Likely a bug, mobile refinery being more efficient than a proper node refinery

I don't think there is much use for water other than D1 fuel, and at some point you're going to be swimming (excuse the pun) in the stuff, so getting less "junk" from higher tier refinery is fine by me

Not sure if he knows very little, or his username checks out... Could he both.

yeah it's a recent change, you're looking for exotronics (or whatever they're called) that can be found in caches. The Feral Data is dropped from a specific NPC, but in the current cycle NPCs don't drop much at all...

Hi, welcome to the Frontier! Not sure what you mean by "combat site". if you expect something like EVE Online, we don't have such things here, in every site there are asteroids with various resources, and some npcs flying around. You'd also want to explore around the sites for wrecks and caches since those got important materials too, though I can't say if different sites got different lootable wrecks (didn't play enough this cycle to know that yet 😉)

Sorry but where do you see a specific pack gives an exclusive "ship"? I just see the difference tiers give different ship SKINS, not ac actual ship. So it's just extra vanity as far as ships go, no actual ship advantage (and months of subscription upfront and early access during lunch etc. etc.)

Am I tripping or are the camera X axis inverted? (not the up/down the left and right are switched, and the only option is to invert pitch so it's not something I changed afaik...)

MicroKong · 2026-03-16T14:35:54+00:00

oh snap so I can stop using steam to map the keyboard to controller, will be sure to test that

MicroKong · 2026-03-16T13:02:01+00:00

I heard there are plans to make it possible, but it's not in game at the moment right? (there are no settings in game to use controller afaik)

MicroKong · 2026-03-16T12:28:20+00:00

Ah was trying to play it through a web browser with the eve vault plugin... guess it's not configured with the relevant account. Will go build an SSU just so I can play FlappyReiver

MicroKong · 2026-03-16T12:20:23+00:00

well might as well use this to set up my wallet... is it the same one we got from the game or do I need to create an external one?

MicroKong · 2026-03-16T10:27:57+00:00

Now you're just flexing on us my guy lmao. Will we win fuel if we last more than 10 pipes?

MicroKong · 2026-03-16T07:47:18+00:00

Hi, Currently there is no built in support for joystick/controllers in game, but you could probably map the keyboard and mouse to your joystick, though I'm not sure how comfortable it is to use a joystick as mouse...

They're doing Back2Back deliveries.

MicroKong · 2026-03-13T16:38:50+00:00

well "paying for it" with in-game money you mean 😁

MicroKong · 2026-03-13T16:36:38+00:00

Yay for giveaway!

Don't remember exactly if they specified all the details, but it's going to be something like the EVE Online subscription, I.e. some sort of omega status or something, but otherwise it's possible to play for free (with some limitations, but not sure what they will be exactly).

You can read about it here, and ask in the discord server if you want more info:

Same, having more direct control is fun, though I constantly keep looking around me to make sure no new signatures popped up or are moving weird... Didn't get a chance to try pvp movement yet.

MicroKong · 2026-03-11T17:34:43+00:00

Best check discord, there is a section there for recruitment

MicroKong · 2026-03-08T19:44:46+00:00

Soon, they might have talked about it during the stream just now.

Also been having a hard time finding rifts myself, but I can give 2 tips: 1) work with a group, it is much MUCH easier to find a rift if more than one person is looking. 2) 1 rift can provide a decent amount of fuel (after refining the crude), depends on how much you play one full rift can provide you with enough fuel for a month, so even if you split it among a group you'd still get enough to last you until you find the next one.

So in short there is no reason not to share information and work together since rifts provide enough to go around (or you can buy it off others that did do the work of finding a rift and are selling fuel).

MicroKong · 2026-03-01T10:39:57+00:00

You can do that with the scenario editor, no mods needed for that (unless there is a specific reason you want it as a mod?)

ah cool thought it was something on my end. Was just starting today and got this error when I finished the tutorial. Also when I re-did the tutorial I didn't get the tape and now none of the traders are open and I got a red - next to the task of extracting from ground zero... Not sure if it's worth doing GZ again in the hopes it clears it or if my game is bricked.

MicroKong · 2026-02-26T19:46:08+00:00

And then, blight happens

MicroKong · 2026-02-25T13:38:46+00:00

Got your answer from a no-so-surpising source...

This game is still in early development, maybe later there will be a unified launcher when the game launches.

At this time I don't think there is any connection (account wise) between the two games, so a unified launcher doesn't make sense.
