Someone is enjoying the "meta" gameplay. :)

Ironically how I play has become the meta in legacy :) I don't use inara or any other external tools (I don't even use a pen & paper), so not having that info cripples those that relied on it for their BGS work where I just carried on. My ships & tactics are pretty well optimised for how I play from years of experience and I have always either worked alone or as part of a small group (I've rarely been in a full wing) so I am used to working unsupported too.

According to my codex stats I have over 120,000 NPC kills, around 20,000 since the update 14 split IIRC. One of the side-quests I do is train up harmless NPC fighters to Elite. If I'm in a contested war that only takes a week or so ;)

What I certainly haven't ever done is follow the calculated meta. I enjoy figuring things out for myself & naturally that does mean my builds & techniques tends towards being as effective as possible, playing to my strengths & mitigating my weaknesses.

I'm not interested in FPS style play & apart from a few more dockable assets the extra BGS & faction tools in Odyssey don't add anything I'm interested in doing so Legacy suits my style. In live I've been out exploring for years & mostly I do the salad hunting content in a basic Artemis suit with no mods, in theory I'm gathering explo data for tactical use if I return to civilisation but I I have no firm plans to ever return unless something comes up I need to respond to.

There was a brief period where I was in the bubble in both live and legacy but I found it confusing to manage two slowly diverging 'universes' relying only on memory.

A little off topic but AFAIK there isn't anywhere else to dicuss Legacy related stuff. Does anyone know if the route to Rackham's Peak is unblocked in Legacy? (I'm assuming fleet carriers aren't persistent across both Live and Legacy.)

Anything Legacy is welcome here. Can't help you with your question, sadly. I hope that someone in the know stops by shortly.

Actually, iirc the commanders blocking the route were doing so as some kind of weird protest over the way the consoles were treated so it's probably quite likely to be the case.

Ah, cool. Good to know, thanks. Been once a couple of years ago and always fancied a return trip - tried last year sometime and couldn't get to the last system. Time to plan a trip I think!

Yeah I had never made it so I just headed up with no issues . I finished of visiting all 42 regions in my fin and got all permits apart from the one you get for CQC just finishing off stuff I never got round to .

Have they been quietly making small improvements in Legacy? I might be misremembering but I don't recall seeing the lights on the sides of cargo cannisters (I don't mean the flashing lights on the ends) nor the illuminated panels on the crates in wreckage sites:

Wreckage on orbital platforms now seems to have two spotlights on them which I don't remember seeing before either.


I wish they would fix the station facilities not being listed in system maps though.

Having lots of fun in Legacy anyway.
