working for the man, picking up my wages

...i noticed that there's now some well buffed pirate kill missions for the lower ranks, i got one Expert level one for 1 million - and a Dangerous level one for 40(!) pirates worth 2 million, allowing almost 3 weeks to complete it.

this little bundle in the pic is worth just over 5 mil, not bad for a cmdr who's only ranked Dangerous.

What did he do to deserve that? Did he crash your car?

I spent last night doing pirate sweeps for the Order and it was nice to see other human players about for a change. Having a common base certainly makes it more of a social game.

Not yet - he's only 16. Plus, my wife is the one who crashes the car, so when it happens, it would be a bit hypocritical to react too harshly.

I got him E:D for Christmas last year and he couldn't cope with how complex it is. I used his login for the Sidewinder Race when we hit 10,000 members (CMDR PurplePhury) but it's been dormant otherwise. Clearing the save had no drawbacks and a couple of benefits.

I think he might consider a return - he's asked me not to do anything that I want to "keep", so he can clear it again if ever he restarts.

I have to admit, it's been fun being back in a sidey...

wow! Bacon City is busy, lots of CMDRs there for the CG.

just bought an Assault Ship to give it a try, and see what all the fuss is about.
got Siren the 'conda on standby just in case it's a dud.

Exploring again, the bar says I'm 75% of the way to Elite. I'm well aware of the problems they've been having, but they say they are on top of them now and I won't have lost more than half a dozen systems if the worst has happened. Manage to find some unexplored stuff still within the area where you find signal sources, so I guess not too many people have been off in this direction.

Slowly getting used to my new setup RL wise and realising with a little time it's just getting better and better ;)

In game running missions for the first time again since 1.3 dropped for the order, alternating between Donna and my courier 'white lightning', still haven't found an imperial eagle though..

Rule 1: Pillage. Then burn.
Rule 2: No such thing as overkill, as long as there are reloads.

What I have found from 1.4...


Extreme res sites are awsome

Ai is different - some ships just rotate when shot. One parked on an asteroid.

Interdiction is now really hard.

More enemy ships all over from different factions.

I nearly lost my ship cooking about with flight assist off when docking.

Don't fly in dark res sites. Lost a Vulture like that.

More to follow after tonight's outing.
