Not sure if the typo in the thread title is intentional or not.

I keep thinking I'll get back into this game, especially since I discovered that I pre-ordered Horizons at some point and completely forgot. Then I remember that I left myself parked in an Asp about a third of the way to the galactic core. :shepface:

Decided to start fresh because I last played pre-Horizons and also I hate myself. What's my best bet for making money? To start off I've been running boom haulage missions for 50-200k a pop.

I returned to the bubble from my voyage to the center last night. Between dropping off my passenger and selling all my cartographic data, I made about 100 million in profit :whatup:

Also I am now 70% into Ranger, 89% into friendly with the feds, and allies with a bunch of core systems

Wait, you mean you ferried some poor bastard all the way to the galactic core and back? And got paid for it?

Well the only logical thing to do now is ferry some aspiring explorer to the opposite side of the galaxy and back. :unsmigghh:

The Cobra IV is a fat gently caress compared to its predecessor, but I do love the woosh it makes when you boost.

Massive cargo capacity for a small multipurpose, too.

Kitted out a DBS for exploration and headed out to Maia, I missed hopping around and honking every system I came across. Once I have the cash for it I'll upgrade to a DBX.

e: I forgot how cool running the DBS is, with my current fit my baseline cruise heat is 24% :coal:

I'm liking the DBS as baby's first explorer but the lack of internal mounts means I can't fit an AFMS, so neutron hopping is out of the question.

Hopefully it won't take too long to honk enough systems to afford a DBX.

I like that fit, but it feels like you aren't really gaining much jump range by swapping to a class 3. With a 4A power distributor you're only losing about 1LY, and any jump range over 50 is still amazing in my book.
