Re: Preparing for exploration

You'll get NPC pirates outside the bubble, but not that far - probably another 100-150 Ly or so. You don't currently have to go that far to find unexplored systems, especially if you're happy to go for the procedurally generated ones with catalogue numbers instead of names - you'll start finding tho...

Out in the black in a kitted-up Cobra, trying to find bodies that no-one else has got to first...

(Found a lovely undiscovered planet, but they broke the Ctrl-Alt-G oh noes - I hope they fix it soon.)

Re: What is the reward for blowing up trade ships?

I'd sort of assumed (as much as I thought about it at all, which wasn't much) that when you trashed someone's ship, it dropped any cargo it was carrying. Is this not the case?

Re: Thoughts on the ASP

Love the Asp for trading (more cargo than the type 6 and much more manoeuvrable) but it's hard to upgrade - size 5s are hard to find even if you've got the money - and wickedly expensive on repairs.

Re: People online, pnp design fails

I get the feeling they've over-tweaked the instancing to make sure people could get together in open, and this is maybe a knock-on effect. Dunno. Keeping fingers crossed for the next update...
