Engineers The dreaded engineers commodity

Engineering commodities :mad:

Commodities from far and wide with added mission only commodities are seriously frustrating me trying to engineer specific ships. Not only are some relatively or extraordinarily rare on the mission lists but upon collecting them have to hold on for dear life in a ship with a big cargo. Want to move to your FDL..... our survey says X. No cargo space sell your hard earned commodities[smile].

Isn't all the messing about getting access to the engineers then driving around moons and sites looking for those very rare materials and data enough grind? Please FD for the love of God, Satan and Jebus give your loyal fan base a break.

Holding onto cargo long enough to find 5 interdictions ago an NPC cargo limpted all your hard earned commodities.......after arriving at your engineer finally[mad].

Hey they sell those in system X how far is it.......280LY from here then 200LY to the engineer then 300LY back to my mission system mmmm don't have 5 hours to spare to upgrade a heat sink.

Finally, when you manage to get all your stuff together and reach the engineer for your G5 upgrades Mr RNG :O ACCESS DENIED. [haha]

I am exaggerating a little for comic value, but without a means to store said commodities for future use it makes ED fun time into what amounts to legal torture.

Engineer NEWS.

Hera Tani has successfully terraformed the moon she is on with cigar smoke and Lei Cheung just built a fleet of solid gold type 9's. Didi Vatermann is in rehab after drinking none stop since she opened her engineering services and hasn't made a dent in her 50 billion bottles (and growing) of brandy. Lori Jameson's husband filed divorce proceedings after suffering 2 months of constant Kongga Ale farts.

I am pretty sure this is a common complaint and sorry in advance for thread repetition.
 
I just wish there was some galactic repository of knowledge that we could access which would tell us what we need and what would give us a reasonable chance of getting it. I dont mind a bit of grind but would like to know that i am grinding in the right place

There is, CMDR. Right in these forums. See here.

How about including information needed to play the game IN the game. I shouldn't have to scour the bloody forums for what should be in-game. Not every player visits the forums or reddit. The game obfuscates way too much common-sense information in the attempt to provide depth. It only manages to deliver frustration.

This is hilarious! +Rep for you!

Just goes to show you how ridiculous some of these Engineer's requirements are.

I got to thinking this morning that this game has just turned into a game where everyone is on a quest (Engineer materials) to find something then when you find it you find that you just have to go find something else, it is a never ending quest.
