What are you doing (ingame) now?

[Schmobius]

Did 24 jumps to get shield lady's relics then 40 jumps back to her home base in the corvette, got my first shield reinforcement mod.

I thought the relics were bugged? Where do we get them?

Also, how is the shield working out? Worth the upgrade?

As I have said in previous posts........ <snip>

Now try it sober and report what happens.

Seriously though, I'll finally get a chance to try this for real on Sunday - testing out a new joystick, too.

[DroppDreadd]

Finally, after 12 hours downloading, got to play the update!

notes so far:
-the graphics looks great, time to find some engineers now!
-the traffic controllers on stations are really cool.
-THE AI, and speaking of that:
-almost got trashed by an asp scout... on my usual slave shuttle service to glass city.
get interdicted, submit, following 10 secs of the spin cycle anyway.
i see a asp scout, he wants everything i have, i chaff and boost away,
just exactly 2 beam fires later my 3a shield is out, following shots bring my hull to 70% before i can hi-wake out of there....

Also, Anyone else getting graphic hiccups sometimes after the patch? Got to Rafferty's mobius station, the interior of the station was blindly white, logging of and on again fixed it though.

The graphic hiccups inside Rafferty's were around before 2.1 already, see here.

As I have said in previous posts........

Elite just got dangerous.....

Although even playing in beta it wasn't THIS dangerous.....

I'm taking hideous amounts of damage....Shields are stripped in no time and hull and modules are getting fucked rather quickly.....

Two " seasoned " pilots should be able to take down a master adder......Nope........

Dawg died....I escaped with 6% hull......In my fecking Asp.........

I used everything I know on the fucker.........I could not get an AOA on him.......He stuck to my arse like glue.....

Always behind me.......

Now for us who have been playing a while it's a ramp up........

Maybe as I'm finding out an unfair one......Their weapons seem to deal so much more damage.......

But for anyone new to the game......Jesus........Yet again the learning curve just got steeper.....



Other than that the A-Team winged up and went searching for materials that we wanted......

And we laughed.........We always laugh........

Oh and Lori gave us all a meta alloy.....So we could go see Fliss.......

But combat has become a *Bitch*......

Well done to the pilots that got Elite in combat before.....

Because those not there yet are going to have a rough and rocky road to travel......

As always still loving it.......

Might be time to think about retiring TEH BAST, or at least getting something else as well for combat? Not sure I'd be confident taking an Asp into combat now, but then I don't have your experience with it.

I had to watch my gifted meta alloy go from 90% to zero in a couple of seconds before I could even get close to it (Dear FD...) I owe Lorri something rare and hard to find.

The controlling faction in Wyrd is the Alliance of BD+47 2112, so you will probably be hunted in both systems. Unfortunately, neither Wyrd nor BD+47 2112 have a space outpost where you can pay off the fine easily. The days of "your presence will not be tolerated, enemy: Docking permissions granted" are over

Well that's not great then, might has to be a suicidewinder

[Dudley]

Quick one for you...
We're in a wing..
I get interdicted.. NPC doesn't start shooting.. Lori jumps in (Thanks Lori), NPC opens up on Lori instead of me..?

Within seconds Lori has no shields and is taking damage to his hull - but between us we manage to stomp the NPC.

What are these NPC's packing now...?

See Kharmas previous post.. NPC's are really upset about something.. I wonder what it is..?

Marvellous..

[Cometborne]

Try the Morgor system, station Romanek's Folly. Has a presence of the Alliance of BD+47 2112, but is controlled by another faction.

Cheranovsky city station in Ngurii system.

I guess anything that makes them last longer is worth it.

Switched out the 4 small pulse turrets for multicannons to save some power.

Thanks.

But something very worrying happened just now, I'm in TZ ARIETIS some 50lys away from WYRD, BD+47 2112 are obviously not in the system and I'm not wanted, but I get interdicted by a deadly Python with the message "That bounty makes you today's lunch money", before it fires on me the Python shows as clean.

Despite being in an FDL I can't get behind it and I barely make it out of the system.

Can we conclude from this that having a bounty in another system makes you a target for bounty hunters now? Worrying times people, worrying times!
