Is it just me, or is anyone else experiencing screen lockup?
I've tried shutting down, restarting, and numerous other things, but every time I try to cruise in FSD, it just freezes.
It started in one of the star ports when I went to open the services menu. Since then, nothing but problems.
I've decided to reload the game on my pc. Hopefully this will rectify the problem.

Freezes occur me since a patch after Horizons was implemented, mainly when I ALT+TAB the game to check something.

If you're talking about the way you get merits with Arissa Lavignly-Duval, then no. Crime sweeps are similar to conflict zones, but are actually labeled "crime sweeps". If you're having trouble finding any, it's because there aren't any this week.

Cool. New to the game and still trying to figure out how power play works. And yes I am talking about   Arissa Lavignly-Duval. Thank you for the reply man.

Pilots of Inara! Do you want to unite under a common flag? Thanks to a new player faction that was 'given' control of Kremainn, this once noob friendly territory by the LHS 3447 spawn has fallen into Anarchy! I plead to you all, support the cause to oust this player faction with absolutely NO internet presence, and seemingly no activity in this high population system. Help restore law to the territory, and make it safe(r) for the new players once more!

You can help by killing the House of Grebmo npc's, or even better, smuggle goods into Wohler terminal to undermine this outrageous and egregious crime! Please help our new players. I thank you, as do much of the rest of the Elite community

That's not so easy to change at the moment. May want to wait for another patch version, when FD implement some more changes to how player factions work. Anyway, good luck with that. I'm more interested in getting the player minor faction that my buddies got started to thrive. Cheers

A player faction works the same as any minor faction. Since not everyone understands the BGS like some of the top player factions do (we have research teams that spend time in the meta; one player group in particular focused completely on BGS has spread their minor faction to TEN different systems), I listed out PRECISELY what you can do to help. These are proven methods to instigate states of lockdown and civil unrest. It's honestly a lot easier than you may think. You just need numbers to get behind it.

Regarding that one Player group spreading their Minor faction to ten systems - do they completely control each and every Station in said systems or "just" one of them ? Would be interesting to find out if one needs to be in total control of a System regarding them Stations (no idea if that's the same with Planetary settlements) or just one per system to be counted towards the "reward" offered by FD (once a year a Minor faction that came to be due to Players requesting it can be chosen to be elevated to become a Power in Powerplay).

I think it works the same way as the powerplay faction controlling 1 sytem and exploiting the surrounding systems.

I have a question.

If a team of one coder, one modeler and maybe one other person helping the other two can create a feature-complete space-sim that's offline-capable as well as multiplayer-friendly, offers planetary landing and exploration regardless of atmosphere (don't try exploring gas giants unless you know what the hell you're doing though!), city and station building/ownership, all the sandbox staples, AND does so in a package that's less than 400MB thick... why is taking David Braben, his staff of 260 employees, and a much larger pile of cash comparatively 10 seasons to offer much less functionality?

I would seriously like to know why that is.

(I'm talking about Evochron Legacy. Check it out if you haven't. It's $25 on Steam.)
