When next week? I’ll be back Saturday night, and I might be able to convince my neighbor who plays to join us.
We’ll be departing on Wed 6th and should arrive before the end of Friday 8th (In fact, the journey may not take that long but I’m leaving plenty of leeway in case I’m busy with work.)
24 hours to departure.
ALL ABOOOOOOOARD!
PS: There appears to be more interest on FEI PAW’s Discord channel this time - available here (scroll down to channel #203):
Dangit, and here I am with a malfunctioning joystick.
5th time’s a charm, hopefully.
Some more pics from the journey back. As it happened, I was too busy to meet the original departure date and all my passengers disembarked to get rides on other carriers. So I took the opportunity to travel slowly, scan each system, and explore some of the more picturesque spots I found. Enjoy …
Those shots are incredible. That last one is spectacular
Thanks. ED is certainly the prettiest game I own, it’s just that the good views take a bit of finding
It doesn’t just look pretty,it is one of the best sounding games ever. The way the ship humms and purrs is just excellent.
And in VR it’s just glorious.
I just tried ED again since I got my VR.
Incredible! Even the cockpit on the starter ship is bigger than my living room.
Well, decided to not put my Vulture at risk with any “Day 1” mistakes. Bought a discount Sidewinder and it went something like this:
-Couldn’t remember how to make money, so I took an Assassination mission several Ly away.
-Made several jumps with my anemic Jump drive.
-Almost ran out of fuel.
-Forgot that fuel scoops aren’t standard equipment and almost burned up my ship.
-Limped into port and got repaired.
-Timed out on my initial mission but picked up a second in same system.
-Made it to system and found a mission target.
-Realized that I couldn’t pull him out of frame shift.
-Dropped at a Nav Beacon. Found and attacked the mission target.
-Forgot that Sidewinders are squishy. Spaced immediately.
-Rebought Sidewinder and headed back to Nav point looking for easier prey.
-Collected several bounties.
-Forgot Sidewinders were squishy. Spaced again.
Ahhhhh, it’s good to be back!
Love it!
