Hi guys
Thought ,perhaps, a returning older player may make a few remarks.

When i played before the server was way busier than it is now so i see the effort in trying to encourage new players to join a fantastic, if perhaps frustrating, endevour.
Some folks will remember me as a Bretonian player who ran Gateway for a time, a BAF, QCP and shhhhhh, Phantoms Smile player as well.

About a month ago i rejoined the server and started from scratch to get the feel of it again as the server has gone through a big change since i was last on.
So here a few thoughts on what i think a new player here needs.

1, They need to have ran through the campaign so that a new Disco player has a good idea of the story and the mechanics of the game. Granted it can be difficult for someone to download and play with Windows 10 not really letting the older games run, pesky Microsoft, so perhaps a story board on the website?
2. Player interaction can be difficult. This could be down to numbers online at any time but in my time back online i have been pirated twice. Once ,very well, in T23 by a Nomad and once very badly in the omegas. I have, true to form, passed the occasional insult to passing Bowex ships, sorry jammi Smile , but got very little in return. Can we turn off the function that allows you to see who is where on the nav map? Keep it only in the system that you are in so that may allow more player interaction instead of avoiding players.

These are a couple of thoughts i had and i have a few more but these are more like gripes and this thread isnt the place for those.

See you all on the trade lanes.
