Elite: Dangerous (Kickstarted Sandbox Space Flight Sim)

Near or over 20% influence in the system and definitely a pirate faction, has names with drug or mafia in the title, probably some others. Also there's some pirate organizations like Gold Raiders or Jet Family or something that are larger than a single system faction, those seem to be the best.

I just got the Hors system permit, which has a staggering 26.8% Anarchy "Clan of Hors" in its faction list.

But it's federation territory, with a repair rearm refuel station in it.

Federation influence is only at 56.7%, but security is listed at Medium, which may be too much.

you need to make sure no planet is in focus on the system view.

Unfortunately, that mining spot will be fairly average. You want Metallic rings, not Metal Rich.

Gotcha, found a few of those and now I know.

Sounds like a fun party.

Rep through trading is a joke, I made Ally with a station I've never been at in 10 runs

What did you do to raise federation faction? I've made easily 20 allies now, but fed is still friendly - so is Empire now, even though I've never been there.

had to go through some boxes at my other place over xmas break to clear up some room but couldn't throw these away. I still prefer the fully offline-noone-screws-my-universe play of yesteryear but with full sim set-up and todays techDangerousis a good enough replacement that it's certainly going to keep me in my seat for the next few years and hopefully beyond

Haha I havw those two in the basement too

Why isn't this available on Steam?

I did end up picking this up the other night. My experience in this genre is Freelancer (and I just only played and completed that single player campaign a couple months ago). So far, I've tinkered with voice attack setting up voice commands, which is very cool so far. I'm completely lost in game though. I've docked and taken off a few times, managed to buy 4 barrels of biowaste somehow, but no clue where to sell it. Tried to go a to a couple different places only to have the game tell me I didn't have enough fuel. Once I figure out how to make a little money things should smooth out, but right now I just mostly stare at the UI lost.

Is this game worth 250 bucks? Cause realistically that's what I'd need to spend for the game + reliable HOTAS.

Biowaste goes to an agricultural station. What system are you at?
