Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

[Tyres O'Flaherty]

I'm seeing NPC's defending minor crash sites, IM threat 0, 1 and 2...

It's making Push hard to find!

Blimmin' eck. Another IM threat 1 and this time there's already 4 NPC's there who attack straight away. Is this how it is now? Alpha was a different beast.

Info:

I have had a reply from Support regarding suit packs.

As I mentioned a couple of days ago, I bought the "Wanderer" suit pack but can't see it available in loadouts. They are aware of this issue: it's a bug under investigations. Per their advisement, I'll be raising a ticket.

Just FYI.

This is such a joke - they cannot even do that right?- seriously.

Going to Irregular markers in between combat. Near by there was this surface object seen on the srv scanner.

I really like this new surface features mining.

Errmmm .... That is how you obtain raw materials by surface prospecting in Horizons. What exactly are you finding as "new"?

 

[algwat]

Gidday Mr Handy, I never saw a meteorite on the ground in Horizons.
Are they there? This gives several raw mat types, about 5. quite good.
All they need now are proper comets to scan and I'll be very happy.

I guess the new thing is he did it on foot.
Now the question is - can you pick the chunks up, or do you have to return with an SRV to scoop it up.

Had to use the SRV to collect the mats as usual. It was too big for the cargo scoop. So went a had a look and a think about it. Then thought , I have this gun on my back.

Hmmm ... are you just trolling? Did you never actually collect mats in your SRV?

 

[Yingnei Gasua]

Not sure about the number of players required theory. Don't think it is correct.
A long range plasma from behind a rock can take out 6 blueguys, patiently pick your target.
Then can also deal with the next buleguys that drop in. Takes time. It will clear the site. Just don't make them run at you.

After numerous near KOs and many KOs, I decided to use my SRV for taking out the foot NPCs. Once locked on target, the turret does a real fast job of taking out the NPCs.

There are as I am surprised you didn’t know several meteorite types plus outcrops that can be found using the SRV, the usual procedure is to shoot them from the SRV as you approach then target the bits to scoop them up. Later Geo sites were added where rocks and crystals could be easily found and shot.
I was unsurprised to find they were in Odyssey as well though the fact we could shoot them on foot was a bit of a surprise.

Well no not trolling. And yes used the SRV as in horizons.
They meteorite was new for me. I tried to arc cut it, exo scan it. Nothing left but shoot it....
I could have shot first from the SRV, thinking it was more an odyssey interactive object.

No, never found any meteorite or rock related mat sites in my travels. Lots of geos on many planets. Happy to be surprised by new things.

I guess you don't know how to use the SRV turret? It's pretty easy to take out NPCs in an open area like that with it. Just stay back, don't let them get too close. The SRV has much superior range, and you're faster than them so you can control the distance.

Anyway, yeah, that's kinda how those sites are. Plus more NPCs can drop in while you're there. Keep the SRV close by

 

[bangermsuk]

has codger says keep srv close by.i did a crash site once left the srv and walked up to it.there i saw 3 npcs, dispatched them and a ship came along with a load more npcs. the ers let me have it with grenade spam. and it was a long walk back from hospital ship.(taxi around 3 jumps) and trying to get back to ship was a nightmare.has it still locked to the current one

2nd note i got my guardian blueprint.

Sites would be an exaggeration, occasionally you would find two or three within targeting range of each other mostly it was just individuals found by using the SRV scanner.

 

[bangermsuk]

is there a high selling place for codex discoveries redeeming.

No, you get the same amount no matter where you sell.

 

[Tyres O'Flaherty]

Found an IM threat 3. Noone there. Looted to my hearts content. As I docked back with the ship, I got scanned by an incoming vessel. I was quick to leave. It seems really odd how these threat levels pan out.

Still, I have all the Push I need.

On another note, there might need some tweaks done to availability of exobiological material. The one pictured below took nearly an hour to find three spots and half draIned my SRV fuel in the process. They ought to make the diversity range a little closer.

Oh, I tried the turret once. Couldn't hit the blighters. Probably just a bad aim!

The meteorite outcrops seem to be new to Odyssey - or, at least, I've not encounterd them in Horizons which is entirely possible - and they seem to yield higher grade raws than yer typical bronzite and mesosoderite...
