Sounds interesting! Although it seems a bit odd you do a ground thing for a ship thing.
Going to check them out in anticipation.

Yeah. Good old Thingyface.
That's the one. Thingy McChickface. 8-oYou mean Domino Green?
Take your anti-sarcasm hat with you
Though I have to say I'm not interested in ground missions at all beyond simple blast-em-up CZ's so I'm not sure what use an engineer would even be to me.
I was very rusty at first and had to take photos of the binding screen, but I increased my score over three runs and moved up a tier each time. We always seemed to come from behind and win late.
Nice, i will come back from exile to defend my empress.
I hope being level 5 notorious is not a hindrance.
Well, the ground engi's can help with suits and guns. For me, I just had to get all the advantages I could just to survive - I'm no twitch happy nightmare mode loon *
I suppose, if it's literally just the bang bang of GCZs you're after, you only really need a Dominator suit.
What threat level do you normally take on?
* who likes highs in an unmodded Arty, refuses shields and only uses a G1 P-15

I hadn't even thought to check since I just picked the closest planet to Bakewell to avoid long flights. I ended up at Ricci's Installation which is a threat level 3. Though I notice there's some level 2's on that moon.Well, the ground engi's can help with suits and guns.

And I do have the Dominator suit. I was also considering changing my loadout when I was off last night. Particularly when it comes to the Opressor rifle. It gets a bit irritating having to plan your shots three hours in advance and hoping the enemy walk right into them.
I've been knocked out of the top 25% anyway so I better get back in and experiment some more.
Will you have time to take part in the CG?
I'm sure I'll get some shooty time in in a few days. Not enough to rank in the CG but that's not all that important to me: I just enjoy the way they've implemented this FPS part of the game.I hadn't even thought to check since I just picked the closest planet to Bakewell to avoid long flights.

You just need one contribution to qualify for the minimum prize, of course more would help to get lots of credits and maybe merits.
Just take about 10 hours in the game to get there and that notoriety will be history.
I'm not sure why I didn't try open earlier. It felt easier with other players around. The match didn't feel close at any point.
I also swapped in the Executioner for the crappy Oppressor and completely got rid of the Intimidator. I'm not sure why those weapons are so weak by comparision. A pistol shouldn't be way more powerful than a shotgun.
And it was actually Hero ferrari who I unlocked for finally completing 10 GCZ's. Though there's no chance I'll be grinding for settlement defence plans. It's just a shame you can't seem to scrounge for loot in CZ's.

I would've thought you could catch up quite quickly given how often you've played the ground stuff. It's not like you have to worry about dying in the CZ. Just kamikaze people for bonds.

Are there Ground CZ's related to the CG? In the mood for a bit of pewpew this weekend (well, as usual), but more up for on foot stuff tbh :]
I've recently changed from Aphelion/AR-50 to Zenith/AR-50. The pistol, in its current engineered state, is more effective in shield stripping than the Aphelion.
You can see all those plateaus below me where Fungoida Gelata and concha live, I like to switch back and forth between analysis and combat mode to spot terrain conducive to each species of bio.
The pickings are very slim at Bakewell so I might head back to Shinrarta to see if they have a better selection of weapons. Though I realised I needed to add the Oppressor back in as second primary because you need a spam weapon to pick up more bounties. The reload is so horrifically slow on the one-shots that you may only get one or two digs in before players wipe out a whole squad.
Those two CZ'z were buggy though and seemed to last for infinity. I had to logout of the second one. Though I ended up with more bounties in one match (£36m) than in the others combined.
The planet nextdoor to Bakewell with the medium and high CZ's also has three bio signs.
I'm just returned from 10 days in the sunny south of Spain. Looking forward to getting back to black.
Are they still asleep?
Where's Apone?
"All right, sweethearts, what are you waiting for? Breakfast in bed?
Another glorious day in the Corps! A day in the Marine Corps is like a day on the farm. Every meal's a banquet! Every paycheck a fortune! Every formation a parade! I love the Corps!"
Somebody wake up Hicks
Hi All
Nothing much to report, I'm building a planet surface port (large landing pad)* in Hip 90024, so I'll be hauling stuff for the next several days, (Or until I get stressed out with haulin').
Finally named the Coriolis station in that system (Wild Deer Corporation Headquarters)...At the moment it's called 'Great Stop' (game generated)...so I think sometime next week it will change over to the custom one I chose. (Least I hope so!).
Gradually moving my stuff from a station I've used for the best part of 8 years!, selling off some ships and modules periodically as I move out.. This named station above will be my main 'Base' from now on and I will be concentrating any future builds there.
*(Planetary construction site Chawla Terminus which I'll name change to a custom one once it's built)).
Ah!...btw just a question...does anybody know the max number of Modules one can store at a single station?
