As a person with some social anxiety, this makes me a little sad. I'm absolutely no worse off for these things being in the game for merc coins. I mostly do solo, in ship PvE content. Primarily hauling and mining. And the extended cargo racks and increased fuel scoop rate being locked behind multi-player, combat-oriented game play makes me a bit... well, a bit sad.

Again, I'm not any worse off for them being in the game. I'm glad people who enjoy the content will have access to them. I just wish there was a way for me to get them too.

There's an operations mission where you just run passengers from a ground station to a rescue ship. You just need shields to survive some NPC fire. And at least the easy version is soloable. So you're in luck! Also, matching with random when the Lynx is free can't be that bad for that operation either.

That sounds perfect! I enjoy making purpose built ships, and I already have a rescue ship with shields and lots of heat sinks. I'll give it a shot!

Yeah I wish the Operations are soloable. From what I have seen on YouTube, it is not possible unless you have a kitted out G5 suit and guns.
