Peoples first plans

[Lafarell]

Grab a beer, relax, heading to the frontier and start mining and trading

 

[MDK-187]

There's only one answer to this (to borrow a quote from another well known franchise)...........

Second star to the right, and straight on 'til morning.

Grab a beer, relax, heading to the frontier and start mining and trading

Grab a non-alcoholic beverage, relax and the same thing. But first studying what path I take to be a good miner. So looking at everything that is available on the market, upgrades and mining equipment.

 

[Nuno]

if possible from the start, pick a random direction and boldly go …… to never return

if not possible from the start ….. work for it

if not possible working for it….. wait until it is

if not possible even then …. Its not a game for me, and my good memories from Elite stay in the past

 

[Tobytyke1972]

Sounds like everybody has been thinking about this,

20+ years in the making, Can't wait until May 30th when Beta starts.

Then its a cold beer, warm Pizza then Good bye to my wife and son. Daddies going into deep space and he may be some time.

Been blown away by what I've seen so far, this is going to epic.

See you all in space real soon. Not long until Tobytyke-Grand-tour.

 

[Zarconian]

Trade, mine and eventually go explore!

 

[Oddball]

I was just wondering what is everybody's plans.

I'll probably just find a bar somewhere and chill out for a while baby. Maybe eat some cheese and drink a little wine.

woof woof! - That's my other dog impression.

 

[Harker]

Hopping into an explorer starter ship and seeing how far I can get, then probably trying to set up an explorer league if supply lines and station seeding are needed to drive towards the galactic rim.

I'll join your explorer league!
I plan to patch up my old Cobra and see what's out there.

 

[mrrockitt]

If funds allow I intend to make for the frontier and keep going to avoid all the 'cotton-picking varmints' before the 'Goldrush' starts!

Yee-haw!!!!

 

[Droptune]

Piracy.

 

[natte hond]

I think one of my sons will drop his lemonade into my new pc.
it will burn the house down and I stay over with one of my friends who hates Computers.
my wife will divorce me because I bought a new pc before I took care off new accommodation.
and the square eyes will get me sacked.

Firstly (before the flaming starts) i know ED is a game on not reality.

I was just wondering what is everybody's plans.

For me, it's first trade around the core systems (Mostly likely empire) until I've amassed enough credits and experience to start the TobyTyke-Grand-Tour.

Do trading around the core federal systems (above and below the counter, especially is Van Maanens star is still a planet of fruit loops) and save up enough for an Orca class vessel.

Then start a luxury cruise service, probably to the outer systems.

That's the dream, anyway

 

[Yaffle]

Plans are to have a look around the core systems, maybe trade a bit.

Reality will be to end up smeared on the inside of a station wall, then get shot up by pirates, having jumped to the wrong system in error.

 

[Cosmo Bozo]

I'll probably create an ironman commander, then crash on take off.

 

[Kettle]

I'm gonna shoot ze ship and steal ze cargo.

For England :smilie:

 

[FS3DPete]

Three commander slots to choose from (unless that's changed recently)...

The 1st will be a Federal Military merc who used to be enlisted, was badly injured while flying in a flotilla with the [REDACTED], had to be medically disharged at the rank of Corporal (as the healthcare budget did not cover long-term care nor expensive reconstructive surgery), spent some time recovering from his injuries, and then took up some trading to amass enough money to buy a combat-capable ship with which to start a mercenary career with the Fed. Military. I haven't selected a start location for this one yet.

The 2nd is my Imperial agent, maybe an assassin or a bounty-hunter. The start location will be appropriate to that character, maybe an Eagle Mk 2.

The 3rd will start out in a Sidewinder and 100 credits.

I'm probably going to write some backstory for all the characters once we know more about the structure of the Elite universe.

If there's a 4th character slot, that one will probably start in the Founder's system... Just to see how that one starts out.

 

[Gelbrock]

Head off and see how many moons I can moon on....

Post it on the intergalactic you tube to the background score of 'Moon River' as sung by Chevy Chase.....

Sit back with a Fazbosch brothers frothy dark ale and watch the hits come in...




ok so its not a noble career, but its my bloody Cobra Mk III
