I think most of you guys are crazy (no offense :)). So much talk of ships when the real beauty of this update should be tons of actual game play. At this point I no longer care about ships. But if 1.3 gives us reasons to use all these different ships more than earning creds for the next ship then I will be in heaven.

Want I want is to grab a meaningful mission for my chosen faction, complete it (perhaps with some PvP thrown in :)), and see my effort affect the galaxy.

I want to belong to something and fight against something and I want those things to be clearly defined. When I see a player or NPC of an opposing faction, I want it to be expected that we are enemies and will fight.

And if this is all wrapped up in missions that are fun, complex and varied then FD will have nailed it.

Wow, that was scary!

My internet just went down. Luckily it came back up again after rebooting the router but I was worried for a couple of minutes. Of all days to have internet issues.
 
Whilst waiting for "1.3 beta day" I tried mining last night as it's the only thing I hadn't done (apart from piracy or psycho killing) in Elite. Despite the comments I've read in the forums, I actually found it fun, chasing the fragments around whilst trying to avoid the spinning asteroids.

However, I did come to the conclusion that you can't make much profit in the same time as other professions so I am looking forward to seeing the changes to mining in 1.3 and seeing if that helps with profits.

I may still on occasion do it the old fashioned way (chase fragments around) when I am not after profit but instead a bit of a change from my normal activities in Elite :).

I agree that mining isn't very boring. Imo, exploring is the best way to fall asleep in the cockpit because there isn't much to do or think about. As for making money at mining, try looking for a pristine metallic ring system, and carry enough firepower to kill the pirates. This is the most profit/hr that I've ever made in the game. Once 1.3 comes out, it will be even more profitable.

What are you talking about? How can we possibly focus on the important things when there are new shinies available... :)
 
I hope everyone else completed their NDA email, I nearly didn't notice it, for some reason it went into my Junk folder.
