What are you doing (ingame) now?

[Jockgit64]

Alright Squire!! or should I say Squire Jockgit.

Now working to get my knighthood

It also looks like it is going to kick off in the Cemeiss system, Civil War has broken out with the Imperial Faction and The Jets, if you are looking for a conflict zone to fight the good fight, for the glorius Empire, then I recommend heading out that way.

Cool, it's only a couple of jumps from where I am. Thanks for the heads-up, mate!

[Jockgit64]

You may now call me Sir Jockgit, Knight of the Glorius Achenar Empire.

Well done, Sir!

Now I'm a Baron, but since it only took moving two tons of food (or whatever) to the next system, it really didn't feel like an achievement!.

They really need to improve that, IMO. I think it should take days and involve lots of kills or difficult missions to get up the ranks. And it should get harder and harder. At the moment, it seems to be the very opposite.

I've been mainly bounty hunting at a Nav Beacon in some far flung corner in Empire space.

I plan on looking for a low population independent system with Empire presence and attempt to increase Empire influence.

I'm an allied Lord with the Empire. Long Live The Empire!

I'm in Summerland now doing some work for the Empire, Still a Lord but getting some nice rep. The ranking missions are a huge disappointment to be honest. To get promoted simply for transporting a few tonnes of stuff here or there is poor. Frontier should have held back on the military stuff until they had some decent missions sorted out. The only good one I've done so far was to assassinate a General who had clearly ticked someone off. Other than that it's either fetch and give or delivery missions. A bit of a let down to be honest. I'd hoped for hits on Federation scum types or go to a system and scan it to see what the stinking Feds are up to. So far it has all been pretty lame in my opinion.

I agree. Where are the missions that involve spying on other planets, espionage and subterfuge. I hope they revamp this area when they they implement planetary landings etc, as this area is severely lacking in the creativity department.

Not to mention that ranking in a faction should involve displeasing another. At the moment it seems that you can get up the ranks in all the faction at the same time, which unless you're a double (or triple) agent shouldn't be possible. It all feels like another set of placeholders, to be honest. But if that was good during betas when we expected wipes, it's definitely very bad now.

Crying. Just accidentally pressed the `thrusters` button while inside a station. Blew my Type-6 against the side of the wall near the exit, carrying over 400,000 credits worth of cargo. For me thats like, nearly two weeks worth of gaming.

Waaaaaa :
