I posted this in response to another thread, but I think the message is important so I am making it a main thread also, was written in response to a new player who made a bit of a mistake about what he was saying then got a lot of negativity about it : Having read a lot now of what has been...

Making the planet/system scan even more tedious and repetitive with the FSS scanner, definately spoiled the fun in exploration. "Hell is all about repetition!" (Quote: Colm Feore - Storm of the Century)

or is it Elite:tedious??? I took a 3 month break. Everything that I found fun was taken away. Exclusively the missions. I was just on for an hour and it was the most boring thing I've ever endured. I'd rather spend an hour trimming my toenails. At least THAT would be fun. O.o I don't even know...

So ... decided to run a Guardian site this evening. Done it once before for the FSD and quite fancy the Shield Reinforcement Modules. Prepped my DBX, jumped out 900LY and ran the site twice. Was okay, I’d maybe go so far as to say I enjoyed it. Now, just need 24 Pattern Delta data scans ...

I enjoyed driving round ancient ruins for ram tah, so I thought I would try again for the guardian mods. The beacon was atmospheric but of little interest, then off to the guardian structure, which was a heightened version of the ancient ruins with bigger sentinels, of course for immersion...

You puck up a salvage mission. It pays a measly 300k. Its a solo mission. Just trying to rep that faction. 1) You have to wait for you USS to spawn, at least it tells you when it does. 2) You drop out to find the cans you need. Great. 3) Then 2 sideys and an eagle drop out, and like magic...

Hello CMDRs, I don't want to open a complaint thread but I have to say something about the system to get Federal Ranks (probably it would be the same for the Imperial Rank as well). I'm doing missions since days to get these Ranks, at the moment I am stuck at Midshipman rank, but is really...

Went all the way to Guardian site at Synuefe GT-H B43-1 C4 Only to discover you can't land a Python anywhere near it. Well done FDev pat yourselfs on the back and have drink what a great idea. Lets put something in the game but make it inaccessible ! Yea a really good idea NOT!!!!!! Cant even...

From the livestream it seems the only new gameplay mechanic in the final chapter of Beyond is mapping a planet. And you can even do that with friends too yay! Sounds thrilling. :rolleyes: The other new bits coming in this release seem to only change the way in which you play with existing...

So.....Out of billions of stars, 42 (codex rumours) things to find. Probably cut and paste ships and ruins. Most will be discovered by canonn in a few days. Also a new lightning instance in witch space, boring after a few goes. Where's the actual game? I want to explore and find unique stuff...

Critics of SL say you must have a reason for it and I agree. Its a lot of work for FDEV just to let us walk around and "oooh and ahhh" for 5 mins then back to standard operating procedures, our butts safely ensconced in our swivel chairs. What are the practical reasons for getting out of the...

Notoriety +1 for running from cops[down] Notoriety +2 for killing a player[up] Notoriety +3 for skimmer strike missions[down] Notoriety +4 for fighting back against cops:S Notoriety +5 for killing trade ships that resist[arrrr] Notoriety +6 for crossfire[down] Notoriety +7 for assassination...

Wanted to play ED for a bit, after being away for a couple of weeks, so I fired it up and spawned in the Amber system (the last CG). Made the four jumps to Bhagui with my AspX (60+ LY), arrived at the CG station and called the combat Krait. Time for transfer 36 minutes and 2M+ cost. OK. Closed...

If I'm given a parking ticket, then the town that issued the ticket is going to be able to receive payment for the fine. Now let's imagine this town is in Hawaii. It would be ludicrous to go into the town office and find a sign saying, "To pay your parking fines, please visit the Los Angeles...

Be what you want to be in Elite Dangerous - trader, explorer, bounty hunter, pirate, smuggler etc., but the Mission Board is not organized by profession, it is organized by faction. The core structure of the Mission Board is an expression of the BGS, it is organized by faction, the types and...
