What's VISION?

>>148917628
>buying a GOG game
>buying a game without DRM
>buying a single player game
>not giving NMS the impending day one pirate bay preorder

>>148917807
I can afford it. Like I said, only if it really looks good. Which from the trailers so far, not seeing it.

>>148918012
>buying a game where they implied you'd be able to see other players if by some god-given miracle you ever encountered one but never actually built in functional multiplayer infrastructure beyond sharing of individuals names who found shit first functionally turning their assertions into outright lies

boy will it be sweet to steal from those beta nu-male cuck devs.

>>148917805

Braben, our britcuck overlord and master games maker, has a 10 year plan to make Elite: Dadgerous great (again). This plan is concocted and made up of his VISION for the game.

His VISION sees all, us all, and all we do. If you feel influence by the VISION, check up on your wife. She may be fucking another man.

The VISION decides all that comes to pass in Petite: Badgerdust, and is the spiritual guide to our spiritual liege, as we yiff away into the galaxy, honking our horns and building our cucksheds. Beware of the griefer NPC cult called /edg/ though - most of the time they can be seen flying to and fro the bublear constellation of the VISIONary settlements, to acquire and collect more of what these fowl beasts call "dawsh". But sometimes they may pull you out of your cozy subpar cruise with their VISIONs of false providence and """game improvements""", set forth by entitled milennial shitheads who never played the original Delete and thus SHOULD HAVE NO SAY WHATSOVER even though they paid for the PRIVILEGE of playing the video VISIONs of the great BrabeN - and attempt to engage you in non-consensual pee vee pee because they are griefing entitled milennial shit heads not like my wife's son he's a good boi and dindu nuffin like they do! If you are exposed to this vile, entitled behavior, log out from open immediately never to return, sign up for the Mobius private group and post on the forums about how getting engineer upgrades is too fucking simple because milennials are too entitled even though you have two hours total played in 2 years and just got an E-rated Python but since you played the original Concrete on your Amiga you get to decide because they weren't there man and they should just blaze their own trail and not worry about the grind it will come naturally!

Oh, and, remember to fly safe CMDR o7

Whenever I am interdicted or scanned by a player I type /edg/ in direct chat.

Perhaps I've lead some dads here.

Why is everything in this game a grueling, nigh-unbearable grind? Every single thing.

>>148962330
Because to the dads, wallowing in a bargain bin shitbox doing everything as slowly as possible is part of the experience and you're an entitled millennial if you want a better ship before you die.

Guy with ED backer shirt at store where I work

What do

>>148963593

"Right on, CMDR!"

Is double MC Vulture viable? I really love MCs, but being ammo dependent kinda worries me.

>>148963791
AFAIK multicannons are still bugged with infinite ammo. I haven't played since a few days after 2.1 hit, a few seconds after the staggering amount of grinding it was going to take to grade 5 upgrade all of my ships I have over a dozen...

This game is kil for me, I've moved on from the "grinding while hopeful that the game will get better eventually" phase to the true end-game, the "omg this game blows and will never be good, now I'm just going to angrily dadpost about it but never actually play" phase.

>>148963791
I tried it out, was pretty piss weak against shields without eng mods, and I haven't had a lot of success with them against hull either. I feel like MCs have gotten nerfed recently.

>Dads think 10 hours of travel is okay and actively try to convince people to make that kind of journey

Jesus, christ.

>>148964263
19 dps is weak against hull? what? I thought it will tear through it. Even small MCs are good against a ship of equal size.

>>148963626

He's a regular customer and probably around 30-40 years old

I wonder if he likes the game?

Maybe he's headed home to shitpost here?

Seems more like a reddit person though

>>148964263
Yeah, I think maybe FTroop stealth nerfed MCs because grade 5 overcharged MCs were legitimately OP. Once I got 3 large OC MCs on my Python, AI ships would just melt whenever I opened up on them.

>>148964829
Yeah, I used to drop Anacondas with 2 C2 MCs on my DBS all day long, but now having 2 C2s and 4 C1s on my ASP barely scratches Cobras, and having a 2 C3Gs on my Python did like maybe 1% hull damage per hit on small ships like that. I've been beginning to suspect what >>148965143 said.

>>148964506

Journeys like this regularly wouldn't be an issue if there was payoff. I regularly go on hour-long shopping trips in eve going all over the galaxy buying goods cheap to sell high at trade hubs. The problem with Elite is that the payoff for going ridiculous distances is effectively zero other than take pretty screenshots that you could do in Space Engine for free anyways. What's the point of spending 15 minutes starring at a starfield screensaver just to get to some bumfuckegypt outpost to complete a trade mission when you could take another mission and spend only a minute and a half in travel to a starport? There's never any incentive to travel other than an autistic desire to "see space," which is fine, but for most people who aren't slipping into senility, it gets tiring after some time.

>>148965868
>Payoff

That would alleviate a small portion of the issue. Too bad I cannot see anything being a good justification for literally having to spend 20 hours (roundtrip) if not more of your life in a video game just to travel.

>>148964138
How are they bugged? I started playing not so long ago, and dont get this grind meme. You dont have to do stuff as fast as possible, theres no endgame whatsoever. Also, holy fuck I just realised that Vulturre is a small size, which makes it sidey 2.0. And i really enjoyed flying it.
>>148965143
I guess I'll have to go PL+MC then.

>>148966134
I'd go dual pulses myself, cheap, simple, always effective.

If you want to mix I'd say go beam and your other weapon.

>>148966134
>I don't get this grind meme

It's not a meme when the entirety of your game consists of doing the same things over and over. Trading is a grind, because you're doing the same thing, over and over everywhere. Bounty hunting is a grind because, you guess it. You're doing the same thing, everywhere.

>>148966134
>I started playing not so long ago, and dont get this grind meme.

Give it time. The realization that there's nothing to do in the game except grind will hit you soon enough.

>You dont have to do stuff as fast as possible

Grinding slowly and inefficiently is still grinding.

>theres no endgame whatsoever

There is so an endgame, it's continuing to shitpost about the game long after it stopped being fun.

>>148966097

>theres no endgame whatsoever

When people talk about no endgame, they usually mean that the game does not change, even a little bit, between different ships besides doing things faster. Going from a Vulture or T-9 to an Anaconda changes nothing besides being able to kill things faster or carry more goods to make money faster. Same thing with Engineers: get an arbitrary number of materials after hours of searching or days of playing passively to increase your ship's performance with no downside an arbitrary percentage amount. I tell people whenever I can to forget about the big ships because as soon as you get a large ship, you realize how bland the game is.

I've grinded RNGneers like crazy to even the playing field while doing PvP.

I got 3 normal dogfights. THREE. the other were combat logs or high wakes without even deploing hardpoints.

Now i almost fell asleep at Maika, and the only action I got was a chat with T-7.

Space irl isn't much more than that

Can you strip down a sidewinder then fly it at other ships at 99, collide, get destroyed, and give the other player a bounty for speeding near a station?

>>148990482
Yes, and? This is not real life. We're currently flying massive ships docking in space stations and interacting with alien probes. Last I checked, real life got none of that either.

>>148990887
Real life can have that one day. It will never have a majority of worlds with life and interesting phenomena.

I never got the point of this garbage. All it does is gimp me by enemying me with other factions and it's annoying when I'm smuggling shit all over the galaxy. Are the bonuses that good or should I keep not giving a shit?

>>148994196
Also that they've taken this "real life" meme too far. Although ED is a called a space sim, it no way in hell is 100% simulator. I recall one space sim (forgot the name) which gives you DCS/Falcon 4.0 levels of interaction with your ship. ED doesn't have that. Regarding the galaxy itself, it shouldn't be composed of nothing but emptiness. Especially that we "easy" access to the entirety of the milky galaxy.

Now, they don't have to go the No Man's Sky route and put animals and shit on literally every planet. But having an entire galaxy which is empty, even the populated planets, does not good video games make.

>>148994380
Keep not giving a shit. Power play was hot garbage when it came out, and it's somehow even worse now. FD said they're going to give it some work in season 2, but if I know anything about FD, that will also be hot garbage.

Won't happen. Dads will complain that their home systems are fucked up and demand they be returned immediately to normal.

>>148995969
If they just made the "new bubble" entirely player colonized, and added guild tools to support that concept, I'd be perfectly happy. That way the "main bubble" would remain the current PvE-centric dad-hole it currently is, and the "new bubble" could be where EVE-style corp gameplay finally happens.

>>148998110

How would this even work?

>Bounty hunt for half an hour, despite there only being one real way to do so

CQC is fucking ded.

>>148998354
Run a variety of missions and engage in BGS activities, regardless of whether or not they make money, instead of just RES grinding or A->B trading using eddb.

I'll admit that exploration is shit, though, I still never do that

>>148998678
>BGS activities

So 100% what I just described.

>regardless of whether or not they make money

That's just stupid. If I'm going to do something that's not fun (which is what every ED activity becomes after half an hour), I'm at least going to earn some cash. This is why telling someone "just don't grind" is the biggest load of bullshit. So not only would I not be having fun, I would not be making any money either.

>>148998982
I thought it was bullshit too, until I tried it. Fucking with the BGS with the purpose of pushing a faction is basically a whole other game. And no, RES grinding and A->B loop trading are some of the least BGS-effective activities in the game.

>>148998982
I think his argument is try to have fun RPing with a bunch of other people instead of trying to have fun doing specific things in the game, because nothing in the game itself is actually fun. Always find RPers kinda pathetic and sad, though.

>>148999237
It's not about the RP, I'm talking about pushing factions and fucking with others, there's a whole relatively nuanced game inside the game that no one ever bothers with in playing the minor factions.

>>148998110
So, the only thing that stems from your blogpost is that you're desperate for virtual friends.

If you really like gay internet friendship and RP you've picked the worst game for it. Freelancer: Discovery is miles better than ED.

>>148999374
>making stations change faction names is fun

You are worse than deluded explorers.

>>148999232
>Until I tried it

See the thing is, I tried it also. I also tried winging up with friends and doing various activities. It eventually boiled down to interdicting NPCs/Players and killing them over and over which was boring as fuck.

>With the purpose of pushing a faction

Are you speaking of minor factions or major? I don't give a shit about delivering pamphlets for duval or any other shit. It's the same exact gameplay just with a different name.

>>148999237
>RPing

If I need to roleplay to have fun in a game, then that game has failed.

>>148999397
Nah, meeting fellow autists is just an added bonus to discovering the actual fun in the game.

>>148999453
It's not the name changing that's fun, that's reductionist as fuck. It's playing the BGS with a group of other players and working towards larger goals. It brings variety into the gameplay and provides a sense of accomplishment when you finally flip a system after all that work. I didn't think it would be fun, either, until I tried it.

>>148999581
Nah, no Powerplay shit, I'm talking pushing minor factions. I kind of wish PP was about pledging to a minor faction and expanding upon the things you can do for your own faction instead, but oh well. I'm not sure what you were doing that you were just interdicting over and over, the bulk of it involves running various missions and raiding state-based signal sources, though interdicting cops or traders can sometimes be helpful, too.

Anyway I'm done, I get why you're all skeptical, but if you're going to grind, you might as well grind for something that feels purposeful.

>>148999232
>Fucking with the BGS with the purpose of pushing a faction is basically a whole other game.
That's bullshit my dude. Fucking with BGS consists of repeting the same scarce and grindy gameplay constructs over and over. BGS is also largely a black box system, so you're just grinding for a possibility that something might change.

It's literally a cargo cult and you are the retard buying it. What's the fun in grinding for Crimson Procgen Mafia or changing id3 tags on systems?

Btw I remember reading a lengty gulag thread not long ago. Some guy wasted months "influencing" BGS by himself. He achieved some success only to woke up next day and find that ftroop reverted everything he's done. Hilarious.

>>148999645
>actual fun
And that's a straight fucking meme.

>>148999645

>>149000110
>if you're going to grind, you might as well grind for something that feels purposeful.
That's the gist of the problem. Your proposition to grind for a minor faction does not feel purposefull at all. Or less grindy.

You don't "join" any of the major powers.

You rank up with the Federation/Empire by doing missions for Fed/Empire aligned minor factions (aka the people that give you missions/administer stations in systems).

You can be a top ranked Federation pilot simultaneously with being a top ranked Empire pilot, and neither faction will care. The only factions you can actually join are either custom player minor factions or powerplay figures.

What's the key to go on debug camera mode?

>>149019738

You have got to be fucking kidding me. So is this ALL CZs or just sporadic random encounters?

Is it worth upgrading my ASP to a Phyton on Sothis smuggling?

>>149020767
Nearly all from what I've seen on the forum. If you want to grind rank, you can slap a bunch of turrets on your ship, fly to a CZ, and go AFK while the defenders just sit there and eat it.

>>149021075

I don't care if I don't get a lot of features as long as the features I get are well designed and implemented.

How much have you played? You know Powerplay? The whole thing is broken in such a way that the developer abandoned even talking about it. Fixing it has been put on the backburner. It's not that it was engaging or cool to start with, but it is a testament to the incompetence of the developer.

I've made more money in just 3 runs of Sothis than in 60 hours of high res bounty hunting and normal trading. Why is this allowed and why barely any YouTube video exists letting everyone know of this technique?

Ok guys.

I want do do something fun with the other players.

SOMETHING. I dunno, even Eagle haz res farming Elite Anacondas.

I want to pretend al little that this game has any player interaction.

Is there any group here that pretends to have fun?

are mines even worth it against NPC pirates?

What's this garbage for?

>>149039729
why does this game not tell you anything about this game?

you have to use serveral third party websites/tools to even figure out the basicest shit

>>149039729
Engineers. If you don't have horizons, just sell them.

Haven't tried combat since the Horizons update, are the NPCs really that overpowered now? An Will an A-rated Cobra be able to handle normal missions? I need to rank up so I can get a Federal Corvette.

>>149039371
Because the point is that nobody knows of it.
Ceos/Sothis trick was just our information for like two months before anyone even mentioned it in the forums
Same with the PP CZ turreting.

It is allowed because ftroop sucks at balancing, game development and fixing problems. The 'exploit' underlines the fact how much you need money in this game and how almost every other method for money acquisition is pretty much useless compared to this.

>>149039632
You can outrun NPCs pretty easily.

Well I did it, I bought Horizons.

>>149042219
That's my point. There's no point.

how does the PP farming works? i'm with spaceHudson doing Sothis runs now, how do i rank up with the Feds to get sum nice Gunships?
i have an aspie i can fit with MCs .

have a comfy clipper

>>149042930
but that's a courier

>>149043794
always get them messed up, fucking gutamaya
isn't the courier the bigger one?

>>149044081
clipper is in the top left of the image, courier is in the middle
it's like the image was taken by a woman where the subject of interest is obstructed by said woman

>>149044269
fuck me. the one in the middle was mine, having both of the was unintentional

Why are there ranks for combat, merchant, exploration, cqc but not mining?

New update when? New season when?

>>149044896
New update in 4-5 months. New season in 6 months.

>>149045149
What are they planning? Aside from more grind.

>>149045224
Grind with your friend.

>>149045149
Yeah, they are going to drop Season 3 while Season 2 isn't even half finished. Their excuse will be that they've got multiple teams working on different things.

That's ignoring the fact that even the things that they do implement are buggy, rarely if ever work, just different shades of grind and a huge rip off.

Seriously, Season 3 will drop end of this year. Season 2 won't be finished. Frontier needs the money. And forum dads line up because they love being Frontier's bukakke targets.

>>149044896
Update to engineer grind around NMS release. Ship launched fighters some time later. Check steam news for specifics.

Do i need a Kill warrant scanner to make money in the PP cz? or i just have to pile up PP credits?

>>149046891
You don't use KWS in conflict zones.
All you need is a big fuel tank and turrets set to fire at will.

holy shit yes, now the game grinds for me!

I need to give the engineers gifts before I even get a chance to speak with them?

>>149050612
Yes. Happy grinding.

>>149039632
Npc's are the only ones stupid enough to run into mines so they're actually very effective as long as your ships hardpoint placement doesn't have you ramming your own mines as soon as they launch. From what I've tried so far, the python has the best placement for mines, you can boost straight ahead and none should hit your own ship.

What's the price for a basic anaconda built for trading and long range jumps?

>>149052957
Use the calculator from the OP, you mongoloid.

So much effort for nothing.

>>149053843
We can't have people discovering anything before Frontier is ready for them to discover it, getting off script like that would be hugely unprofessional when they clearly want to tell a story.

Does anyone know a spot to grind Fed rank? I need me that Corvette.

Pic related, my dream ship

>>149056458
No, fuck off.

>>149056458
get to a fed system and take missions from feds.
The more feds in mission board the better

HAHA like what two months passed and AFK turreting is still a thing. How can anyone take frontier seriously after shit like this?
I barely touched the game during these two months and made 400mil

>>149057473
I dont quite get how. I went to a combat zone and got my ringpiece violated. What are people equipping, just Pulse and MC's?
