Greetings Commanders!

Postby Duke Duvel » Sat Jul 08, 2017 10:11 am

The Duke's in and ready to kick some alien ***! :twisted:

Yup, my ingame name is derived from Duke Nukem and a special brand of drink (see avatar :) ).

Been gaming for some odd 35 years now, including Elite on the C64, Frontier and First Encounters. Took away a lot of my time... but worth it... so worth it.

Finally gave in to the temption and bought the new game on the steam sale (along with horizons). I am still overwhelmed by the sheer scope of the game as well as the graphics. I don't care that much for graphics, but seeing the first white dwarf with two pulsar like arms was a sight to behold :)

Love the game, getting into it pretty easily somehow, no death yet, about 1 mil now and upgrading my sidey left and right. I am not much of a PVP'er, I like to build and play together. I did tick the option to join Factions, but if it's ok I will galavant across the universe like a lost Q for now :D

See you out there Commanders!

Greetings and welcome to Mobius, Commander Duke Duvel.

If you run across Q on your adventure, tell him I said Hi. :)

The learning curve in E-D is pretty darn steep, so be sure to ask a lot of questions. We're here to help! :)

Feel free to add your name to one of our 'In game friends lists'

In game friends list for PC
Xbox EU and Xbox US as well as PS4


and check out our TeamSpeak servers or Discord (voice and text chat) servers to easily chat with, and possibly wing up with other commanders.

Also, make sure to check the Policy page if you haven't already Image.

On top of all of that, we also have a Facebook group and Twitter feed.

There is a lot of great info on the message board, and we have compiled a long list of Tips and Tricks to help new players acclimatize to the game while having fun.

Finally, if you are interested in being involved, go here to see information about our player group faction, the Order of Mobius (based at Rafferty's Mobius station in the Azrael system). We have our own Order of Mobius Twitter feed.

Thank you :)

I saw your name popup John Luke (Pick an Art?). As a diehard trekkie (and the question kirk vs picard doesn't even deserve an answer in my case) I can appreciate the name, laugh literally out loud when I saw it :).
So thanks for all the info Mon Capitain, I have asked some things on the Elite forums already. Cruising steadily to my Cobra (if anything for nostalgic reasons :) ). Though I upgraded my sidey on all fronts now and I really like it.

Combats still kinda tough, been killstealing a bit around RES and beacons, halfway through harmless now. Do I get more points when I kill something solo?

Anyway, great idea this! Thanks for the welcome.

Nope. By all means.... let the cops do most of the heavy lifting until you're in a bigger ship. ;) The only way you'll get more money per bounty is by installing and using a Kill Warrant Scanner. That will dig up bounties that the pirate in question has with other factions. The bigger the fish, the more different a KWS can make. I've seen the bounty of a highly ranked Conda go up $150k or more by using a KWS.
