I still roll my eyes at the "earn the right to sit in an Anaconda" like spending ~100 hours (or more) in multicrew doing min/max bounty hunting isn't a slog

What's a good weapon strategy for the Conda? I've just put some rail guns on the small hardpoints at the back because I mistakenly thought that G5 Dirty's would allow me to hit stuff occasionally and it would be a nice perk in battle. Wrong! This build needs a makeover: https://eddp.co/u/Bzep6WTv

I think some of it is misplaced frustration. The early game feels really good while you can still see yourself making progress and I think a lot of forumdads miss that once they're in the thousand hour wilderness but are just doing that gamer thing where making even the slightest criticism of a game means you've wasted your money. So it's all just whiners who want easy mode forcing Frontier to make the game bad.

Quince is fantastic for ripping through the empire ranks. Also if you reach 100% the counter doesn't actually stop counting the next rank ahead.

Well, this just happened. My first Elite rank, and I spent most of my free time today grinding out the last 43% through sightseeing missions in my AspX. 287 hours total on record and I also passed the 500M cash point which means that I'll be buying something nice just as soon as I can find a LiRongYi system that supplies it.

Just checking, but you know that getting Elite gives you a permit to Shinrarta Dezhra, a system where every ship and module is always available at 10% off? I mean, it's not 15%, but it's just so much more convenient than flying from port to port. You would that think that Frontier wold mention that in the little space e-mail you get but oh wait, no, you wouldn't because Frontier.

Yeah I just dinged one billion spacebux and it coincided almost perfectly with me making 100% Marquis. So now I'm board flipping for an ascension mission for my Dukedom and my giant fat shiny spaceship rights

Mike the TV posted:And then ask the dumbest newbie question as if you don't know how to request docking or outfit your ship. Hello I am new and not so good at this game so please forgive my dumb questions. I followed the Quince newbie guide but it never told me how to dock (lol?). I know how to launch my sidewinder and land on the planet and scan a thing. But now that I have a real ship I want to try more things with it. When I try to dock the station just gives me a trespass warning? What am I doing wrong? Please help.

Find an anarchy system with a tourist beacon and set up camp at it. Passenger ships will spawn in every couple minutes, they're easy to kill and the Beluga always drops a bunch of good hauler materials. I think HIP 16094 is one such system.

LostCosmonaut posted:Don't worry about it, it's deliberately hard as poo poo. I don't think I've ever beaten it, and I've been playing for months. I keep forgetting that there even is a tutorial. Back when I started, I think I only did the basic land-on-a-station tutorial and the very first combat one. Just to see if I could fire my weapons without accidentally face planting into an asteroid. Which I did, by the way. I also crashed badly in my first attempt at landing. After 2-3 tries I completed both tutorials and immediately started the real game, never thinking about the tutorials ever again. Until today.

Killed 9-10 ships at that beacon and still haven't got what I need. Maybe someday the RNG will smile on me.
