I meant in the context of that storyline developing over 2 (or was it 3?) years.
I haven’t

- Done any on foot engineering

- Done PP
- Deliberately played the BGS
- Committed piracy
- Unlocked anything Guardian other than the FSD booster.

I truly hope so! It was amazing piece of content and storytelling!
He's nice as ninepence if you bring a fine Chianti & Flava Beans with the excape pods...And I was thinking I was the only one! That dude...yeah.
While the war proper was started on 29 November 3308 with the arrival of Taranis and lasted for two years until the destruction of Cocija on 18 December 3310, I would say it all started with Adamastor, which was I think Halloween 2020*.
*Until then, Thargoids were just out there in the background. There were a few skirmishes and passive aggressiveness but that "cold war" never really warmed up before all the Azimuth's misconducts and ethically questionable research came to light and the man responsible appeared on the scene.
I've not visited quite a few of the Galactic sectors - maybe one day!
I'm certain I saw a GGG not long after I started playing, some 100's of light years below galactic plane, under the bubble. (I didn't know it was anything unusual then)
Not seen most of the original Bio or the new
Never discovered a ringed ELW
Can't think of anything else I may have missed ATM, maybe more later.

I have not visited a dead Titan yet, maybe I should. What does it take to go there these days?
Cool runner (sub 20%), collector limpets, corrosion resistant cargo racks - you should be good.

I've fought at the Titans', so I'm good with that. Just wondering how much of a hostile place it still is - is the anti-guardian field still a thing? Still hostile goids around?
You can go there with any old ship, the most dangerous thing you'll run into is pirates wanting any cargo you've picked up. The occasional goid may show up but unless they're scythes and you're collecting people, they won't really pursue you.
I am absolutely certain that one day you will be in a bar at one station or another and see the scars on the face of the player next to you. You will ask him how did you get those?
He'll tell you all about the war, the battles, the pain, the rebuy screens, all the suffering that took place. He'll tell you about the rescues, the passengers stolen by the thargoids, the failed attempts to retrieve the helpless prisoners.
"There isn't enough root beer in this bar on any planet or station to make me forget all of that" he lamented as he took another sip of his drink.
And then he'll turn slowly towards you and ask "What did you do during the war?" Imagine his reaction. And then he'll slowly think about it and then add "Wait until the Guardian AI show up."
Out of those, I've not done Beagle Point (and already know I will never do it), seen planets colliding on Youtube only but not in-game iirc, same for the Green Gas Giant one. I have attempted but never completed the Ram Tah mission (and never will now).Inspired by a few recent threads and posts by various people I decided to make a list of rather popular things in Elite that I've not done yet, despite my well over 7k hours in the game.
Here goes then. Despite 7k hours in the game, I have never:
That's all I can think of for now - and that's just on my main account. I've barely touched my 3 alt accounts in the last 10 years
- Progressed through any Navy ranks for both sides
- Used any of these ships:
- Alliance Challenger
- Alliance Chieftain
- Alliance Crusader
- Asp Scout
- Federal Corvette
- Federal Dropship
- Federal Gunship
- Imperial Cutter
- Been to Mitterand Hollow
- Seen planets colliding
- Been to Beagle Point
- Seen a Green Gas Giant
- Pirated another player
- Unlocked all of the engineers in the Bubble
- Unlocked all of the engineers in Colonia
- Got any Powerplay module
- Solo'd a Thargoid interceptor above Cyclops
- Unlocked all 3 Guardian SLF's (I have 2)
- Done the Ram Tah's Guardian Obelisks mission
Post yours! (Or just put "I've done it all" if you have
Apart from those, I've done all the above and various other things, in some cases several times over (due to multiple CMDR wipes over the years).
I have about 2k fewer hours on you, so I'm genuinely curious what you did actually do in all that time, CMDR rootsrat
Hi
Fat chance of me recognising a green gas giant, I'm quite colourblind between the greens and brown and red spectrums, so I've most likely seen one but not recognised it as such.
I've not...
1. Killed another player in combat intentionally or otherwise.
2. Been to Sag A, (though I've been to Colonia).
3. Played in a group other than general 'meet ups' in space in open.
4. Done any on foot engineering.
5.Taken part in the recent Thargoid war (I'm intentionally trying to keep my commander on a friendly level if that might count in some future constructive confrontations).
6. Hired the fuel rats assistance (I've just died, lonely and forgotten in deep space, I like steep learning curves!).
7.Ttravelled around a planet in just the SRV.
8. Met up with any other Alien Civilisations in face to face encounters.
9. Seen or heard from the Golconda or it's crew since it left the Upaniklis System
10. First discovered a black hole.
I shall try and add to this list as time and gameplay allows!

Right, just crossed one off my bucket list - just went to the remains of Leigong. Awesome place in VR. Not much to do, really, and I am certainly not hang around to find a unicorn Titan Drive Component, but it's very cool.
The strangest one I have discovered was fairly recently, it was so small I actually couldn't find it easily!
No. That is a JGG, they are only related by colour.
Isn't that just the sweetest li'l thing.
You resisted the urge to put it in your hangar and take it home?
