Hello Community!

I haven't really played ED since january because i got bored of it and i didn't liked the way you had to earn money. The only way was pretty much to go trading which is incredibly boring for me.
I wanted to ask if something noteworthy changed in the meantime? Are you finally able to earn a decent amount of money via bounty hunting in a reasonable amount of time? Are there some new fun missions except "go there and kill 5 of that" or "go there or there and find that guy and kill him" ?
I also saw the launchtrailer of powerplay today but the patchnotes don't explain anything. Can someone provide a link with additional information so i can see what exactly is new in that update and how it works?

The last time i played i was in my cobra equipped with pulse lasers and plasma accelerators. Did something changed or is it still a reliable config to kill bigger ships? Sometimes i could basically onehit ships that were my size. I was also able to kill pretty much everything because i could just spam my shield cells. I heard that something changed regarding them but i am not sure anymore what changed. Would be nice if someone could tell me^^

I appreciate any piece of information you guys could give me, even if you just link to other threads.

1.3 is basically new ships, sounds, better and smoother graphics, upgraded AI, new missions, new modules, 10 powers you can join with tons of new features. It is a pretty insane update. :)

Interesting that it asked me to download a new client and i had to rename the new one from .dmg to .exe :D

for some reasons its not even downloading the update?

RES hunting was a very good way of farming credits via bounty hunting (I was earning between 1.5 - 3 mil / hour in a vulture), apparently it has become a bit tougher during this update due to AI improvements. Not a bad thing though.

Well let's put it this way. When 1.2 hit i was in a Clipper struggling to raise the 16 million credits for an A6 shield. I now have a fully fitted out Python, a fully fitted Clipper (with a 50 million credit A7 shield), a very effective Vulture, a T9 and an exploration fit Asp. All earned from bounty hunting and community goals.

You've missed out on a lot.

Community goals are a good way to get several million credits in a couple of days. There is a sticky with active CGs in this forum.

Oh wow. And i always dreamed about getting the clipper but it was so far away :D


Btw anything new about the ships that people who bought the game before the gamma phase should get?
