5 years later... Still one of the best elite dangerous videos ever made. o7
Holy shit, it's so intense. And all the sounds of sirens blaring and asteroid dodging makes it even more so.
+Agora2021 Yeah, the audio is always incredible in this game, but the way it all layered in this encounter was something I've never experienced before.
+Isinona You're my idol in this game, I bought the game after watching this video. You gained a subscriber aswell.
Holy heatsink, this is one of your best videos yet! Absolutely tense nail-biting action, wonderful!
+Hjerrick Is that an official ED swear?
Zanite I'd love for it to be! But so far I've only seen one person using it, and it was me..
+Zanite I sure hope so.
+Hjerrick Hahah, holy heatsink. Classic!
+Hjerrick Eat socks is also valid :D
The plucky Diamondback wins out. But it takes a great pilot to keep ahead of a determined bounty hunter. Kudos to CMDR Gazeley, as well.
These videos will be used to train future Starfleet recruits.
Excellent committment to stealth and silent preying.
*Thumbs up*
+Julio Montega Cheers, and thanks also for suggesting that I take up a stealth Diamondback Scout a couple of videos back, that was what inspired me to give it a try and it's been great.
Anytime lad. Up next might be a stealth Federal Assault ship, when you got the funds for it. Another upcoming ship very much to my liking.
This had better be in the next newsletter. Absolutely superb.
+PIK Agreed. Tweet sent to @EliteDangerous Done! ;-)
+GamingwithIan Did it get in?
Once again I feel the anticipation when an Isinona video pops up on my YT feed. Once again I'm not disappointed. Tension, stealth, combat, expert flying and a great narrative. All the hallmarks of a classic Isinona video. Right on Commander o7
its so incredible how he flys between those asteroids without thrusters. there should be shortcuts to power of and on certain modules...
I want them to put the new line-of-sight scanning system from CQC into the main game, making asteroid fields much more interesting to fight in.
+Ross Balmer Me too! I'm told it's something they are very interesting in doing as long as it doesn't break the way the main game works. *fingers crossed*
+Ross Balmer Perhaps they could make it an alternate sensor module with advantages that might make it worth it, like less weight or power consumption, or longer range. Maybe it could scan a whole hell of a lot faster, but needs line of sight at all times. Possibilities, yo.
+Anezay I actually had the same thought a few days ago, like having a passive/visual scanner working as it does in CQC, and the more expensive scanners tracking heat signatures as well. It would make the Silent Running feature even more interesting.
Again your use of "tipping your trackir hat" to make us feel like we are hiding as an example and this attention to detail makes this particulary such a compelling watch and perhaps one of your best. Very good cmdr, once again!
Your videos always get me hype to play the game. I never do, but still. Good stuff.
+Fluffy Meowington His videos are why I bought the game. Full price too which I never do. Frontier owes you a commission, Isinova
+Nebulocity yeah me too. Yesterday I fired it up again for the first time in like 6 months, but as it turns out Frontier or AMD or both have fucked something up so my framerate jumps happily between 250 fps and 15 frames. unplayable. Well ok I give it another 6 months before eventually returning. :(

I've started playing in Empire territory. The strating Eravate/LHS 13337 zones have too many players in them which makes the game super laggy.
+MrMeddyman thats not the problem. I played in solo. The thing is, that something is really buged in Supercruise. When jumping in a system I get about 200 fps while fuel scooping, then I just let it be and change nothing (I stay still (30km/s) and my ship is pointing the same way, so no difference in what to render) and the frames drop out of nowhere to ~20 frames. Then dropping out of SC in normal - frames go up to 200. Reentering SC for a few seconds the frames are still really high and then drop to 20...
but it seems frontier is aware of this issue and it also seems to be a AMD drivers problem.
man your profile picture is really creepy :)
My heart was racing while watching this. Awesome stuff!
Jeez, thats intense!
And one of the best vids ive ever seen for ED. Thats is the expeience they should sell hard. No music. Just breathing, enginesound, computer blips. The written narrations makes it a best seller. Truly great!
Just want to say that your videos are some of, if not the best plays of Elite Dangerous I've seen. They also convinced me to buy the game, and I'm having a lot of fun with it.
Love the way you RP this series.
Truly outstanding video, had me on edge! I would have smacked into an asteroid even trying some of the stuff you did here. The amount of skill you have managing heat, flying assist off, shooting, silent running...it is quite breathtaking to watch - thankyou!
Wow! Like watching a sci fi tv show, where hero is caught behind enemy lines, uses asteroid or nebula to hide the movement as they are being pursued by enemy. This was sick! More of this outsmarting enemy tactful battles please.
+Papo Papo Well more of a pirate, so anti hero?
Holy hell. That was tense! I absolutely love your videos, I think I've watched most of them. I dont have time to play the game myself (even though I own it and the Horizons expansion), so dreaming away and watching what you're able to do is really awesome! Makes it look like a complete, living universe. And god dammit, thank you for not breaking the immersion with voiceover. Just those simple lines of text is just perfect.
Keep doing what you do!
Fly safe and Right On, Commander.
I saw this video few years ago and I forgot to come back to mention: it made me buy this game.
This is more intense than any movie or space games I've seen or played and your comments are just enough to understand what's going on without breaking the immersion. Just neat mate, kudos!
Your best video so far IMHO. Great heat management, great piloting skills. Hats off Commander!
Simply incredible... I'm in awe at the situations you find yourself in and inspired by the way you document your adventures. You could never rehearse or make any of this up! Pure, unadulterated emergent play. Slowly working my way through your archive and hoping you'll continue to release content like this in future. Stay safe, commander o7
That was another cool video, and I'm surprised you managed to inflict that much damage on that Vulture during the short engagment you had.
+Radintoriov That DB maneuverability, never regretted trading in my Cobra
Great video! You actually don't need to stay in silent running the entire time. Just maintain your heat under 20% and that's already considered "Cold" Vultures scanner's wont be able to pick you up beyond 1 km. When you switch on silent running, their detection range goes down to about 500m. You''ll know when silent running has engaged completely after 4 seconds or when you start generating heat, thats when your radiator vents fully close. If they're facing you and you're at a good distance to fall out of their scanner, engage silent running, then close in. Once you open fire, you're automatically revealed so no point in staying silent running. Since you're hull tanking, you can survive most ramming, try using that to your advantage. :)
More videos! Please Mr. Isinona, your videos are amazing! I enjoy every second of them, I'm about to re-watch just about every last video you've made :)
Oh man..
that must be the best piloting I've ever seen..Your FA skills are second to none and the power management & stealth were sublime. Quite Incredible.
+kudos to you brother
This video is just speechless. Well done CMDR o7 Your DBS is a rock star :D
Man, the tension was killing me. ^^ Great video, CMDR.
I'm at best a mediocre pilot, so your piloting skills just leave me in awe.
I just got a chance to watch this. I'm lost for words at how good this video is. I was almost falling off my seat with anticipation from the intensity you manage to convey.
This has been so exciting to watch. I wonder how effective switching to silent running so quickly is though. Good battle. Great watch.
these videos really stress me out.. i actually hold my breath sometimes, it´s great!
I love how you just hang around and try and fight and only leave when the vulture gives up. Most people just boost and FSD to the closest station to cry lol Love your videos!! :D
+Berk Berkinson I just fly behind commanders who haven't chosen a side in the CZ and wait for them to chose the wrong side.
You really get the best out of what this game really has to offer. I don't get to play as much as I would like recently, but I'm going to set aside some hours at the weekend. Flight Assist Off really does change the gameplay a lot.
Hey man, thank you for making these videos! I was inspired by this video to purchase a Diamondback Scout (was using a Vulture but can't afford decent upgrades) and I am loving it! Keep it up!!
Ahhhh... Nerdgasm. I love your sneaky, modul switching style.
Fantastic storytelling and narrative! I love seeing the situations you put yourself into in game and how you adapt.
That was fantastic. Very tense, and an excellent demonstration of superior piloting against a tougher opponent.
You make incredible videos. Not only did they result in me buying Elite but i am flying exclusively with FAoff.
I love it. Though as someone whose played next to no flight sims, lets just say you make it seem easy.
Masterful piece of flying and ship management.
I'd say it's videos like this that are the reason i'm subbed, but all your videos are equally entertaining!
Lol I wish you could make more videos, I love the narrative aspect you have in all of your videos!
Goddamn, this was the most exciting video from E:D I've seen. I didn't want this to end. It may even have convinced me to buy the game. I hope to see more videos like that!
***** Too late. Bought it already :)
+MrGameFan I don't have one yet. I bought the game during the last steam sale when it was discounted, but haven't actually installed it yet. I'll get to it eventually though :)
So amazing to watch your videos. It makes me so sad i cant enjoy the game the way you can, where you dont look at "most effective" ways to do anything, but just do what you enjoy and make yourself part of an amazing story. Keep it up!
Really enjoyed watching this! A great showcase that E:D gameplay can be very intense indeed. And that FA off flying backwards through an asteroidfield and all that, sure takes some skill! Have a tinfoil hat salute: ô7
That was the kind of gameplay they stage at E3 to make the game seem much more glamorous than it is, nice work!
Best piece of combat footage i ever witnessed in Elite... Impressive flyin´
First time watching a pirate at work. A lot of work goes into it, I'm impressed!
Damn impressive flying there, i hope i can become as skilled as you at some point.
Probably one of your best videos so far.
My poor heart can't take this much tension.
One of the best Elite videos ever! Great job!
First time I've watched one of your vids. A-mazing! I seriously need to practice my FA off.
Some day your vids will definitely get me to upgrade my PC and buy that game.
Very enjoyable to watch!
What a great video. Isinona you really know how to show people to create their own gameplay. I was always one to play in solo and occasionally go into open but I think from now on I am going to play in Open only. I am missing out on so much!
Thanks!
Such a great pilot. I'll be recommending you to the Elites.
Well done Sir! Thoroughly enjoyed this one. It was better than the cat and mouse scene in Wrath of Khan.
Very impressive Isinona !
Your head must be cooler than your ship lower temperature to avoid panicking and stay focus just like you did. :D
What an intense battle. Excellent ship management.
Fantastic flying around the asteroids. You really get the best out of E.D :)
Now if you only had some missiles which were working you could really have surprised that Vulture. But missiles is still bad in the game. A shame that Asteroid scenario was the best place for a missile shoot out :) Great video keep them coming.
What a tense fight! Great video, as usual.
That was an awesome duel!!! It was also a good showcase of how well silent running works in PvP, shame it's nowhere near as useful in PvE :(
Excellent piloting! Very impressive.
This was a fantastic video! Gotta give that Vulture pilot some rep for chasing you for so long, but wow you almost shot him down!
Brilliant video. One minute I was giggling away, next I'm biting my nails. I was tilting my head on many occasions as you were hiding behind the asteroids. :)
Had me on the edge of my seat again....nice one, keep them coming!!!
Probably as good an advertisement for this game as you can possibly get. I'm playing since release and I never think to do stuff this cool. I always just high tail it.
Great video! I feel like if the Vulture pilot was running fixed weapons instead of the gimballed loadout they were using, you wouldn't have survived quite as long... This makes me excited to get back to inhabited space from a journey out to the Eagle nebula. I've missed shooting things.
Really digging your videos. As a new player, I find it's easy to fall into the hum-drum of trade routes, RES hunting, and grinding for cash... You illustrate a whole other way to play that has a real challenge to it, which is its own reward. Have you posted any videos/info regarding how you've outfitted your DBS for stealth? I'd love to give this a go.
Great video. The way you fought off that vulture was badass.
this is so epic... u are so epic.!. please come back with more videos!
While it wouldn't have made for a thrilling video you could have easily avoided the whole fight. While the Vulture is a vicious killing machine, it's also quite slow and you could easily have opened the gap by constantly boosting and leaving silent running off once you were 3 kilometers away and out of weapons range.
Also you greatly overestimate the power of silent running. It's fantastic for obfuscating your identity but it isn't invisibility. At the high temperatures you typically operate at you will be still appear as an unresolved contact on other players scanners even when you are kilometers away from them. Most players will dismiss you as a far-away ship and ignore you, but once they know who you are they don't need to track you visually, they just need to follow the blip on their sensors. That's why Gazeley wasn't fooled by your asteroid occlusion tricks once he or she closed to less than 3 km, they could "see" you through the rocks.
I recommend ditching your wake scanner for an extra set of heat-sinks so you'll be better prepared for "emergencies" like this in future.
Oh and congrats on winning that fight. I would have gotten absolutely murdered in your place. :P
Not a single boring moment! Very nice video!
Dude I love the play by play on this.
True tactical fight! One of the best!
Amazing vid as always, quite the showdown.
This video might just get me back in to this game :) Great content dude!
Holy shit. I think your chances in that ship with no shields were 2 to 20 against that Vulture. Can't believe you made it. Nice flying, CMDR.
+MrMeddyman so... one in ten?
Mike Dawson
Simplifying is for pussies
+MrMeddyman i prefer 8 in 80 myself
+MrMeddyman That Vulture was stock. Cmdr Gazley probably just purchased it. I fly a fully-equipped one and now I can 1 v 1 Anacondas. If that Vulture was fully-equipped, the chances would be 1 to 100... but Isonona would probably survive anyway. :P
time to go to sleep- nvm, isinona video!
You are an amazingly good pilot man!
You got lucky this Vulture wasn't one the meta following cmdr: "MORE SHIELD CELL BANK!"
Without shield cell, combat are way more interesting
+Legion711 Vulture with SCBs mean no power for anything else. For PVE hires farming, people pick better thrusters for faster NPC kills. Vultures have major power issues, and getting more than 1 SCB onboard without sacrificing too much is undoable. You'd have to be turning subsystems on and off manually, which is not something you want to be doing in a fight.
spartacus3111 Indeed, but I recall having at least one when I had it, but it is possible that I had basic thruster and shitty scanner.
+Legion711 I love the silent scout build, I havent used shields since the Diamondback Scout was released. I now fight with a stealth viper :)
Legion711 Scanners don't seem to do all that much. I usually just settle for D or E class depending on whether i want to save weight or power.
But yeah, you can't fit good SCBs on an A-spec Vulture.
spartacus3111 I assume gimbal weapon "aim better" with better scanner
Superb flying warrants the Distinguished Flying Medal from the Pilots Federation.
Superb drama warrants a BAFTA.
Your videos are so good. You are my favourite. It's like awesome space story time =)
Great video. Very tense! Loved the end.
amazing stuff as always. So tense!
I loved watching this - nice work
Woohoo! Man these just keep getting better. I haven't got my rig set back up yet, but I'm curious... does CQC allow arranged matches? I think it would be neat to set up an FAoff-only league
That was an incredible show.
awesome flying dude. keep on the good work
This was exhilarating! Great video
The moment they turned back on the atmosphere... Wow.
Huge story in a tiny part of universe.
Great !
This is amazing. Do you ever consider streaming on Twitch or here on YT?
The best elite player I've seen.
Wow, that was an amazing performance.
Very nice flying. Are you playing with one or multiple screens? I was wondering if the TrackIR works well with just one screen then i might buy one.
Wow, amazingly well played.
Another great vid. I wish you had finished him off or at least left him drifting. But well played ! You are indeed brave.
Epic! Just.... epic. Best video yet!
Simply amazing video!
That was amazing, start to finish!
The multicannons knocked out his shield surprisingly quickly, if you ask me. The vulture has TOUGH shields, normally. You could have done a number on that guy.
You truly are an amazing pilot... Do you have any tips fo a newbie on the xbox?
Oh and btw +Isinona, for future reference, try targeting the Vulture's powerplant. They are really weak there! Not sure how much the 1.4 update will influence that though.
