Getting there...

[Joe nose]

...the game, I mean.

Just played 3 hours solid (bit of a luxury for me that). Did nothing but trade, pleased as I finally amassed enough to acquire a Cobra. Not a single hang exiting super cruise. Practically no jittery stations whatever.

Space was very busy...amusing to see queues building up behind Lakons at Aulin Enterprise. Soon as the space cow clears the entrance the mass of Sidewinders, Eagles and Cobras which pile in remind me of teenagers trying to win the traffic light grands prix :smilie:

Basically watching the world go by was atmospheric as hell. And a relaxing break from combat.

Didn't see a single incident where a player fired on another, and I saw a lot of players. Did see an npc system security sidewinder shoot down a starter sidewinder, don't know what the deal was there.

So... griefers what griefers?

Very similar experience to me,

The space stations are bustling with human life going about their businesses, In the alpha it was kind of rare bumping into humans for me, now I'm starting to see familiar names.

Not had any grief, well I think I did get one, but I was on the toilet so missed what happened, I just returned dead.

I've enjoyed watching the humans doing there thing, flybys, pottering about, especially the docking chaos.

The last run before I bought my Cobra I was interdicted right in safe designation at the spacestation by a few NPC pirates while I was in a almost unarmed hauler. They chased me all the way to the station, got me down to 10% hull and then the fed fighters and the odd human jumped in to defuse the situation.

Docked and swapped my busted up Hauler for a nice little Cobra I had had my eye on for a while.

Fun times.

Same here.

I'm loving the busy look to the stations, before I'd see the odd human now it's five to ten every time.

My only wish would be to have more NPCs doing trading/non system security stuff. I know, I know, it will come.

Also to agree, no PvP seen by me today at any of the stations I've been to.

The stations were busy yesterday too....funny watching all the small ships zip in and out until a big Lakon comes lumbering in or out...everyone spins or bobs around until it's clear then wham...India traffic patterns again.
