2.2 Thoughts

I looked a bit for this IFC in a couple of stations but there was none. Any particular place these guys are? I have a few million cr in bounties that are filling up my transaction screen

The one I found is on Lovedui / Lovedui 2a / Gaspar De Lemos Relay. That's a planetary base, 0.11G. It was the first low security system I went into that had life. I assumed all low sec places with stations have this now. In the starport services it was in the same menu listing as the normal authority contact is, the one who only pays local bounties.

After that I found that "Interstellar factors contact" who is willing to pay up. But the bastard takes a 25% cut for himself. And also kindly notified that I have 731,008 cr worth of legacy fines. Though with a +25% fee again.

Is there another way to get rid of legacy fines? A cheaper way like suisidewinder.

Yep, use the IFC to find all the factions, then goto the system and have the police scan you. Then it will activate the legacy fine and they will kill you and on the rebuy screen you will see the fine there and it will be cleared when you rebuy. Rinse and repeat for all the places you have fines.

Will it be cheaper? Depends. You will have to rebuy the Sidewinder for each system and take all the time to go to all the systems. How much is your time worth? Mine is worth a hell of a lot more than 25%.

They take that even for cashing in bounties. I am not gonna fly 250K ls to cash in that 400 credits, so this is worth it. Am I gonna fly all the way to all these systems to pay off my fines? Nope. You have to decide if it is worth the risk to not pay them (400 credit bad flying fine at Jaques? Nah, no idea when or if I will be back). So its all up to you.

I did some googling and from the results I understood that legacy fines won't get you shot even if you are scanned. Dormant bounties however will activate when scanned. But with those legacy fines I had, I was a good boy and went to the home station of the faction, and just paid them from the contacts menu on the station. Saved that 25%, which was worth the trip in my case. Of course it was not an insane amount of money as I even made profit on that trip in the end by having the ship full of commodities on both ways of the trip. No fines left on my papers now.

Weapon overheating issues appear to be sorted.

Nice to have more time to do massacre missions (less dash and death more finesse n fry)

E:D 2.2 Appears to be a smoother Release overall. Good job.

My first impressions, and I mean I've literally played 15 mins are:

• I love the new hyperjump animation
• Station interiors are nice
• Not so keen on the new station interface layout. For example, I used the refuel 10% quite often now its in a sub menu and I dont see why livery is just sat there on its own. These are just minor things I'll get used to though.
• I dont really see the need for the alert informing you of the security status of the target system. But I'm guessing it was requested for so maybe some play styles (powerplay or something), need it? I certainly have never bothered about going to any system.
• Mission board etc seem much more responsive (for now)

Thats about as far as I've got so far!
