Newcomer / Intro What are you up to?

Awww man. Look who I just had to kill:

In a fully engineered Corvette?

No. Not even a little bit. It's stupid that I still face such weak enemies. That's why the grind for rank takes forever.
And that's why I don't fly fully engineered ships...not enough of a challenge...the rank progression will come with time anyway...

I mean, I'm sure i'll get there eventually, if I need to or if I plan to fly in Open meaningfully, for which I'm already thinking about an FDL build...
 
It'll hopefully be interesting to see where it goes...if the bubble burns and humanity has to use the Colonia Bridge to escape the wrath of the Thargoids, I'll be thrilled...ecstatic even...

As to the state of 22460, its difficult, fun, challenging gameplay that you can't just cake walk through...not that I've played since U13 release day though, out of commission for a while...my in game doctors have grounded me temporarily...
 
I'm about a zillion pages behind. What did people think of the new update? I'm still just observing from afar but I wondered what you guys thought.
Well, it's something new happening, that's a good thing.

I'm not much for Thargoid combat, so the current situation in HIP 22460 doesn't float my boat. I was there for the big event. Saw the megaship burning. Saw some aliens. They attacked my little DBX. Ran away. Looked around for a while. Eventually they caught me and destroyed my ship, and I wound up for some reason 400LY away at a station I have not visited in years.

So that was it for me. Now I'm just going to continue exploring and doing exobiology, and watch what happens.

Maybe some part of it will interest me and be fun.

I left the game not long after Odyssey released and at that point it was really awful, not fun at all. I just got back into it a few weeks ago (before the latest update) and found that it was hugely improved. I have a 8GB GTX1070 and whereas before I was lucky to see 25 fps on a concourse or in a settlement, it had improved to upper 50's at the worst but that only transitory - otherwise and everywhere else was smooth and at my v-sync of 60 (I run at 2560 x 1440 set to Ultra - nothing tweaked).

I have only had a few sessions since the latest update (13) and have not noticed any great difference performance-wise.

The last two updates have weakened the economy by roughly 23% across the board.

Metals and minerals are all selling for less, missions of all types are paying less.

Other than that and the constant new bugs in the nav map, I've noticed no difference at all.
