What Exactly Is Coming

[BigPickle]

Hey all, wanted to get it in thread of what exactly is known to coming into the game when we merge with standard beta players, I've heard there will be a big'ish content up date and a money/points reset but ive heard no solid info.

Can anyone shed some light on this, would be good to have something to look forward to.

55systems it would seem, or at least that many. though i think that is all we'll have.

Also in beta (not specific which build) is coming (according to devs):
* Pather Clipper
* Imperial Cruiser
* Damage model for Anaconda (not sure about other ships)
* Pilot federation bounties (Beta 2 I think)

Michael caption says otherwise - he said those are "some of systems we will have in Beta 1".

Did you count just the ones with the little yellow crescent marker?

i checked the distance of systems which the name appeared on the peek, they seem to all be within 20LY(Chara and Avicis are further away than 20LY and dont have the yellow arc).
i looked on the galactic map for every missing star within 20 LY, i found 55 in total(including the old ones and named ones). i checked back if the peek had more stars, it didnt, it has 55, i actually found the 2 last ones at that moment, i had 53 prior to that.
when he said some, i also see that only some have names appearing on the peek.
so "some" may be all named systems, and the totallity could be the 55 systems.

But as i said : "at least 55". i cant be sure if that's it, of course.

So it should be quite a fair bit of content in reality. The most important thing for me is the ability to tell friends form everyone else, so im really hoping there will be some kind of visual buddy system after adding them as a friend in game.

Any thoughts about that?

On system names:

A: Aren't you that girl I met in BD+47 2112?

B: No, you confusing me with that girl from BD+47 2113. Happens all the time.

A: My bad.


Still, can't wait for everything on the Standard Beta list
