/DSS & Codex were introduced together - is there a link?
@Scytale - shame you are not playing, your input here has been very thought provoking!
@DrewCarnegie - apart from loving the penguin - good input from you too, despite you loathing the new system
Coming with the next update the "Extended FSS" ! Discover any body in the MW without even undocking from Eravate !... but the current implementation of the fss is not yet up to quality; it needs a good engineer to polish/upgrade it!!
They led him to Varati (from the core to the rim), as well as the Canonn PG... Not far from Peregrina, the mysterious plagued "forbidden" system..... they didn’t lead anywhere..
I'll slap your wrists and ankles, little Bene Gesserit Witch...Coming with the next update the "Extended FSS" ! Discover any body in the MW without even undocking from Eravate !
Flying to explore is so boring...
Sorry... I just couldn't refrain...
YES VERY MUCH SO! I just spent 3 days out past rigel, in the Orion nebula and then Barnard's loop area and then 900lyto the left(if facing the Sanguineous Rim border) I noticed it because I thought it was some kind of lag at first.Has anyone noticed that when you fly out near the Horsehead Nebula and/or Col 70, the hyperspace tunnel starts spiraling rapidly around you? Spiraling stars?
