Been busy with WoW news, that I have to push out news coming from 21,000 light years from home. Tomorrow, we launch from WP8. Well, most of us do. Some have already ‘completed’ the expedition, while others have already been to Jaques to sell their expensive exploration data.<\/p>\n
With the 2.2 patch coming out this Tuesday, this is good news for us still heading towards the core. Having less plot lag to get to our legs is all good. Plus, seeing the beauty of Neutron Stars and their ‘FSD Superhighway’ potential, will increase their value (not financially, sadly).<\/p>\n
As for me of tomorrow, I had debated of selling my data once I reach Jaques. But I’ve chosen to wait ’till I eventually get back to the bubble sometime next year. It’ll mean an even bigger payout. Plus, you know me..I don’t even care<\/em> about credits anymore, since I got my ‘Conda. Once I eventually get back to the bubble, I still want to try and get the Sol permit. I would have had it if I hadn’t ran out of time before the launch. Didn’t have enough time to switch back to my tradeconda build to do the delivery.<\/p>\n . But as for that nearly 10g monstrosity? … Ehh, I’ll respectfully pass. I’ll still watch, though. The person doing the event says the winner will win a paint pack of their choice. Heh. Unless the person gives a badge that you could see ingame that says “I survived landing on a 9.90g planet and all I got was this lousy badge”, then it would be worth it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Been busy with WoW news, that I have to push out news coming from 21,000 light years from home.

\nThat tune could change, depending on how much the fighter bay is (and buying fighters and hiring pilots). I personally hope these new fighters will replace how annoying (and buggy) SRVs are when in a high loaded instance of CMDRs. Plus, to use them as scout ships for areas my ‘Conda is too fat to traverse (such as pinpointing LZs, or POIs).
\nPlus, if I sold the data there, I would lose the chance of selling it to the Engineers back in the bubble (and eventually unlocking the others). This is the only way to ‘undo my fuckup’ (sort of speak) of selling my data of the ole CNE route to the wrong Engineer.<\/p>\n
\nOh yes! I almost forgot. While in Jaques, a challenge has been issued. And that challenge is to go to the ‘KYLOALKS DL-Y G17 IV’ system and land on a planet as fast as you can without crashing.
\nSo you might say “Pfft.. really? That’s it?!” The catch is, this is nearly a 10g planet. Yes. Crushing gravity. It’s 9.90g. That is INSANE! That is twice as strong as the highest g planet (Arcunam 3 or something like that). WP9 is going to be 1.52g, and that’s going to be tricky to land (let alone pinpoint the LZ). But I feel as long as I keep my bottom facing the ground at all times (where my strongest thrusters are), I should be fine.
\nJust put full pips on SYS while landing to keep my shields (and hull) intact when landing. I can do it. I have faith in my CMDR abilities.<\/p>\n
