FrontButtHello All,
Been playing for nearly 2 years off and on... Have been quietly observing the community from the sidelines for a while. With the new update on our heels, I thought it was time to step in. This site is neat, it's pleasant having a place to organize everything, so I really applaud the site devs and community feedback that has built this.
Just found my way here through the great google engine.
Currently trying my first time at 'Deep' space exploration, doing a passenger mission that puts me about 21k ly from the bubble, to a Black Hole. So far... it is what you make of it.
Welcome to the forum, i'm reasonably new too.
Top tip on your long distance trip into the black, try to plot your route above or below the x axis. You'll instantly triple your data money for all those sweet undiscovered's out there. Apologies if that's teaching you to suck eggs, dunno if your 2 years has just been pew pew or not.

Thank you! It was pretty pew pew till I earned enough for a ship that could run passenger missions or 1mil cred planet based missions relatively efficiently, so I will take what ever tips the community is willing to impart. Heck, it was a solid year and a half before I took the game seriously and even knew about discounted parts/ships.

Considering the vast depth of this game and it's many aspects, nobody needs to be ashamed if not everything is known to oneself.
I'd prefer to be surprised instead of knowing it all, because the latter might lead to boredom. And that is never good to keep one interested.

Been playing ED for just under 2yrs, mostly PvE, just now contemplating spending more time in open.
I go back to the days of one-man-and-his-Cobra, on the original C64 version of Elite, so Darthjazzhands' Silverbacks Wing is the one for me

Open will bring a whole new feel to your gaming experience. Take care out there.
