    400 Billion Star Systems. Infinite Freedom. Blaze Your Own Trail
    In the year 3300, across the vast expanse of an epic, full-scale recreation of our Milky Way, interstellar rivalries flare as galactic superpowers fight proxy wars.
    Some may know you as an ally; others will call you a pirate, a bounty hunter, a smuggler, an explorer, an assassin, a hero... Fly alone or with friends, fight for a cause or go it alone; your actions change the galaxy around you in an ever unfolding story.
    Elite: Dangerous is the latest installment of the seminal open-world, go-anywhere, do anything space game which, since the first game launched in 1984 has spawned and inspired a long tradition of open world and space games.
    But it started with Elite by Ian Bell and David Braben - one of the most successful games of all times. In the 1990s, David Braben created the sequels Frontier: Elite II and Frontier: First Encounters (Elite III), which were famous for introducing realistic 1:1 scale, dynamic star systems and seamless freeform landings on 1:1 scale planets.

    Probably one of the best tutorials i've watched for a game, explained everything step by step and didn't assume i knew how to do stuff in between. (like how to access cargo and set fire groups.) Thank you.

    I'm probably super late to the party but I was surprised to hear your voice in the obsidian port in MIAI when I went on my first 'long range' expedition (long range being a relative term here), it was awesome. Thanks for all the great advise btw, I have gotten my ASP explorer fitted to core mine with sub surface missiles too, looking forward to cashing in some big bucks finally.

    I have the Asp Explorer after a fair bit of trading. I made Merchant Rank and I've only been playing 4 days :)
    I think I'm going with a 6 bin refinery, class A collection limpets, and a DSS.
    I'm very happy, since my last ship was the Cobra Mk 3, I've been able to add a mining laser to my original hardpoint setup as well as one more multicannon since the Asp has 4 small and 2 medium hardpoints.

    • @AntiOhm
      @AntiOhm 7 років тому

      An ASP Explorer is actually what is use when in a wing for mining and a Type 7 for solo. If you overcharged your powerplant you can easily run A-rated with a decent setup for mining and about 76 cargo slots in the ASP.

    Hey Obsidian Ant. I have enjoyed your Elite Dangerous tutorials very much. I was woundering if you would like to make an updated tutorial for mining now that collector limpets (drones) are available to use so you don´t have to scoop the ore manually ?

      150 light years is nothing. I can travel that far in less than ten minutes.

      ***** I had a mission to find 1 Painite but it expired in 30 minutes when I originally wrote that. I'm there now docked for the night. I'll go explore the belts tomorrow and hopefully find some Painite. One of the stations in that system wants 2,000+ tons so hopefully I'll make a small fortune.
      Thanks for the other system I'll have to check it out too.

    • @amanofnoreputation2164

  • @antduude
    @antduude 9 років тому

    Well done, Ant. Lots of small details about mining I had no idea of. Question: Does the game make any effort to explain the differences in equipment ratings(other than price)? When outfitting a ship, how to you determine what is actually useful, i.e. power draw, distribution, firepower, storage, etc? Not just for mining but for *any* setup?

    • @ObsidianAnt
      @ObsidianAnt  9 років тому

      It depends upon what you want, but the game isn't very good at explaining. For a combat ship you will want high firepower, but also very low power draw - which allows you to keep firing those guns. For an exploration and trading ship you will want to go for modules that have the lowest possible mass, as this will increase your jump distance. Mining ships don't matter too much either way, but a lowish power draw helps keep the ship cooler.

    • @sinephase
      @sinephase 9 років тому

      The game doesn't explain anything at all regarding the ratings. One thing that makes no sense is you can see a down arrow for comparison with a module you're replacing even though they have the same rating or stat, like two A grade modules should be the same, right? I've seen them show an up or down arrow for comparison, even though they're apparently the same. Likewise for a stat that uses "pips", comparing two modules that have say two pips for a stat, could have an up or down arrow even though they appear the same.

    • @0lemus0lent05
      @0lemus0lent05 9 років тому

      sinephase when selecting parts from the store, select compare and it will show up your installed part next to the part you are looking at.
      Also parts have grades AND classes, so you might have looked at grade A part thats lower in class (smaller module)

  • @AntiOhm
    @AntiOhm 7 років тому

    I have not seen the tip listed below or stated in the video with the changes to AI. If you drop into a ring/ asteroid belt with an empty cargo hold or only carrying limpets and are scanned by an AI, don't panic. They will be uninterested in your cargo and leave you alone. As far as I know once that is done you will not be bothered again by anymore NPCS.

  • @Nappa231
    @Nappa231 8 років тому

    Hi ObsidianAnt. Has there been any word from frontier that they will work on the quality of life problems that plague the mining system right now? I picked up this game after watching this video about mining as i have always enjoyed the concept of space mining. After months of frustrations with the issues in the mining system i have shelved the game in hopes that the devs would fix it. It seems, however, they are more focused now on Horizons. Mining feels like it was an after thought and had a quick implementation with no plans on a re-visit. I understand you enjoy this game mostly for is exploratory value. Still, your insight on how the mining system could be improved would make for a welcomed video; as would a new tutorial on the limpet system and keeping track of the rocks that have already been mined.
