Ryan MurdocI think he ment to be wary of persons because they might be out to kill you.


If that were the case, he would have said. "Trust no one in game." But he didn't. He said, trust no one, which means everybody. And there are an awful lot of everbodies.....

I've been informed by many that I am no one. So I think he actually meant to trust me.

You're logic is completely sound. I think from now on I should really only trust you. Screw the nay-sayers and non-believers.

And also, this is to everyone: I've got the choice of a few ships to buy a ship now that I know sort of what I'm doing in the game and have 163000 or so credits. I also want to do more fighting in the game than anything else so is it worth getting the Falcon mark III now since I'll only be left with 20000?

Interpret it how you want. I may have been suggesting that he not trust his parents, partners or close friends. I may have been suggesting that he also include pedants who, in an attempt to be funny, make pointless critical observations. Then again, maybe not.

Uhh.. The Falcon?? I think you are looking at the Make of the ship rather than the Model. I'm sure plenty of people will know what you mean, but sadly I don't. I do know that you must be referring to the Cobra or the Viper though.

If that doesn't make sense, put it like this. You just asked if you should buy a Ford. We need to know if you mean the Mondeo or the Pickup Truck.

Regardless. The number one rule in Elite is to NEVER FLY WHAT YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO REBUY. With that bank balance, I'd leave it until you will have around 100K leftover AFTER outfitting. Otherwise one wrong move and it's hello Sidewinder again.

@Sausig

Just get an Eagle.
Then fly to the closest ordinary or hi RES, join cops fighting wanted ships there.
If you will be accurate and will do only last shots before criminals die, you`ll be safe. And`ll get millions for couple of hours.
Period.

Oh, and dont forget to get back and dock to the station to sell bounty vouchers alive.
;)

Let's talk cabin sizes.
Is there a semi-complete listing of available sizes and fits developing?
Am I wasting my time looking for a size 4B, (or A for that matter) 1st class cabin to seat more than 3?

Thanks for everyone's help. I've got the blunty hunting down now (that's how I got the first 163000) but it's just advice on buying stuff. I appreciate the idea of buying all my crap again because I've already died twice and had to re-buy a turret that I got when I re-spawned, so no worries there. I'll work on grabbing more bounties and I'll just skip to having the Viper mkIII which is what I meant to say rather than Faulcon. Thanks again!

Not at all, but I reserve the right to respond to banter and if someone wants to chat, I'll chat back. Is that OK with you beardy?

You'll get no argument from me. I just think it's hilarious when people like to dish it out but then start to freak out when someone's snarky back at them.

I'm sure how I gave you the impression I was freaking out, but I will reevaluate the cheap aftershave I bought in Colonia.

Are you referring to on here or in game?

I have a question regarding ammo synthesis. Do "Standard" and "Premium" reloads provide the damage boost to the first loaded magazine and entire reserve?
