bgs

this is just a suggestion, if / when carriers do appear in game can they influence the BGS in some way. for example, if you carrier appears in a system, can the influence you generate be boosted with an additional + on the missions etc. Idea goes, other factions in the system are worried...

BGS and civil wars. I was away for a bit so I haven't played much with Beyond. I want to support one side of a civil war in a favorite system. I suck at combat, so I have been doing the special civil war missions on the mission board for my side. There's a bunch of black box retrieval,and...

Hello Cmdrs I've been searching and found not much on the sliding scales for economy and security. For example: For the faction 'The Dark Wheel' the Economy marker in on the 'Investment' part of the scale and the security marker is just about on the none part of the scale. However, For the...

This is very simple request, but so important in the current BGS for all of us using journal for third party applications: Please add "battle won" information in player journal.

Hey everybody (and any FD staff checking in), We were chatting in our Discord earlier today, and this resulted in a list of bugs with the current BGS as far as we know. This seemed wise to share with all of the BGS community, and may be an easy list for FD to work from, should they come across...

The update this morning as well as server side updates over last week apparently fixed a lot of the BGS problems. But as the title says observed after the tick this afternoon influence remained locked for my PMF, despite having run +30 worth of influence points from missions (in a low...

Can someone point me in the right direction as to how we as players can flip a system from say tourist to high tech? Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

It seems Outfitting is just RNG. My Home Station Outfitting Store sucks (no I'm not moving). FD should add Outfitting to the BGS or some way to get more hardware in stores. Unless I'm missing something you can't improve your stores no matter what you do. Say increasing the Station Income, or...

How do you make a station sell a wider variety of stuff? We're located way out on the fringes of the bubble (outside of power play region) and the systems here have terrible stock on modules. How can we use the background simulator to help a station sell more stuff?

Greetings commanders, this is a suggestion for not quite overhauling, but tweaking the BGS and minor factions function, but let me preface with a simple statement: As we all know, Squadrons can pledge allegiance to a minor faction. And this, fellow commanders is what i propose to be the...

Just a quick question to spark discussion: do you guys think there will be any type of BGS roll back in light of the recent BGS bug? Having all mission rewards go to system owners seems hardly like a fair thing to leave in the game to me, and at risk of sounding entitles I don't want my group's...

I like how the new war system and general BGS is set up now. But as it stands everybody is in conflict with everyone all the time. That just doesn't make much sense. To fix that I would suggest to get rid of conflicts without assets. That way we would probably cut down on conflicts by at least...

FDEV appear to have implemented a mechanism where CMDRs can hand in bounties at any station - i say appear as i do not know if this is a bug or a design 'feature' that they didnt tell us about. And since FDEV continues to refuse to publish the rules/design that govern BGS it will remain...

I've noticed an odd behavior in the bgs that I want to see if anyone else has run into. A buddy and I have been concertedly supporting an anarchy faction, and have, in the days since the reset, watched the faction's support swing wildly, and very unpredictably. In short, we have been running a...

Regarding the Fuel Rats home system struggle: I fully understand that FDev have shot down the idea of only having BGS effects earned in 'Open' count, but what if the community took up the torch? What if we spread the idea that working the BGS in Solo/Private Group was 'cowardly' or sleazy, or at...

Ahoy there, i think a lot of the trouble with how the game is presented is homebrewed. The devs have all necessary tools at hand, to correct the most obvious flaws. They have USSes and wing beacons, the ability to spawn NPCs tied to the BGS states and can change the cargo lists of NPCs, while...

With the revealed BGS changes for Beyond 3.3, while they propagate to the journal? If so, I hope FDEV will release the new Journal Manual at the start of the beta so that changes can be made for the parsers everyone is using (and bugs found quickly).

While the new ability for a faction to be affected by multiple states sounds great. It still seems off. Wouldn't it make more sense for a "famine" or "outbreak" state to affect a whole planet, or station, rather than just a faction? It's like if a new flu epidemic broke out but only labour...

Sounds pretty cool... https://www.pcgamesn.com/elite-dangerous/elite-dangerous-scenario-missions

The idea is: what happens in a mode stays in a mode. Wanna play single player fine. Wanna play open fine. Wanna play both , fine. But your stuff in one does not exist in the other. This means pvpers can't hide in solo when in their taxi ship to CG, and then switch to open when they feel safe in...

the idea here [ https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteAntal/comments/980krv/guardians_of_harmony/e5d5avj/?context=8&depth=9 ] . is one i've had before, and does seem SUITED, to different locations, where something just doesn't MAKE SENSE, when you look at it, especially when you're a new player, and...
