So as the title says. I play Elite Dangerous in VR (started from late March 2021) with Horizons and I've mostly done cargo missions/courier & passenger jobs to reach 75 million credits. So after buying a Type 9 ship, I ended up being very disappointed in what I paid for (sluggish, issues carrying 300+ cargo etc), and felt happier using my Type 7 ship, so I want to change up what I can do in Elite Dangerous. I want to break the cycle and really enter the next stage of being dedicated to the game.
I have so far:
1) Boosted up my exploration & cargo rank
2) Joined a Squadrons, they are friendly but not too active, so I can't rely on doing exciting jobs for them
3) If I sell my Type 9, I can get 75 million credits, so I have that for any suggestions what to do with the money for a new ship or objective
4) Played the Arena, but I didn't like it so that's out of the question.
I have not yet: (but I really want something more simple to do than do these)
1) Started Engineering, of any kind. Feels like I have to get meta alloys for Felicity only for now
2) Found Aliens – I can look up a guide, but I would like to know where to get started without being spoilt.
3) Explored deep into space, I'm too afraid to go out there without the right equipment
4) Sol permit – Seems too difficult/tedious to pull off
I've barely touched:
1) Mining – I've only done laser mining, but felt it was too dull (even for the money worth)
2) Fighting – I'm not the best fighter, I am slowly practising but I struggle to fight to a decent standard.
So yeah, suggest me please. I was thinking about doing a community goal, so any tips would be great where to get started with the basis of these missions.
