Why are people buying Horizons when they will have to pay again for planetary landings on worlds with liquid or atmosphere of any kind
>>126466862
but you won't
>>126466908
I will pay for good planetary landings not this "ded world" half-assed update that costs nearly as much as the base game and won't be "finished" for a year
>>126466786
That sounds like a pretty cool was of doing it, currently you have to pull your throttle back to avoid being pulled out of supercruise. How far away from the sun would the Lagrange points be though?
ACHTUNG
RASSENVERRÄTER
>>126467153
That depends on the mass of the object we're talking about, and the objects around it.
It shouldn't really matter how far away you land because you're going to be far enough from any well to go from 0c to 20c in a few seconds tops.
>>126467153
lagrange points only exist in a 2 body system, so that completely depends on what planet or companion you are talking about
>>126467257
>>126467289
>>126467304
I was just concerned that you'd end really far from any thing, but that looks like it would only be a problem if it was between two stars of something..
>>126467398
Where's the newsletter, Brabo? I want to hear your sweet little lies.
>>126467304
Just take the object that they jump you to and plop an anchor (n)ls at l1-l5s that you pull from the mass of the object. I'm a MATLAB fag but that seems like a thing that could be done in a few weeks without an insane amount of error, right?
>>126467564
The farther you land from a well, the better, because you accelerate faster in SC and have a higher top speed. I clearly have not done the napkin-math but it likely makes up for the distance since you spend so much time accelerating /away/ from the anchor object right now.
This would actually be a buff to trading routes, I think, especially considering pirates can't camp all five points without effort.
how do you jettison cargo?
I found "rebel transmissions" but apparently they're useless
>>126467821
Fuck off, nigger.
>>126467754
>>126467786
Forgot to say that if a conflict is thrown for L(x) or whatever because of an interfering object then you can prevent this by making the grid the jumper lands on fuck-huge, or just not fucking worry about it because in what instance are objects going to be sitting on all five Lagrangian grids?
Will a HAZ res double your profit from bounty hunting compared to a Res?
>>126467926
>>126468016
Seriously though how often is pic related going to happen where the Xs are objects with a larger radius than the parent star
>>126468079
Hazreses have a fuckton of big ships, worth +100k. Only problem, however, is that they'll kick your ass if you get into their crosshairs.
~10-20 minutes of dedicated hunting will get you 1.5 mil, easy. Just watch your shields/hull.
>>126468268
It'd be easier to just refund the pilot who landed inside something and adjust the system's anchors than to deal with this in a preventative manner
>>126466503
>black holes without accretion disc
>being any temperature
a black hole in elite terms is fairly pointless really, it's just a star that doesn't shine, if gravity slows your FSD black holes should slow it down a lot especially as you get close, maybe even there would be a point where the gravity gradient becomes so big your FSD shuts down completely and you get sucked in
planets for some reason slow you down a lot more than stars, and at least red stars have a mostly unremarkable heat
blue stars are at least somewhat dangerous in that you can more easily get too close
>>126468395
>What is hawking radiation
>>126468629
this source of radiation in space is insignificant
>>126468395
>and you get sucked in
In most SC instances in ELITE you are moving at FTL speeds and can never enter an orbit around a black hole where it is strictly impossible to escape. If you could fly inside the event horizon, I could see your FSD becoming non-functional for gameplay reasons.
and at least red stars have a mostly unremarkable heat
>blue stars are at least somewhat dangerous in that you can more easily get too close
You might find our method of stellar classification very interesting since you've noticed this on your own in-game.
Steam is getting hacked right now lmao
>>126468880
>orbit
you aren't ever orbiting anything in supercruise, and the drive gets less effective with greater gravity, it's a warp drive not an ftl drive, you never actually move faster than light
all that is needed is the point where the FSD is slowed down to such a point where it shuts off, and the local gravity is too great for your real engines to overcome as well
neither of these have anything to do with the event horizon and could be far, far beyond it
>>126468953
Maybe they shouldn't have made one of the shittiest sales ever, then.
>>126468847
This is /not/ the case. Hawking radiation can easily create fluctuations at least as high as several kelvin. Sure, it's cold to you because you're chilling on Earth and everything is nice and temperate and you're a mammal, but just because something is a few degrees above absolute zero doesn't mean it is cold.
>>126469094
Yes, they're Alcubierre warp drives and that makes sense.
The jump drives undergo some other kind of phenomenon and you can always just point away from the black hole and jump to an anchor point in range in that direction, the odds of which are pretty good.
>>126469325
the jump drive still needs you to be away from mass lock

Well, I figured it would be a B U G because the game physically stops you from approaching objects in warp or in sublight unless you sperg out the physics engine.

It wasn't initially billed as one. It was kickstarted as a singleplayer game where you could invite your friends and meet random people if you wanted.

>>126481836
No it's mostly that they realize that the content that some players want would be a waste of development time.
The game is fine as is. Go make your own if you're unhappy. The only thing that separates Elite and SC is that Elite is honest about setting expectations.
>>126482232

Are you automatically fucked if you don't upgrade to biggest and bigger ships ASAP, or is there some room in the game for those who'd rather just upgrade fighters or small multiroles?
Just looking at stats it seems that even the capitals aren't that much slower than the tiniest things, while their DPS and shields are several orders of magnitude greater...
>>126483297
>or is there some room in the game for those who'd rather just upgrade fighters or small multiroles
You see, the only things that give you a feel of progress in this game are bigger and badder ships and a bunch of xbone tier achievements like elite/faction rank.
You are free to fly whatever the fuck you want tho.
is there an updated version for this?
>>126483297
You can fly whatever and do any job. There's only more optimal forms of doing those jobs and for most people the only way to feel good about this barebones game is to have the big one.

So what I suggest is that Frontier stops developing the story now, and take every hand made mission they have done in the past, and repurpose them as events that can happen anywhere and and any time, so that all players in all corners of the populated space can experience it for themselves, no matter when they choose to play. And focus future efforts on expanding the library of such dynamic events, rather than more worthless one-time content.

Okay, how the fuck are you supposed to kill Federal Corvettes in a Courier? They're better shielded, better armored, better equipped, and most surprisingly, more maneuverable than me.
Cutters and Anacondas have a weak point- they can't turn as well as a player. This thing however always had me in the range of its cannons. And it was able to keep up with me as I was boosting away to let my shields regen a bit.

Quit bullshitting out your butthole, unless stellar wind is driving enough atmosphere away to drag the salvage, there's nothing slowing it down or coalescing it in a reasonable time-frame. Would still take decades if not a century or more.

>>126516194
I'm saying if it's 50 years old, or even a little bit old none of the pieces would be near each other

Yes, and they also certainly would not have flattened out in an orbit creating a ring-like structure. They would be all over the place, and the majority would have burned up from slowing down too greatly at impact.

It's even better how winged NPCs don't give a shit even if you kill someone through ramming. Makes cutting down those huge conda + 4 FAS death balls much easier.

Fuck off. 5k is a pathetic number for any new game regardless of genre.
Good MMOs pull MILLIONS of players. There's usually hundreds of thousands on at any given time.
This is especially important when the game makes it a point to have a gigantic world for people to explore.
It's not just MMOs either. Any successful online game will have thousands of players.
Matchmaking would be non-existent if this wasnt the case.
MMOs, though, especially rely on massive player numbers.
The fucking acronym is "Massively Multiplayer Online" for a reason.
I've had cases where I wont see another player for 2 days.

Fucking anti social dads. Solo made is half the problem with the god damn game.
Who the fuck even releases an MMO and gives players the option to not play online?
On top of that. This is an MMO with no quests. The community goals are horribly mismanaged like everything else. The economy barely works. And players are barely allowed to have any influence on the game.
The charm of comfy space trucking is gonna wear off soon.
If FD doesnt give people something to do people are going to move to other games.
And other games are coming. Hopefully they wont be absolute garbage.

>>126525710
look at archive threads. They'll tell you every secrets you need to know
>17 draconis charity missions RINSE AND REPEAT FOR DAYS
>>126525779
I thought they patched it and you couldn't spawn more missions
Why the FUCK can't I request docking permissions? Doesn't look like the stations are full, ships are constantly leaving
>>126525814
you can't, they patched it
that's why it took me fucking days to do it
>>126525825
Reasons you can't dock at a station
>All the pads are full
>You're beyond 7900 meters
>You're in a Large ship and the station has no Large pad
>Another player is in the process of spawning on the only available pad
>>126525871
So you just waited for them to spawn regularly? Any observations on how often they spawn?
>>126526089
I don't know dude, I played at work mostly, so time to time I checked bulletin board and took mission.
Yes, I'm an autist but that ship is mine now !
And I started 2 week ago...
>>126525939
As far as I know, none of these apply. Not sure what's going on but I'll try again later
>>126526209
>>126526321
nice, but actually I don't have a problem witch my dick size
>>126529279
M-maybe he wanted to say that he flies without a wing
How the fuck are you supposed to do shadow deliveries! Got 2 jumps away from Robigo, then got interdicted by some random Viper, and then as I dropped out of FSD some system authority ship appeared out of nowhere and scanned me. The really confusing thing was I was in a system with 0 population... wtf was a system authority ship doing there...
Fuck this shit
>>126530048

>>126530048
Not everyone can handle the rigors of smuggling.
>>126530219
or this autohotkey script: "!F4::run ekill.bat" combined with this .bat file: "tskill EliteDangerous64"
>>126530048
I proscribe 1 dose of git gud delivered rectally
>>126530219
>>126530226
>>126530565
>>126530891
So the only way to do these missions is to cheat? If FDev hate smuggling so much, why did they put it in the game!
>>126531598
ha ha
fucking uninstall already
What is there to do in this game. I got bored of trading and doing missions, I don't care about combat and I've been to Sag A.
What else is there?
Is 15mil enough to get an ASP Explorer nad properly mod it for eploration trip?
If not, how much credits do I need to save?
>>126538126
Go to LYR space, 15m should be more or less enough for this, excluding scoop.

>>126538126
Read the OP goddamnit.
>http://coriolis.io
And yes, its just enough for an exploration >ASP.
>>126538413
Well, good thing I dont have that "DLC"
Why can't you go to Gamma Velorum? It says you need a permit, but no faction gives one
These missions are pointless to pick up
>>126539010
future content
>>126530048
chaff, silent running, shooting the scanning ship, etc all interrupt scans
watch for ships trying to interdict you too, any ship behind you (hardpoints deployed especially) on your radar in supercruise is a threat
git gud basically
I didn't get any gems
m0t!
Bi-weave shield on Eagle, worth or not?
so how is horizons? worth pick the game back up to play?
>>126540164
not for that pricetag at the moment
>>126540661
i already have access to it because i was a premium beta backer.
>>126539841
Worth. Eagle shields are so trash and will drop under any serious fire anyway. With bi-weave they get back up super fast at least.
>>126540704
well it's still not worth the pricetag.
remember seeing those anaconda and T9 derelict ships on surface ? they are not in anymore either
>>126540704
Worth at least checking out how they done planet surfaces, no?
Landings get old fast and there's nothing interesting left when they do.
>no newsettler this week
Why is the Anaconda more maneuverable then the Python?
In my Python i would struggle to turn against faster enemies. but the Anaconda can go toe to toe with vultures and FDL, even with only B thrusters.
how does this make sense?
this is one of those games that are good to play when you're preparing to take a shit
>>126542190
because the Anaconda/Corvette/Cutter are supposed to be the be all end all OP endgame ships thats are better then all the other ships.yes the balancing in this game is fucked
>be new
>get 60k bounty reward
>can't dock anywhere
>not enough fuel to leave system
rip
>>126543518
Better call the fuel goys :^)
>>126543518
I can fix a hauler with a fuel limpet and come find you, but I wont be home for another 2-ish hours.
Although if you're new and in a shitwinder, you can just self destruct and rebuy your ship as it was for nothing, or nearly nothing.
>>126544710
Yeah it's ok, I'm dead, got shit on by anacondas
Thanks though
Could I run this game with GT 650m? I have the processor and RAM.
>>126547008
I think so yeah, but you might struggle with planets
>>126547008
>>126547221
download the alpha "demo" to see how it runs
https://github.com/xaduha/Combat-Demo-Downloader
>>126542190
It's not. I've flown both. It's only more maneuverable if you turn the fa off.
>>126512073
It has absolutely incredible acceleration, which you can exploit in FA-Off.
FAO requires skill though, which iPod-anon seems to lack.
>>126548196
so have i, and its way more maneuverable
>>126548538
Really? Did they nerf it again?
>>126548570
maybe? i wouldn't know if they did
all i know is that Anaconda sure feels like its way more maneuverable
>>126515397
They'll make different sounds in the system map when you have them selected.
It takes a bit of practice and some time listening to a new planet to figure out the difference, though.
That's how I avoid traveling 500KLS to worlds that look earthlike but turn out to just be metal or water worlds. Earthlikes blow wind and make animal sounds like bird chirping, while metal worlds sound dead and water worlds bubble.
>>126539010
That particular star is permit locked because going there would be a one-way trip. Conditions in the system are lethal to even the most heavily protected ships and the star is expected to go supernova any time now.
>>126549907
Aaaaaaany time now...
>there is no grind
>use your IMAGINATION!
yeah try grinding a faction ship ranks and play something different other than your asp explorer you nigger middle aged man
>>126542190
The Python used to fly a lot better. They knee-jerk nerfed the fuck out of it a while back because it was too good.
Speed, acceleration and maneuverability were all reduced 20% and the base shields were reduced by 1/3.
Since these stats all synergize with each other in combat the actual impact was a lot worse than just the sum of changes. The Python used to be an absolute beast.
They justified this to the community by claiming it was always mean to be an armed trader and nothing more. Which is why they had it on the CZ spawn table as a ship of the line...
>tfw 8k ly away from populated space
>tfw i just want to kill myself
>tfw i won't because i am a jew and lose out on all those sweet sweet exploration credits.
>>126550529
yeah its fucking bullshit what they did to it. I never got the chance to experience the Python in its prime, but it was still a damn good ship that got me to my Anaconda.
still a shame what they did to it though.
what?
>>126551407
what?!
okay,
which one of you visionary bastards posted this
http://i.4cdn.org/f/16%20tons%20of%20cargo%2C%20fuel%2C%20and%20VISION.swf
>>126551619
went back to supercruise and dropped in again.
apparently the instance I dropped in was borked
god mining seem like shit why did i try this
>>126551407
Looks like somebody got Alderan'd
>>126551819
>cobra with no shields
>2 pips to system
>>126549907
any time now means hundreds of thousands of years in case of this star. Also the radiation from this particular WR shouldn't be any higher than other WRs in the game, and they are approachable
>>126551990
ship-tans when?
>>126552047
If the footage is pre-1.2 that's normal. The game didn't keep track of your shields in supercruise.
In fact jumping to SC and back gave you a free recharge if they went down.
>>126552102
GV is in the middle of an expulsion event in 3301. You can't survive there right now.
>>126552869
Based on real life cycles or just in-game lore? Do you have a source if former? I'm interested in this
>>126553039
>>126552869
I just decided to check this. Apparently whole area is in lockdown. I'm also interested.
>>126553421
probably future content
>>126553039
>>126553421
You'd have to dig through Braben's twitter.They're going to have the star explode and ravage the nearby region (it will have "exploded" some time ago) and base expansion content on the freshly impacted area around the star.
>>126554735
This sounds cool, but there is no way Frontier won't fuck this up royally
>>126555176
