Latest CG thingy.
Meta alloys are supposedly in short supply in the Pleiades, so we need to build some stations near the Witch head nebula.
Thargoids have gone to Ibiza for a few weeks.

I took an interesting mission today, something I hadn't tried before. It was an assassination mission, but it was marked as "Biohazard Target". The guy was apparently infected with something nasty, and I was being paid to eliminate him. I guess he refused treatment or whatever.
I tried to track down the guy, but I didn't see a mission target at first. My ship said it was detected, but...nope. I opened the FSS to have a look, and got interdicted. "Military Interdiction" it said.
The mission target was part of the group that interdicted me. They were all Clean in the system, so I became the lawbreaker when I attacked my target.
It was a wing of 3, and my target was in a Corvette, so they were not simple pirates. The local security forces warped in at some point and joined the fight, so I had quite a tussle on my hands for a while. It was a bit more than I expected, but I managed to kill the one guy I needed to kill, and then I jumped on out of there.
I returned to the originating station, where they considered me a hero. Funny to think that in the next system over I was considered a murderer. Did I save thousands of lives by killing that one guy? I guess I'll never really know

Decided to use their absence from the Pleiades as a way of justifying the Thargoid/Human conflict instead and giving the main character a moral dilemma of whether or not to take more meta-alloys and risk further retaliations. We'll see how it goes.
Not on bone so can only give insight into console play;rarely fly big ships,so again not much help;and lastly the combat itch...again,not a skill i've ever felt the need for,or the desire to scratch,similar trade.
On the plus side,I have a little experience of open play,(about a year on pc (32bit) /so technically i still have a core game account on steam/) ,and probably about the same on PS.
And of course the fourth dimension here on the forums.
Rofl.and im'm only halfway through.
Arrived back home at TZ Arietis a couple of days ago. Looked at the mission board and, meh! I'm now about 3,000ly out towards the western rim. Found my first pumpkin patch:
Friendly critters gave me a bunch of yttrium

I hesitate to say this, but yesterday I randomly saw an HGE near me and dropped into it. It had a state of "War" I remember.
Anyway, I found 15 Military Supercapacitors in it. I wasn't looking for them, but hey, I stuck around and mostly filled up on them for later.
RNG is so fun, eh?

That’s just paranoia it’s perfectly normal everything in the galaxy gets it.
I used to think the universe was against me too, preventing me from finding arsenic and selenium. Then I got myself learned and can now spit in the universe's eye*

Orange Mopheed disagrees with own speech?
Have you heard?it's in the stars.Yesterday we aligned with brass.
Well did yu ever what a swell paty this is.
Finally got around to visiting Cacosa
there was a lot of interference
grow forth for a florin,
it was so bad it was screwing with the cache.

I suppose it's just "one of those things" but I often wonder why, sometimes, the game takes a while to load when it usually does so in seconds - I mean, the "warming phase" and "shaders" thing... ah well.
Anyway, a short sojourn at J. crashite and my Adaptive Encrypstions Capture's are back at 100. Next: more missions for cash. Or perhaps more HGE's for funsies. Or do I crank out the 'Conda for some HRES giggles? Oooh, I know! Needle clusters!

I noticed that if the game was opened recently (as in a few hours ago), it would load quickly, while if I haven't played it for a day, it takes a while to load. Probably has something to do with cache.
Took advantage of the kit/paint sale. I'm hoping the new look of the Python makes interdictors think "Look at the state of that! What a third class ticket - no phat l00tz there!" and leave me alone. Pff. Chance'd be a fine thing...
