Looking at the ship's right panel to look at all the bucket you can fill up doing braindead gameplay loops that a simple AHK script can do is pretty damn real though.

How about this - why don't they just remove all the grind? - You just pick your ship from a chart, equip it as you see fit and it's all FREE!
Problem is. Everyone would be flying a-rated anacondas. So that would be very boring. And there would be no challenge.
Hey. If you dislike working for things that much, why not just watch a youtube video of someone flying a Anaconda? - no effort at all required there.

Welcome to my Squadron
I know what game I'm playing. I'm not the one complaining it's not a different kind of game.Dude. You obviously know nothing about PvP (FYI, CQC is a completely different game).
Maybe this game is not for you.

NMS is nothing like Elite its a cartoony space game not a simulator. They both have their own strengths but are totally different and both have a different place in the game genre. NMS is minecraft in space which isnt a bad thing if you like that kind of game. I prefer Elite personally. Im in my 40s which might have something to do with it
Elite isn't a simulator. You fly around space in the 34th century shooting lazers at aliens. It's kind of embarrassing to excuse the boredom element of ED with that argument when it quite clearly doesn't simulate anything.
And NMS is quite a lot like ED. That's another daft argument. Hence why they are continually discussed as substitutes.
NMS is not like Elite in any way.
Elite is a simulation for you playing the space ship commander. You actually have to fly the ship, not press L. So it is a simulator, for a far future space ship. Your actually flying the thing.
Which is exactly what I like, along with many others. Otherwise I would be playing something else.

Yeah farming Dav's hope/HGE is such a deep and meaningful gameplay and relogging such a challenge...
I find fuel scooping to be intrinsically rewarding. Maybe Elite isn't the game for you.
I think you're confusing engaging gameplay with grind.
If that's the case it means that in ED there's no gameplay at all.
Because I attack weak points to make them stronger.
Shooting? Don't you know you can punch them too? And in VR is a lot of fun too!

Okay so you have to G5 everything on your ship. Yep that will be a grind if u want to do it fast. Sorta like trying to bash the square peg into the round hole. I've been playing ED for a few months now, taking a very relaxed approach to engineering. Almost 100% G5 in some of my ships, but because I'm taking my time and just enjoying all of the aspects of ED, it will take a while before I'm ready for PvP. Which suits me fine, I like exploring, running missions, mining, bounty hunting etc. I don't want to shoot other players. Yet. But I guess when I have played for a while longer, I will have some G5 God ships and I will need to challenge myself by taking on someone else's G5 God ship. I think that is just the path that will naturally develop for me.
Looking @ the comments in this thread, and previous similar threads it becomes obvious that Frontier introduced engineers to encourage players to do a wide range of activities in the game: exploring, trading, bounty hunting, checking out USS's etc. Whether they realised that PvP players were not interested in anything other than PvP and would then struggle with engineering is a good question. But that is the way it has turned out. If PvP is all you like to do, are there not other games that are more PvP orientated?
Hey Frontier, NMS added new grind by disabling all the power in my base requiring me to grind in a new way to get back to being able to play the game. Please DON'T Take note.
Yup, SubLogic Flight Simulator on the Apple IIe. Never could land in that one, even though I had no problems landing my sailplane. Wasn't until Flight Simulator 98 that the graphics were finally giving me the proper visual clues.
Not locked out of gameplay at all. That's stuff I'm not interested in doing. I see it as gameplay that's not being forced on me. Big sandbox and all that.
As to PvP, like I said, I fly in solo. Not an issue.
I'll not argue as you have determined it's necessary for your style of play.
Agree with the flying to Beagle Point. As to Thargoids and PvP, not something I do. Like I said above, our play styles differ so you and I play in different parts of the sandbox.
I have unlocked Farseer to level 5. Had to take a road trip to buy her meta alloy tribute, but that paid for itself with the exploration data. The long range frame shift is very useful, but not mandatory.
No need to grind for engineering materials either, I pick them up as I play the game. Scanning wakes in a souped up iEagle is a hoot. I'll drop in on USS threat 0 when I only have an hour or so for gaming and want a little diversion. I get a lot of stuff just mining.

What reward? Credits? Materials? Ranks?
All of these are incredibly easy to come by, unless you're a lazy 47 relogging at Dav's thinking this is how you get materials, in which case, you've inflicted this on yourself, enjoy it.
Yep, a hangar would be nice.
There are 9 ships in game atm. You need to buy and build your own base to unlock the other 4 ships.
One ship is actually called the Beluga.
