Colonia Engineers

This is a response. A) a lot of people went to Colonia before there were engineers. B) The choice was made given the situation at the time. FDev changed it. They have deliberately caused unnecessary grief for people.

I asked you a question i believe and you refused to answer. Can you try now please?

It's just a game if it causes you to feel grief, unnecessary or otherwise you are doing it wrong.
 
I've started an account for Colonia on my PS4 a few months ago, I only unlocked Farseer and Elvira (had the Invite from Todd but never went to see him)

So I have G5 FSD and G3 DD Blueprints bookmarked which was nice as I've build a decent fleet in Colonia.

Since the patch I only had 1 Engineer Invite, Mel and that was via a Mission I found :)

Need to grab some bounties to unlock fully.
 
If there are any Cmdr's in this post currently out in Colonia & would like some credits, I currently have 156 million cr in completed wing missions that I am happy to share. If you would like some, meet me in Asura at Mizuno Dock at 19:00 in game time in open for your share. Msg me in game so I know that's why you've come. Remember you my have to re log in order to get in the right instance. If I can find more gold before 19:00 it will be 206 million cr. First 3 to direct Msg me I will wing up and divy out. Last time I made this offer no body came.

Edit. It will be 206 mil

Speaking as someone out in Colonia who has NOT been back to the Bubble since Engineers was released, I am somewhat disappointed that the Colonia Engineers cannot be unlocked/interacted with without first having to go back to the Bubble.

My playing time has been significantly curtailed in the last couple of years which is why I only made it as far back as Colonia from DWE. As my playing time wasn't about to (and still hasn't) significantly improved, I chose to remain in Colonia and engage with whatever Content is out here whenever I do get the time to play.

Nobody (as far as I understand by skimming through this thread) has been asking for complete unlocked access to all of the Colonia Engineers. What some people _ARE_ asking for is a local way to discover and unlock them in order to engage with them. At my current gametime availability, it would probably take me another year to get back to the Bubble, unless I try Buckyballing (something I don't do as it's not fun for me). And once back in the Bubble, I'd probably just stay there in order to engage with the other new Content that's been added since I was there last instead of returning to Colonia.

But in short: adding new Content to Colonia with which you can only engage with after having fulfilled some prerequisites in the Bubble is a rather silly decision.
 
It only took over 100 million to get three fully engineered ships to Tir for me. And the alt account took two weeks (realtime) out of my life while doing it.

I would have to reduce the main account to engineered parts, then fly out in my most essential ships, just as the alt account did. My engineered Cobra 3 took nearly a week in ship transfer time, after flying the Asp Explorer out, and then shipping the engineered parts for the Python out there. Stock Pythons are available at Colonia Hub for 68 million. The price in LYR discount space was 45 million. Transferring the entire ship would have been unthinkably expensive. Stripping the maxed, engineered parts, was the only way to do it, in stages.

Don't patronise people by saying Colonia is a snap, if you can plan. It's like moving to Point Barrow, Alaska. *Everything* has to be flown in. Certain modules are simply not available.

Colonia is a remote refuge, to escape the storylines.

I should point out that Barrow is a nuclear target....Ground Zero is Wiley Post Field. :(
