The mission timer thing is true still so you will have to pick those carefully. bounties are better in this situation and pays A LOT better

They stick till jou hand them in or die

I wonder if they've changed that then. I distinctly remember losing connection somewhere in space let's say supercruising, and when I logged in again I was docked in the station.

Yeah, the bounties stick with you until you die. I actually just meant that the quest timers keep on running even if you've logged out.

Somewhere between wings and powerplay. I stopped playing because of annoying supercruise FPS drop that forced me into playing solo when I didn't necessarily want to and I've been waiting for a definite confirmation that the issue has been fixed before trying it out again. Unfortunately I've received many messages that the issue has been fixed and shortly thereafter new people complaining about it again etc.

Yeah, I lot has been reworked since 1.2 or was it 1.3.

Anywho, you should really give it another go. I've been thoroughly enjoying every minute of it. And as you know, I too have had it since launch in 2014.

Since Horizons, I'm sitting on around 80 hours.

It is in the queue to be played again at some point. Will have to synchronize it with my wingman though :)

I think you just had some bad luck. Its always kept your current location when you log out. Deep space exploration would be a pain otherwise.

Do you have an AMD gpu?

Nope.

Bounties is the best and easiest way to make money. Find a system with normal resource extraction point. Get in it, wait for cops to shoot stuff, you start shooting the cops targets, score.

There is a neat trick too: each res point has 3 wave types: small ships, large ships and large+small ships. Every time you log out and in, it clears the "instance" and resets to one of those 3. Do this until you find the big ship spawn, shoot cop targets, dont get too close and get 100K or so per kill. Its also good fun with buddies.
