    My Anaconda and I made a trip in real life!

    I found a ringed neutron star on my way to Sagittarius!

    Help: I'm standing here as instructed but nothing is happening! Do I need a friend to jump on that "X" button next to me?

    [New Player] I stumbled across the navigation computer today. I had been writing down the stops on a piece of paper. This is DRAMATICALLY easier.

    Found some weird alien leaf-looking trees. They also make a nasty sludgy noise when standing next to them

    Community Goals: The race is on in the PMD2009 48 system as Aegis and the mysterious Salvation are on a mission to hunt down Guardian artefacts

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 08:54 AM PDT

    Community Goals/r/EliteCGInara

    Aegis Research and Taurus Mining Ventures have requested deliveries of Guardian artefacts to the PMD2009 48 system. The rival campaigns follow the discovery of an ancient battleground between the Guardians and the Thargoids on Trapezium Sector YU-X c1-2 1a.

    Aegis Appeal For Guardian Artefacts

    Aegis Research has positioned a megaship, the Archimedes, in the PMD2009 48 system. Professor Alba Tesreau announced: "It is vital that Aegis replaces the Guardian artefacts that were lost aboard the Alexandria. Without sufficient materials, our anti-xeno research programme will be severely hampered."

    Pilots are asked to deliver Guardian artefacts identified as caskets, orbs, relics, tablets, totems and urns to Aegis Research at the Archimedes in the PMD2009 48 system.

    If Tier 1 is reached and Aegis outcompetes Taurus Mining Ventures, an approximate 5% reduction will be applied to Guardian material requirements at all technology brokers for each tier, to a maximum of 25%. This will last for four weeks from the 2nd of July 3307.

    The initiative begins on the 24th of June 3307 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

    • System = Pmd2009 48
    • Station = Archimedes
    • Commodity List = Guardian Relic, Guardian Orb, Guardian Casket, Guardian Tablet, Guardian Urn, Guardian Totem
    • Current / Target = 0 / 400,000 (0.00%)
    • Expires = in 7 days

    Salvation's Appeal For Guardian Artefacts

    Patience Middleton, representing Taurus Mining Ventures, provided this statement: "'Salvation' has claimed the exclusive rights to exploit the Proteus site, which was discovered thanks to his specialist knowledge. He has contracted us to pay for Guardian caskets, orbs, relics, tablets, totems and urns brought to the megaship Glorious Prospect."

    The Alliance, Empire and Federation consider depriving Aegis of resources to be a criminal act. As a result, pilots are warned that any ship modules received from Taurus Mining Ventures will be marked as 'hot', thereby incurring extra costs to be cleaned prior to installation.

    If Tier 1 is reached, the top 10% of contributors will receive a focused long-range high-penetration fixed Class 2 Guardian Shard Cannon with additional weight, power draw and heat. This will be placed into storage at the Glorious Prospect in the PMD2009 48 system by the 3rd of July 3307.

    If Taurus Mining Ventures outcompetes Aegis, the top 75% of contributors will receive the module.

    The initiative begins on the 24th of June 3307 and will run for one week. If the final target is met earlier than planned, the campaign will end immediately.

    • System = Pmd2009 48
    • Station = Glorious Prospect
    • Commodity List = Guardian Relic, Guardian Orb, Guardian Casket, Guardian Tablet, Guardian Urn, Guardian Totem
    • Current / Target = 0 / 400,000 (0.00%)
    • Expires = in 7 days

    Thoughts on the new CG?

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 07:39 AM PDT

    Aegis: so like, we know you guys worked really hard to fill our megaship with guardian stuff, and we lost it, but pretty please grind it all out again? I'll give you a minor discount on tech broker unlocks that you probably already have?

    Salvation: yo what up dog, you want a long range armor piercing guardian shotgun? I got you covered bro, just give me some guardian orbs and whatnot

    I guess we know where fdev wants this cg to go

    The Odyssey grind for upgrades is nuts

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 04:59 PM PDT

    Title probably should be "engineering grind is nuts" as upgrades are doable, while the engineering mods are not …

    Been playing since the saves were persistent, so like weeks. 20 hours or so a week. Cleared like 100 settlements, looting everything. Had to trade things away twice to clear space.

    Joined Inara.cz and mapped my mats against every mod (suit capacity, fast reload, etc.) for every engineer. After playing for weeks and taking items identified as being needed, or valuable enough to trade, I don't have the mats for a single engineering mod. Short at least 10 or 20 of some data mat on all of them. Many are mining related, even though 3/4 of the sites looted have been extraction or mining or industrial settlements.

    This engineering grind is insane.

    Have over 4000 hours in game and 40+ billion in credits. 27 ships fully engineered. All mostly full ship mats, data, raw, manufactured items. I can farm, I can grind for an outcome.

    But this, this is brutal beyond belief.

    I guess I am done for a while, until either Frontier adds in data trading, or people find approaches that work consistently for all the targeted data types.

    This is too much like pounding your forehead into sand, and claiming you are digging a garden. It's no fun any more.

    Enjoying a mega shroom on an Alien Moon

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 05:14 PM PDT

    Found my first Blue Supergiant today. 1800LY from my starting system. This system ALSO contains a Neutron Star

    Why missions which CAN NOT be completed are available at Stations?

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 03:47 PM PDT

    I just grabbed two missions from a ramdom Station. One was to exterminate people from a faction (Dragons of Aulis) and the other one to sabotage something on a settlement.

    For completing the first one I had to search settlements which were ruled by the Dragons of Aulis faction in the Aulis system. Out of 7 moons, just one settlement met the condition. When I landed I realize the settlement was offline, and full of scavengers, which didn't count for the mission at all. So obviously I had to desert that mission.

    For the second one, when I land in the settlement I couldn't set a foot on the ground, because it was to hot (hotter than 800k I believe). TBH it was the lighted side of the moon, so I'll try in a few hours to see if I can do the mission or if I have to desert this one as well.

    The first time, like a month ago or so, I had the same problem, this types of missions that COULDN'T BE COMPLETED. Odyssey was realeased not long ago and everyone knew it had bugs so I didn't bother that much but now it's just a gross mistake by Frontier to not have this solved.

    Anyone had experienced the same as me with some missions? Am I missunterstanding something?

    Feel fre to post your opinion below!

    o7 Commanders!

    Update 5 delayed until 1st July

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 01:32 AM PDT

    Just a note for anyone like myself who was confused where the update this week was.

    I couldn't see an official text post other then a reply on Twitter about it. Hopefully they'll put something up soon to make it more obvious.

    Edit: Thank you to StuartGT for linking the community schedule from Monday where it was mentioned. I hadn't seen it at the bottom of the post.

    Now, I never want to see Argonomic Treatment ever again..

    Posted: 24 Jun 2021 12:13 PM PDT

    Reminder: you don't need to grind opinion polls or financial projections if you don't enjoy it; just do various missions (restore/heist) and they'll cross your path naturally

    The rebuy system really won't make sense otherwise... How else can you respawn lightyears away after dying?
