I started at Area18 and despite its ruggedness and generally looks pretty battered it has some really good shops that are literally right outside your habitat. I think if i could do it again i would probs start at Area18 having visited the other places now.

Area 18, just because you have lots of shops there, Loreville has no shops and you don't want Orison, you can change that in game anyway.
I noticed today after checking event viewer that im getting a lot of these Kernel eventtracing error codes. The game runs fine, no crashes now that i've reset everything to stock with XMP1 enabled for my ram. Really weird, its on windows 11 as well.
I'll check for that later my self.
Yeah let me know matey, i had some driver issues as well after realising i may have installed some win10 drivers for my win11 install lol but i've corrected that now and those error bugs have gone.
So apparently the errors im getting has something to do with Anti Cheat, does SC use Anti cheat? Any idea how to fix this, i'm starting to wonder if this is the cause of all my BSOD's lately and not my clocks.

New to SC, gave the free play a go before committing to a starter pack. I'm a bit late to the SC world, but after trying it out, I decided to give it a blast.
I assume I will lose access to the ships/equipment/money from the free play trial when it expires and be left with just the starter pack setup? Dont want to get too comfortable so early into the game...

Yes there is anticheat I noticed the logo as I updated it yesterday.
Yes you lose everything at a reset, I'm keeping the mindset that I'm not playing the game I'm an early access tester, albeit paying for the access thereby acting as a backer. Although you see the memes it's really the only way fans of certain genres or for games pushing the limits will get them made. Publishers just want a big return yesterday. I'm in the same boat as you, I've dabbled with it a bit but I'm essentially starting from scratch.

To reinforce that point a bit. I was trying box delivery missions with a couple others yesterday. Between us we must have tried almost at least a dozen missions and not even half of them were successful due to game crashes. Frustrating but as Troezar said, no other game is trying to have the scope that SC is. And we already know what happens when big names get involved with these kind of games, a date gets set and they get pushed out ready or not.
Exactly and then they bomb. I think I've done enough reading around to be confident they are genuinely pushing the boundaries of what can be done. This will be beneficial to gaming as a whole driving other developers to strive for more and pushing average hardware upwards. One benefit of the slower progress is server technology has improved at a huge rate, especially with AMD pushing hard.
I would imagine there will also be money to be made licencing the in-house tools to other developers at a later date?

cool video For newcomers
Not to mention after the free week there is also a big patch coming in 2-3 weeks time which will again be a complete wipe so something to keep in mind.
If you're getting crashes like i was, i would first remove all overclocks on both cpu, memory and gpu and also check event viewer for Kernel errors with Anticheat. From my post above there is a consistent error that happens every 5 mins or so which is followed by a quick stutter in the game. I tried a few fixes last night including one recommended by SC via editing the registry but that didn't work.. all it did was create a constant stutter in the game and made it unplayable.
Saying that though i did manage a 3 hour game last night with a friend without crashing though our ship got absolutely wrecked lol.
I dunno if it was a bug but i felt like the ship should have been destroyed at this point, the cockpit was basically on fire, rear cargo door was missing, right engine was destroyed, major torque inbalance... This was after a skirmish with some UEE patrols after we accidentally took too long to land and then had our landing permission revoked followed by turrets shooting at us!

I do get them.... interesting.
Yes, SC uses Easy Anti-Cheat.

Hey guys, I'll ask this here since I expect there's some other recent VKB purchasers about.
I ordered two sticks from them last month and got sent a text from UPS asking for the £44.50 before they could deliver. Fair enough. Took delivery the next day.
Then a few weeks later I received a second invoice from UPS asking for another £34.01, listed as "charges" which is also apparently eligible for interest and a late payment fee as I received the invoice six days after the payment due date.
Has anybody else had this?
I've been in touch with UPS a couple of times to find out what's up and I just get offered help to track my parcel.

An artist tasked with the job of adding a different turret to an already existing asset in the game is not someone who is going to add any value in a server team.
CiG are a company with nearly 700 staff with a constant stream of different pieces of work. They're not suddenly going to get rid of an art guy who is currently working on a smaller piece so they can add one extra coder

DistributedCOM is MicrosoftTextInput, its Microsoft bundled spyware, i disabled it by renaming the folder and the OS is having a hissyfit over it.....
I should probably say i think those Kernel events are from 3.17.2, and it did hang last night at around 2AM, such is the state of 3.17.2 right now.

I had a similar but different issue with mine. After paying the original value and getting the part sent. A few weeks later I was charged fees on an under payment of £0.11 that was clearly some sort of error - I'd paid the fee I was charged on their website. Ended up having to send a lot of emails before they finally backed down and cancelled it.
I think you'll have to keep at it until you can speak to a person who can explicitly explain why you. Looking back at my mail chain perhaps these emails addresses may be of help for you:
Payments issues: [email protected]
Import charges issues: [email protected]

What @PinkFloyd said, an artist can't do server meshing and turning the Anvil Ballista in to the Anvil Centurion would have taken one guy a few hours, all he did was swap out the missile turret for a pew pew turret and add some stabiliser stand things to the vehicle, like you find on a crane.

I'm in the OCUK Discord Other Voice Channels 1 if anyone wants to join me.
Well i suppose that makes me feel a little bit better that im not alone in this. I do get the hangs as well though they are rare and oddly usually when im on the metro line going from commons to the spaceport/hangers.I do get them.... interesting.
Yes, SC uses Easy Anti-Cheat.
Going by what we know then, it doesn't seem like there's any fix for it and have to wait in a few weeks time to see what the next patch brings/fixes.
On a side note i tried adding SC.exe to the registry for higher cpu usage as suggested by SC's own tutorial and it made it a whole lot worse. The game just stuttered like mad and made it unplayable.
