Acquisition Systems

many issues from my side with this kind of missions.
try to have more rares than needed, at least the double. Sell the request quantity at delivery point, if not completed, close both game and launcher, restart and retry. May work, I was able to complete the mission with this method.

Hello! Any not native english speaker should switch the language to english. There are absolutely ununderstandable and nonsens translations that confuse up to the end. And what an acquisition system is supposed to be....- I should scan megaships in acquisite systems - curious, if it works as well on unoccupied... o7!

So I was looking in this this thread to see if I could find out whether selling rares to a new colonization station counts...based on the ingame galaxy map filter that shows up when you select "map" for a mission, including these systems.

It does not.

P.S. Fdev why on earth are you using inconsistent terminology between "Acquisition", "Unconstested", "Unoccupied", "Expansion", "Contested" - what? How am I supposed to figure out which systems actually qualify for this mission?

It's 2025 and I still don't understand how the map works, it's disgusting, markers fly off, no convenience at all, half of the localization is in the language I speak, the other half is in English, it's crazy! The developers have just become impudent! After updates and changing everything and everyone, I don't understand what to do in this game at all!

Clearly the problem is that the word "Acquiring" or "Acquisition" never appears in the PowerPlay system info on Galaxy Map on the right side. Many other words and visual noise appear (Unoccupied, multiple other statuses like Fortified, Undermining, Stronghold, etc) but never Acquiring / Acquisition.

The filter appears to work, but the filter is hidden in a tiny icon on left-side Power Play in Galaxy Map. If you filter by Acquiring then click any resulting systems you will still never see the word or label "Acquiring" anywhere for the system's info. Also the filter keeps resetting to default instead of resuming whatever choice the player previously did, when of course the player will generally be looking for their own allied power.

Hello! In the meantime I found out, that the easiest way to do it right is, to go to the navigation menue and pick the locations from there (the jobs for merits) - and - in case of eliminating rival powers its important to look, which power in the specified system is rival. Now everything works "properly"

Still have no idea how to do this. Is there a SIMPLE guide on where/how to find aquisition systems in game? I am selling to unoccupied systems near my strongholds but it ain't working.

Is there a filter on Powerplay activities map that i should be using?

I would say for everyone to upvote/confirm this ticket here https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/74954 but the counter-productive ticket system closed it simply because "time elapsed" (which is not how a useful problem reporting system functions).

Notice how, parodically, the helpful screenshot in the previous comment in this thread uses a different word rather than the word referenced elsewhere. People need the tip of clicking second button in the top left, after you click the powerplay button in galaxy map (left side), click the bottom of the two buttons visible near the upper left of the picture.

Managed to do the acquisition systems! Next riddle: Power commodities. First screenshot my cargo, Torval trade agreements from system Hip 95350. Second screenshot, the system i'm in needing Torval trade agreements from Hip 95350! But unable to sell!!!??? :) Is it a time thing, do i have to wait?

These missions seem to be bugged; I had two of them that didn't work. What's suspicious is that when you click on Map in the mission description, a different system appears than the one specified in the text (which also doesn't work). The Torval Discord is: Elite Torval. Easy to find if you are interested.

Tried buying from and selling to a bunch of different systems, nothing seems to work. Powerplay goes back to the ignored gameplay list again, just have to live with these missions stuck there.
