Cartlidge1000So... I'm apparently really dumb and can't seem to figure out how to actually get into the open beta. I also don't typically use reddit so... help?



normally you have a new launching option that appears in the bottom of the launcher at the right of the play button, do you have anything?

there's no stupidity, only forgetness.

You'll need to be a little more specific I'm afraid. There's various records kept that aspiring explorers can aim for:

Highest point reached
Lowest point reached
Furthest distance reached from Sol/ Starting Point
Furthest point 'North', 'East', 'South', 'West' (From the perspective that Sgr A* is 'North' of Sol)

And likely, many others. I'd assume you're asking about the 3rd choice really in which case I'd direct you here, although I can't locate the specific thread you'll require at the moment unfortunately.

Beagle Point became Beagle Point because it was the furthest point from Sol one could travel to. That was prior to engineers and neutron star boosts. Now the furthest you can go just depends on how good your engineer rolls were and how much of jumponium you've stocked up.

PS: If you don't have a clue what I've just talked about, you're very unlikely to set a new record in that category

Just a little heads up. Showing a little love for some hometown heroes around here.


You really have gone rogue, haven't you?

Much love to Phisto and crew, though. They know how to get things done!

Thanks, Matt.  Whatever happens that means so much to me.

EDIT: Ok, I think this should work now... My thoughts on the matter.

Well quoted, Ryan. Especially since no one learned that lesson better than Ghost Legion.

Mr. Lehman be sure we have good memory. ... there is huge difference between build/maintain something vs using game broken mechanism to destroy other ppl effort.
