Freighter, let's you carry more supplies to sell for mad profit. And the mule can hold its own really well.

so I installed SS+ and nexerelin, and it asks me who I want to side up with. Should I just pick a normal faction or go with one of the mod ones? I've never really played much before so I'm not sure if buddying up to a mod faction from the start would be more difficult.

On top of this I chose BRDY since I read the stuff is awesome. I can't find any pirates or anything to kill now, seems like everything is massive fleets. Should I switch back to vanilla until i get a better grasp on stuff?

Did the fact that they released the patch notes actually mean the patch was incoming? Or are we still talking weeks-months wait?

He said not soon (not days away) on the forum, probably a week or two still.

Not sure I'm a fan of the new sensor stuff. I'm spending more time sitting around doing sensor sweeps and less time fighting. Is this supposed to be fun?

Can you just start a new game, save it, then back out and start a new non-tutorial game? I think the tool tip said you cant check it as there wasn't a saved game yet.

Tried this and no. have to complete it.

Yeah I just tried a condor with broadswords compared to the regular interceptors and they really seemed worse. Interceptors gently caress poo poo up good
