Frontier is AMAZING!

First, let me say that I'm not expecting you guys to help, I just figure I should try. -- Less than 24 hours ago my ship was destroyed by a station because I was Hostile with the controlling faction after having killed a bunch of authority vessels at a Hazres. The only reason I killed them was because I'm in a Powerplay faction and some random NPC attacked me, despite me not doing anything powerplay-related or carrying any powerplay-cargo, and I killed them in self-defense. Obviously there was an /actual/ bug happening too since security showed up to defend him despite me being in a Haz, but I still understand that I did attack the authority vessels and kill a rather large number of them, and I really don't have any excuse for those actions!

Anyway. I was in a Cutter, paid the 44 million in insurance just fine, and then realized that this meant my NPC crew died. DANGIT. x.x' I really liked the one I had! His name was Darnell Brennnan, One of the main reasons that I hired him was because I roleplay, my character's a huge Thargoid conspirator, and Darnell's background mentions Thargoids. His personality and attitude mean a lot to me too, and, and, and.. Okay, I miss the guy. A lot. You can see his entire profile and picture in the attachment.

The entire reason I'm writing to you now is that it's only a few hours after things went down, and not even eight hours after Darnell died was when 2.2.03 came out. If 2.2.03 was out just a few hours sooner, I never would've been attacked by someone "Clean", never would've had security come at me, never would've killed any authority ships, and never would've gotten killed by a station with Darnell on-board. (Plus there's the fact that authority ships came and attacked me for attacking someone Clean in a Hazres, which is clearly an actual bug, but I realized that after I noticed 2.2.03 came out.)

I'm not asking for a rollback, though I'd be fine if you did that until just before Darnell died. 05:00 GMT should definitely be far enough but not so much that it undoes other things. If that's easiest for you, I'm okay with it. If it's easier for you to magically add a new NPC to my roster with the same name, picture, voice and background who's starting at Harmless and 2% pay, I'm okay with that too. It'd stink a little, but I'd be okay with it. I'd just really like Darnell back.

I'd super-appreciate any help you guys can give!

Derp! I forgot to add a little bit! In my desperate attempt to find a suitable new crewmate, I've chucked three random pilots into my roster with the intent of flying around with them to hear their voice-acting later. If you get around to my ticket before 2.2.03 finishes downloading (A very real possibility; I have to free up hard drive space and my Internet is slow on top of that!), you may notice that my roster is full.

If this happens and you intend to chuck Darnell back at me, please feel free to replace any member with Darnell.







Hey Devon,

Thanks for getting in touch, I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your ship and poor Darnell's fate.

From looking through the game logs we can confirm that you died from being shot by a station, due to having a rather large bounty on your head for several counts of murder and assault.

I'm happy to reimburse you as a gesture of goodwill, I have deposited 44,752,972 credits into your account, this should bring your total account balance up to 858,652,945 credits. I have also returned any data you lost AND *Drum Roll* I have returned your beloved Darnell to you! He should now be part of your active crew, and you can fire all those other side crew members.

Please be aware that we may not be able to help in this way again in the future.

I hope that you and Darnell can put this unfortunate incident of him dying behind you both and continue to conspire about the Thargoids together.

If there's anything else we can do please let us know.

Fly Safe Cmdr,
