That's going to be hard request to go along with.

I want to take all my ships with me this time and the FC enables this.

Now, if it is possible, I could be willing to store all my ships on one of the official carriers but.... has anyone tried to stress test FCs to see what happens if hundreds or even thousands of players all park loads of ships on them? Ok, they are effectively stations, so same rules should apply. How many commanders have their entire fleet parked at Shin Dez right?

But maybe someone should run this by FD?

Yes I'm sat here whittling my list of ships down having just registered.
One Sidewinder, 8t Hauler, long range Adder, one racer (or all three?), my exploration ship (or do I leave her behind?), a miner (T8) to help out?, a large hauler (the PC?) or do I go medium hauler with range???, three French hens, two turtle doves, and a partridge in a pear tree (going a little crazy)

I tried to register from my Mac and 'computer said no'
It was a breeze from my PC though. Hope I've got in, not many places left ( <50 )

I can't put into words how excited I am to experience "MetaElite" during the expedition. You guys have added another full layer onto the game! I'm speechless and it sounds awesome! Community developed software delivering community driven sidequests is crazy and I'm super excited to be a part of this to enjoy the blood, sweat, and tears you've all poured into this effort for a community that you all so obviously deeply passionate about and that passion is infectious!

Check Drew Wagar's twitch stream next week (July 23rd), there'll be a live demonstration of MetaElite. Then later this year we'll be opening it up for public testing.

It was inevitable.

They'll be faced with a Bubble from which all the easy targets have gone. Rather than engage in actual PvP against challenging opponents, they'll cross the galaxy to find unarmed ones.

Just stay in the PG and you'll be fine

Sounds like a good opportunity to populate the block list.

Not really. The Fleetcomm PG should be reasonably safe, in case of any mishaps you'll respawn on one of the DW3 carriers (remember to dock there first, and keep your cartographics and exobio balance healthy), and if you get really bored you'll always have someone to play with.
