MeowersCupcoI have officially made my first ED discovery today. It is a solo F-class star 1019 ly from Sol. I would like to thank everyone here for your support. Let's hope it is the first of many.

Yay! Congratulations! Really, it's quite an easy task if you go at least 300ly away and won't be filtering out unscoopables.
CupcoThanx Burstar o7

NP. Also, I'd sell that data asap so you get your name stamped permanently on that star. This will ofc not be priority for EVERY first find you do once you're out there, but something so close? Why not. There's almost certainly somewhere nearby to make it official
CupcoActually, I only found out that I was the discoverer after I turned it in. I quickly went back to see if there was more.If you discovered a main star in that system, then planets are undiscovered and waiting for you as well.

Lol, you definitely playing in solo nowadays
ArtieAccording the journals, there were some expensive repairs (like 3.7 million each).
BurstarDirnivirMadamepestilenceI haven't played ED in a while and I've just come back [11/8/21], can someone TLDR what's going on with the Thargoids please? /srs
good question. i however dont know the answer.
Aegis, the Superpower backed anti-xeno faction, has had a couple very significant failures which ended up costing it support from the Superpowers. They are currently suspended pending investigations.
Salvation, an unknown entity supposedly also against Thargoids, is attempting to fill this vacuum through its own initiatives and apparent superior knowledge on the Thargoids motivations/plans. It successfully predicted (not detected) a Thargoid attack, and with community support, used some sort of superweapon to annihilate the invasion force. The jubilation at this overwhelming success was short lived however as the Thargoids responded with the largest attack on human interests in their Space in recent history. Salvation has been notably silent since.
Gameplay-Wise
Guardian synthesis materials might be farmed easier at surface sites in the Cornsar system (haven't been there after the first week so not sure if it's still a thing).
Engineered Guardian weapons may now be purchased from certain Guardian Tech brokers (costs materials/commodities) although most aren't better than their original counterparts (the New Plasma Charger being the OP exception: I'll be floored if it isn't nerfed soon).
MP has slightly improved with the fix of the frustrating Indestructible Heart bug, and combat bond payouts have quadrupled from what they were a year ago
