This is where I recommend adding friends from:

AND THE SUN RISES! - Go Play 3.9 Live
- Thread starter Black Sunder
- Start date
You can now add friends directly from the main menu, however, as far as I can see, the service responsible for handle lookup is already down ; )
And BTW, I can also spawn Prowler if anyone's interested in the test flight.

Since latest build went to public PTU: Prowler and cold suits:

I personally could care less about food or prison, I have my doubts these will be working well for some time to come. I would have traded most of this list for salvage, medical or refuel/repair professions, more A.I. improvements etc.. and a few more ships that have been on the back burner for 5 years. Don't get me wrong, I am glad they got 3.9 out.... finally, but they also removed many items from the past few patches to get it done. I was personally excited about the Idris encounter the most, something to do in the game. But I guess if eating, drinking and a broken prison system is what people care about then ok. :)
I will be very interested to see how CIG ends up this year.
Booooo, no free prowler to play with in PTU :(
Cold effects look amazing! Was standing on a roof in babbage and went to 3rd person. My whole armor was white so I thought missing textures or something. Got back into my ship and the snow gradually melted from my suit and the actual colors started showing again. Very cool!
Didnt have time to go to jail yet

Go to the tallest MT skyscraper's roof on windy day and see what happens to your avatar ; )
However... the wind needs to be tuned a little bit, as strong wind gusts tend to flip parked ships over.
Fly forth you Glorious Bastards! Test the nuts off of it ready for the PU!
They were able to add the mission in for rescuing NPCs from a prison transport Caterpillar, fun mission.
The really high bounties on prison escapees also adds in more content for bounty hunters.
Sweet. Are there many missions in game now? I want content to play if I can't have actually mechanics like salvage, lol. And for me, story missions, or missions period, are worth my time.
No storyline missions yet, but there are a lot of missions.
- Delivery missions (standard pick up package from A, deliver to B)
- Mercenary missions such as:
- Patrols
- Escort
- Clear hostiles from designated area
- Space
- Ground Bunkers
- Rescue the crew of an hijacked 890J
- Rescue criminals from a disabled prison transport Caterpillar (crime stat)
- PvE Bounty Hunting Missions
- System generated PvP Bounty Hunting (have to complete a specific PvE Bounty Hunting mission to unlock)
- Investigation missions (search for body(ies) in caves, crash sites, destroyed ships in space, etc.) - there are sometimes counterpart missions for the crash sites and destroyed ships to recover the black box or a specific package
- Races (Gravlev or Small Ship)
- Named NPC missions (these are variations of many of the above, but a little more complicated, usually pay more, and frequently have requirements/restrictions on being able to get them)
There suppose to be a CitCon Data Center mission; Data Center placeholders are already located on Microtech, not sure when the missions are going to be implemented though.

Fucking sweet! And these are spread out all over the place?
Thank you for this, this is awesome.
OH MY GOD she's so beautiful!
Most are, but some are only in specific areas such as:
- 890J mission: Only around MicroTech and ArcCorp
- Caterpillar mission: Only around ArcCorp (if I remember correctly)
- Named NPC missions: Some of these are only offered if you're within a specific range (and meet other requirements) while others are offered anywhere in Stanton
- There are also Hurston space specific Bounty Hunter missions (both legal and illegal)
So I gotta get in game and find them. Ugh. Sounds like work! Haha.
Noticed something pretty impressive. When you wear your Expo suit out in a blizzard on MT, it cakes up with snow. Go back inside your Rover, and after a few minutes, the snow slowly melts off. THAT is attention to detail.
You look like Tom Cruise nice shot.
As for the release of Prison stuff my guess is this has something to do with SQ42 gameplay and that is why they forced it out before all the fun MMO aspects of the game. If they want to get SQ42 out things like this are going to be prioritized or we are going to see more delays in SQ42.(and yes i know you might not want to play SQ42 but its been slated for release before MMO is out. We will get all that other stuff later trust me im a huge Salvage guy myself and i know your pain.)
Prison gameplay is there because there was no risk for pirates, criminals, etc other than being hunted for PvP bounties, and even then, they only lost a bit of time.
before they can put in things like looting a destroyed ship, they needed to add in a risk mechanism.
prison is that risk, it even then, you can use it to your advantage

You no longer have to spawn at PO for your first log in.
It now gives the following options for your first spawn point:
- New Babbage
- Area 18
- Lorville
- *PO (available 3.8, but appears to be removed as an option 3.9)
I've seen comments in Spectrum indicating that CIG mentioned recently that they plan to remove PO sometime after the new location on Crusader is implemented, though I don't know where CIG stated that.

^ This * 1000 ... if I buy a load of cargo and sell it, it is at least a 20min time investment PLUS the x0,000 or x00,000 aUEC I paid for it.
If some pirate or asshat griefer decides to blow me up, for the lulz, there is no real risk on their part, and not much of a time investment on their part (they can just bounce from system to system looking for targets).
Prison gameplay (or something like it) really had to come in sooner rather than later.
