missions

Unable to retrieve a complete list from the server. A partial list of available missions is displayed. This has been happen EVERY SINGLE TIME I enter missions for two days straight. I have to wait for the communication to time out and it is terribly annoying! It makes me not want to play...

Elite 3.x Beyond suggestions These are some of my thoughts regarding the state of Beyond and some simple improvements to make it flow better and deepen the immersion. I’ve been playing for a number of years now and I’m sure with the combined community suggestions we can achieve a truly great...

Unless I'm missing something, very possible, you now have to use the FSS to locate the bodies for land based missions? I like this idea, but it is a bit of a ball ache. Are there any tips for finding the mission locations faster? I'm not used to the scanner yet and I'm sure I'll get quicker...

Now, is it just me (because it certainly could be), or have things changed in the game? Coming back to EDH after a little time away, I slapped my Corvette into port, next to my Cutter & Anaconda and boarded my favourite ship; my Diamondback Explorer. Don't ask why, I just like it. Anyhow, I use...

I may have missed something, but before Beyond, finding a POI during a planetary scan mission, a scan with the discovery scanner caused the planet in question to be marked in the location table. But now, such mark doesn't show up any longer, neither when scanning the nav beacon. How are we...

So many explorers play in private or solo mode for fear of losing many days worth of game play in one accident, or being destroyed by another ship. As more of an intensive for explorers to play in Open I propose the following. I suggest adding a Black Box that CMDR's can interact with. A...

Now, before you scream at me, the title is a rhetorical question, but i want to start a discussion, a pretty important one i think. So let's be real... for one of the most dangerous activities in the game other than PVP, we're really not being rewarded anything for resisting the Thargoids. I...

Just noticed the usual 30+mill/40-50 targets, got adjusted to 25-30mill/90 targets [woah] Anyone else seeing this? Seems like wing and non-wing targets/reward got shifted around...

"The Shunned" is a non-player faction located in the asteroid base "New Growth" in the pencil nebula. This minor faction controls no stations, has no normal missions available , but strangely has passenger missions. However these missions are reputation locked, and therefore are not available...

I think it would be a good idea to have the Missions subdivided into categories. So, say you wanted DELIVERY missions you'd go to the Mission Menu and a submenu would be DELIVERIES, choosing that would then list just delivery missions to choose from, and so on with Massacre Missions, Sourcing...

It would be great if the station and system names were listed on mission summaries in the Transactions tab. When scouring the mission boards for missions where I'm already going to, it can be hard to remember where all my current missions are for. You have to go into each mission on the...

I think a great way to expand upon CQC and the idea of 'telepresence' is the ability to join a scenario/war/skirmish/combat zone as a sort of 'hired' pilot for one of the factions. From the mission board of a station in war or neighbouring system there could be a call to pilots to takeover...

I've come up with some ideas for missions which would allow the less combative commanders to contribute to kicking the Thargoids out of a system suffering from incursion. I originally posted a version of this in the Thargoid incursion zone announcement thread, but decided since these were...

With the new cargo Depot mechanics of the delivery missions it's easier than ever to forget to load up the cargo you committed to deliver and head out of the system, get interdicted, high wake, etc. My question is: how can I find out where do I have to get the cargo from once I left the mission...

I am hoping this quality of life improvement can be added,. I basically would like a way of seeing what totals of missions items are required when purchasing commodities. When you have 6 or 7 missions all needing stuff, the missions may mean you need 3 different commodities made up of...

I'm sure by now everyone has seen or heard the 2.8% figure on board flipping. As The Yamiks said in his video and in streams we kinda have to take FDEV's word for it because we don't have access to the data. To good naturedly have a lil fun I thought it would be fun to give them a little ribbing...

PSA: Current C&P does not discourage PVP; It only prevents strike missions on controlling factions. Current C&P mechanics cause any strike missions with Authority vessels nearby to be treated as equal to or greater than player ships. Killing authority ships results in an increase of notoriety...

The addition of raw engineering materials to mission rewards would help cut out a lot of the griping over grinding in the game. Material grade offered could be linked to mission ranking, and with the traders even getting lower grades of materials that can be traded up could make for a happier...

A big complaint with the narrative of Elite is that it feels a little too detached for most players. Unless you're there and actively participating, it may as well not be happening at all. A prime example of this is the Thargiod invasion. What's supposed to be a massive and important event has...

Hello Frontier Development could you do us a solid and remove the "target will be available from [x time- y time]" please this is really unnecessary, i rather making the target difficult to kill than be wasting time; specially for players that don't have 5 hours to play everyday most of us play...

I've been on a long break from this game and redownloaded it earlier. My problems mainly lied with the fact that Grinding engineers gave an unfair advantage in PVP, lack of innovation when it came to missions, lack of meaningful PVP within Powerplay, but mainly the lack of depth and profit with...

Played this wonderful game for quite a while, 3 billion assets, all the ships, all the engineers, done the grind. Only needed Elite in exploration so I get my Connie and set off with 5 passengers to do my first long range mission. Previously couldn't face 250 jumps to get out here but I was...

- Passenger mission to retrieve escape pod or personal belongings. - Passenger mission that requires use of a Passenger enabled SRV, using muliple scannable check point system. - Missions going to Thargoid sites (via srv). - Missions going to abandoned mining sites (via srv). -...

Couple new utility mount ideas: 1) Data Dish/Receiver - Something you could put on your ship to interact with a starport without having to dock with it. Once you get within range (ie maybe 7,500m) this would allow you to complete any task where there isn't something physically being exchanged...

As you have probably all experienced; occasionally missions with a chain symbol next to them get offered to you by groups you've worked for before. What is the value in taking these missions on instead of doing one of the, often, much higher paid missions being offered by other groups (or even...

Every other illegal mission type lists out clearly that it would require you to do illegal actions. However, planetary missions do not have any such indication, even though they require illegal actions to be taken and the incurring of a bounty. What's the appropriate place to report this bug...

I've just noticed that the passenger missions being offered at Jameson Memorial are bugged in my opinion. The ones of interest are transporting first class passengers. Missions are asking for 54 First class seats - a task that's near impossible. Taking the best passenger liner out there - the...

I've finally spent some time running VIP missions and I have to say the presentation on information needs some work. Time left is not shown for VIP missions in the main transactions view; is this a bug? When we click through to the mission details, we have information in the wrong order...

ok, regards ... I want to complain about the problems I see in making misons and in the beluga ship, first, the missions of recovery of black boxes etc, when you come a squadron of 5 ships for you do not let you finish the mion because or you break or you have to go out and find the signal of...

I've been playing on-and-off since launch but I haven't progressed super far. However, I'm sure it's not just me that feels like combat payouts are abysmal right now. Combat zone payouts are tiny, mission target counts are unrealistically enormous, and half the time your kills don't count...

The fact is, FDev has a history of failing to properly balance and incentivize both solo and especially multiplayer activities, and we have all seen this happen time and time again. Something pays too high to the wrong rank of player, and instead of redesign the mechanics of credit payouts to...

could new missions be introduced for each of the imperial and federal ranks, as the rank increases, you would gain access to the missions, the value and the difficulty of the mission increases also in-line with the rank. at the top end, the mission should encounter high combat ranking NPCs...

So a bit of the surrounding narrative: I worked for countless hours delivering cargo to make the credits to pay for the almighty Beluga Liner, which with a few tweaks i managed to get 45 ly range, fully loaded with type A modules. It only cost 240 mil. I then began my journey into the black...

Can't see the point of it to be honest. You can sell them for maybe a bit more than if you take the cash alone, and that's after finding a suitable market. Doesn't seem worth the effort. Maybe I'm missing something?

Now that we have chapter 1 and 2 complete, and 4 is under discussion....the timing is right to address the biggest ED issue right now - missions. If they address these issues in chapter 3, then by the time 4 ships they will have had time to properly fix all the bugs and iron out the things they...

First of all, hats off to the designers of the Krait. It's like you took all of my favourite elements of design and functionality from my most-used ships and put it all into one. It's perfect! However, we now have a ship great for smuggling, but there's (literally) zero good smuggling...
