Teladi sector auction.

Post by Net-FX » Sun, 18. Mar 07, 02:07

Help.

I've got the money, I've completed the plot [incl Bali Gi missions]. I've got my new player HQ, all I need is my own sector to deploy it [along with whatever ever other factories I see fit to deposit there] only, upon scouring the BBS's, all I see is the

Show
Blah blah.... tension rises... latest offer 390,000,000... expect more updates as more offers come through...
Er, How, where, when can *I* bid on this new sector myself?

Also, where IS this new sector please?

These forums are GREAT only the information stored here is VAST and, even with the old search options, there's still WAY too much to trawl through [and I've spent the last day doing so... but, apologies if this thread has been covered elsewhere.

Also, just like to say, Egosoft is a top company... with support, updates and more besides, shame there aren't any more developers equally as committed to their releases.

Finally, thanks also to all the modders, scripters and fans for keeping this game unendingly limitless... we've come a long way from Elite :)

Thanks again...

Just wait a few more game days, the auction will become available to you then.

It's the Unknown Sector next to Montelaar. The name gets changed to Avarice sometime after it gets discovered.

The sector is between Montelaar and New Income, just below Akeela's Beakon near the center of the universe. Its currently called an Unknown sector.

Cant help with the auction itself, as I havent yet done this myself. There are however, numerous threads about the auction here if you search for them.

I bought it for 263mil - At the time I was alot smaller and had to empty every factory of its credits in order to pay for it. But now I think, "I got it for 263mil!"

So it was worth it.

When the bidding gets to 615 million credits, you will receive a message inviting you to bid.

That bid (if you accept) may or may not win the auction. If you win, you will get a message telling you to dock in Avarice. If you don't win, you'll get a message giving you the option to make another bid. The amount you can bid will be fixed, so if you have the money and intend to buy the sector, it's just a case of agreeing to the bids selected by the game until you win.

I believe people have won with the initial bid of 615 million, but others have ended up paying 900+ million.

You can reload a save game if you lose, but the message takes quite a while to come through, so you may lose more by restarting than by increasing your bid.

Once you have brought that sector, the teladi will have tricked you into spending 615+mill. You will see.
