Thargoid CG's - Time To Get Involved

The level of engagement with the Thargoid CG's is no more than usual, which is really surprising.

If you want defensive and offensive weapons to fight Thargoid on arrival, every player needs to get into the CG's and drive them to completion. It's also a great way of making a few million credits for relatively little work.

Anyone who does not participate has no right to moan or complain when they do get blown up because they had no way to stop them.

it's not about unlocking the weapons, it's about which stations will sell the weapons (at the moment both from the trailer, rockets and anti-emp(?)).

I had some interesting run-ins with commanders trying to kill me in Eurybia. You'd think humanity would be on board with developing new weapons to fight the Thargoids, but I guess not. ;)

I even offered one nice commander some of the explosives I was carrying after I got interdicted. I was politely informed that my attacker had no cargo racks and I had to high wake. lol.

2.4 seems to be mostly combat content with not much for non-combat players (barring any surprises), so yeah my will to play really hasn't been rekindled. Helping out a CG to unlock yet more weapons and such feels so tired by now, Elite's just too focused on combat and it really doesn't interest me. I am happy for all of the combat players and I hope you all enjoy the snot out of 2.4, but I've yet to see anything that would excite a player like me?


Now, if there was a CG to unlock a new discovery scanner which would grant us heatmaps for planet surfaces revealing POI's and search zones for things to discover, you can bet my mortgage I'd be playing every waking moment I could spare to help out the cause! But yet more weapons to shoot at yet more things in the game? Not so much.

I have indeed managed to ship quite a few 100's of tons of explosives to Eurybia, in between the most awful release of CL2 2.1.x I've ever experienced and having to issue multiple point releases over the weekend. ;)

CG's aren't particularly enjoyable - repeatedly buy stuff <here> and sell it <there>. If I get the time tonight I'll do more, though.

If I were an explorer I'd want protection against aliens.

Oh wait, I am an explorer and did contribute to the CG. :p

I've done 5000+ tons for the Palin GC to get the scanner. Not really interested in anti Thargoid weapons, so will be delivering 0 tons for Ryder's weapon development.

Eh, anything which adds mass to my ship but isn't directly necessary for exploration is equipment I do not carry. My best defense is a quick getaway by always Brave Sir Robin'ing. Weapons are useless to me while exploring as my data is far too valuable to risk losing in a fight.

I'm 3.5K LY outside the bubble and am pulling 12 hour days at work this week and next. In y'know, my actual life. Will this do?
