Just "Docked" in Tesco car park...

Sigh

I think I've been playing too long.

Just requested docking out loud whilst approaching Tesco.

Then recited, out loud, "docking successful, engines disengaged" as I parked.

Oh boy...

I heard a rumour that on Monday (in the Beta) if you buy an Eagle at some stations, you get another one free! ;)
Be prepared though for possible computer crashes when you're at the checkouts, I've also heard the queue's are going to be horrendous there too.
Ps...don't forget to ask for your 'Elite Dangerous fuel clubcard points' (EDF...CP's), you can redeem these at most fuel depot's within the systems, or use them in trading up with some certain ship upgrades.

Oh!...and have a nice day btw. :D

Jack :)
 
I have to be careful driving now. When the people in front of me are going too slow, I want to fly above them and hit boost...

I really had to stop myself after getting off the freeway last weekend...
 
You see a shopping trolley full of computers slowly orbiting the car park and you try to scoop it up with the front of your car.
 
What about pad reallocated, please request clearance again ? :)

That happened yesterday when I had to drop my better half in town for her "Elite: Dangerous Premium Beta Addict-Sponsored Shopping Trip"

As I drove through masses of filled spaces I was imagining "Pad Allocation Error" each time someone filled a space I wanted.

The Hydrogen Fuel Station was jam packed as well, so I couldn't claim my Pilots Federation (in association with Tesco Clubcard) 0.10 Credits per Ton discount either. Sad times!

My Mercedes/Faulcon Delacy E220/Cobra Mk III Estate/Cargo Bay Extension currently has a range of only 1.2 ly... :(
 
As long as no one tries to park on top of your car....

Even more scary is when you're walking around the Commodities superMarket, putting cargo into your trolley, sorry - cargo hauler, and the whole place disappears, leaving you slowly rotating in the middle of the street.

Having said that, the people in the Tesco Anarchy system tend to keep their distance at the sight of a levitating, rotating person holding a trolley full of Terrain Enrichment Systems (bags of compost).
 
This reminds me of when I played Ultima Online lots. And then some more.

If anyone played UO, you'll have probably had a key to show all names on the screen ( before autonames was implemented ). Now in UO you have blue or red names, red names for murderers & PKs.

So whenever you were out in the wilds and saw someone you immediately hit your names key, mine was F5.

One night I was walking home late through the town centre, I turned a corner and a large crowd of youths were crowded around a bench, I mentally reached out to press a non existent F5 in front of me to check they were safe!

I got very confused that there was no keyboard and mouse with me.
 
That's nothing.

I bought a basket of fish, and two trolleys of tea from one market chain, and tried to sell it at profit at different chain only to be turned away, pointed at and mocked. Broke even by selling it back. These trade routes are rubbish round here.

Did you try the black market?
