So are you in Colonia permanently? How is it like in terms of Open play?

Do you come across Gankers or is there a more friendly playerbase out there? Also how populated is the main station Jaques? Is it similar to Jameson Memorial? :D

Yea I migrated here and I think this is my new home. I am an explorer at heart but I like combat and the freedom of Anarchy in such a remote place. I came here to get away from superpower oppression and the mundane and the open play and group here are true players with the passion and to have fun.
It truly is a wild frontier ..for now until its overran by FCs 😆
As far as gankers, depends on what your definition of that is😉
I have only run across friendly players and not made enemies yet but have had limited time playing since my main arrived due to RL stuff. I will definitely log in this weekend. My screen name is the same in game if anyone wants to add. 🙂

I'm on board, and I suspect I'll wake up in a different part of the galaxy since I'm on the other side of the pond (I'll be snoring IRL when the FC launches). I didn't encounter anyone in Open, but I like the nice gentleman running ATC - he almost made me feel like it was my fleet carrier!

BTW, I have no shields, and you have no repair services, so I hope somebody has a repair limpet or two if I get into trouble!

I docked my Python a few minutes ago, time to return for a short visit to Colonia and unlock the engineers.
I guess many things changed since the "early days" and the community goal to repair Jaques' Station !? That was a good 1000 jumps back then...
Hmm… I'll wait and see

If I find the time in between, I'll log in and say hello.

P.S.: I'm ready to donate 240t Tritium (at least, the Python's hold is full right now) after we have arrived.

If anyone missed this carrier but still wants a lift to Colonia over the weekend, the Colonia Express (has all services active except Secure Warehouse) will departing in a few hours (14:00 UTC June 13). The Colonia Express is also planning to make a return trip to the bubble on June 22.

Is this a ferry service? I always wanted a proper ferry between Colonia and the Bubble, like we have between here and the Guardian site close by. People be like, "That would ruin the game, yo!" Now I be like, "Well yo, now a CMDR can offer this service and I think it is great!" I'd be half-tempted to do it myself, but I'll never be able to afford a FC.

Anyway, the name of your FC kinda implies this might be something you're considering. LMK, as I would be interested in bringing more posh ships to Colonia someday (on this trip I'm in a disposable Sidewinder "just in case").

Hey OP, for convenience sake, any chance you could park near the main star instead of thousands of LY away? I'm trying to fit in a little exploration between jumps, but I'm worried I might miss the boat in the time it takes to supercruise to your carrier. Thanks!

If you've never been to the system before you can't choose where to park, sadly. Fortunately our mid-way stop today is a system I have scanned before, so I'm gonna drop us into orbit directly around the planet with the Guardian ruins :)

Okay, makes sense. Thankfully I made it back to the FC by the skin of my teeth. Somebody is obviously flying this thing, but I'm not seeing anyone in my instance or system chat. Is this a bug or is everyone in Solo with chat off?

I logged out for now. I do enjoy this ferry service. It's cool to wake up in a different part of the galaxy!

I'm flying it, and keeping a close eye on the forum here and Discord... just in case somebody doesn't quite make it :)

That's so weird. Anyone else there with you? I'm assuming you're not a griefer or racist system chatter (ie - you shouldn't be on my blocklist). OH, and more importantly, what platform are you on?

PC. I think there's odd things going on. I just got a "No Free Slots" message for the next system I wanted to jump to... about 9,000ly from the bubble 🙄

I'll clear my blocklist later just in case (might be a "bad guy" on your FC). It'll be interesting to see how instancing works away from the FC, like down on that Guardian planet. I can also friend you in game to see if that helps any.

ps - I'm enjoying the ride! Too bad I can't watch the jump animations (dumb Frontier).

I doubt I've ever done anything to be blocked, I always play in Solo. Cmdr Travers if you need to look me up :)
