Massive Massive warning here please pin this or something! There is a gamebreaking bug here with the the den in the wolf system!! If you board an enemy ship, steal it and make it your homeship then go straight too the den. At some point if you go back into your ship or change homeship too the frontier or another ship other that the one you flew to the den with. The game would either teleport you back too new atlantis or everything seems fine and the next time you get back too new atlantis... There will be sections of the ramp at the starport missing the bounty, mission and kiosk board will be missing and overall weird glitched textures. So not quicksave but hard save before even boarding a ship, goes also for stealing ships landing on planets. Right after go too new atlantis too see if the holes are there... if not then continue all good. If the holes are there you need too do the boarding / homeship / wolf system - the den interaction different. I found this out the hard way 70+ hours in been in space forever lvl 34... had too go all the way back too lvl 16 thats where i had a save that wasn't f.ed This is a known bug hopefully this gets fixed soon. Alternatively you could goto porrima III at the red mile and you can sell contraband too the bartender, no scan or anything just like the den.

Spend some time in the flight simulator for some good practice. It definitely improved my space combat. Tip. Use strafing runs at the enemy. Always engines at full power (low and medium speed to pick your target), when they start firing, you start firing and boost during your strafe. boost can break and or stop enemies Missile locks on you..

Okay but how do you fight multiple ships? The compas dial points to enemies in a plane behind you as if they are right next to you. When I corner one, I get shredded by the other two. There are no evasive maneuvers in this game or flares to fire off to disperse enemies scrambling to give chase. I have the speed to get rid of one but I can never interpret where the other is strafing. The radar systems are nonexistent so I’m flying blind. Whoever designed this system needs to be fired.

Q: So after the engines are taken out is the enemy ship still firing on you while you try to dock? Would like a lot more docking details. Like how close do you have to be? If you take the ship does it still have all the damage you just did to you (you did just destroy the engines)? If you take the ship over where does all your cargo on the other ship go? If it transfers what happens if the cargo hold of the ship you took is smaller and can't carry what your currently storing? Same with assigned crew, if you have six, but take a ship that can only have 3, what happened to the other crewmen? If you are just into loot only, is it best to board the ship, kill the crew and loot, then undock and blow the ship up for more EXP and floating loot?

Ok.. this seems much more aimed at brand brand new players. I can’t seem to find anybody talking about combat maneuvers. Basic or otherwise.. and almost nobody even mentions the thrusters.. When you use thrusters you keep all your linear momentum while being able to rotate your ship.. it’s a pretty big deal.

I'm about 10 hours in and honestly, I find it hard to believe that the FPS part of the game can be so fun and the space combat is so terrible. If I encounter more than one ship I'm DOA. I can boost in a direction toward an enemy and try to find them in the HUD to shoot at them, but the ship has no deflectors, flares, or anything to protect me while I fight. It just takes damage and then I explode. I hope when I have a crew they can fire some other weapons for me while I steer. It feels like driving a big rig down a one way street and having to back into a driveway while firing and also getting hit. I sure hope it's just a handicap of the Frontier.

Yes, eng determines how fast your ship goes. So far I've noticed that increasing your weapon systems only helps with recharging ammo but not increasing damage. Upgrading your weapon systems at a merchant is the only way to get stronger weapons and more power capacity. But it will always be hard, so you can only get better or lower the games difficulty
