Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

Got tired of doing the Robigo run, but on my last one noticed a tourist wanting to go to VY Canis Majoris, which was permit locked last time I was in the area (couple of years ago). Enough to pique my explorer interest and head back to Shinrarta to kit out my DBX, before I head off into the unknown.

That seems odd. There's nothing there apart from the VY Canis Majoris supergiant and a Y-Type dwarf.
 
I've really just been mission spamming around Colonia all week, building up faction rep for better cash/mat rewards. Except for Brian's Thugs, who I'm surprised don't have me listed as hostile at this point. They seem to be at the receiving end of most bounty missions I take, and there are currently four guys I need to mop up in Ratraii. I don't like massacre missions though, and think I'll try and avoid those from now on. It can be a time suck.

It's just easygoing background gameplay for times when you don't have specific goals and maybe don't want to be stuck at a screen all night.

When I think I've done enough and the mood takes me, I'll head out to Sag A. Maybe next week before Odyssey drops.
 
I hear you. I'm just off to Dav's as I just fancy doing the circuit for a while. From there, I think I'll see what Windle Poons can really do now it's fitted out as a proper explorer.
Yep, sometimes I go for a run around Dav's. Don't need to, and it's not efficient.
I just like it. SRV nostalgia maybe? :D

Edit: Oh yeh. Tanya rescued over 10k souls from Lave! Yay! :D (y)
And she's used the earnings to buy a Corvette.
Good grief. Last seen heading to Kumo space.:oops:🤦‍♀️🔥🔥🔥

Found a compomised nav beacon, quite by accident.

Higher ranked enemies to fight which is fine, but they seem tougher than those of the same level in a hazres. Mighty good fun though. Could run out of raw materials in small calibre projectile rearm though :D
 
The Dolphin is ready to explore! 59.33 LYs jump range, which is nice.

An odd thing:

a) I have my callsign set to "ShIp name"
b) The first three letters of my ship name are W, I and N
So why do traffic control say "Whiskey Sierra Zero"?

o_O:unsure::LOL:

I thought traffic control will always use the first 3 letters of your CMDR name? Is there a way to set it?
 
What's your ship's ID?
"Plink"

Yes it can throw up some tough nuts to crack. Good practice, keeps the skills sharp, plus the money is good. I'm at 98% Deadly. Tonight could be the night..!!
