No Event Information In the Game

Been playing the game throughout the month of December.

Had no idea the Gifts event took place. I had to see it mentioned on ANOTHER forum that is completely unrelated to Elite, before I knew about it. At all.

And I've been PLAYING YOUR GAME throughout the month.

The current system Frontier relies upon to deliver information to players rewards people MORE for spending time outside the game, crawling forums and reading websites, than it does for actually PLAYING the game.

Simple solution: Notify us of events IN the game. A pop-up message when we load into our ship. A notice to check messages or forums even, though less ideal, would be helpful. Right now people PLAYING your game have NO way to see what is happening in your game, while people who just crawl forums and websites are rewarded with this information because they were doing something OTHER THAN actually playing.

So, thanks for giving me yet another reason to thoroughly regret purchasing Horizons. I'm...not angry. Just discouraged, with Elite and Frontier. Powerplay and top ten spam has made Galnet useless in the game, and now we HAVE TO crawl forums just to have any idea of what's going on in the game we could be playing instead.
 
So, you have never looked on the launcher, seen the forum tab and looked at the 1st thread sticky thread then. You never sought help or asked how can I get more out of the game? Take it you don't read Galnet either? You want spoon feeding too?

Sorry zero sympathy, but by all means if you have questions ask or go to the newbie threads or oh hang on you 'unwrapped' the game and went banzai then blame everyone for you not trying to find out a little about how to best play the game your way.
 
It's in the launcher, and it's in the Galnet feed. What you want is some kind of pop-up or really big "GO HERE DO THIS" marker on your map. Elite has never done that, and never will.. not that kind of game.
