Escape Pods... wait, what?!

[rootsrat]

Escape Pods to transport are from the missions directly? They don't mean the ones I was collecting all evening in extremely dangerous conditions, related to Thargoid Interceptors?

But seriously, can I unload the ones I collected from space somewhere specific to the new Thargoid war framework? Or do I just sell them the old fashioned way? I wonder if they pay more for them on the RR megaships than in a star port...

Did not test but with the regular burning stations the missions asking for occupied escape pods actually have a lot less credits than a Search and rescue nearby

That doesn't quite make sense. I'm on my way to a rescue ship now.

Rescue Ship Seacole, Kanawas system. Spent the whole evening collecting these: 61 Occupied, 34 Damaged + 3 Black Boxes I had stashed on my carrier for some roleplay.

Let's have a look how the game rewarded me for my efforts to help save these brave AX pilots that were defeated by Thargoids:

Good one FDEV. Don't get me wrong, the scavenging gameplay in a Thargoid system was great. Engaging, dangerous and a great adventure - but this? Reward to effort ratio is, how shall I call it without swinging the banhammer at myself...?

Meanwhile, 24 million for scanning a plant three times in an unpopulated system

Baby steps but with giant (space) feet sort of a deal

But seriously, this is really underwhelming. Not that it's any different from how it's always been, more or less, but I hoped for an improvement here with this new Thargoid war.
