Has people made any kind address or petition for developers of ED about bringing in the MMO features / more exciting gameplay / anything into more line with something coherent?

Looking at the forums there are people posting "ED is not a game, it's a simulator" and retarded shit like that. If it were a simulator at least, you don't get fucking missions randomized every time you restart the game for example...

It's the Windows version of SE. Way more casual but you can't do as much. It has way more and better gameplay than SE but much less simulation.

It's much easier to build things in it but you can't build as sophisticated ships. There are things to shoot and even 'missions' though they're a bit more like achievements. Aliens as well.

>not mentioning how unstable SE is
It was mentioned plenty last thread, we don't need a threadly reminder in an ED/SC thread do we?

It's instability doesn't make it a bad game, just one that I can't bring myself to get attached to yet.

It blows my mind the kind of things that you can build though. Without putting an insane amount of work into it, I built a modular capital ship that could undock elements of itself depending on what I was doing and had a functional gravity drive to zip across space in an instant. And I did that solo in a few nights. The asteroid base our alliance made was amazing, crafted Escher-like gravity fields, giant hanger doors, ship elevators...

It's an amazing game...except for the instability. Which only exists in multiplayer but still, that's kind of the point of the game.

So I've almost exclusively bounty hunted for my money in ED so far, and I've just started doing Quince scans. I've tallied up a small bounty for the first time in ever and would like to know how it and future bounties will affect me.

If spacecops see me will they shoot on sight, or will I be actively scanned first? Does the size of my bounty determine whether or not they'll chase me? If I die does the bounty go away? How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop? If bounty size is a factor, when will surrounding ships start becoming a threat?
>>
>>169652516
Vaguely related.
I have a fine in a system miles away that has a time limit, should I care?

Oh nice, so I'm golden. I'll get elite before that. I could even just do one stupid long mission for like 50mill. Might be faster then a ton of 1-3mill ones
>>
>>169652516

>will I be actively scanned first?

Yes.

>Does the size of my bounty determine whether or not they'll chase me?

If you are scanned and have a bounty on, they will follow you to the depths of hell/they despawn/they die, no matter the size.

HOWEVER

I have no idea if the size of the bounty affects the chance of having a bounty hunter spawn/scan you.

>If I die does the bounty go away?

Yes.


>How many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?

11.

>>169652943

Related to one of my previous answers; kill yourself. Upon death all active bounties become dormant. They will not show up on scans any longer, and you will not be considered wanted in any systems that you were wanted in.

If you're doing Quince scan runs, why aren't you killing yourself anyway? Buy a Hauler at Miller port or whatever it's called, gather missions, go do the scans, kill yourself, spawn back at station and hand in missions. Much quicker, and a Hauler rebuy is only 32k credits.

>>
>>169653829
Not anon with the fines. Even under the minimal stress of taking off under fire in an unshielded Hauler, flying is comfy, and I'm still pretty inexperienced when it comes to doing actual missions. I don't get "Objective complete" notifications until I'm well over halfway back to the station and I don't want it to go "hey fucker go do those scans again."

I also figure getting into the station undetected, managing my heat in silent running, and making stupid fast landings is good practice for other activities.

>>169658279
Elite disappoints me a lot, I wasted my evening again doing missions. I stared the navigation reticle in the middle of my screen for 6 hours, that's basically the whole damn game. Then you dock, pick a mission and then stare the reticle again.

Is SC worth buying? Maybe I should look into something else though. I'm not sure how Evochron Legacy is but I think it might be too crude on lot of levels..
>>
>>169657558
>Would have traded a commission for horizons
Oh right.
I can easily afford Horizons, I just am not enthused about spending money on a game that has no story/goal. Open ended games that are also real money cash sinks just seem kind of pointless to me. I guess I'll drop some cash on it some day when it's on sale and I'm not playing anything else much.

I can't play MMOs anymore, I just end up missing actual games that are also stories.

When a game needs you to 'create your own story', I eventually get bored of it and the time and money invested feels wasted. I'm reminded from some /trv/ copypasta about how enlightened travellers don't need to leave their home because they visualise their destination and enjoy the experience in their mind while meditating. Nemaste!

Evochron Legacy isn't bad, it just take 3 hours to complete the tutorial, not joking.

I would buy SC again if I didn't own it already, even knowing what I know about the delays.

The thing is, plan to get at least an Aurora LN. You will need to upgrade a starter pack for $5 to get the only decent starter ship. Use the code referral too for extra money in game after beta. By the time you master your ship, play SM, and play AC until you know what you are doing, ED will be interesting again.

>If spacecops see me will they shoot on sight, or will I be actively scanned first?

AI cops and random bounty hunters have to actively scan you first.

>Does the size of my bounty determine whether or not they'll chase me?

Not the cops, no. They're not after your bounty. Having one at all means you need to die. Random bounty hunter AIs may choose not to engage you if your bounty is small and you present too much of a threat to risk it.

Having a large bounty does cause dedicated bounty hunters to sometimes appear and come after you. Compared to random ones, these ones tend to be deadly/elite rank in kitted combat ships around your own size, and will always engage immediately.
>>
>>169653829
>Upon death all active bounties become dormant. They will not show up on scans any longer, and you will not be considered wanted in any systems that you were wanted in.

Caveat: If you commit even the tiniest fineable offense in jurisdiction with a dormant bounty, the authorities will discover who you are and that you are not actually dead, and reactivate your full bounty followed by immediately trying to kill you.

On the other hand if you respawn in the system you were wanted in, you'll be forced to pay all outstanding bounties + fines in addition to rebuy insurance in order to get your ship back, but this clears said bounties/fines off your record instead of making them dormant.

APARs are still the best pairing with Suckerpunches. Omnisky IV is the second best pairing. APARs are the highest outright damage size 2 guns. I'm in love with the SPs though. I wish they would release a size 3 version of it.

lacking, but when you put the vessel in the scope of a wing group, the asp carrying eight shield breaker torps for big prey that an accompanying heavy-hitter can then efficiently facefuck, it's a fucking chariot of death

the asp's hitbox is hilariously bad for the ship, though. it's the very first vessel in terms of ascending size with which gimbals and shit have a serious advantage on the hull because of how fucking big it is. plenty to hit, but you can get the hulltank pretty beefy.

buy a vulture for combat instead?

It was pretty damn good as it was. I don't know whether that's because MS fixed it up or whether they just cut out the unfinished and unworkable stuff or whether even they couldn't ruin it but it was a pretty amazing game.

There's no way that Freelancer is a criticism of Roberts, it's one of the reasons that I think that SC might one day actually be a really good game.

This happens with 17D, too. It takes the game a minute to properly spawn CZs and generate missions. You can be sure too that when CZs spawn, they will be sporadic and won't sync up between solo and open. It'll probably be stable tomorrow.

I know what you mean, still I felt that Freelancer was unfinished, originally there was picture of cockpit view and many features felt like they were meant to do more.

I grew to find the game way too repetitive (turning battle, lacking a way to store ships) but the first time I played it was awesome. I still remember at the time how hard it was to connect to a modded server.

And can you believe the game was(is?) still being modded ?

samefagging here.

Grinding money is the game core gameplay loop.
Grind money to get better ship and parts to grind money to get better ship and parts to grind money. If easy money exists to short circuit that there is no game and everyone will quickly realize that and stop giving braben shekels. Can't have that!

That's the problem : The ONLY thing to do in Elite Dangerous is getting new ship, because the dev can't into "Lateral Progression" and don't have other features. Plus the conundrum of 1 players = 1 pilots.
If you could travel or grind money faster, people would get bored (of the feature, not the grind this time) more quickly and lack incentive to keep playing.

Hopefully CIG will not need fake longevity because even if you get your own solo capital ship it won't do everything.

>>169718567

FFXIV is a good example of this. They actually just kept tuning up and making the encounters harder/more ridiculous (there's a 20+ page boss guide that involves movement timings down to the second) until it actually broke the playerbase.

The middlecore endgame crowd kind of fucked off and hasn't really come back. There was a server migration that put all of the people who had the slightest interest in raiding past the hand-holding difficulty onto one server and made the rest of them a wasteland.

How exactly was it nerfed? Diminishing returns, or a general numbers nerf?

I've got 3 Resist Aug / 2 Heavy on my corvette, and I feel like I'm going to need to break out the calculator and do some Effective shielding math.
>>
>>169719810

Dimishing returns on shield value. The changes don't affect resists at all.

For PVE the optimal build is (and still will be) Thermal Resistant Bi-Weaves with utility slots fitted with Resistance Augmented Shield Boosters. You're functionally immortal with that setup due to how PVE actually plays out.

The only reason to fit non-biweave shields or heavy duty shield boosters is for PVP, where your 'maximum health' is actually relevant.
>>
>>169719664
Early backers
>>169719762
From the stats I saw it's reasonably fast and has an average/decent jump range, but only two small hardpoints
>>
>>169720452
From what I could understand, they said the Max % increase to shields from boosters before diminishing returns kick in is 150%?
Which means effectively the heavy duty mod is useless when you can have 7 boosters at 20% all with resistances instead. I'm referring to my corvette too where the 8th slot is used for a heatsink
I wonder how badly the diminishing returns are when it gets past the 150%?
>>
>>169721352

For PVE the Heavy Duty mod is useless anyway. Once you get enough resistances, Bi-Weaves make you immortal.

In PVE every ship should be using Thermal Bi-Weaves for their shields and Resistance Augmented SBs in every utility slot barring things like a kill warrant scanner.

This applies to both 2.2 and 2.3.

There are diminishing returns, but it kicks in so late that the healing that bi-weave shields provide ends up outpacing the damage output of NPC ships.

Every time a way is found that doesn't take months, it is patched out of the game. Even if you could afford a base conda, you will spend 3x time that to equip it. Even without engineers, you have weeks of gameplay just to get your rebuy back.

If there is not a way to clear at least 20 million/hr, the ED isn't worth playing. Pretending the point of this game is a slow crawl towards a ship you will never afford to equip or use is fucking retarded.

Jesus, really? How about something more reasonable then, a well-equipped Python or FDL?

Before starting Quince scans I've pretty much just done bounty hunting at random Nav Beacons, and with ~140h of gameplay my net worth was about 10m. I assumed how I was doing things was ridiculously slow, and I've never really put too much effort into missions because it always seems to be something that's fairly infeasible for me to do with a relatively measly pay. I'll never forget the time I picked up a mission to kill a guy for maybe 100k, and the target turned out to be an Anaconda with a wing of Vipers and Eagles.

It's *because* there is nothing else to do.

We're not paying a subscription for this game, the only way to get more money out of us is selling expansions, that means that they must keep us in the game until the next expansion drops.

If we quickly make billions now and have every ship in the game, there's not actually anything left to do and we'll get bored and leave and play other shit. Then when the expansion drops, half of us won't come back for it.

By keeping us grinding away, we stay in the game for longer and we're more likely to still be here when the expansion drops.

They're not just targeting us of course, they're targeting whatever players might buy ED, play and max out their ships and leave before whenever the expansion release date is. They have to postpone the players reaching end-game because there's no actual end-game.

>that shit is at best 30 min of typing shit with a coffee pause
The 3-mission limit is an easy change, the counting kills once thing would be more work, impossible to say without knowing the game architecture. It could conceivably be quite difficult to make sure that a kill is only counted once, there might be a queue of functions wanting to trigger on a kill event and you'd have to go through the queue and remove any scribed functions that are massacre missions, or something. It might not be easy.

>and it speaks of bad mission design if people resort to mission stacking
Players will exploit any advantage, we are basically machines for finding the most efficient ways to win. It doesn't have to be bad design, we'll just always find and exploit the most efficient way. *Something* will always be the most efficient way of doing things and we're going to ignore everything else in favour of it.

The real reason isn't dev time anyway, it's business strategy and the grind. See: >>169752310

even in the late 80s, there was one acclaimed reviewer from finland who played original c64 elite and later on the atari st version a lot but according to his words he realized what kind of useless grind it would take to get best status...

i don't understand how these idiots think the game today is good as it is (as now it is exactly like the original game in terms of content and gameplay, and in fact it's even more boring because there's less action and docking is easier). they should just play the original and stop complaining about adding more features.

guy you were responding to, in my opinion, no. or at least not as easily as i was doing it. i would just wait for a good opportunity and plug away at the thing's reactor and down it went

but now it seems impossible, so this is not okay either
>>
>>169760254
I would say if you can manage to hit an unshielded Conda's reactor with a full barage - Yes.

But honestly, that opportunity should only present itself rarely.
>>
There's really no reason to kill any other players. I can't imagine a single situation where that would be beneficial. If griefed unnecessarily beginner players will just start to avoid the game. I usually play the game solo so I don't even mind this conversation but I have seen other getting really emotional about getting griefed.
>>
>>169760230

typical milennial "me-me" attitude, always wanting their "dessert" at once! this game is a steady walk, a long, beautiful trip (sometimes literally :D) to somewhere new and exciting! if you feel like you "have" to grind to get the latest and flashiest bit of kit, I think you really should rethink not only the way you play this game but also your way of thinking in irl... when you've lived for 40 and a bit years you come to realize that the best things in life are the ones earned through hard work.... cracking a beer after a long days work, pure bliss. just like in this game i reckon, seeing that shiny new python on the pad, knowing the work you put in to get it , HONORABLY, is a great feeling.

According to Derek, they caused it.

Apparently it's only the Virginia S3 service that's down which isn't servers, it's data storage. Mostly CDNs.

theyre literally not usable in any online modes of 2.6+ though, they don't impact anywhere near the pips, ignore hits completely in crusader or online AC just like the pyroburst, and when they do work, take 10x the shots to kill an aurora that they did pre 2.6

the only thing i ever used them for was for the damage, but that damage is no longer anywhere near consistent enough to have 60 max ammo

pretty sure they got left behind completely at 2.6 and arent even adjusted for the new flight model

I've been trying railguns engineered for long range combat. Their effective range is about 5km.
They work pretty great as thanks to fixed weapon convergence I can take out powerplants on other ships before they can even fire at me.
The problem is aiming accurately.
Even with brightness set to max it is difficult to notice the silhouette of my target. This is alleviated by selecting any module.
But even the module targetting becomes difficult to notice if the aiming "dots" block out that targetting square and I end up missing because of the instruments being poorly designed.
Picture in picture zoom would help immensely.
How much of an advantage do you think picture related would be in the world of Elite?

Bruh, pic related are APARS on an Aurora LN. With suckerpunches dropping the shields, they work fine. Sights are good too, at least on an Aurora.

I've used them on a 350r also. Heavy damage and accurate. However, the sights did not work when I tried 3 of them on a Gladius, so there is that.

This >>169646715 is me finishing off that Gladius with APARs. I know it was the APARs doing damage, since SPs don't damage hulls

You can only play the beta version if you purchased beta access way back when Horizons first released. Yes, you had to spend extra money in order to test FD's update for them and to play it a week or two earlier. You can still do Quince (17D is not in CW at the moment last I checked), but planet scans and massacre missions are getting limited to only 3 at a time, so this is your last chance to get in to enjoy massacres and planet scans before it's over. Who knows, maybe 17D will kick into civil war before the update drops for everyone.

To be known as the superior "told-you-guy" the day SC get's cancelled or released with just 10% of the planned features.
>>
>>169813048
At first he wanted to somehow get into CIG, the same way he did with that other game. Alganon or something. If I remember correctly it was originally started by a group of friends that wanted to make a game and Smort got hired as a consultant of some sorts. He somehow convinced the investors that he and his 'expertise' are valuable, became CEO and fired the original devs. Unsurprisingly the game died shortly afterwards.

Now it's probably just PR. If he wasn't constantly shitposting about SC ever since mid 2015, most people who pay attention to him now in some way wouldn't even know he existed.

>>
>>169821261
I think if he will be too close to his wife they together can initiate a nuclear reaction because of critical mass
>>
>>169821261
Since no one took me up on my request at the time of writing, I decided to calculate the amount of energy Ben has amassed.

Adipose tissue is roughly 37 kJ/g. Ben is 6'3", and so I would estimate his weight to be around 30st, which is about 190kg. A healthy male at 6'3" would weigh about 80kg and have 10% body fat / 45% muscle. Let's take away the healthy weight (minus fat) from Ben's weight.

190kg-(80kg*0.9)=118kg.

So Ben has roughly 118kg of adipose fat, therefore:

(118kg*1000)g*37= 4,366,000kJ. or 4,366,000,000 joules of energy.

Muscle is roughly 17kJ/g. Now to calculate the energy in his muscles:

(80kg*0.45*1000)*17=612,000kJ. or 612,000,000 joules of energy.

So in total Ben has amassed roughly 4,978,000,000 or roughly 5 BILLION JOULES of energy.

Now, to put that in perspective, a .50 cal bullet is only about 17,000 joules. So Ben is roughly equivalent to around 294,000 .50 calibre bullets! His corpse could also power the average sized home for half a year! So I suppose that means, that yes, he COULD power around 180 houses for a day! Incredible!

they're equivalent to guilds basically. can probably create jobs yes, as it sounds like any player can post up a job to the local job boards, so they can no doubt have their own members-only job board and possibly pool org funds to post bigger jobs to the public like hiring fleet escorts or even mercs for org warfare and shit like that. you get your own comms and chat room and forum and shit, which at some point will have a level of integration directly into the game via spectrum.

Is the corrosive damage bonus binary like a status effect, or is it a function of the weapon that fired it?

(Should I put it on my smaller or larger cannon)

>>169855628
Status effect. Hull takes 30% (nonstacking) more damage from all sources.

Passenger ships are only as good as the passenger missions are. AspX is the best passenger mission runner because luxury mission rewards are the same as first-class missions and don't force you into a ship with shit jump range.

With the current mission system in place, the Dolphin doesn't seem to have much going for it save price. 2xsize 4 compartments means six first-class passengers maximum, which is the bare minimum for well-paying missions. The jump range of a passenger build (A-rated FSD, D-rated others) seems to 25ly one according to ObsidianAnt.

So it might be good for those looking to do any passenger missions without a lot of money. Price is unknown, but speculated to be 1.2m from the beta price.

I got a pretty good level 3 dirty drive roll, so it's agile as all hell. I could dodge 75-90% of a deadly python's shots. He cracked my shield after I got him down to 30% hull, but then I just put 2 into shield and waited until it was back up again. Took 7% hull damage from it. I've been flying a Python for so long (granted, level 5 dirty drives so it doesn't really fly like a Python anymore...), so this feels like fucking easymode.

For my part, I downloaded discord and it spent three hours failing to update while I was in-game.

mite b cool but i'd consider making the class 3 an incendiary as the large Mcannon fire profile is very lengthy in spinup and may not benefit too much from it. i could have it inverse, though, and it might be an awesome autoloader, but at the same time just the two medium incens would feel inadequate for me.

autoloader class 4s are going to be fucking hilarious for you though and the emissive will aid gimbal tracking

i don't know what flavor of laser underneath that experimental would be best for you but ensure that your main mcannons are overcharged, and get your corrosive small in the high capacity magazine format to offset the ammo malus it receives by default. that weapon is not to do damage but amplify the other sources

>>169863960

Overcharge everything but the 1's. Increased mag on those, since those are for status effects only.

I was going to gimbal everything because I'm lazy, but you've made me consider fixed. I think the turn rate of the corvette would be able to pull it off, but it still might be more effective to use all gimbals so I don't get fucked by something quick.

the full broadside of the corvette does not necessarily have a great deal of pinpoint lethality and in my earnest opinion a fixed loadout is better served by a medley of PAccs, F-cannons, and railguns. smaller targets will slip in between your guns big time, as they're all over the shell of the corvette in my experiences but in truth i've never tried a full set of fixed m-cannons on the ship. the minor locking effect of the fixeds might alleviate some of this and your other small needn't be anything related to emissions at that point.

the armaments i've brought up to quince for npc massacres are six gimballed rapid fire phasing pulse lasers and a long-range cascade imperial hammer for my corvette but i typically walk around with two long range small cascade railguns, two medium overcharged incendiary f-cannons, an overcharged incendiary pacifier and twin long-range phasing plasma accelerators (dat projectile speed); potential self defense against other commanders in mind with that

there's magic in full fixed mcannon loads, though. they can be absolutely brutal.
>>
>>169864838
durr only four of the lasers are phasing, one is emissive and another is a scrambler

I've tried PA's on my size 4's and I was not impressed. Part of the reason for this move, actually.

Fixed on the autoloader damage ones (which makes a good, straight-forward delta), gimballed on medium incendiary/small utility gives me really good options, decent ability to keep up damage and status effects.

How exactly? Does it make your other gimbals less jittery/accurate through chaff/longer ranged?
>>
>>169866305
There's a certain arc that your gimbals can float to a target inside of depending on their signature and heat as far as i'm aware. A hit on a target with an emissive munition immediately raises the rate of gun travel and total arc availability so to speak on a target to maximum, momentarily; once again to my knowledge.

Tony is charge of organizing the PU. He designs the over arching economic systems. Theres nothing he can personally do to make development go faster, he doesn't make assets or code the systems himself he makes flowcharts and systems diagrams and logic loops and other high level design stuff.

Additionally I Imagine he's had limited access to the art and code teams simply because they have all been busy making assets and systems for SQ42, which obviously has priority in terms of programmers time. SQ42 is Chris's baby, SC:PU is the thing that I think most people are looking forward to most, but chris's energy and the original goal of the funding campaign was to make SQ42, so thats getting delivered first.

you won't. you see, griefing psychopaths like to do engineers so they can be griefier and psychopathier. By locking Maia away, they can stop people from buying a meta alloy and going to Farseer and starting down the path of griefing and psychopathiness. Now you have to find a meta alloy the hard way.

You're better off not holding you're breath.

It's at the very least 2 years off, likely 4

>I just wonder, how a game, made with such a low budget/resources can have most of the core features of star citizen already! With only half the developement time xD

Gee, I wonder why

lel Chris Roberts and CryEngine, a match made in shit.

>>169887065
Holy shit that game looks dope. I'm picking that up.

Also, the salt on the forum of people claiming how much larger SC is and comparisons aren't fair is just amazing.

Is Star Citizen some private joke?

Can someone explain warbonds to me?
>>
>>169887769
Cash only, you can't upgrade any existing ship to a warbond ship.

>>169887647
No more of a joke than the dads who think ED is a simulator. All those patch notes, none of it contains content. It's only bug fixes for a rushed and fundamentally broken game.

>>169887769
You can't buy warbond with store credit, only cash. It is trying to pump new cash into the system instead of melts and rebuys.

Why waste development time on a gamemode literally nobody plays?

Alright but will i be able to upgrade the warbond bought ship if anything cool pops up later?

Yes.

>>169888318
Yeah, you can upgrade warbond ships

Probably mod deleted. The dad tears about Hellion not being posted in Other Games must have got someone's attention. Typical CIG forum flames fueled by cognitive dissonance and logical fallacy.
