And as a minor addition: if there are no planets in the system (stars only), you get the "system scan complete" message just from the FSS honk. Had a few of those on my way back to the bubble.

And no, even for a 20x payout, I won't DSS even an ELW around a secondary >200 kls out... at least not until I pick up an SCO ship.

There are still commanders out there not using SCO drives? :)

In my case - more or less stopped paying for a while shortly after SCO came out, and my exploration CMDR had been out in the black longer than that. There aren't that many shipyards between Colonia and Beagle Point.
Now on my way back, also motivated by the DW3 announcement.

Yep, I have ~60 ships and only a handful of SCO Drives, only 2 (?) v1 sco Drives.
I have a live nowadays :cool: But working on it.

I only uprated a few of my ships, but I also purchased one of each size, engineered them and keep them in storage on my carrier ready to be swapped in and out as needed.

Will do the same, but those drive components, man... :eek:

It is definitely a task best done over time. Luckily I’m in the single digit range for ships that I actually use frequently enough on my main to justify getting the pre-engineered version. And my alt… doesn’t even have 10 ships. Some of those I would not bother getting the V1 SCO, probably.

… to say something relating to the CG at least, Frontier definitely made a correct judgement to extend the upper limit to 10 million contributions. Perhaps even 5 would’ve been enough for a 2 week duration but my guesstimate of the early Sunday completion (by EU time) at 1 million wasn’t too far off. I guess people just really wanted a CG even if this one is largely some fluff for colonization coming soon. Still waiting for Titan salvage though.

Some people have speculated there's something new to be found out there and they are pointing us in that direction. Other people think (me), that the requests for an exploration based CG have been heard and they are throwing this our way because it sort of fits in with the colonisation story line. Some people will right and some people will be wrong, that's the way of it!

Okay, sold the cart data, said page worth a little over 5 million, cool. Sold it, and my account increased right at 20 million. Said I turned in 67 reports. I'm at the C level Top 75%, which is listed as 40 million CR, so it seems I'm owed another 20 million if I don't submit any more?

I assume the scanner reward is available after the event is over?

No, the 20 million is the UC earnings (5 million) multiplied by 4 for this CG, hence the 20 million, you will receive the full amount of the CG reward level you have reached once the CG is over, the rewards are never given out before the end of the CG.

Should probably have worded more obviously that it is what I think. I certainly don’t expect we are going to find “Raxxla” (or are supposed to look for it with this).

Neither do I expect there is currently any Thargoids near the Bubble waiting to be discovered. Whatever Frontier have planned with them probably remains a surprise.

Well I am hoping for a surprise or two, probably nothing huge mind you. The specific list of bodies is of interest though;

  • Rocky Ice
  • Rocky
  • Icy
  • Metal Rich
  • High Metal Content
Click to expand...

Why those? Now I will admit that a lot of these types of bodies don't get mapped in the black, or walked on, but there have only been a small number in the bubble while I have been doing the Potato Hunt that haven't been discovered, mapped and walked on where applicable, so I don't personally think it's about finding something new on one of these bodies, but I think there may be some new activity associated with these bodies that come as part of the Trailblazer update that ties in with the CG. Maybe you know the release of a new vehicle type, a mining SRV type of vehicle we can use to mine mats since that seems to be the one mat type that didn't get a big boost when they rebalanced engineering.

Well it's a hope anyway!
