Usually I do, actually. There was nothing to do when out exploring and you'd encounter other players other than chat or shoot, but I still stuck mainly to Open 99% of the time anyway.
But I recently came to Lugh, and I think there were 200 NPCs spawned and about thirty players. I dropped out of supercruise so the slideshow wouldn't accidentally collide me with a planet, then switched to solo, just to freaking dock. Now if you go and fight at the combat zone for your community quest there, you'll find a bunch of players who hate the Federation, I counted ten or so in the high conflict zone. Now fed-hating players have their own couple community quests to worry about, and really shouldn't be motivated to be in that particular warzone, so this probably surprises Braben but I'm not surprised really.
Anyway I discovered the smuggling quest. You fly to the Cargo beacon next to the station, find the main hauler, and take out his cargo hold so he drops a bunch of military plans, which you take to the station in the same orbit. I have 24 cargo hold, gotten so I can fill it off 2 haulers, and it nets over a million when I smuggle it in. I was kind of being entertained by this because I hadn't done much pirating, gotten pretty good last night at blasting cargo bay doors. Anyway, doing this a bit for credits put me in the top %5 for the community goal, and all that took was smuggling 240 tons. If they don't reach the next tier, and I stay in the top 5%, I'll get around 7 million. So I was just screwing around with that.
Tonight I should be about tricking out a brand new Fer de Lance if you're on. |
