Fleet Carrier stranded up at Rockham's Peak after "incident" with security forces. Looking for Help.
- Thread starter THUD PiG
- Start date
It was well flagged up during testing that this was a poor game mechanic.
Truth be told they had already signed of on it and they only thing they adjusted was on the credits side.
When these devs hit beta they don't change and it's been like this for many years.
Having a stranding your carrier mechanic built into the game is totally incompetent and not emerging gameplay.
Half baked nonsense and delivered unbelievably delayed and still an Achilles heel as stupid as this one.

That system doesn't seem to exist, I will fly up to your FC and drop you 1,000 tons of Tritium, all I can spare at the moment, but I can't meet you because that system seems to be non-existant.
I think it was a deliberate design decision to a) prevent FC's becoming to powerful and b) to drive situations like this.
Ok you have added an extra N into your system name somehow, I know where you are.
I will park there overnight and open my carrier for access, just post here when you are on board.

Man you're unlucky!!
I was only up there last week. I got there & back following the route that Varonica has posted.
Sadly, for what was up there, I won't be returning in a while
If there is some cmdr's Carrier still there up there & there were I few when I was there, then they could possibly fill your Carrier to 100%, allowing you to make most, if not all the route back to a higher density of Stars.
BTW: keep us updated, though I'm out in the black but returning to the bubble via Exploring, if you haven't sorted yourself out, I'll gladly pick you up & take you part way, if you remote jump your Carrier part way back.......it just may be a few days though.
Added: Yeah, if I'd read all the posts before posting mine, I'd have seen varonica was helping you out....nice work cmdr

I do that all the time, jump in quick and then find the problem is over. Anyway I am at station now waiting for the OP to get on board, we will definitely keep everyone posted!
Nice one cmdr +1
How much ya got for help????
Pardon me? Was that a question, if so you will need to explicate it a bit more, I don't understand.
OMG im so sorry. I went to bed. I'm in central U.S. i see you in the system now. this message board updates goofy.
I was asking that CMDR (OP) how much he/she had to pay for help - nothing for free in this galaxy m'lady.
Sorry for your predicament but this is a strong case for "Remote Fueling" on fleet carriers if ever I saw one.
Good luck in getting your FC back, sorry I can't help.
I don't have a FC yet ... maybe I'll try that ... thanks for the tip
a) Fleet carriers to powerful, what does that mean?
b) To enable a mechanic that strands your Carrier, didn't see that in the beta or patch notes.
This would solve one problem but create another. At present, non-Carrier-owners can hitch a ride on a Carrier and know that they won't get stranded up there, because they can commit a crime and get sent back to the Bubble.
