Just seen a human player!!

I just saw a human player on my radar as I was leaving a platform!!!

Big deal, right?

Yes it is, because I am playing in solo.

I call shenanigans. Braben stated that Human Players™ will be the 1.5 update. 1.3 hasn't even gone to Beta yet, so you couldn't possibly have seen another human playing.
 
If you're serious, I hope you've ticketted the bejaysis out of it- as that's a bit worrying. I don't want to scare you- but you might just be an NPC.

That brings up an interesting question... If an NPC becomes self aware, would the game treat it as an actual life form and display it on the scanners as a 'real' person? /ponder
 
It's just your mind playing tricks on you. This game does that when you've spent many consecutive hours in space. For example, I swear I keep hearing a male voice screaming in my ship.
 
Beware! You've stumbled onto the terrible secret of Elite Dangerous Solo Mode - that in fact the only things they change are:


  • Remove the 'CMDR' from the front of player names.
  • Don't display player ships with hollow icons on the scanner.
  • Disable player comms.

Unfortunately, one instance malfunctioned on you and removed these changes.

Remain where you are. FD representatives will be with you shortly.
