Release - Discovery 4.91: Pyres of Remembrance

[Hoss]

I just tested out the PScrap field in Bering. It's pretty good, actually - Even in a Wrecker, it feels nearly as good as the field in Texas, except now you don't have to worry about radiation damage and constant nebula lightning flashes (which gave me a massive headache). Junkers are by default a neutral party in the first place, so I wouldn't imagine the Unioners or Seperatists giving you too much hassle, if all you stick to is the PScrap as opposed to the Military Salvage. Vulk mined in a Collector, which had even better yields since it's a snub, and more hardpoints for mining than a Wrecker (A CSF would work nearly as well for team mining).

The Congress is still neutral in the Bering conflict, which may or may not influence independent Junkers being treated as neutral within Bering, as well.

The radiation damage was never an issue - so long as you could dock at the Spire which offers 'free' repairs. Yet another way in which the value of the Spire to players has been critically undermined. And armour boosted Wreckers and Sallys are especially suited to the Pequena Negra, with smaller ships entering at their peril. A fantastic pvp environment, potentially anyway. We used to have Xenos and even Nomads passing by... Another superbly realistic aspect of the game lost to this update. For me the cloud is beautiful and atmospheric, but there you go. As for Bering, you can't fit a square peg into a round hole: it's just not a Junker system. That's my ten cents anyway and I hope the devs reconsider.
