How to start the main mission?

[KopiG]

Okay so I started myg ame. But then what? No mission to start at all? I landed on several stations, scanned several stations already but nothing to do so far. What do I need to do?

You need to run the tutorial about scanning stations then when you scan a station you will find an anomaly that will give you the hq mission its a boron who is working for the split asking you for help.

Yes, it`s interesting and different how the main mission starts. It doesn`t actually give you a main mission; you have to FIND it and you`ll only find it if you do a scan and investigate it. This means you can just wander around for ages before you get any kind of story. this will throw a LOT of people who are used to things being just handed to them.

For me, I love exploring, so just wandered about until I actually decided to try scanning in the Tutorial. Even then It doesn`t seem like a mission until you find yourself wandering into deep space and discovering stuff you didn`t expect.

I like it, cos it doesn`t hold your had, however I know many won`t.
