Visited a damaged starport for the first time. Damn.

That was pretty damn awesome.

The atmosphere, the voice acting, the gameplay loop where the emergency ship was pretty close and offering missions related to the emergency situation. There were a dozen other pilots flying around helping those poor souls, I talked to a few of them, it was a truly fun situation and definitely breaks the usual biowaste haulage and Horde mode haz rez shooting, I sincerely loved it.

But it wouldn't be Frontier™ if they didn't mess this up a little.

Well, I was approaching the station, everything was good, for me at least in the safety of my cozy new gorgeous chieftain, when I accidentally hit another ship storming through the mailbox while I was manouvering outside

50 credits fine.
No problem, I'll pay the fine once I touch down, like I always do with the new C&P system.

Anonymous access.
Contacts unavailable.
Passenger mission board completely empty.

I sat there thinking about those poor souls willing to burn by caustic damage instead of hopping on my ship because of a 50 credits fine.


Bulletproof game design, 10/10



Seriously, how do I pay that thing off? I really have to travel 100+ ly to the nearest interstellar factor guy?

As always, great work by the Art and Sound dept. It is the little things that can let it all down. Picture this from a few months back, am in my T-10 dumping heatsinks rescuing escape pods from inside a burning station, ran out of heat sinks but decide to finsih up since I've nearlly rescued everyone, my cargo hatch takes heat damage. The station fines me for littering.. Luckily that was before the new C&P system.


It just takes a little forward thinking, or actually get the internal beta testers to properly test, that way these little things can be avoided.

lol, love it.
 
They should all look like this when there is a faction war and one gets taken over, the wars should be a series of dynamic events that end with an assault on a starport. And yes there should be lots of refugees, and new mission types, as well as big rewards for contributing to the repair of the station.
