FD - Please fix missions

[Steve50]

Just totally wasted 3+ hours tonight, got a mission to destroy some skimmers in the system Pemoeri at the settlement called Aldiss Horizons.
spent hours searching the system for this settlement but no.

Even got friends to help look, and eventually we came to the conclusion that the settlement doesn't even exist

Did you do a scan of the planet on approach?

 

[Steve50]

I scanned every planet I could find, some several times.

It's on Pemoeri 5D. Did you try scanning the Nav beacon or looking in the system map in the ports tab which shows landfall planets?

It's there, the mission doesn't need fixing, so your problem is not the game's fault. I realise that you are irritated about this (understandable), but a simple post asking for a little guidance would have got lots of responses in far shorter time than 3 hours. The way you wrote your OP is not likely to engender a lot of sympathy.

Yes please, and not just fetch this or take that. PLEASE, make some proper immersive, emergent missions.

got a quest to go kill pirates in a neighboring system.. only all the pirates i found in the three hazrezzes, two high rezzes (around different planets) several USS and eventually the nav beacon (scanned it said.. "cant find any, guess you'll just have to find them the old fashioned way) were from a different minor faction and I didn't see a single 'mission target' anywhere. after 3 hours I abandoned my 2.3 mil credit quest and lost a whole bunch of rep with my minor faction to boot.

WTB an iron for the kinks.

Funnily enough I got a random mission when on a planet, not at any base (thru comms window) called "Causing Mayhem Contract" to "Hip 115370" to kill 2 Authority. The mission says they belong to Nguna Bridge Industry but the system is controlled by Hip 115370 Incorporated.

Has anyone ever seen Authority ships that don't belong to the controlling faction?

It's prolly a bug but just asking in case I'm missing something.

I believe "the old fashioned way" involves an Interdictor and just flying about the system using your contacts until you find the right ships and then forcing them out of S/C....and murderizing them.

Check who each asset belongs to. Just because a system is controlled by a faction, doesn't mean every asset is. Usually faction based security will be close to the assets they control. Either way, your targets will be labeled as "mission targets" either way.

I have also had kill pirate missions where I've used an interdictor to pull them out of S/C......it's loads of fun! .
