Community goal rewards .

[SlouchMonster]

The community goals are finished and I don't have new ship.

It said that the top 75% of cmdrs would get a type 6 is tier 1 was reached.

What'd I miss?

Did it mean tier 5?

what?

Reading lessons at school?

"If Tier 1 is reached, the top 75% of participants will receive a permanent Alioth system permit and a Lakon Spaceways Type-6 Transporter. The ship will be delivered and stored at Krylov Ring in the He Bo system by the 26th of March 3307."

Well I do need new glasses (screw the lock down) and orange text on an orange background isn't the easiest to read.

Yep, FDev and their orange obsession, what what

You do know that orange is the new black, right?

Does it mean that CG award t6 has zero rebuy value?

I dont understand how anyone missed the date. I mean look...its miles bigger than the rest of the txt!

Instead of using old-fashioned text they should've included a 20 minute Youtube video instead to explain it!

Presented by The Yamiks, I suppose...

Every week...... do we need to pin a CG faq?

Solution to lack of patience for reading information is more written information?

They could add an in-game 'claim' button that just says 'wait 5 minutes and try again' until Friday night. But I'm sure many would fail to see that too. Hey ho.

Obligatory teasing image post:






BTW - A T-6 as a reward is an insult, I have no idea why anyone would do the CG to win one.

Instant ship to put the two nicely engineered modules in...

Free stuff does odd things to people....!

The Type-6, like its sibling Type-7, is a very underrated ship.

The Type-6 sucks at regular trading (as does the T7), but it's nice for:

• Rares trading (enough cargo space, good top speed, good jump range, lands on medium pads)
• Exploration. Good jump range, lots of module slots.
• Missions to pickup salvage / black box / whatever, as it can take a lot of collectors and has enough cargo space. It can vacuum clean a salvage site quickly and get out of dodge fast due to nice top speed.
• Collecting engineer materials from signal sources.
• Probably other off-the-beaten-path activities I'm currently not remembering.

Stock T-6 costs 1.04MCr (approx) - two runs selling basic meds to Cemiess netted me 1.6MCr. Why drag yourself through enough runs to sell over 1525 in the Alliance CG to get a free T-6? Doesn't make sense to me.

EDIT - BTW I am not knocking the T-6, it is good ship for early-game - I am deriding the use of it as a reward in a CG.

Wouldn't it be a video just over 10 minutes?

I know.. If I hadn't gone off to pick a friend up from near Sag A*, I'd have delivered 10k tons for the T6 too - just for fun - as that would have made 30+ mill profit on selling the meds and around the same for CG reward, the T6, like the modules, would just have been a freebie on top.

I did it for the permit, the only one I don't have. The T6 is just a bonus, and hopefully will make a nice new taxi.

As a total aside, the 'fun' to be had from Frontier introducing double engineering on all modules could be immense... Plus the salt to be had, of course, as the META breaks...
