so journal entry number 3.. the quietness is maddening, all i can hear are the engines. i have forgotten what another persons voice sounds like . The journey is so very lonely and as they once said in a very old movie .. no one can hear you scream in space .. well i scream once or twice just to make sure this journey isn't just a dream there are 2 things keeping me going on this journey .. the things i am seeing on this journey are spectacular . although i wonder sometimes if they are real or if its my mind making them up to just keep me sane .. the other thing keeping me going is that damn gibbon. he left without saying good bye and also he owes me 20000 galactic credits, he owes them to me because i gave him them as down payment on the piece of junk he calls a ship. Seriously his ship makes the millennium falcon look like a pleasure liner...plus when you get on board all it smells of is wet dog and stale banana beer and he cant escape me . there is litteraly one place he can go .. jaques station .. so ive headed into the unknown to follow him and make him pay up . if he pays up fine .. if not then i will wreck his ship and leave him stranded on that godforsaken base this is (ret) General Bladechaser signing off with some of the sights ive seen

Really nice pics bladechaser!
After reading your and Gibbons logs I'm thinking of also joining this game. They have a nice discount going now.

It's a big game Cadfael, very very big, words can't describe how big it is. Be prepared to put in the hours on this one lol

So, can you also have sessions of about 1-2 hours and still have done something? How does it work, because with freelancer all planets and bases were relatively close by. And do you get a lot of interaction with other players? or is it so big that you hardly find each other? The way I played the past year was just a few hours now and then when I had time to play. Not sure if that would work well with this game. But then, I should revise my priorities and make more time for gaming

Totally agree lol. They've mapped most of the milky way so it is quite large, that said the so called bubble of space where most of the players are concentrated while still big, means you do run into other players regularly. Some are nice, some are idiots, how things are. Plenty to do in the occupied part of space, trade, fight, explore, mine, the usual stuff in space games. Loads of upgrades can be made for your ships, you can have wingmen which will help you out, for a fee, transport passengers, do pretty much whatever you want

That sounds great.
But I think I also need to upgrade my videocard. Still running a Radeon HD5800 series, and that's getting pretty old already. For Arc I had to turn things way down already. For the rest I have an intel i7-975k processor with 8GB Ram memory. I bought this pc around 2010, didn't think i had it that long already. And don't really want to buy a completely new one.
What are you guys using atm?

well gibbon has beaten me to colonia .. but only because that slut of an ex chesty gave away my secret of neutron star surfing .. with out me that smelly gibbon would still be jumping . but its ok as along the way the space madness took over so i didnt really care . i took some time out to get my head straight and carried on chasing him down for my money heres what i found along the way my ships paint is now pretty much gone ..that stellar dust is a killer also as you get closer to the center of the galaxy it starts to get very bright well ive docked at polo harbor the last stop before colonia see you when i get there (RET)General Bladechaser signing off
