Hehe I will try to least play a little before the end of the year, taking 2wks off at xmas since I can't go to the Philippines because of the stupid virus so I have to burn my vacation or loose it .... so I am hoping to get a little gaming time in with the PC then.
You will know when I start because I will probably post some newb pics of my accomplishments or failures

Elite 3 not canon? <sniggers> An alliance with the gooks? I liked the heat-map of the Galaxy - still mostly unexplored, eh?
I read somewhere that FD had drastically reduced the number of interdictions. Is that true, Geraldine? There were always far too many, one of the things I disliked about it. But the flight model was beautiful, FA on or off, and landing on outposts was sweet!

Difficult for me to comment on interdictions (IDCs) as I am presently well over 25,000 LYs out from the Bubble. When I was last there it depended on the security level of the system, what, if any, allegiances you had, if you had cargo, more IDCs if valuable cargo, and if you were on a mission. Some missions could take you to multiple systems and ships would be sent out to stop you. There were times I was constantly hounded across space.
EDIT: Mind you, that's what mine launchers are for.

Yeah I laughed when I saw that announcement because it was like a week after I bought it :) But I like steam better and they have achievements too. Hope during xmas holiday to give it a spin because I am off for 2wks, I need to finish up Rebel Galaxy first :)

That's the breaks D1. You could always get a free alt account? Sometimes these can come in handy.
