Hi everyone - I have been out of Elite for a few months but have 100's of hours playing Elite in VR using my Oculus Rift. I basically had other things to do and have loads of credits and I had all the ships I wanted and I engineered my ship pretty much as far as I wanted, without grinding every single engineer, so I lost some interest.
I have two questions and would appreciate anyone who has thoughts on this.
I have a hankering to come back to Elite, I miss it. I have missed out on the whole Thargoid thing (I was hyperdicted once before I stopped playing). What do you suggest I do to get my juices flowing again in the game? I have done just about everything Elite has to offer. I have traded, done passenger missions, mined in asteroids and surface and spent lots of time bounty hunting. I am not great at any one thing but am not bad at all of them so any suggestions would be welcome.
After the break I am confused with a lot that is going on, I don't know anything about the new alien engineered equipment for ships or even if I am ready or able to help with the Thargoid threat. I need some guidance, I have searched YouTube but I don't know which are still relevant or current (for example some things I have seen have subsequently been nerfed by Frontier).
I know this is a long and boring post, I don't expect many of you to reply, but know that anyone who does I will be grateful to them.
One last thing for fellow Oculus users - has anyone come up with a good way of using Dash just so I can type responses to other commanders when they send a message of Hi or o7. I normally wear glasses and I have lense inserts so I can wear my Oculus without glasses so I cannot just look through the nose gap and type.
