/edg/ - Elite: Dangerous General

Should i buy this game or Star Citizen?

>>125672426
none of them

get EVE

>>125672426
Definitely Star Citizen.

It's time to get off Braben's wild vision quest.

What's your favorite ship, /edg/?
For me right now it's the Vulture, I've been using it to bounty hunt and it flies like a dream, the only issue is power limits, but you can get around that with clever power groupings.

This man is a traitor. Do not listen to him.

So I've been pirating ships NPC/player and the only real issue i run into is actually getting somewhere to sell the cargo.

I got a fine for having illegal cargo when i was docking with the station and I didn't even get scanned.

>>125671724
>why not
because elite is not an mmo, you don't have thousands of players, you have 30 players in an instance max

it's a singleplayer game where you can meet other people, and that is what the social features should and do support, intimate and direct contact with only those you run into, because as far as you're concerned, nobody else exists

also generally known as mingleplayer

I don't see what clans or larger social features would do for the game other than add forum drama, you can add your friends, see where they are, and go play with them, drop in, drop out, simple, fun

Should I trade in my Type-6 for an Asp?
I'm not really hauling 100+ tons most of the time and I heard that the Asp can do the same and do it better. Plus I use my Type 6 for exploring as well but it's not the best.

>>125675489
No I think i'll stay and trigger you more

>>125673341
The idea is that social features like clans would add depth without any additional input on part of the developers. The game is already online only, every one is already playing in and affecting the same universe, why not leverage that to give players something to do other than grind credits?

Besides the games existing social features are shit, yes you can add friends and play with them but good luck finding those friends in game with the size of the world and instancing. Even if you do have friends, whats the purpose of playing with them? So you can split your bounties and bonds? Or for the tiny bonus to trade. The game really needs a lot more social features considering it's a multiplayer game.

Why is every space game dev made up completely of incompetent jews?
The only space game not based in Isreal is fucking SS13 and that's because the original dev fucked off and made it open source ages ago.

I-
I just want to be alliance and have alliance things to do and alliance things to fly

Is that really so much to ask?

in b4 separate paid Alliance expansion

>>125675836
This.
Winging up is fun but other than fucking around it's far more efficient to just bounty hunt alone, sure you've got double the people but the advantage falls off quick once you can take down condas solo.

>>125676217
It really saddens me that we are a year out and the Alliance has no ranks and no ships, and I'm feddie scum

>>125675728
Definitely. Put some time into an Asp and it's much more efficient.

Of course I didn't buy it for the "Content". I just thought it will be high time for start killing spacedad in rovers and add more salt to whole Horizon roastfest.

>>125679662
I had a feeling that was going to be the case. Whoever is in charge of ship balance in FD is a moron. The ships are all either OP or crap, there's real sidgrades or even anything that's just good in a niche role.

>>125679741

I don't get how so many are so poor, PC gaming isn't that expensive. I still got 25% off Horizons.

Holy shit, i used two A grade shield cells and i instantly jumped to 160% heat, how do i avoid that?

>>125678834
It does have the background sim though, which Fdev already uses to put player made groups in to the game, I'm just saying let players actually control and be part of these groups.

>>125680059
The two are not mutually exclusive.
The problem is FD is trying to balance the game at the wrong extremes of both.
On one hand you're lacking community options that were common in Multiplayer games in the 90's. But on the other hand they're balancing progression in every aspect like this is some Korean MMO.

In other words, FD is killing the game due to incompetence faster than fully catering to either camp would.

>>125682395
There's nothing inherently wrong with clan drama, when Fdev says they want emergent gameplay, guess what, that's what emergent gameplay is, players getting into conflict or cooperating with other players and creating gameplay out of that. At least it would be more interesting than killing the ten thousands faceless NPC or trading between two stations till you lose all will to live, or exploring till you see witchspace in your sleep.

>>125682663
Yeah. Though it's impossible to win against grade-A autists who really tried to "Safeguard" the neighborhood.

Fuck, they failed hard at it. SIRA and CODE took turns to shit on 'em. They don't deserve this.

On the bright side, every kill I make in this system go toward them. Neat.

>>125682971
Yeah Fdev has been doing that as a fan service to forum dad groups for a while now, I was somewhat miffed when the station I keep all my spare ships at was controlled by CONTRAIL.

It's just a meaningless tag for a generic npc faction. Also, superinstanced nature of this game makes clans like that redundant.

>>125687194
>>125687270
Even with D rank parts and the best FSD you'll still only get a max jump range of like 20 ly, which with the Vipers fuel tank will get you all of 2 jumps, if you actually want to go anywhere you're going to need to replace an internal with a spare fuel tank.

>sold my DBS for an Asp Scout

Suffering, truly fucking suffering. Anemic piece of shit sounds like a fucking Honda with a fart can and turns slower than a Type 6.

How much are Class 3 pulse lasers? I wanna get a Vulture soon but I don't wanna be stuck in this garbage scow longer than I have to.

>>125686225

>>125688024

C3 pulse is dirt cheap, like 70k for fixed, 140k for gimball.
You have to afford powerplant and distributor for vulture, tho.

>>125687576
I could only jump 6 or something like that, so anything would be an improvement.
And I just wanted the upgrade so I could follow my friend in his adder.

>>125688267
>You dun goofd.

I know. I was reaching the limits of what the DBS's spaceframe could handle and I figured I could use the Asp Scout as a stepping stone to a Vulture, get a little more headroom out of it.

Power plant on a Vulture's what, 1.5 mil or something? A4 PP on the DBS was about that much, so I imagine a midrange one on a Vulture's prolly that much. Or am I gonna be in for a surprise?

Now, I've turned into a cynical bitter asshole from both playing E:D and reading what gets posted in Frontiers official forums.

>>125689728
I am overexaggerating, the thing's actually pretty nimble for its size, and it's my fault for not equipping the thing proper, just missed my DBS. I could've squeezed a bit more out of 'er but I'd have had to of bought an A4 power plant and a 1.6mil CR power plant on a 500k CR ship just seemed silly.

>>125689679
remember to strip your ship before selling.
You lose 10% on selling a ship including its internals, but you get 100% back on internals and HPs if you sell them seperatly. I hope you did that.

>>125689679
Oh, that'd explain it. Stock is E rated garbage.

I wonder if the exact numbers of pitch yaw and roll are written anywhere. If not, give me a few minutes I'll buy an asp scout and see what the numbers are with A rated thrusters then compare it with an A rated dbs.

Oh boy, those surface missions just keep getting better and better. If I complete around 3000 of these missions I will earn as much as I do when I spend 15 minutes on normal trading.

I'm so glad these missions exists, otherwise you would be forced into some grindy activity (RES / Trade) if you wanted any sort of progression.

>>125693405
It's possible that it has something to do with that Horizons requires 64-bit OS. But that's just my guess.

what you're suggesting won't make it good

>>125694641
I'm not the guy who made the list. I just saw you sperging out about multiplayer threatening your lone wolf imaginary epic. So what would your fixes be? Or do you think the game is perfect already

>>125672585
Is it a fail-on-scan though?

>>125688267
You can run dual pulse on Vulture easy with maybe a rank C or D power plant, you'll just have to skimp on shield boosters/thrusters or other crap.

>>125693934
Nah, they where just greedy, they even made Horizon Early Acces to avoid people complaining and wating refund out of it.

>>125694992
There is multiplayer, but it is not an mmo. I don't know how else to tell it to you.

The point is the game should be fun alone first, and with friends second. Adding mmo features would do nothing for either experience and just pull in the level grinder end raid crowd and dramawhores from other mmos, which is anti-fun.

the things that need to happen is progression is good, i.e. less grinding for the next ship, they're adding more ships and items all the time so that's a positive

mission variety needs to be better, also something that's improving, less "go there" "shoot this guy" "get money" type stuff and more kinds of missions that need to be scripted rather than just paying more for something you could do on your own

the universe also needs to be more locally contextual, which is also something that is improving, powerplay has battles happening that affect the future, that is good

missions that are more clearly related to what is going on and have a more visible effect on the world, stations will give missions to attack their enemies and get resources they need, but it's still fairly basic

and npcs need to be more persistent and more visible from supercruise, so if a battle is happening in real space it will show up on your scanner instead of just being a "signal source", they're improving this too

>>125696027
reasonable, i like it

>>125690158

>>125696027
Some good points, but I'd also add that progression needs to be noticeable in ways other than just your ship. I really hope they allow players to have their own outposts and such, as well as being able to add on to them. Imagine owning your own little house and having your own mining operation.

>>125696737
It's easy, buy any ship you want before Cobra mk III and when you have money to buy Cobra then you are done buying ships.

>it's getting better
Except it's not in any of your examples.

>they're adding more ships and items all the time so that's a positive
Yeah, like the most of the 1.5 ship wich serve only as another rung on a ladder towards an actually good ship. Theya re lazy downgradd clones of existing ships. What items are you talking about? The arsenal is pretty much unchanged since the release.

>mission variety needs to be better, also something that's improving
Improving in what way? All missions in Horizons ae shit and copies of existing spaceborn missions.

>the universe also needs to be more locally contextual, which is also something that is improving, powerplay has battles happening that affect the future, that is good
But Powerplay is an MMO gimmick which you're so against it seems. If you don't participate in it, you won't notice any differences.

Affect the future of what? The only thing they affect are the color blobs on the Powerplay map.

>and npcs need to be more persistent and more visible from supercruise, so if a battle is happening in real space it will show up on your scanner instead of just being a "signal source", they're improving this too
Again, they are improving that where? In your imagination?

MOTHERFUCKER I AM BEING SHOT AT and the FIRST THING you do is SCAN ME?

Game want you to fail SO BAD it is horrible

Don't trust me? go to robigo, take a shitload of smug missions and watch the shitfest as you get interdiction and scan from everywhere to fuck your shit up in not even populated space, that is just a joke

>>125696282
to elaborate, in order of what I assume is easiest to do, I don't know how the engine is set up but it seems reasonable to me

alter "signal source" generation to some clearly identifiable events, they have this to some degree with the wrecks, distress calls, strong source and weak sources but it could be even better

so you could have a number of "mining activity" sources scattered around active rings instead of the resource sites we have now, interdiction battles along pirated trade routes, that sort of thing, get rid of the ambiguous sources entirely, they should show you what is going on in realspace

for missions, look at what they showed early on in the capital battle trailer, you're flying along and get a distress call from a battle that is happening, something scripted like that that you can't just do without a mission for it, something related to what is going on in the universe and the outcome has an effect on it, you could be hired to fight for a faction in a battle, defend against specific attacks, basically the kind of things braben was babbling about in the early kickstarter videos that then turned out to just be onetime community events

use the opportunity to tell smaller scale stories through the missions, the big galnet story is completely irrelevant to the game and offers little context for your actions unless you happen to be near where a community event is happening, this is a great example of mmo mechanics hurting the game rather than helping it

>>125696919
I have no idea what that would accomplish. It's one of those autistic features everyone wants but which really, is exactly the kind of lackluster meaningless thing you lambast them for adding. Unless you want a full economy management sim like X I don't see the point, and that wouldn't be fun anyway.

>>125699557
I believe you anon
I took a mission to find trade data and I'd be interdicted within 5 seconds of entering supercruise. The signal sources never even had a chance to spawn and the faggots were interdicting me.

>>125698917
Speed like that needs to make a comeback.
Viper, both eagles, db scout, courier and sidewinder need to become faster. Give me good light fighters Braben.

Why the FUCK do people even use open play when they combat log?

ALL THOSE LIGHTS appeared few sec after I entered in cruise mode, ALL are related only to me.

look at this shit

LOOK AT THIS

of course lot of them are harmless, but i just FUCKING JUMPED in cruise and all those lights appears, I counted 1 federal system and 2 pirate texts that means fucking 3 random ships just poped up from NOWHERE TO FUCK MY SHIT UP.


want to know the best? MY SHIP WAS FORCED TO SLOW DOWN for no fucking reason, oh wait, SO I COULD GET INTERDICTED. Once I reduced speed I couldn't go up I'm not making that shit up, BAM INTERDICTION

just kill me already

>>125699675

And also there needs to be more noticeable variety in the world.

The way it is now there are basically 4 locations in space, empty space, asteroids, station, and near a star. Only counting the star because it affects heat management because it's still basically empty space.

Stations are completely useless as a location because they are invincible and have super powered defenses. Making stations viable as a place where things can happen would be great. Horizons is leading the way by letting you fight in and around ground bases.

And they're a great place to add variety. Every station is either an outpost or a cylinder. Why not have dedicated shipyards? Pure population centers, agridomes? SImple trade stations possibly connected by a space elevator. Military bases and outposts, refineries. Hollowed out asteroid hideouts, and where the fuck is a rama type megastation?

And give them appropriate capabilities to their type, so you can't just do everything everywhere, but need to find shipyards or trade stations to buy ships, give them a variety of docking ports so every station interior isn't just a clone. This is a lot of artwork.

>>125700786

Btw why there are no station blockades? Like a fed battlecruiser hangs near a lawless station and shoos you away from it.

Those stations even have doors in that airlock thingy ffs.

Imagine a staion is under attack and everyone docked are given a pg quest to defend it. You all fuck off to fight a couple of waves like in a horde shooter while the station closes it's doors and assists you with guns.

Ye.

A CGA color scheme mimics the CGA color palette from early computing which most commonly consisted of cyan, magenta (pink), white, and black in PC games. So having Pink as the secondary color in your HUD's color scheme would be one of the component colors of a CGA color scheme.

>>125707712
You don't need to silent running to sneak into a full station. Place yourself 9km in front of the station's airlock, line yourself up. Now boost, drop a heatsink, drop chaff, at 4km drop an other heatsink and chaff, activate landing gear 3 or 4 seconds before you reach the airlock so you stop. Oh and hope there's nobody entering or leaving while you do this. If you're through the airlock you're all clear.

This does not protect you if you're being chased by a police ship though, they'll still be following you once you reach the station and will tend to appear right where you did. If you win the interdiction minigame, that ship disappears for 10 minutes giving you a window to land.

My "Robigo Express". A thrusters and power distributor so I can outrun npcs and reliably win the interdiction minigame, need to scoop halfway through the run. Made 200million so far since horizons.

>tfw so lazy you make a 10km supercruise jump

>>125699972
In the older games the Eagle could pull like 28g of forward acceleration. Why the fuck is it so slow ED? Shit makes no sense.

I feel like they need to widen the handling difference between the ships. Make the small fighters faster, more agile with stronger lateral thrusters, make the big ships turn slower. Leave a few oddities like the Cobra/Clipper/Cutter being faster than the should be for flavour.

>>125719527
It immediately drops you 8km from the station.

>>125719909
Game is instanced, so even if you flew there in normal space there'd be nothing there.

>>125720014
No I was like 30km from a lores site and I wasn't masslocked so I went to supercruise and jumped for like 10,000 meters.

>>125720005
k

It destroys the station, everyone inside dies, everyone logged off in it will lose their ship and log in to an insurance screen, you instantly gain a 1 billion credit bounty, and then David Braben knocks on your door saying "That wasn't very nice Cmdr Anon!!" while the cops break down your door and send you to jail for the murder of dozens of space dads that all committed suicide because their Cobra insurance is too much.

I mean, nothing happens. Of course, it would be fun if anything else happened but no you just warp through it.

>>125720278
Kinda always wondered what would happen if your emergency disengage failed. From what I've read about FSD space-warping tech, I presume you'd attempt to crunch space until you hit the giant mass and get torn apart instead.

assuming it's a standard issue warp drive the thing you are flying into would warp into your local frame and the collision would occur at whatever relative speeds you had without warp

Should I get a type 7 or an asp? Which one makes money faster. Mind you I'm the beginning level on trading.

>>125721876
Asp. Just start off simple and once you rank up a bit you can come suffer the Robigo circuit with the rest of us

>>125720014
Oddly enough, I think in some circumstances you can switch "locations" while in normal space. This one time I was interdicted by an NPC fairly close to a station and submitted to it. After fighting him for a bit, suddenly the enemy ship dematerializes and my ship retargets the nearby station. The rangefinder reads 999 km.

I figure what happened was that the station was just orbiting and I was in the path so it caught me in its sphere of influence.

Corvette or the neo-FDL.
Shit tier jump range is for the birds. What a horrible "balancing" mechanic.

>>125680075
You have it backwards. The FDL is only now even able to be considered a sidegrade from the python and only for straight combat.

The internals are shit, but fortunately planetary landing is worthless so you don't have to bother with those compartments on one.

>>125723738
You'd think what with all the role-play and imaginary content FD would just implement this already. Perhaps they're waiting on a more robust implementation, like ship names emblazoned on decals for $4.99 each.

And it will be plastic poser helmet default hair tier.

>>125693721
oh shit looks like Elite: Korean Grindfest is earning its name!!!

fucking Ftroop.

>>125724065
God, they will won't they.
Really they need to add a basic level of customisation. Like the vibrant/one-colour skins and ship naming for free. Then add "premium" gold/edgy black/skulls and flames etc. for the fags that like that kind of thing.

>>125724868
I think they mentioned that in one of their vids.
Basically proper hair is hard so they haven't shown anything yet.

>>125696027
they also need to add some fucking scale to the game.

I shouldnt be punished for having a friend helping me shoot pirates. Mining needs to be better. Not just payout, but the whole thing.

I'm not going to buy the shit £40 DLC, is there any way to troll people who have? Like hang around orbit of one of their gay planets they want to land on and blow them out of the sky?

So is smuggling the hot, new way to grind now?

>>125725702
Tell them it's shit on leddit or the gulag. Include prime trigger phrases like "ocean a mile wide and an inch deep" or "so money is EXP in this game?" or "I want to buy an Anaconda before I have a fucking birthday or two"

>>125725702
>Finding actual players in this game

That's impossible outside of a few very specific systems.

Your best bet is to troll traders on planet routes with no route and high gravity. Even 2-3.5g will kill trade ships.

>>125726223
If by new you mean since powerplay was introduce, then yes.

>>125726321
No really I just want to shoot fown Forum dads in their little Cobras with my maxed out Vulture.

I'd like to see mining turn into more of an asteroids type deal. Crack rocks open to see what's inside, and have fewer but richer chunks of ore, so you'll only have to scoop a few times to collect it.

I mean, come on, how can space mining not be asteroids in 3D? It's perfect. You can even have more NPC's show up to add that UFO factor to it.

>>125727293
sounds like fun so obviously Frontier would never do it.

So many 80+ ton smuggling missions that I can't do.

>>125727293
10 bucks says their shitty instancing/matchmaking can't handle it. People already see different things when mining (different minerals, phantom minerals packets etc.). Destructible asteroids would probably make the system fall over instantly.

>>125728515
so youre using that keelback which is a type 6 with less cargo space?


who fucking thought that would be good?

You made me curious, apparently 7 people used the keelback to go to Robigo. 1 guy in a sidewinder.

>>125728829
b-but it can shoot people

After the patch is there any better way to get the bulletin board to refresh other than leaving a station then coming straight back in?

>>125729359
DELETE THIS

>>125729108
That poor sidewinder guy. Can you imagine? You hear there's big money out there in Robigo and head off. It'll only be what, 90 jumps?

>Please fly carefully
How is the Asp Scout anyway, if anyone knows? I was thinking of getting one instead of my Explorer but shipyard did not have any so just got big boy version.

>>125729359
it doesn't refresh then either, didn't seem to for me anyway

just gotta fly to another station or wait

>>125729359
It refreshes itself every 10 minutes.

>>125729969
It's near identical to a Cobra Mk3, Viper Mk4. They all have have roughly the same maneuverability, internals, hardpoints and speed. Cobra Mk3 is faster, Viper Mk4 has better hardpoint placement, Asp Scout has better jump range. But they're fundamentally the same ship.

Oh and an A rated Asp Scout is slighly more maneuverable than an A rated but has a 80m/s lower top speed for both regular and boost, 60mj stronger base shields (200 vs 139)

It's an alright ship that sounds terrible.

Anyone want to grind bounties? Or grind empire ranks?

>>125730949
why would they fill up the same tier so much? why not make ships different?

>>125731174
Sure, why not. You got a system in mind?

There should be a delivery service for your stored ships.
