Greetings, Team:
Pleasure to be here. Gamer going all the way back, always more into PVE than PVP, especially Co-op, couch or otherwise. Prefer to play with folks I know than complete strangers and not into the die respawn mechanic of so many multi-player games today.
Played Elite on the C64 and Elite Frontiers on the PC. When I came back to Elite in 2017 after playing Core in 2016 and decided to get Horizons I tried out the CG dynamic and started encountering more CMDRs. First couple of time I got interdicted for no reason I found it amusing. Then, after being teamed up on in HAZ RES or long trips to stations I wondered if I had time for the loss of the rares I was bringing in to the CG station or the NPC pilot I was training up on my on-board fighter.
Rather than SOLO or combat logging, etc. I researched an alternative via Reddit and YouTube and found the Mobius community.
Don't know how many players are active on XBOX but happy to see you out there, CMDRs.
