Keyboard mouse here.
Can't complain, alot of button bashing. However it is recommended you do the training from start to finish so you get the just of it.

It's like any other solo game, there are bots around doing pretty much what everyone else was doing, some are smart some are stupid.

Some of them even caused the markets to crash, that's why the patched alot lately.

I joined a crew and so far there is pretty much no incentive for doing group stuff. ED does not have any features (for e.g. as a clan go do X). So at the moment we plan what we wanna do, like stay within a 300 ly distance from one another.
We are currently looking at doing a mining crew expedition. But it doesnt seem appealing cause you cant really transfer credits or pledge credits towards the clan funds.

Yes, and the lack of multi-player features.

I've cleaned everything, tried the data file but it's still not working. :( Would appreciate info regarding your workaround please. Thanks in advance. :)

I'm CMDR njardus, if anyone wants to meet up in world. Loving this game.

We are currently located at the Wohler station in the Kreimann system. It's quite close to SOL and roughly centre between the two spawn points, if somebody wants to join us. The station has a blackmarket and a shipyard (90% sure about SY). It will probably be our base of operation.

Just curious, been watching a few more videos and reading a bit more about this game.

How do the financial markets work, like trading and so forth. Is it a dynamic market where other people actions and what what would affect the prices of commodities?
