What are the more player populated systems? I don't encounter real folks as often as i'd like, even in starter areas like Eravate.

Go where the CGs are- lots of cmdrs around those.

Also, it might depend on your instancing and your Internet/NAT settings if you hardly ever see anyone in Eravate?

My God that's something else I have to Google. I'll add it to the list :)
Yeah, no joke. I have my controller in my hand, a Laptop to my left for Discord and a Tablet to my right for EDDB, Inara and Smartglass. This game...
 
Yeah, some of us like to consider the game's complexity as a helpful doorman, keeping out the undesirables. The average CoD junkie who accidentally buys ED will find this.
It does all start clicking though. Look at this way you presumably were enjoying a nice new space game which was a tad difficult but you got the hang of docking and making your way round then you discover CGs and then PowerPlay. Then you wonder what that module does and why it's better than the others. Then you wonder how Refineries work. Then you hear about Sag A. etc etc etc
Before you know it you've got ten times the game you thought you had, albeit that you need an encyclopaedic memory AND seven other apps running elsewhere... There's nothing quite like ED.
 
What Icono said, was about a week after I started playing I discovered power play; blew my mind that there was even more to this game. I love this game for its lack of hand-holding, I am a big boy now, I can cross the street on my own.
 
And I have not even bothered with powerplay after near 700hrs of playing - there is so much value in this game it's unreal :)

I looked into Powerplay and decided I couldn't be bothered with the sheer number of systems which would become hostile once I'd pledged. Plus it looks like a major timesink in a game which is already a major timesink!

Don't mention 'value' or FDev might get ideas about the pricing! If they do though we could always say we'll pay per Gig. How they've managed to fit ED into only 6.5Gb is beyond me. A feat matched only by the original Elite fitting in 29Kb. Yes, kids, Kb. A millionth of a gig. :eek:

They could charge me 50quid for horizons and I'd happily pay it ;)
