Elite: Dangerous is 75% off at the moment, if you've ever wanted to try the game, or want an alt account to play in the Bubble while your main is in deep space (or be your co-pilot for an extra pip).

sold! and thanks for the heads up. I look forward to buying that other space game for this price too a few months after it releases. In 2025

Yes, I know I'm paranoid, but am I paranoid enough?

Just got my HOTAS off Amazon, so will be diving in. Going to play normally for a bit, then swap to VR once I have the controls committed to memory.

"Beyond - Chapter One" (3.0 or the next phase of Elite Dangerous after Horizons) launches February 27. Watch trailer. Promises: improvements to core gameplay, new crime and punishment system, improved trading data/map, wing missions, new ships (Chieftain player ship and new Thargoid scouts, but Krait is still to come), more interactive megaships and installations, materials broker, technology broker, overhaul of engineering, in-game Galnet audio, new astronomical anomalies, improvements to planetary visuals and more detailed surface environments.

I like that you can pick your quest reward from three different options now.

Now have the Cutter.
So you can insert rant on 'I hate wasting large berths on small items' rant here.

See you chaps that are Trader Elite ? How the fuck did you do it and how the fuck did you not blow your fucking brains out with the boredom ?
Seriously.
Edit ; turns out it's changed and making money on Passenger missions also helps your trading rank. Hit Tycoon last night after running the Parutis/Medb billions.
So that's nice.

Awesome.
I headed out there a couple of months ago, but took many diversions to sights along the way, and by the time I'd done the Heart and Soul nebulae, patch 3.0 was introduced. It sucked to be far away from all the new action and it was gonna be a long time before I returned to the bubble.
I was taking screenshots at Base Camp station in the Soul Nebula, and somehow I aggroed the station :) It blew me up and instead of respawning me there, I was was offered LHS 3447 insured, or LHS 3447 Sidewinder. Apparently this was a bug in 3.0, but I thought it was because Base Camp had no shipyard.
I'd already sold my exploration data out there, so I took my insured LHS 3447 respawn taxi to the bubble, bought a T9 with its new extra 256-ton cargo slot, and started trading (only to realise what Ironwood posted above, that I should be doing passenger missions). Maybe one day I'll go back towards the Rift!
