Flying around in 2.02

[gamecat]

Watching it develop from Beta I'm amazed how much polish and richness is now being injected into the game. Superb!!!

Hehe, I was like you, before beta1, waiting for access to the game others were raving about.

There used to be a glitch in the tutorial missions when you destroyed the Anaconda at the same time of your own destruction, then the next reload into this mission would open up the system for you, i.e. you were able to supercruise and to dock at the space station in that system.

It is probably fixed by now, and you have now a space station to dock with and fly around included, anyways.

There is no space station to dock with in the combat demo that I can see.

Dropping into an unidentified signal source and seeing a Wedding Barge flanked by a wing of Asps. Would have been nice to be able to contact the barge and pass on my commis...ermmm...congratulations!

There is also a similar funeral progression USS. But I'd say it gets a bit old once you see it 4 times in as many hours of gameplay… These kinds of events should have a long cooldown once you've seen it, otherwise it doesn't feel like a living galaxy but a galaxy with a fairly small number of random encounters repeating without rhyme or reason.
