I got stuck inside a compound when a gate slammed shut behind me. I tried boosting out my jumping on cargo containers and then over the wall but gave up after a while and just suicided. There was a data point inside the compound that may have let me out, but I couldn't figure out how to interface with it. Glad it happened in beta and hope they have some other solution on release.
It's time to give this another go.

Still having masses of pew-pew fun with the CompNavBeacon in Coastakal :D

- I did do a couple of trips to the CZs, just for variety, but feel that the CNB is actually more challenging as there are more Elite & Deadly oppos there, often winged-up. Quite profitable too, I'm usually upwards of a mill by the time I have to re-arm.

Reckon I'll stay around here until I hit Dangerous (20% to go), by then I should have enuff dosh to get a space-cow (110m cr, pimped) without having to sell Monty & go after the next trade rank (Tycoon) with a view to being able to afford a cargo-cutter (~300m cr) one day.

BUT it would be uber-kewl if FD fixed the BGS enuff to make it worthwhile to devote time to OoM business again. I'm feeling SO let down that we basically can't do anything useful to expand the faction atm :(

... and no, I don't really give a damn about landing on barren rocks & buggering about in a dune-buggy.

I gave the CNB a try this morning. Not bad, not bad at all. Thanks for the tip. The spawn wasn't quite as profitable for me as a Haz-res, but no obstacles (rocks), either. ;) I'll be in the area the next few days if you want to wing up. :)

Arh I was looking for the name of the system today to visit. But could not for the life of me remember where I had seen it. I found a Compromised Nav Beacon out in Aerial which is very close to Azrael as well.

I'll be going back there around 21:00 GMT, just have to give the pup his evening empty.

It would be kewl to have a buddy, just to go after the nastier wings - normally I have to wait until other NPCs have softened them up a bit.

If I see you, I'll give you a shout :D

Flying around Azrael trying to finish a pirate hunting mission and maybe make the order trust me finally. Also working to get Voice attack running right for me.

Thanks Flip for the help finding the reboot/repair button, saved my skin, and my wallet.

Well that was something......

Took me ages to work out what was going on......

Could not find the generator and the mapping/targeting/contacts etc was shite...

I can put a vid up if you want...But it's not pretty......And mega long....

Finally worked out you had to scan 2/3 data points in a time limit to disable them.......THEN you got the generator location....

So I blew the shite outta that and returned to my ship......

Stopped for a selfie(ish)......

Interesting and mission expanding as this is........I'd still rather kill a pirate.......Make more money too.....

But it's early stages yet......

Now with that done......Gonna see how the ship goes in combat......Not had a fight yet......

:D

*Edit*

I think I will put the vid up tomorrow sometime......

As crap as it is....It might help someone to learn from my mistakes......

But obviously will contain spoilers for the peeps not in Beta......
