I already encountered strange new alien life forms and decided to see what would happen if I fired multicannons at them
I'm okay with it as long as it is for science.
I also tried dumbfires but they were too small to hit
Put the kettle on, guys.
OH GODS, WE HAVEN'T TIDIED UP IN AGES.
Clean lair is a sign of a sick mind.
@Phisto Sobanii better clear those wreckages from the station entrance
Hagz... I've told you before and I'll tell you again. I'm not a janitor!
But, you have to take out the baddies! Clearly, that's a janitor...of sorts.
PVP is custodial work. Change my mind!
jk I jest.
How do you get a 222ly jump? lol. My DBX will get 130ish with lvl 3 injections!
Neutron star jet cone boost. It gives you 4x boost.
Yep, I got the count down to around 180 jumps on the normal plotter before I got tired of it and fired up spansh - 47 neutrons in a row later I was in carcosa.
My word, that's fast.
Well, I was around halfway there at that point, just short of 11kly.
edit: apparently sol to carcosa in a 67ly ship is 106 jumps, and 11 of those are getting into the neutron layer to begin with.
1. BGS players get to play the BGS without having to worry about some powerplay group swooping in like "UH SO WE GET AN EXTRA 0.5CC FOR THIS SYSTEM IF WE FLIP IT TO A DIFFERENT GOVERNMENT TYPE SO YOU'RE NOT ALLOWED TO BE HERE"
2. The colonia bubble is somewhat more compact, so the people that play there are generally more likely to run into each other rather than being lost in the giant ocean of bubble systems.
3. Some of the engineer blueprints can only be obtained in Colonia.
4. No ezmode outfitting, you actually have to shop around to get your ships fitted. You know, like when you were first starting and didn't have Jameson's one-stop-shop. But the lack of that single "everyone come here" system to get people to meet each other isn't a problem because (2).
5. Despite being more likely to run into players in any given system, colonia isn't exactly low-hanging-fruit for the low-skill gankers and wordless wonders to reach, so even if someone you meet is hostile, they're less likely to be your typical 12 year old.
