This really bugs me. I of course want the comfort of all the dinosaurs to be 100% but for this type of mission which comes fairly often I have to force them to be unhappy?!
I of course like to see my dinosaurs fight, but I thought that this will occur every now and then. For example with my 2...
How is it my Anaconda's integrity can going from 100% to 0% in just two or three trips to Vela dock in MedB from Parutis? I'm not involved in any combat or collisions. Is it the long 1.6 million LS flight in super-cruise that does it? If so, WHY and HOW does that effect the integrity of a ship...
I personally feel when it comes to missions, you should get some sort of bonus money based on how valuable your ship is, like first, the initial price of the mission, Plus an extra 50% Rebuy cost money added.
The more expensive your ship is the more money you will make through doing missions...
So, it seems the general consensus is that mission objectives take way too long to spawn. After my experience today, I'm adding my two cents to the pile. I've bounced my head off the desk in boredom many times before, but I've been waiting an hour now (as of starting to write this post) for a...
So tourism, right now they are more or less glorified transport missions. Sure there can be random demands and every passanger got a general attitude towrds certain things(read secretive and whatnot), but all in all tourism is just glorified transport. So why not add some depth to the whole...
I've done a few tests with random players and found that right now, as of 3.0, Wing missions already almost work with Multicrew. Namely:
Player can take & share wing mission while in crew
Crewmembers can accept the wing mission
Crewmembers see the mission in transaction tab
Crewmembers get...
So after 5 Months in ED, countless hours of doing salvaging missions for the Nobles of Mbukuravi, after selecting them as my go-to faction on a whim and a lot of Sothis Mining/Ceos runs, here are a few thoughts about the Mission System.
Merge normal missions with wing version
So Wing Missions...
Like many players, I wish to have more dynamic and exciting missions. While normal cargo hauling can be relaxing and used to be a fine money maker, I'd hope that there could be a more challenging version that has better pay to match.
Blockade running! You have to haul cargo to a destination...
Star systems and stations that have been attacked have lots of nice decoration and atmosphere.
In addition, they offer missions that are directly attached to this that are both cool and profitable, awarding credits, materials, reputation and data.
However, systems that are about to be attacked...
Hear me out:
With the larger push for wing missions(and nothing but wing missions, according to the mission boards), I think it's time for a Wing-Finder feature/service/deal/thing.
Here's the setup: I click a button to offer a job up to nearby CMDR's and type up a brief description of what...
Back in TIE Fighter and other space-y games, I always enjoyed the reconnaissance missions where you gotta sneak somewhere, scan something, and then get out.
In systems experiencing war or even just rival factions trying to size up their competition, I think it'd be fun to have a mission where...
Please can we get rid of co-ordinate hunting, you should be able to put the numbers in the nav comp and just go there, i dont even accept missions with co-ordinates as its a pain, i know lots of you will show off saying its easy etc but i cant be he only one who thinks the ships should find...
Hey commanders!
I wanted to toss an idea I had (and I'm sure others have it too). Wing missions are a nice add and a great way to get new players involved too. It adds to the sense of community, and is a good tutorial into the various aspects of the game.
However, I've noticed that wing...
I was revisiting my Python and all those outposts where the bigger ships can't get to and it made me think about the kinds of missions being offered at these locations - for example this outpost was offering a permit acquisition mission. I had no idea this system had such a thing.
I was...
Hey cmdrs,
I was wondering if anyone has seen any more data delivery missions to colonia anymore? I know there were a bunch when 2.4 hit but I haven’t seen any since then. I wanted to pick up a few on my way out into the black since I plan on being out there a while and don’t want to take...
Another suggestion for a new mission type: Dust Off. The term "Dust Off" is normally used to refer to helicopter landings where the craft lands without shutting off it's engine so they can quickly pickup/drop off personnel and cargo. In this case the term refers to missions involving emergency...
| FDev this would bring so much more to the game with little to no resources |
FDev,
Id really like to see some more meaningful mission types.
My thought is that it would be like an attack run on a ground settlement, Outpost or megaship.
You'd pick up a mission to "Help reduce defenses on...
Whilst I concur that more diverse missions and joined up missions are good - more content is more - it all seems to me to continue the [Fly to location, perform preprogrammed action, get new location] format, relieved only by possible combat. The combat itself is also quite samey; you fight and...
Dear FDEV. Honest experience with your piece of "economy" balance. From a relatively fresh player.
TLDR: Relatively new player who avoided exploits as much as I could. Unhappy with the fact that risky missions pay less than safe ones, which makes grind boring and exploits attractive. ZERO F's...
Greetings
I have suggestion if Fdev could add wing mission rewards with high influence +++++ as reward. Why i am pointing on that, because some of us have pmf in high traffic zone and that would be one way to work together in wing missions for boosting our factions to the point we want and have...
I would like rare goods that are blocked by factions to be available to buy on the black market. It would be nice if we could use the black market as a black market. The market would have to be a permanent fixture, no matter the Power or faction. The weakness would be possibilities of T-sensor...
So basically me and my friend (Xbox names "Backedheart12" and Snow Train 1991") did a wing mission to hunt a pirate down for 2.5 mil so once we got to said system I jumped out as needed to go afk for a moment to discover the guy was there so me and snow destroyed him in his anaconda and his...
Just an Idea for expanded game play.
I’ve often thought how nice it would be to join one of the NCP wings that fly into Rez sites. The xxx cartel for example.
What would be cool would be to send an invite and the wing to accept you. This could start a whole new “career” whilst you are part of...
I believe the game could use some fresh mission types, and since the next few updates are planned to include such I would like to throw a suggestion here. Plus I would really love to see some more organized fleet battles, as combat zones tend to be quite chaotic never ending "blastfests" fought...
It has come to my attention after the release of 3.0, that there are certainly more players with either the cutter or the corvette, given the changes they made towards mission rewards and the reputation gain with the corresponding federation or imperial navy ranks many of these players which...
A couple of enhancement suggestions:-
1. Mission Board - Mission Types
Would it be possible to create a new mission type - "Mining"... and split the existing Mining Missions away from regular transportation missions please? These are clearly very different activities - so different that all the...
Hi there,
I've been trying to bring about a regime change in my chosen system for a few months now, learning as I go along. I have noticed that if a faction gets into a war in one system, it brings about a general drop in that faction's influence across all the systems in which the faction is...
So I haven't been able to find answer to this question so I thought I would try here. Do data delivery missions/courier(data delivery) missions give credit toward trade rank? If so, do bonuses received on those data delivery missions also count toward trade rank or is only the original amount...
When completing missions, I often get stuck in a process that ultimately boots me from the game. It doesn't seem to be tied to any mission type, but reliably happens when I go to turn in a mission. The process goes something like this:
Launch the mission board
Wait 30+ seconds
An error appears...
Today I joined the forum, hoping to make some future contribution to the community and build myself as a player..
Today I was most upbeat as I had almost finished a passenger mission to Colonia. Now, I had the idea to take a few passengers out there, so I loaded my asp explorer with 3 cabins and...
Elite Dangerous' update cycle and game balance is one of the most neurotic in gaming. They either fail to notice a glitch that causes extremely unbalanced payouts/exploitable payouts, or otherwise take a new fun, rewarding and enjoyable game mechanic and nerf it until it's no longer fun or...
Please remove all squad from solo mode from mission list.
Squad too bad math.

Anyone else noticed this? Prior to the patch, it was possible to make reasonable amounts of credits doing delivery missions, with numerous offerings in the 500k to 1.4m range. Now there are hardly any.
Given that the balance appeared to be about right pre-patch for single player deliveries, I...
I was wondering if anyone else has come across this issues before. I believe a little back story might be needed. I am in route to Colonia. ~8000Ly from the bubble. My buddy asked if I could join his crew to help defend is Type-9 during a Wing mission that pays 13mil Cr. After serveral attempts...
I've noticed that the Mission Boards are getting awfully clogged with "wing" missions. In close to a year and a half of playing, I've only winged-up once and that was for a Fuel Rat. I can't even get another player to spare 30 seconds to confirm an in-game bug I've been trying to report.
I...
I understand that this is a difficult topic to breach in a constructive fashion and that by bringing up the subject I'm immediately opening a can of worms, but this is becoming a real issue for many players and will need to be properly addressed sooner or later. I respect that everyone has their...
Hello everyone,
it seems, that Wing Missions (assasination) are not important to the majority of the players, although its for me.
I was very happy when frontier announced that wing missions will be implemented (something that i was waiting very long for). During beta of 3.0 i already saw...
Hi all,
For the past 2 months or so I've been out in the black exploring in my quest to reach Elite status (earned last week, finally). As a result I've remained somewhat disconnected from the rest of the game - particularly new content - and the community.
Now I'm back in the bubble I really...
Thank you for taking time to read my very first suggestion on the forums!
This morning i was thinking about flying in canyons, skimming across the surface, flying next to cliffs, ... which gave me a mission idea similar to the "scan outpost" missions:
Main idea: The mission's goal is to survey...
