#EliteDangerous #NewPlayerGuide
I've noticed there's a lot of new Elite Dangerous players out there - so here's the beginning of an updated series of videos on how to get into the game. This first video isn't so much about how to play the game, but more on *what* to do in the game, which is a question I'm frequently asked.
The in-game tutorials do a decent job of showing the basics. This video gives a broad overview on just *some* of the gameplay / career paths you can take within the game. In upcoming videos, I will give full details on how to approach each career along with the various ways the game can be played
I remember I picked up Elite at the store with no information on the game, other than the info on the box.
My introduction to the game was after a cursory search of UA-cam in which I found one of your guides. I immediately knew I had made a good choice.
I know I wouldn't have stuck around without the YT community, Frontier should really appreciate you.
*Thank you*
I am BRAND new literally fresh out of the turtorial, i searched for newer ones then 2 years or something, this got me learning alot, thanksate
Will there be a chance for you to share your current HUD colors? It's different from your older videos
Thanks so much for all your Elite Dangerous videos. Most of the content you've posted has really enhanced my game experience, please keep them coming!
They need to add a comms channel in-game. So you can actually talk over mic to other ships in the same systems. Instead of needing discord and adding people and all that. Be call if you could request a call to a ship and have seamless communication. Hoping there's something similar and a form of VoIP with Odyssey.
That's actually a great idea They truly need to add proximity chat So when i do Open play and meet other random commanders I can communicate with them 😊👍
good idea. In game bit would be fairly east to do, just have a similar mechanism to requesting docking at a station. Select ship and request communications.
Of course you'd have to have you ship say you're being hailed star trek style :-)
Such an Great idea! Makes you wonder 🤔 why it's not a standard practice in the game it makes so much sense
hell yeah System, Station, Proximity, Private channels
Had to pause at 40 just to remark about how good that intro was.
He’s vids are elite and to competitive content creators he is dangerous
I see what you did there genius
Just about to comment about that!
And for the new players out there, remember you don't have to stick with any one career. I do a little bit of all of them, so always feel free to drift around as your fancies dictate.
We will be drifting around forever at this point.
It’s always nice to change keeps the game fresh
Thanks Folco. I was wondering about that. I envisioned having to start all over on a different account to start a new career.
Most of the careers are pretty much the same; they all boil down to courier. Either your delivering a single item as a courier, delivering cargo as a trader/smuggler, or delivering death as an assassin/mercenary. I try to deliver at least few murders a week, and a few months ago a delivered a regicide!
I'm a space prostitute.
For anybody revisiting this video: Horizons is now part of the base game.... so you can get a lot of content for £4 from Humble Bundle at the moment!
Exploration is still my favourite aspect of the game, there's always something new to find or explore.
For those wanting to learn deep core mining, you will need a Surface Scanner to find locations to mine. You will need a Pulse Wave Scanner to help you find asteroids that have the minerals and prospectors Limpets to make sure. It's hard at first but you eventually start getting an idea. A seismic charge to use on fissures, these will be visible after using prospector limpets. For the charges, after firing a charge a graph will appear on the top right. You want to get in the blue area, once you have done that you will get an Optimal yield message. If you've gone too far into the red disarm your last charge by going into your contacts. The charges can be charged for 3 levels by holding the fire button, I like to fire two at full power and the rest at weakest until I hit optimum yield. After that's done back up before the charges detonate. Once that's done you will need an Abrasion blaster for freeing the minerals. You can scoop it up but I highly suggest using collector limpets to make the process easier. Some of the best minerals to find are Void Opals, Low Temp Diamonds, and Alexandrite. About an hour of mining for these things can net you in 50,000,000-200,000,000 in credits depending where you choose to sell them. The more cargo your ship can carry the better. Avoid all pirates and if you get scanned by anyone except authorities run. If you dont know where to find the tools you need look up "eddb"
would you be willing to teach me a bit about mining in game? im real new so everything you wrote is too much for me lmaooo
I had to go to graduate school to interpret the mechanics of this game.
we need more persistence and interaction with NPC's.
CMDR FOSDYKE the ability to make a persistent base on a planet would be really cool
Игорь Кратоссов yea it’s is pretty awesome. I remember initially playing and getting frustrated Because it was hard. So glad I came back to it and gave it a chance because the game world is amazing.
ED feels terribly lonely. Long stretches in space with no interaction other than a couple of single line comms.
I've always said that it needs far more memorable events and deep NPCS. Think how involved the NPCS are in Skyrim - in my mind, the template for longevity, people are still playing that game, because there are so many secrets and NPCs are so numerous and interesting.
@@laz001 yea, elite is great, but lonely if you venture out of the 'bubble'. 90% of people like to pick sides on the subject im about to talk about, but star citizen is also a great game where I go to fill my social needs, I come back in elite when i want to explore. I don't pick side when it comes to ED and SC, I simply enjoy both as both are great games..... However Star Citizen TO ME, seems to have more long term potential than ED. ED has been pretty much the same for a long time now, they added storys, 'alien ships', and a few new ships here and there along the years, but it hasn't changed much since horizons. What Elite could do to revive my intrest is more meaningful events and actual exploration and invasion of thargoid space, ED has alot of potential that is being wasted at the moment, content droughts are my main issue, there should be new content added quarterly, or bi-quarterly at the very least.
Can you set up bases or run around on planet or the ships?
Damn... Can you imagine, this game was released 1 year after Cyberpunk 2077 was announced???
Sure I can, they're both unfinished games lol. I don't think either deserves the hate they get, but I'm excited to see what they look like in five more years.
@@ossiehalvorson7702 compared to cyberpunk, elite is a complete masterpiece
@@_laryssa It's pretty close to masterpiece level now, especially when Odyssey fully releases, but that's years after release. It wasn't nearly as buggy at release, but it was pretty light on interesting activities and content
Ossie Halvorson All the while you continuously dump money into a time wasting grind fest that will never truly be finished.
@@thelouster5815 I've spent $20 total on it and have gotten around 200 hours so far lmao. Even if it isn't ever finished, I've gotten significantly more than my money's worth.
Just so we're clear, I thought it was finished after Horizons. I'm an OG Elite fan from back when they revolutionized the gaming industry, and I expected a modernized version of that game. That's exactly what we got.
I'm completely new to this game, literally just bought it yesterday. It's currently downloading right now and I'm really really excited about playing this. On PS4 btw.
I've been playing the shit outta it man. Just got my Cobra mk-III last night!
@@isfunctinlbphmt4006 how are you doing now?
Just bought it yesterday and you are the most enjoyable source I have found so far.
Still playing?
Been playing this game for a year. I love it. I'm just lost though. There is so much to learn, but I have so little time.
I stopped playing a few years ago and recently got back into it. It's taken me 3 months to remember everything I knew before.
dan jackson same I played for the anaconda then fell off
Careers? Well you can be a grinder, or a grinder, a grinder, or you can simply grind.
Yeah pretty much dude! Lol
And after grind there is nothing to do more/else
@@SmallKittyPaw The two G's.
Grind or grief
After the grind you explore. Space is big.
What do you expect? To just have everything handed out for free? The game would be pointless. That goes for any game you have to “grind”. I just look at it as playing the game
This is actually exactly what I needed to help me in the game as I'm new to it but really enjoying the bounty hunting system so far. cheers man!
ObsidianAnt, Dec. 2019: "Recently, mining has become the most profitable career..."
FDev, one month later: "Oh yeah? Hold my beer..."

@@prototype8137 Frog
It's still profitable though, 200~500 million/hour It's a lot. I
You can A grade a Conda in one run.
FDev?
@@SenderBudYerGood frontier, the people who made the game.
You should include the game version in the description or title, for search engine optimization and documentation purposes.
Then in a few years when this is inevitably outdated, people can easily distinguish that independently of upload date.
This will be a great series. We are getting new players all the time who ask questions and sometimes a video is the best way to explain something.
I just bought no man's sky but I think this is what I really wanted. Thanks
Another amazing, quality video from OA. Another dozens of comments from people who are so salty that the game isn't a story driven, hand-holding experience. I don't know why half of you even stopped at uninstalling the game, really, you should uninstall UA-cam while you're at it.
Rofl
I've been playing for about a month now and really enjoy watching your video's , I've mined and explored as far as 22k LY out from my home system , Traded too Elite and now am trying the more combat focused missions as well as learning to fly FA off , unfortunatly I have not been able too go open play , every time I have I've been killed outright in ambushes by griefers camping engineers bases or stations so solo is going too be it for awhile until I'm a more capable pilot
If you want to have some interaction, check into some of the larger player groups like Mobius, Hutton Truckers, IPX Wing, Fatherhood Wing and many more. You can play with other players without dealing with murder hobos in open with the private groups.
you should apply to mobius (mobeus?) they are a totally chill server, and there is a slight waiting period.. I believe Obsidian Ant is on this server
Try chatting with the gankers after they blow you up. They're usually happy to give you tips on how to survive the next gank better.
@@cmdrcorkythegreat7345 sounds like a good idea but at the point where I'd spent hours and hours gathering mats for engineering then travelling 15 jumps too get too the engineers base to be blown out of the sky in the no fire zone while landing I dont think I was in the mood for polite conversation , actually my immediate reaction was F this game and a desire too log out
@@gregmay4986 If at first you don't succeed...
About to break back in on Friday. Video is great timing. Have to learn it all over again including voice attack. Cant wait!
Your voice is so calming...
I have only been playing for a short time. Did some courier runs to earn enough for a Hauler. Then some exploration (about 25 systems). Got a Diamondback Explorer and did about 75 more. My current ship is an Asp Explorer, which I outfitted for mining, picked up a handful of void opals, but found it boring so I converted the ship into an exploration build and am about to head out for a while. I am seriously thinking of just running the 'road to riches' until I hit Elite in Exploration and Commerce. I just really like jumping from system to system checking out planets, scooping stars, and moving on.
What’s your rank now?
This video helped a lot. I know a lot of players do surface mining but I'm a deep core miner for life:)
Your voice is like a cup of coffee in a rainy day. I'm so SUBSCRIBING!
If i was to ever start over, I'd take my Sidey and hit the nearest hi-res until I had a couple million credits. Then I'd get the ship with the biggest cargo hold I could afford and set it up for double-painite mining. By the end of the 1st weekend, I'd have enough money for a fully engineered A-rated Anaconda.
I wish they'd remove the current engineering system and just make everything cost more money instead. Would be more of an incentive to start again because unlocking engineers and getting materials is truly the worst grind I've played in any video game
I just picked up the game again after some friends got it. Started from scratch and really put my all into it. After a couple hours I had a Cobra mk. 3 and was going to set it up for mining. I looked up a million tutorials because even though I had the right gear I wasn’t getting the things I wanted. Finally did it right and made my first bit of profit. And after all of that, I just couldn’t do it, I invested so much yet I couldn’t bring myself to haul rocks for the majority of this game. So I set out to become a bounty hunter, I’m aware it makes no money but... it’s just fun. So far that’s what I love most about this game, I can just do a 180 whenever I want without any obstacles in the way. Also I’m well aware that I’m the only one in my group of friends that would be able to handle something like mining anyway so I thought It’d be best if I just hunt with them.
Last night I found a much needed station in the black while exploring in my Beluga and the name of this station was very similar, I'd heard of this name before but as I was docking, a familiar voice could be heard... It was YOUR voice over the radio which made sense why this stations name was so familiar, it's your channel name.
So, did you create this station?
How did you become an actual part of Elite?
I am really interested to know, if you want to share of course.
i just got in to game and i didnt understand what to do. So i watched this video now im more confused.
Yeah, this isn't a beginner's video. It's a rough outline of stuff you might do in the mid game.
The first thing you need to do if you're a new player is to do the starter missions. Then you can do courier data jobs.This will increase your credits pretty slowly but if you can find a station with multiple of these data missions, you can make quite a lot of money. When you have enough money. You can either get a fighter ship to do combat, or a transport/cargo ship to do transport missions.
I've never played Elite. Your videos make me want to give it a try.
Black Eagle you should. And if you are on Xbox hit me up with an invite.
I made my anaconda into a trader/bounty hunter hybrid type of thing (good frame shift drive and decent cargo|good guns, lots of shields, a taipan, lots of armor and an interdictor)
(Btw by trader i mean a cargo freighter so i deliver goods for factions/minor factions)
the illegal seagull nice I have a vulture for combat then I have a keelback for cargo and a diamondback explorer for ground stuff but I’ve just got a fed drop ship and I’m trailing that for a new ground stuff ship
One additional feature, I mean more like an entire new game "feature", is if we as commanders can venture out in those star ports and stroll around the "streets", checking out the different facilities and stores.
I never managed to get into the game, despite many attempts. I could never make decent money and felt I was always grinding things I didn’t enjoy just to try and buy a better ship.
Buy Polymers for 300 Cr and sell it for 8400 Cr. It doesn't get easier than that ;-)
agree 100% the games got huge potential, but it still lacks in major ways.
hour or two void opals mining and you can buy most expensive ship in game ... thats how its easy..
are you playing it in VR, with a flight stick and thruster thing?? cuz thats where its at.. I was like you when i was playing it initally with a game pad on my regular flatscreen monitor... but then i decided to go for it and the oculus was a good price finally , and oh man... also, i bought the hotas tm1000 thrustmaster flight stick and separate thrust thing, and it really feels like you are in a cockpit.. i found that the immersion was the trick that really got me into the game, and keeps me always excited and looking forward to a session. And im not even a really big " simulation" guy
Mining is the quickest way, but it is tedious. Had enough credits in less than a month to get an A-rated Anaconda and Corvette.
My personal favorites have been exploration and data sells, courier runs, commercial trading, and VIP passenger rides.
Finally a serious channel that doesn't do low level comedy. Thanks
I added this to my library when it was free via epic games, just looking to download and try it out now.
Thank for the videos
Very excited for this series! I love elite dangerous in theory but haven't really been able to enjoy it because I have no idea what to do. Bounty hunting in high sec is fun, but don't know how to progress once I find something I like doing.
ah to only be new again to Elite - it is an amazing game and the new players are in for many, many hours of a truly amazing game especially in VR - I would advise them not to chase any goal, keep them in mind but take it slow - it will get very, very grindy and then you will burn out - the game visually is great, it has some good story - it's the things you "have to do" for many of the "goals" in the game such as power ranks, guardian collection, engineering that will ruin it for you pretty quick if you focus on those - take it slow, drink it in - don't worry about fast or you will regret it when you hit that grind wall trying to engineer something or get that rank, it's happened to many of us. As a side note - I really hope Frontier really puts massive effort into making many, many more things to find out there in the massive and beautiful galaxy they created - exploring get all kinda "samey" after awhile and this is something us players who have done most of the bubble stuff could really use to get us to play more - unique finds, I like the recent discovery of a gen ship - why not more things like that or colonies or new elements worth several million credits, or a new life form even if simple - these discoveries could also help fill galnet and create new locations for commanders to visit - just a thought from a player who now avoids elite due to the grind... but to you new guys, especially if you have VR - your in for many treats - soak it all in.
Have u tried to supercharge fsd in VR?
really informative video. Thanks ObsidianAnt! You have a really nice and relaxing voice too thats real clear and easy to understand. ^-^ Keep it up! Your content so far has all been very interesting!
I think ED would greatly benefit to look at the way Death Stranding deals with cargo; being able to manage where you load your cargo and loading it manually in some instances adds a level of immersion that I think ED greatly lacks when it comes to trading.
It’s been a few years. Longing for some time in the black. Making another dip into the game again!
My starter advice is get a cobra and a bounty scanner then go to a asteroid belt in a hi sec system, pick a fight with ship much larger than you, then let the security forces do the heavy lifting.
as a new player, Ive already bein a miner, courier, delivery guy, and now im a bounty hunter. All that in just a week to lol. I can say that new players prob wana stick with courier and delivery till you get the hang of your controls then branch out, it a lil slow but you get a better grasp of the basics faster. And one more thing... DONT TRUST AUTO LAUNCH! It turned the inside of cohelo into a pinball game the last time i used it. Auto dock is fine though
literally just starting this game after never playing all these years, feels like I missed out
I used to play a lot of elite dangerous but stopped playing, all my m8a stopped playing and I just didn’t find it fun on my own, I loved bounty hunting and doing high conflict zones
well its finally cheap enough for me to try, not expecting much tbh, but i can prob get my moneys worth anyways!
Gonna be honest. I'm excited for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey. I'm planning on purchasing the game tonight or tomorrow, and if what is correct on the main website, it should be released in December or January.
Like, just imagine that. Getting kidnapped or something while you're mining or exploring... Or having your ship boarded.
Fantastic video!! Looking forward to the rest of the series👍🏻
Very anxious for this new series! Thanks for your service o7
Hello sir. I would like to thank you for all the great content you have given us. It has all helped me this morning getting to what i thought would be a very difficult goal and that is to discover a planet. But i have done just that this morning. After watching your clips on travelling to Nebula i thought i would take a trip and after only about 600ly out came across three systems with undiscovered planets. Thanks again for all your amazing content. Stay safe cmdr.
Played for an hour and had to refund. The controls were very akward and i never played a space sim that controlled like that. It felt like ice when i would move my cursor around so the ship would be hard to keep steady. Not sure if this was intentional or not but even at 75% off i couldnt force myself to become comfortable with the ship controls.
Since I play in VR, I use an Xbox Controller and it works great
What? Who said you can learn to fly in one hr? Flight assist off - you need much more to be perfect. And you gave up?
@Little Green Spartan I use the Valve Index. As for controller I use the Xbox Elite Controller and controlling ships is pretty easy after getting the hang of it. And it helps that the elite controller can swap out thumbsticks for taller ones and that thumbsticks in general are butter smooth.
Isn't choosing or sticking to any particular career ultimately going to result in you become bored with the game? I think the joy of playing this game is the vast variety of things you can do. I'm speaking from the point of view of someone who's played since Gamma and if I had stuck to any one particular career I wouldn't still be playing.
Might get a resurgence of views on this video now that the game is free on the Epic game store, i'm really excited to play
I wish they would adjust the payouts for the different career paths at least. Squadron finances and passive income generation would go miles to add immersion to the game.
Excellent idea for a new series! Looking forward to more of these.
I have 1 each of the big 3. A courier dedicated to wake scanning and material farming. And a half engineered jumpaconda.
I feel like I can finally start enjoying the game...
I started playing again last night the first time I played this I was completely overwhelmed new that isolation has given me the time I’ve needed to somewhat understand what I need to do from the get go I made my first 100,000 credits from transporting data to nearby stations and keeping in mind of other stations high paying needs I earned 50,000 just by buying tea and coffee and transporting them back to the station that asked for them 27,500 for 2 units of coffee and also transporting of data to the same stations I earned over 100,000 in a matter of 3 hours that also included initial intro tutorial so money can be made pretty quick from the get go also learned the hard way about excess mass
Obsidian you relay outdid yourself it is great and very informative video for new players. outstanding work
Grind....
Troll....
Truth...
@@simondaniel4028 I'm not a troll 2.000 hours here I usually now play pvp in open. Where is the new content. Always the same CG, where are the DLC s? I play the game because it's a master piece in vr but the developers dont develop anything. Last patch was a shit. They didn't tested it already before update it in live... you dont like critics. Go and play in open with instances, are completely broken...
I misread Title as Carriers, thought therye out already! But then was a bit dissapointed that its Careers :D
Still a cool video though!
Fantastic video @ObsidianAnt, one of your best.
In future however, if possible, would you kindly list the songs you use in your videos in the description.
Is carrying VIP passengers around just not a thing anymore? I played a long time ago and seem to recall doing that quite often.
Hey ObAnt! Do we have hired crew in the cockpit yet? It would be really nice to have that small detail added. So...maybe you can use your sway with FDEV to get those crew members in the cockpit. That way when your playing the game you don't feel so lonely in your great big ships!
Nope. I was bounty hunting with an npc in the fighter earlier today.
A midsized Ship for exploration? A hauler is, with engineering, a well suited ship. Ive traveled 167.000 ly with my hauler :-)
Just to have space for things like SRV Bay and AFMU while having better survivability. It's also nice having a bigger fuel scoop for all of those stars you'll be orbiting.
I had a srv, and a afmu in the hauler. Ive made a video from the journey. ;-)
You really need to do audiobooks for Amazon or whoever. Your voice dude... it’s so relaxing. Like a white (I assume) Morgan Freeman.

Hi I have tried this game several times. The latest about 18 months ago. I was being helped by a guy, who was helping me make money by mining. He suggested we join a fleet carrier. However a couple of weeks into this illness kept me away from the game for about three weeks. My helper vanished do to my lack of communication. I have not got the latest DLC Odyssey. So I need to restart my learning curve. I need a joystick profile for the Logitech 3D also a list of keyboard shortcuts. As far as I can tell I am still on the carrier but god knows where. BTW I know many of you will tell me google is my friend, but as you know it can also be very confusing sifting the wheat from the chaff. Thanks in advance.
Beautiful intro👌😍
0:32 Love the music.
My first gameplay was struggling to get out of a port , accidentally firing beam lasers ,then being exploded by other ships ,then in prison. I've pretty stayed away from the game for 2 years
What I remember is that the controls are very complicated ,and not easy.
Also kind of don't like that it's strictly open world. I sort of prefer multiplayer games that offer solo gameplay , because I don't want to be messed with by other people.
So you don't like the game because you completely ignored instructions the game was giving when stating not to fire weapons in a no fire zone, you don't like the controls because you haven't played long enough to bother learning them, and you don't like the fact that the game is "strictly open world but doesn't offer solo gameplay" despite their literally being a Solo-Only Mode as well as Private sessions that allow you to just play with friends and have no interaction with other players..?
In other words, you played the game for 5 minutes, paid no attention to what you were supposed to do, didn't look at the menu's or options available to you at all , and then decided all of your failures were the fault of the game rather than your own levels of incompetence? Brilliant 👍 I've played this game for 3 days having no prior experience with it whatsoever and even I know how ridiculous your comment is.
@@GGMatt you're right ,but I honestly don't care enough to try again.
I just skimmed through your comment ,saw some valid points.
This happened awhile ago ,I don't exactly remember. I don't want to argue ,so you win I guess.
@@sirblue5586 I'm not trying to win, your comment was just one example of numerous comments I see where people judge and base opinions on a game despite having little to no experience with it, and certainly nowhere near enough in order to form an educated opinion on the matter. Similar to those reviews you see on Steam where people completely slander a product and then you see they've played it for 0.7 hours, like, you can't form any sort of opinion during that time so why waste your time doing so and potentially putting other people off from playing a title they might actually enjoy?
My comment was nothing personal towards you, more so a major gripe I have with people who feel the need to express their opinion on literally everything they interact with before even remotely understanding what it is they're dealing with. But anyway, if you have the free time I would highly recommend giving the game another go at some point. Like i said I've only played for 3 days and despite it being very overwhelming at first, I've taken my time with it and now feel very comfortable with the games core mechanics and I'm having an absolute blast. If you enjoy space then I cant imagine for a second why you wouldn't enjoy this, just give it a chance and don't dive too deep until you understand the fundamentals.
I've played a lot of complicated games and mmo games but nothing or this scale this game is crazy. I've been playing for 2 days just trading in the beginner system. Have no idea what to do next
Dude, you sound like a narrator from animal planet
So far I like the passenger board and having a big space cruise ship
Its a shame most of the credit earning methods pay is crap
gavin john Wardle in my opinion bounties and bounty missions should pay so much more
Isn't one enough though when after doing it for a week you can afford everything in the game? Yes, payout balance is balanced by a moron, but money in this game are both easy to get and pointless.
@Gavin Blain i have billions but it would be good if combat payed well my friends quit because combat pay was bad i like some exploration i only went to colonia to get elite in exploration and g4 scb found some nice systems on the way but just neutroned my way back
I played the game nonstop for a week, spent most of the time mining, bought python, then had no idea what to do and haven't played since. I wanna get into it but supercruising ruins it a lot for me
The most confusing part of this game is how on earth the server/lobby/instance system. There are no tutorials for that and I just don’t get it...
This guy sounds like the love child of MysticMeg and that bloke who does the motorbike show on channel 5.
I enjoyed doing those tip-off missions. Instead of careers, I hope we can get out of our ships and run around.
I don't know if its just me, but on console, mining seems to be broken.
You could distinguish between void opal asteroids and other minerals.
Now, you see a VO ping and it's either grandidierite or some other low grade mineral.
Even low temp diamonds scans are garbage.
Didn't expect Sir David Attenborough to narrate this video
Ah, this is much nicer than the weird Dutch guy.
FINALLY ON GAME PASS! DIDNT HAVE TO BUY IT!
Good day. Thanks for the video! I've just bought a copy and spent around 10 hours doing missions and looking at planets and Space stations, getting a feel for the game. I then asked myself: what do I want to do and, more importantly, what for? It seems to me like the game has actually no meaning, no point in playing it other than loving to become rich and driving thorugh space. What is your opinion on "What is the point of this game?" ?
I say this is a game about making your own goals. There isn’t really a main goal like most other games, so you have to make your own goals, like “make it to Beagle Point”, “become a billionaire”, or “get an Anaconda”
Currently my main goal is to build my ASP Explorer for fuel ratting and become a fuel rat.
Finally ran into another player today, before I could send my greeting, he FS out of the system... I only play on open. Found the other player one jump out from Alpha Centari. Been playing for only a couple of months...
Be carefull choosing exploration, i'm at colônia after some time and i'm a elite but now i want to Go back to the bubble tô see the new update stuff but there is só many jumps and o dont want to self destroy
Caio Oliveira I can feel your pain. I just got there myself. I’m a casual gamer and it took me about 5 months! If I self destruct do I not go back to the last station? For me that would be Colonia.
@barbarino god its a anaconda, imagine the cost to transport. Oh well i always thought of getting something new and smaller to be an allround ship
It's not that hard to not kill yourself. Non-sequence stars are tricky but I only died once from those. Besides, making the jump back can mean a lot of credits for exploration.
Shelved ED the moment Frontier announced that the next major update is due sometime during the next geologic age. Certainly no amount of eighty line code entries laughably labelled "updates" will entice me to return. Are those guys getting paid by the hour? If so they are stealing a living.
I just started playing.. I find if you approach somthing like this with some imagination and your gold,
tonight at unsolved mysteries, elite dangerous..
Hey. I just watched this video and can't find the follow-ups.
Btw great video!
Space trucking is my bread and butter.
I just got the game, and I have no idea what to do......... I can fly around and I know how to accept jobs, but that's about it........
Great video
Not played this for so long, since just after engineers release. It it worth another go? I did love this game
Yes if you loved it. Become a Pirate.
If you want to play the game, combat is as fun as ever. If you want to stack credits for credits' sake, you can go mining. If you want to watch UA-cam while playing, there's exploration.
Riddick thanks. I do like the exploration, but I remember it always felt as though there wasn’t anything unique for me to find. I think I will give it another go!
You're actually wrong about PvP having nothing linked to it... If you're half decent you can ARX cap yourself in one day of killing random cmdrs. They also get paid 10 for eating rebuy so everyone gets something. Though that being said, we NEED dedicated PvP content that has a relevant link to the rest of the game.
I feel as though at this point that the BGS is the limiting factor regarding this. Giving Solo it's own galaxy should be implemented, and PG's should have thier capability to effect the BGS SEVERLEY limited.
Something that effects everyone should not be accesible outside of the mode that puts everyone in the same space. As it stands the "For everyone" BGS invalidates itself simply due to this issue. Making real player driven causes only accesible to those who do purely PvE activities. The concept of trying to stomp a PmF from solo, especially when that faction is predominantly a PvP one, is utterly ludicrous and incredibly bias.
Not only that, it makes it nearly impossible to add in PvP content that has any weight whatsoever beause people can just avoid it entirely, which in turn essentially invalidates the career choice of PvP.
Considering that on the platform I've played three years on, the PvPers are by far the most consistent players, it's a little irritating that we have had basically nothing meaningful outside of no more random engineering rolls.
I really did not know Deckard Cain made youtube videos
I remember I got this when it came out and just couldn’t get into it because of the complexity. Started it again yesterday and now it’s all I want to play right now. I’ve got the basics and I am just doing some courier missions. Going to attempt mining next. Any tips ?
thanks brother
I just want to be Han Solo.
There is smuggling, you need a cold ship to get into stations without being scanned, you can either smuggle pirated cargo or illegal cargo (like imperial slaves into federal stations) there are guides out there of you're intrested
This game is so big flying around gives me anxiety
u should play outer wilds
WOW! You should be a voice actor that voice is excellent.
