Newcomer / Intro Just a couple of things..

Hey guys, im new to the game and enjoying it quite abit so far, altough 2 things as of right now, bugs me.

1, I bought (before i had played the game) a couple of ship skins.. Sure they do look nice, but i cant sit around the whole day looking at my ship in outfitting right?

Who came up with the brilliant idea, to sell things what can not be enjoyed? As far as i know, there is no way to get 'out of ship' or 3rd person view or anything.
So, what are the ship skins for? Showing off to everyone that "hey look at me, im stupid buying stuff what i can not enjoy"?

2, The galaxy map. Trying to get a route between Mopanyane and Gateway. It's been going for 10+ minutes now.. I can see it spreading routes in each and every
direction but not towards my target.. Who came up with the idea, that "hey, lets make routes in all and every direction instead of towards where the player wants to go"?

20+ minutes now, something is really wrong with this design me thinks.

1. There's things in the works, like external cam drones.

2. Max calculable distance is 100LY. There's a player made app that does plot routes quicker for you though. Check forum

1. In on of the upcoming expansion you will be able to go out of your ship so you can see it then.
Also there where plans to make drones that give you a perspective outside.

2. Well if you jump range isn't good you will need to take the long way around before you get to the target.
Also the Route to was a request from the community.
What i found it is better to just look at the route and jump as far as you can.
Current system only jumps to the nearest system along the route instead of jump to the furthers away .

I just made a long post here but apparently i was cursing and got caught in the "naughty filter" what politely asked me to "go back" and edit your post.
Sure thing i did go back, but there where no post to edit.

Gee. The forums are as buggy as the game is -.- (For one, I've noticed it changes from the black theme to a white theme for no reason afaik or can see)

For using the ingame route plotter (I thought it was 50 ly not 100 but could be wrong) if you want a direct route remember to change the route planning to fastest route in the navigation tab as more short jumps are more cost effective than a couple of long ones.

I think it's a brilliant idea. I'm not much into skins, but merchandising in general should significantly increase Frontiers P&L. Shirts really look nice.

Look at it this way. If I encounter a player with a skin, I will attack him. You wanted attention, you have it. Showoff. :)

I bought the wireframe Cobra skin because all the money they raise goes towards making this game a success which means ensuring future content updates for longer. I see it as a way to support further development of the game.

.. Oh and it looks awesome imo!
