CMDR_ColeHello Commanders,

I am Commander Albert Cole (CMDR Cole). Just started ED over the weekend, and already hooked deep. Started a fresh game with a new GamerTag I made just for ED last night, cleared about 30 data delivery and salvage missions around my starting system, and sold my Sidewinder for a Hauler.

So far, I spend my evenings playing, and my days at the office cruising the forums and YT videos. Any advice for a total n00b is totally appreciated.

See you in the black Commanders,

CMDR Cole

Don't spend too much time on the forums and YT while you're at work. Bosses tend to be a bit less than understanding.

Getting out and getting some sun and exercise is always a good idea.

Unless it's a white dwarf... definitely keep your distance from those Cmdr Cole.

Yes, get yourself a cobra III, fit it with with a few weapons a manifest scanner and an interdiction device with cargo space and some hatch-breakers. Go to High population Agricultural systems in the BOOM state.  Look for cargo ships, pull them over and scan them. If they have Low Temp Diamonds. Hijack them.

YES

(Look for cargo ships with Mining Lasers, specifically)

Greetings to all!

I'm CMDR Boldreight T. Hannak and I started my adventure in the 'Verse just few days ago. I'm a tour operator, an right now I'm just flying my Hauler fitted to be a taxi but I have plans to got a Dolphin and become more serious about this career and act in a more proper way.

Well... I just wanted to greet everyone.

Fly safe you all.

The dolphin is a lot of fun, although you can act "properly" in it too if you like. Just make sure you've got A-rated drives if you take on a Mitterand Hollow fare.

Happy flying! Γ0

Hello All,

Hope I'm doing this right, coming to you on the PC from the Wing Up Commander Reddit thread.

Chris Starwind in game, long time Eve player who's wanted to play Elite forever but held off until I got a joystick and throttle for Christmas.

A bit about me: I'm in my mid thirties, and get around 5-10 hours to play mostly very early AM before work (i like Res hunting for an hour haha, good new morning routine) and nights and weekends. I'd say time in the chair is likely below 10 hours a week so going to be casual, such is life.

I've currently worked my way up to a Viper, and am bounty hunting in He Bo, but I have no allegiances yet and like the empire lore. I just went to He Bo because I saw it on a reddit thread for having a lot of rings

Long term, I'd like to explore but right now staying in bubble and learning how to fly. I've been keeping it on solo mode to build up bank roll on NPC's and such for now, but that mostly due to knowing absolutely no one.

Hoping to meet everyone soon, I do use discord.

Hello Chris, welcome to Inara. Lots of us use discord, so no doubt we'll chat with you there quite soon.

Take care out there.

Welcome!

The dolphin is a fun little ship, and quite the good smuggler if you ever decided to go that route. Can be very lucrative sneaking contraband into stations, and right beneath your passengers feet.

Welcome!
I don't get much time in as well. About 6 hours a week. But there is quite a bit to do and when you have plan in mind and a goal to reach for, you will find that progress will happen! Res hunting is fun!

Bubble is actually pretty sparse of people. Really they only congregate around community goals and engineers. I've been playing for 2 years now and have seen a handful of people in open. But it is fun to interact. You should give it a try!

Hi. Thanks for the hints

Thanks for the warm welcomes all!

Is there a home system, or system(s) that I should head towards from He Bo?

I'm hopping on to the discord later tonight but was going to try to move out towards everyone while I make dinner.
