    LYRICS
    There's a light in the night, and it wont go out,
    Now I found you,
    There's a heat so close, that I never feel cold
    Now I found you,
    I was alone out in the dark
    Then I saw hollow squares
    All around oh oh
    Now the com's call my name every night now I found you in the depths gazing brightly at the neutron star
    We share the feels scooping jet cones leaping to the edges of the night
    Oh Oh
    I was alone out in the dark
    Then I saw hollow squares
    all around oh oh
    I was alone out in the dark
    heaven was, heaven was
    all around oh oh
    lets jump together, lets jump together
    Together together together
    See the drives blink oh everyone's a soul
    On a new path on a brave line
    Feel the engines roar lets engage it all
    Feel the new ride as we all intwine
    Lets jump lets jump together

    This reminds me of a truly rag-tag band of space-crazed independent Commanders jumping 30kLY together. I remember eagerly waiting for 5 o'clock to roll around and the stream to start. The next two hours were spent in shared mundanity (is that even a word?), yet sharing in the mundane made it enjoyable. Of all the time spent in this game, the brightest memories are when we Jumped Together...

I'm talking with Dr. Kaii to see if he will still let me get my emblem and certificate for the expedition since I made it to waypoint 3 at least. I really want to print out the certificate and put it in a frame with my dw2 patch I bought. He hasn't responded to my email yet :( , hoping he will soon. Love your vids btw.

      Oh man I have a 6yr old son and it’s definitely a challenge to get any game time in those early years. Your wife will need loads of help and any free time is a welcomed nap time for you guys I’m sure!
      But it’s going to be awesome when he gets older and plays games beside you. It’s really incredible to play next to my son on coop games like Minecraft or elite. We wish you and your family ALL the best! Have a great time with the little one and celebrate all the little victories that come with parenting because you deserve them ;)

    I Imagined that this song would be the end of Elite Dangerous. All players gather in 1 system, choose their own system for the jump, or one that Frontier Developments will advise. Some may follow the others and each of them goes to their own future of this wonderful game. Everyone is jumping. At the moment of the jump, they are thrown into the main menu, the Frontiers close the servers for an indefinite period and in the future they could possibly present a new sequel to the Elite Dangerous, which will become known to the whole world and possibly absolutely win the competition of Star Citizen ..

      @Gxldyy 10 місяців тому

      @@WereWolfNights I always hope for the best, that the game will live as long as possible. Someone says that Elite Dangerous is already dead, but while the game is releasing new news on the galnet, some updates, patches, whenever anyone plays the game, and according to only one Steam Charts, there are players in the game 3 thousand each, then we can assume that, taking into account online and through other official stores where the game was purchased, there may still be the same amount. But one thing I will say for sure is that no matter what condition it is in, no matter how online it falls, about a thousand people will play it, regardless of its condition. Yes, there will not always be such an online presence when something really bad happens to the game that means the game is over, but at some moments, the online will reach that same thousand people who would decide to go into the game for some reason. some nostalgia, etc. And the number of people who will be in the game for a very long time, regardless of innovations, etc., whether they exist or not, then they just like to play it, are in it, and it doesn’t matter what the game has there will be no updates, for example. After all, they will continue to play it anyway, because they are devoted to it and for some it is, consider it, a second life. In the end, I really hope for this game that it will live, there will be normal updates, a lot of unexpected plot twists, etc. From some people I have a couple of information that after the failure of a new game from this studio, which is associated with Warhammer, as well as F1 Manager, Frontiers will “really” take on Elite Dangerous. The source is unknown to me, unfortunately. And also on Twitter, some Chief Designer of the game Elite Dangerous announced his dismissal, but also wrote that he was working with the team on something very large-scale that has ever been in the game or so and needs to wait for the 18th update. These words at the same time interested me very much, but also saddened me that a person with such a position would soon leave the game. As for who he works and his position, I haven’t personally checked, but this is information from someone who also saw this post live. In general, I wish the game all the best, I really hope that ED will never die, I’m really looking forward to the 18th update and the moment with which the online in the game will increase exponentially and the support for the game will be absolutely constant, so that the updates will have a lot of innovations, and not like now. Some kind of Thargoid nonsense, for which, although I am a fan, I understand that living on the innovations that are associated with them is wrong. Updates should be distributed to the entire part of the players, and not just a narrow one. But now there are some prerequisites that there will also be Guardians in the plot. This may also attract some of the players, but not the entire community, which may not like this alien theme. In short, we wait, watch, hope for the best. Goodbye.

    Absolutely awesome! Loved the song that my friend ToCoSo made but now seeing the video with it! Love this community and the collaboration of so many Cmdrs being magically put together by Ghost Giraffe's expertise. Possibly my most love ED vid ever! ő7

    Thanks for the video @Ghost Giraffe! This was a delightfully inspiring way to start my day... Prompted me to write this little poem.
    A Boy’s Reach
    Space, the final frontier
    When I was a little boy
    All I could think about was space
    What’s it like out there?
    How can I see it?
    Will I ever be able to reach it?
    Space, the final frontier
    This phrase would echo through my mind
    Like the call of a lost dog
    But there’s nothing like the night sky
    To fill that little boy back up inside
    And make him feel like we belong
    In a universe of stars
    Dancing to a silent song
    And such dark matter, ever present
    Washed away by the light of the night
    Ignited by a curiosity burning
    We stare at the heavens
    Across a distance to vast to comprehend
    Does anything stare back at us?
    Space, the infinite frontier
    Now we are just beginning here
    On this tiny planet, we ride
    And one day soon we may
    Reach beyond our sky
    Of this I’m sure
    That boy inside
    He’ll give it his best try
    And so will I...

      Ghost Giraffe You as well sir!! Thank you for all the work you and your team does, I seriously couldn’t thank you guys enough. I am the “combat master” and explorer, my other buds are combative traders if that’s the right words. Its funny, I’m with the Federation, and my other buds sides with either the Empire or Alliance, we get into “fights” all the time lmfao. But seriously thank you, I can’t thank you and your team enough.

    Wish I knew 3 months before distant worlds 2 was gonna happen, to compensate for the fsd grind.

    • @vanderaj
      @vanderaj 5 років тому

      You can do it! The mats collection was the hardest part for the FSD grind. Plus indecisive on which jumping ship to bring meant I had to engineer three times. The Guardian FSD booster took me a morning and two trips because I forgot to pack a medium ship with point defense installed on top. Although it’s too late to sign up, you can get to the current waypoint using the neutron highway in about a solid week or two of play, assuming a few thousand light years per day. I’m running behind everyone else because of an extended work trip, and I’ve caught up 22 kLy in those two weeks, not playing generally Monday-Friday as my $dayjob is pretty demanding.
