Best Damn Moments in the Galaxy - Elite Dangerous

[@TheSteveOll]

The multiple hyperspace jumping at the end looked so cool.

[@Timmynismo]

Dove Enigma is still my favorite event over distant worlds.

[@GoldPicard]

I can't wait till that can become more normal at least in the efforts to make it happen fighting instancing issues.

[@shugaroony]

@@Timmynismo That was my first an currently only expedition, and it was great fun.

[@sneakycactus8815]

I hope to see that when i launch for dw2!

[@philipbannor3281]

It is pretty awesome taking part in a mass-jump! :)

[@breytac]

All those ships jumping at the end reminds me of when the Rebel fleet jumped at the end of Return of the Jedi

[@joshuabaker2833]

About to rewatch that

[@nekozimo]

[@DigThat32]

Here's to the hope that Elite's future brings many more of these moments to cover.

[@watchglenn6318]

Check out Star Citizen.

[@ZakkWurzbach]

How do I find our solar system?

[@akicraftplays3063]

frozen dope just search for Sol, but to enter it you need a high rank in federation

[@AJZulu]

The last one was epic. I love it when a fleet of ships go into hyper space like that.

[@Tlactl]

May the force be with them

[@thatrandomguycommenting1261]

Someone did the distant world event in a Corvette?! God bless that hero.

[@cmdryuuiza]

My trade/mining Fed.Corvette jumps up to 30,69Ly and has no Guardian FSD booster, you can adjust a lot a ships with engineers.

[@Yeager123123]

Young guru I don’t even know where to begin lol

[@DrzBa]

Young guru Corvette has short legs in the game. Doesn’t jump as far as most other ships and wallows like a tub in a fight. Tough old ship, though. Looks like an Imperial Star Destroyer. Handles like one, too. The distant worlds expedition was ships making the journey acros tens of thousands of light years of space to parts of the galaxy never reached or explored before. Jumping, say, 22,000 light years in a ship designed for 7 Ishtar year hops at a time, is a long and laborious process, and dangerous.

[@plutoidrepublic2765]

could be worse

[@popculture70]

You're so right that the galaxy itself is the star of the game. It's a staggering achievement and I constantly find myself in awe of it.

[@mada1241]

[@philipharris-smith5889]

A long way from the original wire frame graphics I played as a boy. I’m looking forward to the December release and what is to follow!

[@shugaroony]

Me too. Have been away from it for about 4 or 5 months, but coming back on Tuesday to see the update and to go for a 77k ly jaunt in the new Krait. :)

[@breytac]

I tested the exploration mechanics in the beta, and immediately fell in love. No more flying 300kls to scan an ELW. 5-10 minutes to scan an entire system, depending on how many planetary bodies. Less time flying = more time actually exploring.

[@nickmudd]

I love watching large groups jump to hyperspace at the same time

[@bananamaniac2]

Dude the jumps at the end were literally straight out of the trailer, probably my favorite clip of all time from ED. You get the best shots sir 🤟🏻

[@Muzzsjm]

Mad to think we're over 3 years into Elite Dangerous already. I remember being so hyped back in 2012 when I heard this was going to be a reality! I'm a life time backer and have played for long periods on and off but this years been so big for the game and it's jump in quality and content is massively noticeable in the last 6 months. Frontier have created such an amazing game!

[@rikuddou]

that 2:26 transition was so smooth. Brilliant editing!

[@RocktCityTim]

Beautifully produced! I'm still amazed at some of the things I've found after almost 3K hours in-game. I'm really looking forward to Tuesday's launch so I can move my main accounts into the new world of Chapter 4! o7

[@Sedryn_]

The one thing i noticed about this game is that whenever you succeed in doing something for the first time, because you understand what you are doing, it gives you a huge sense of accomplishment. And then to think there's still so much i haven't figured out, yet.

[@kamelkadri2843]

What i like about elite the most is that it captures the true feel and look of space, no over the top colorful pink, blue or green cartoony space, the type you'll find in literally every other space game, Space is vast, empty & BLACK

[@CMDR_Evolution]

Thanks very much Obsidian o7. That was a great round up of epic moments there! A lot's changed since I started in Oct 2014 :D

[@Foxiol]

Hope that with the new tools all players now can see and enjoy things by themselves instead of waiting for someone to do so for them or in You Tube videos. One of the things that Frontier failed to do is that some things are "hidden" from the player or locked behind a "time gate", instead they should add things for us all to see and experience like in any other game so we all can have fun with it and in the game itself. Hope to see atmospherics next year and some sort of walking around. At least atmospheric landings with more gameplay attached to planets with more SRV types, handcrafted moments and areas in planets for things to do in them and such. And also something that I want to see is some more voice acting and proper storytelling.

[@sneakycactus8815]

@Opressor Retrógrado lmao you're missing out then

[@PeppyZeb]

That end scene with all the ships jumping was immense. That looked like a scene from a high budget movie

[@razr6302]

Really thinking I should get back into it! I played just after the game dropped on and off until about a year ago. Missed the Distant Worlds expedition due to life events, and stopped playing shortly after the first encounter with Thargoids, although I never got to experience it. So far my best moment is the Saleme event. That, by far, stands out the most to me.

[@MrMurmel]

I just joined that game couple of weeks ago - im 35 and I was looking for about a decade for a game, that is relaxing, inspirational and worth to return to. How did I miss this for 6 years? No clue - all I know, that I got older and i am infected with the fun of this beauty! I hope it has a future! Regards from Germany and hopefully we`ll see one another once in a while

[@flint3123]

It's been a long way and it will be an even longer way ahead. That's why I love this game so much

[@xyzzy3000]

My main Christmas wish is that Frontier will communicate with us more during development of the upcoming seasons. The drip feed approach doesn't work and leaves many wondering what is going on when things aren't delivered or if delivery appears to be slow.

[@alvatoredimarco]

Sorry to tell you, but FDev is going to continue the same way they always have.

[@Dark__Thoughts]

They stopped doing that after the massive amount of shit they've gotten from people when things that were early in development didn't match up with what they got later on. I wish it would be different too, but don't forget what kind of people are also part of this community...

[@splatmasterxxx]

Props to Obsidian and even more to Frontier for keepin' it real in the gaming realm. Distant Worlds was an amazing adventure. If this was the only game that ever worked in VR, I'd be OK with that.

[@Sol-l4i4d]

THE ENDING IS TRULY THE COOLEST DAMN MOMENT IN THE GALAXY

[@kimizor8193]

I've started playing q4 2017 and I've now experienced a lot of what has been told in this video but still, this AMAZES me like almost no game did before. I still have a lot to discover and skill to improve and that's exactly what i was searching for when I found this lil gem of a game. Thanks for this video which demonstrates how AWESOME this game can be.

[@bharatbenie]

The first Thargoid contact was thé most impactful to me.

[@chauncyraymond555]

0:42 I bursted out laughing with that unintentionally funny yet serious comment about hoping one day... SOMEDAY... for gameplay. In a game. wow ....

[@marcobonera838]

the power of time travel

[@malkavian2]

Still so many things introduced into the game that feel only half finished, hopefully they will start fleshing things out with the next season

[@MrProthall]

They already did fleshing out this season, so I am more optimistic than in years.

[@malkavian2]

MrProthall yeah they have done really well this year (and I am stoked for next weeks launch) but there are still lots of weird gaps in the game that need to be filled in

[@emchamberlain]

malkavian2 3.3 looks ace, but powerplay needs a scrap or a rebuils imo. Otherwise, looking forward to new features in 2019

[@malkavian2]

Ed Chamberlain nah powerplay just needs a few little tweaks to make it fun

[@Thrawn655]

Agreed, but working in the software industry myself, I do appreciate the focus on physics, flight models, background simulation.....and then add to it. Am I missing story telling and more developed game mechanics? Yes! Do I believe they can be added to solid underpinnings? Yes! Do I think Elite will beat SC to all of this...absolutely 😁

[@spideydmd5010]

Jump scene was awesome

[@pkf4124]

Nice retrospective Ant, let’s hope that the coming update is just the starting point for even more best damn moments

[@Thrawn655]

Well, I feel your pain....my expectations have always exceeded delivery.....but that mismatch could be caused by my unreasonable expectations or lack of delivery......I still feel frontier is commited to the dream😀

[@TheFilthyCringer]

Playing Elite for quite a fair while and had no idea you could drive around those huge planetside ports. Wish there were more people around on PS4 though, my player interactions have been nothing but flying past some and watching this one guy fly in and out a space station while his ship was freaking out all over the place.

[@incomprehensiblekerfuffle]

There’s quiet a few players on PS4 not a lot but there is

[@TheFilthyCringer]

@@incomprehensiblekerfuffle Yeah i'm going to sign up for the distant worlds expedition 2 and from what i've seen over 300 PS4 players have signed up for it so there'll be much more than that out there.

[@mada1241]

@@incomprehensiblekerfuffle So which one is it? Quite a few or not a lot?

[@incomprehensiblekerfuffle]

@@mada1241 EDIT: as i said before there is quiet a few people. Enough to see a player every now and then most of em hang in the centre of the bubble doing Events and what not. though i suggest to be careful of of KOS which is a group on E:D that kills on sight i believe also killing new players go in Open Play and see for your self.

[@god_pharaoh6111]

a recent moment i had that i enjoyed a lot was visiting Persephone. wasn't sure what to expect (other than maybe smacking into the ground). to my suprise there was some volcanism. the area i decided to land at had some geysers and ground was an icy blue. but what hit me suddenly was how dead quiet it was, despite the geysers. maybe how dark it was helped bring that sense of loneliness on out there. it was certainly a calming moment. one i hope to experience again, elsewhere in the galaxy

[@nekozimo]

The ships all going in hyper space was my fav moment 4:51 its so satisfying feels like star wars

I remember my favourite moment was probably the first time I auto-docked. I still can remember how much I laughed at the classical song playing in the background It caught me off guard

[@shadeofsound23]

You missed the Fuelum War, which was unremarkable except that the Fuel Rats asked the rest of the E:D CMDR community for help and the community kicked the BGS so hard in the balls that they went from surly losing their faction war to handily winning it in a span of time that surprised even seasoned BGS experts.

[@Oliverj-ne6iw]

I’ve been playing this game for a bit now doing passenger missions and stuff getting money but this game is absolutely massive I mean the amount u can do on it it’s like tryna revise for a test learning it 😂

[@toddsterrtm5756]

Witchspace looked so different in those older clips

[@jb-rm2ds]

I don't care what anyone says, No Man's Sky, Star Citizen, Dual Universe whatever space game it may be, none of them (be it a few star systems, only one or an entire universe) come close to Elite Dangerous, a 1:1 scale Milkyway galaxy and by this time next year no doubt atmospheric worlds too. The best space sim ever, it might not be huge intense space battles (which it certainly can be) but it shines in its exploration undoubtedly

if Obsidian can play in VR on PC why is it not supported Frontier Feature? all explanations I'v heard so far seem to lack actual insight on the issue, shouldn't it be as simple as two side by side camera angles to create stereoscopic vision? I really want support for PSVR :C

[@DayOldMeat]

PSVR support is down to Sony, but I think the resolution wouldn't be high enough. For a while, it was incredibly difficult to play VR on PC until they made some quality of life improvements, it's also far easier playing VR with a stick and throttle combined with voice commands, I don't think you can achieve that on consoles.

when you are in the same system but cant see each other, you both need to go into frame shift drive and fly around the system. then you will see each other and can drop out of frame shift drive and go and dock, or whatever you want.
