Sup, everyone.

I'd like to share my experience with the exploration side of 5.1 so far. Before I get into it, I'd like to clarify that I have flown through numerous systems, without any pointers and hints as to where any new content is. To my surprise, some stuff is hidden and not shown anywhere else. I haven't been to every corner of the game, though what I have found so far has told me that there's more to look forward to. The biggest advice that I can pass along is to fly around and really take notice of the environment. In some cases, certain rocks, asteroids, formations are intended to be... followed, let's say. May lead you to someplace fancy. I want to share the handful of systems I have found some particularly juicy discoveries in, instead I will share with you a piece from Tau-23:

Stuff like this is nice to see. It may not have crazy loot, but it does fill in the space a bit. Just to tease you further, there's an even crazier model formation with cool lighting effects in the system. Outside the Taus, found some cool stuff in two of the Omicron Systems and I intend to fly around more and see what else I can discover. I know a lot of you like your PVP and silent trading, making money and the like, but there's some proper cool stuff you can find in regular systems that don't require you to wait for the next Uncharted system to go "wow that's cool".

On a side note, Omega-58 was made way too easy with the inclusion of a certain base. I'd ask to remove it, but that's just me. Or turn off conn access. Either / or. Otherwise, fantastic system to explore and fly around in. Real dangerous and interesting to look at with the scenery.

Fly around, visit the bars, follow rumors, get hints, and see for yourself what's outside the navmap of some systems. You'd be surprised. Suppose this is more of an appreciation piece, to thank the systems devs. They do put a lot of work into hiding these cool things. As I've had a good chance myself to slap stuff together and have it successfully be put into the game, it's good to sorta pay it back in a way by finding the content they likely thought we'd never find.

So please, if you all haven't made the time to try, get a FL ID'd freighter, slap the 550 engine on it and go crazy.

Guess that's it from me.
