I've been collecting stuff from ship wrecks, now my cargo hold is full, what do i do with the stuff in it?

You can sell most stuff in stations that have demand for the item you are selling. Do you have any "illegal salvage" or "illicit cargo"? If so you can only sell this in a station that has a black market.

I use EDDB to find stations that have demand for your cargo and also will show you stations with a black market.

Don't get scanned when docking with illegal cargo otherwise you will incur a fine or worse...

Yep, and so far, as I suggested/predicted, it's seemingly comprised of random (hyperspace) interdictions? I can see little else than more morse codes, bar codes and sign waves to decipher, and if things get messy, rebadged combat zones...

Ultimately, if aliens lead to anything interesting/involved I'll be amazed (& relieved) as the game mechanics just aren't there to make anything of the situation it would seem.
 
Same here, cba with it in its current state, made over 2 billion over 1 year ago, have all the ships apart from latest, couldnt care-less as theres nothing to do. All that universe and its empty, nothing to find except the same crashed ships that give nothing but a minor upgrade.....meh.

Want happened to lots of alien life that was supposed to be in the massive universe? Theres loads of stuff that was promised thats not even started to be implemented. I think ill check back in another 12 months.

Well - like you - at the moment I'm in a holding pattern... I'll "land" when I actually see something interesting in the game to attact me back.

As it stands the past 1-2yrs has shown FD putting effort into fluff rather than true depth/content (for me at least), and then with the recent livestream revelation that not even co-op missions/gameplay is even on the way (possible?), that was the final blow.

Fingers crossed this year sees some real depth added to the game's mechanics & gameplay...

I'll be sticking around Draconis until it falls off, then will go get me some decent weapons just in case..

Have gone from 26mill to just shy of 600, havent been hitting it hard tho, might do a push to 1k then leave it if its still going at that point..
Then some rank grinding to get some big ship action..
 
Yep, not enough to drag me back either.

Will be nice to look at, then it will be nothing but grind then a goalpost change from the grind you have spent time on.

This is what aggravates me too, changing the goal posts.

Some one i know who has the game but also lost faith if you like in the elite universe likens the current version to and i quote `A shiny text based nice looking game, with little content`

Its odd as there seemed something more special about the universe when we only had the beta bubble, i dont know if its because space and size seems meaningless because its too easy to set off and get to the other side the universe without really having to try or do much to get there.

I really hope the game takes off and content with depth is forthcoming but i keep an eye from the forums and very rarely enter the game now, seems a shame but that is just my opinion and my mates.
 
So it seems these aliens are Thargoids... ie: Missions are now ingame to take passengers to these "Thargoid" locations.

And so I guess the great rebadging of the existing (limited) gameplay begins for the Thargoids... But what new will it bring? If in a couple of months we simply end up with rebadged combat zones? Well...
 
Haven't played for about a month. Was there any content (or rather, Galnet articles :rolleyes:) leading up to this, or did fdev just shove something shiny out the door because the plebs have been getting particularly vocal of late?
