Thanks to all

Hey all. I’m back. Sort of. Been away for over a year. I got bored with the game. I guess the performance bothered me on my Xbox One X and the text in the game is so small. And I like a story. With missions etc like other games have. In D I don’t have a goal except to get all ships fully upgraded. And explore. But I get bored. It’s a bit simmy for me. I like it but I wonder how it’d be if dog fighting was a little easier. Little bit arcade. Not much just a bit. But man the text in the game is just too small.

I have the Xbox SeriesX now for a week or so. Downloaded ED on internal. Very nice.Still have to use performance mode though. But it’s better. Auto HDR is nice.

I have some mental issues and major depression is one. I’m so incredibly lonely. I live alone. Don’t go out much even before the virus last March 2020. And I can’t wear a mask having extreme Anxiety disorder and claustrophobia with masks. So ugh. But I cry a lot. Spend time with the Lord sometimes.

I wanted to give every one here thanks for making me laugh occasionally. I need it. I read here yesterday and some of you made me laugh. I thank you so much. God has shown me how much I need people in this difficult time. How I need to be social. And you guys saying funny stuff, being silly, light hearted is very special. I just wish I knew some of you as friends. I desperately need friends.

I want to get back in the game but I struggle with getting used to it again and the small text and don’t like the idea of being able to lose everything having to start over.

Anyway. Thank you so much.

Stay with us here and also in game! Even if the game looks quite empty, we all are there. Just in different devices, modes and time zones.
And many of us who take a break from the game are here, on the forum, definitely.

o7 cmdr! Your post is very touching. There are some great groups out there with some great friendly people. There is a groups and squadrons section in the forums here. I totally get your point about small text. I'd complain about so many games having small text, and then one day against my wishes my wife made me go to the eye doctor, turned out that I needed glasses and now seeing is not a problem for me! I didn't think I needed glasses but found out I did! This is one of the best games of our time. Yes, it's difficult but that is part of the fun, who wants an easy game, right?

A small word of advice for you cmdr. Next time you see a hollow square on your scanner send out an "o7".
In my experience many of us will reply and gladly chat away to fellow cmdrs.
Personally I've made some great friends doin exactly that, I sincerely hope you have the same outcome as I have, this is truly a great game and it only gets better with company.

If you ever see my Gt in game hit me up id gladly fly with you.

You're not alone mate, you'll probably find that many of us here cope with various afflictions and isolation.
I completely understand how depression & anxiety can feel as I suffer from both of them myself and after losing my job & lively hood due to Covid restrictions I also spend a lot of time by myself with just my cats for company.

I don't really get a chance to play on Open because of the extra cost on Xbox and money being tight, but if you ever have any questions about combat ship builds, engineering or gameplay in general just send me a message.
I play pretty much all day everyday and I'm always on the forums, so I'm always around in one way or another.

Stay strong & fly safe CMDR

You guys. Man what a group.

I need people. So much. I feel this community is pretty good. People have posted some deeply personal stuff about loved ones passing on and have made me cry many times. One showed a video he made for his mom. It was so heartbreaking. And people here are awesome. I wish so much I could get to know on a real basis everyone. That would surely lift me up. And I wish I could lift up others too.

I’m really liking ED on my Xbox Series X even though I only tried it for 20 minutes or so. I never could tell a difference between quality and performance so I’ve always used performance for years. But it’s smooth now on the Series X. Mostly. Finally.

I want to have friends to fly with. Hang out with. Talk to. Learn from. Laugh with.
Buggs1a is my Xbox name.

One thing I could have help with is engineering. I never got with those guys. Except I met the first one after the Engineers update came out. I haven’t played much but didn’t bother with that. But now I want to. I’m in LFT 37 I think. Roentgen station or however it’s spelled.

I have several ships. The Anaconda I think. And smaller. But only basic gear. 53 million credits in the bank. But I’m afraid of losing stuff so that’s one reason I don’t play lately. I don’t like the idea of losing everything if I blow up. That’s just something I disagree with.Even with insurance. But I still really like the game. Just that insurance and stuff bugs me.

I don’t know where my mic is but would love to try again the game with fly buddies. I just need help and time getting used to this. Controls etc.And I really am interested in getting into Engineering.

You won’t lose your stuff as long as you’ve got the credits to rebuy.
There’s been a bit of credits buffing and rebalancing lately so it’s quite easy to make money.
Just read the mission briefs carefully before you accept them.

Unlocking Engineers isn’t as bad as people make out and a lot of them make you engage with various aspects the game like combat, mining, smuggling, etc.
All the materials you need for engineering can be found from just playing the game or occasionally as mission rewards.
There’s some good guides to get you started in the newcomers and ship builds sub forums.

Yep. Everyone is great.
Last Thursday I was diagnosed with Shingles. So I’m home even more now. Ugh.
Still hoping for friends to fly with. Please.

Nothing is off sir <O

I viewed a thread entitled 'Thanks to all' and read a post from someone who has stated they easily get bored, have mental issues/major depression, an anxiety disorder, claustrophobia and cries a lot.

To be honest, and with respect, I didn't feel qualified to make a comment.

We are all victims of something in our lives, and people vary in the way they can handle those particular issues (which in turn can vary in seriousness). If you suffer from a number of ailments (now including shingles), I sincerely hope you feel better/get better/find what you are after; there are many out there that 'pretend at being the victim' for attention, which is a shame as I feel the 'I'm a victim culture' takes away focus, and to an extent belittles the problems faced by individuals like yourself.

To all that are dealing with things that seem overwhelming, I wish you the best and hope you are able to manage, or overcome, those things that challenge you. <O

It’s ok. Not everyone has to post or even agree with me on anything. Or like me. That’s fine. I post to reach out. A lot of people do.

Although I did not expect the type of content in your post on a gaming forum, there is absolutely nothing wrong in you making that post sir; a forum is for discussion.

In fact, I think the positive responses you have had from some members of the community, reflects what you indicated - the community is a positive one.

Although you have not said anything that I think would make people 'not like you', you are wise to understand that when posting on a forum, people may not always reply, or even agree with you.

That doesn't mean (or should ever mean), that everyone shouldn't be met with a general level of respect.

I am not sure if there is a section for new Cmdrs or those that are looking to team up, but if there is, it may also help to post there too.

I wish you well <0

I just wanted to reach out for friends and be open. To express myself and let it out. Hoping for some friends to fly with and I wanted to thank this community. That’s why I posted. To thank the community. The I just was hoping for some fly buddies.
I’m not sure how I feel about groups. I kind of prefer solo with someone. Not sure how that fits in with groups. It doesn’t sound like it would.
I’m looking for my mic soon. I hope to. Been trying to rest a lot and have been way tired.

Sorry.
