Explorers beware.Take great care with planetary landings. Like everyone else I was looking forward to Elite Dangerous Horizons since its announcement and handed over the money there and then even though I was nearing the ETA Carina Nebula and therefore unable to purchase the hanger for the moon buggy thingy, I enjoyed flying around a few planet surfaces and landing in creators but today my ship went into free-fall during the glide stage for no reason and I hit the surface which destroyed my ship, taking with it 8 very lonely months worth of exploration data. Nose up, full power failed to stop the free-fall.
I had scanned all worth while systems from SOL to the Soul Nebula, then passing between the Seagull and Rosette Nebula's, then on to the outer edge of the galaxy and finally all the way to ETA Carina Nebula. LOST ALL DATA! Hundreds maybe a thousands of water, terraforming terrestrial, ammonia life based worlds all gone and a handful of outdoor Earth like worlds never to be seen again. : (
I'm more upset about the data than the credits believe it or not. I was on a mission to explore far and beyond. I can't go on, I can't start over. I haven't the will. I now give up with Elite. Its been great. Take care out there guys.
