Hi. How, precisely, can we quickly determine which systems and which stations within those systems are suitable for having their holoscreen advertisements hacked with recon limpets? Or is it just a case of wandering around in the dark until we bump into something with hackable holoscreens?
Hacking Holo Adverts

Really? A 2014 account that's never spotted where holo-adverts display in the game?
What strange times we live in.

Depends whether you're planning to use it for Reinforcement or Undermining.
Undermining is easy - all or almost all the adverts won't default to your power, so you can probably assume that most orbital stations will have at least one that you can still hack.
Reinforcement is trickier - there's a good chance of the adverts already being clean there so not needing repairs. The closer the system is to other Powers' systems, the more chance of some or all of the adverts being changed ... whereas plenty of stations a long way from the front lines might have 10 adverts all of which are already fine.
i have just done 2 assignment mission but they tell where to go,if you are aiming to undermine no idea but when you find out let me know.
Hi. This isn't strictly what you asked for but it may help. If and when you find a station with any hackable holoscreens once you've hacked them you can dock at the station, log out, then log back in again and lo! The same holoscreens are hackable once more!
Fly safe..
thanks found that way also going to hostile ststems much the same 64 creds every hack, could keep it up all day lol good luck.
ps dont have log out just move from station to station then back again and repeat till out of limpets'
Your last couple of replies make me wonder if they reduced or eliminated the rep hit for hacking. Before, hacking an advert was a pretty damn big hit (too big imo) to controlling faction rep and you'd be hostile to the station and get lit up like a christmas tree for even approaching long before you ran out of limpets.
Still there, still surprisingly if thematically large - though of course, only applies in Acquisition/Undermining - you can repair adverts in Reinforcement systems as much as you like.
