    Piracy in 3.6.2

    I see what you mean. That's a good question. I think there may be a couple of elements to this. First, that's where the rankings can be used - the "stars" we currently have against beacons. Also, you may choose who to give the bounty contract to. Currently it's whoever accepts the contract...

    Piracy in 3.6.2

    Absence of CrimeStat, I suppose. That is, you can't put a bounty on someone, unless they have a CrimeStat. If you are a good citizen - nothing to be afraid of. If you make 50k-60k from multiple millions, let's say 10 mil, then your margin is 0.5%-0.6%, that's just not a very good business...

    Piracy in 3.6.2

    Thanks. I can try defining this point as... when the probability of a gang bang by the whole server converges on dead sure.

    Piracy in 3.6.2

    I think that's probably it. While we are in alpha, players don't care about security much, things like escorts for instance. Some mechanics are not in place, bugs are here and there, and so on. When you run a million UEC worth of cargo, it's probably not unwise to spend 20k or so on escort and...

    Exploration - New Planet Found

    And more precisely, do they taste differently from dingle-berries?

    Exploration - New Planet Found

    A very interesting question... Looking at the list, I think I like - Bes, Egyptian god, protector of the home, and patron of beer brewers. Also, according to the wiki, Bes is also regarded as the defender of everything good and the enemy of all that is bad. Practically speaking, we know that...

    Piracy in 3.6.2

    Nice one. What if they just log out? Or what would happen if they log back in, but into a different server?

    Exploration - New Planet Found

    I was surprised too when I saw this purple planet. I've got other screenshots too 🍻 I think not announcing new areas was the original idea. 30% of space would be known, and the rest is to be discovered by the players. Imagine stumbling across something like this, spending a week exploring and...

    Exploration - New Planet Found

    Hi All, I've been exploring the Stanton system today and found a new planet, which hasn't been marked on the map. This planet has a very interesting atmosphere colour. My Aquila scanning station suggested that the atmosphere has a high concentration of blueberry beer vapours, which are rising...

    Piracy in 3.6.2

    I've been reading a lengthy and somewhat heated discussion in global chat today, while doing some bounties and just wandering around (maybe other TESTies also have been reading it). The short version is that someone has been grinding trade and when they have been running a large cargo load...

    Making credits

    To quickly raise aUEC after a wipe - a mix of bounty hunting (6k and 7k missions) and skimmers. Bounty hunting 8k missions and player bounties take more time and risk, and you can do 2 smaller missions with greater payoff and less risk in the same amount of time. On average takes only a couple...

    RSI Mantis Thread - Tuesday update posted - New Pics and Article inside, Page 10

    Maybe RSI will even fix the Ursa Rover falling through the Constellation cargo bay floor. 🤣

    Delivery missions time out

    Yes, I was collecting the parcels from a couple of locations. Not sure a timer even existed. It could also possibly be that the same mission is generated every hour and this cancels the existing mission, but ideally I don't think there should be a short timer on these.

    Delivery missions time out

    Hi All, I was TESTing the delivery missions. This time the idea was to use a Constellation Aquila and to get many parcels from around Port Olisar (Yela, Ceilin, that kind of area) and then deliver them all to Lorville (mostly Gate 1, Gate 2). The strategy is that: There is no explicit timer...

    What’s the BEST Multi-Role Ship?

    The Aurora, of cause, is the best ship. 🍻 That said, it's also important to underline that we are talking about the best ship already in game, as surely there will be more ships and more upgrades. Also, we need to mention that a multi role may mean different things for different people. At...

    Labor Day Weekend

    OK, setting the great, mighty, and awesome Aurora aside, what can we come up with. First, let's get the setting clear, but at the same time let's try to keep things simple. Given: 12 Players, require beds 48 NPCs, may or may not require beds Scope: Find an unknown world. When found...
