[@GaldirEonai]

It is actually surprisingly difficult to completely jingles yourself on landing in E:D (if you have shields up, you tend to bounce even from impacts that should have left nothing but a glowing crater). Not that a properly determined commander couldn't do it, though...

[@Isshova]

@@GaldirEonai but there also explores like me that forget to fit a shield and botch a planetary landing lol

[@Gibby34340]

@@Isshova Bruh, landing on planets is so easy. Not only does the computer literally control your throttle AND your ascension glide into the lower atmosphere, it shows you EXACTLY how to position your ship's hull to align with the terrain. You can literally enter into a planet's orbit, point directly at a target settlement I wanna land at, wait until the glide ends and auto-dock without once having to even steer at all. Elite REALLY has become easy-mode. lol

[@zameliz]

@@Gibby34340 But that would require an auto dock module to be installed taking up space from far more useful things. Also auto dock is for losers and beta-males anyway while REAL MEN convinces themselves that "I can do it" and proceed to perfrom a perfect 10 point Jingles landing and blowing their ship up :D On that note I have blown up my ship only once while landing, said landing was on a land base :D :D :D

“Didn’t know they went up to threat level 7!” Oh yes, Jingles, they go even higher too! All the way up to 9. And each level will determine what ‘goid variant you’ll encounter. 5-6: Cyclops 6-7: Basilisks 7-8: Medusas 8-9: Hydras With anything lower usually being just the scouts.

[@KintchD]

Oooh, Jingles. :D You had that Thargoid wake targeted; and if you scanned a wake then have it as your target and then you attempt a jump, your FSD will try to follow the ship that left it behind... and since Thargoids buggered off to, eh, witchspace, I guess?, your FSD was basically like "NOPE!".

Just to clearify, from the "research" I did myself... Flying into the Plaedies sector and looking around for dem Thargoids- Which, obviously, most will know if they didn't get panic and tried to shoot it off the first time they met one... They're friendly to you... until you do literally anything to them that might possibly harm them. Now, there's 2 main categories of space faring ships we know of... The Thargoid Scouts, which are small nimble and incredible fast ships. Those will attack you at any point and will chase you till either your or their demise… or your escape. They are not friendly at any point. The Thargoid Interceptors, come in a couple variants, most you'll see will be the easier ones to kill. Rarely will you face a Hydra, the strongest of their bunch. Now, they will be friendly towards you until you attack… or they have scouts nearby, then they'll attack you, too. There's one type that'll run away from you should you get too close, possibly has no weapons on? Don't know that one. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ You can scan them (with the xeno scanner). You can look at them from close. (to a certain extend) At a certain range they'll warn you by turning towards you and pulling out their... weapons? (they start glowing… kinda pulsating basically, looks very threatening tbh) If you keep close to them, they'll attack you. Now, Thargoids already in combat might attack you too, even if you haven't engaged them at first. I am not sure about Thargoids in the human bubble, they might be hostile towards you or ignore till you attack.

The extra scary thing about thargoids in E:D compared to the other two games. Even if you've done your guardian grind and have got good enough to take the Thargoids on you aren't fighting and coming perilously close to getting killed by Thargoid Motherships. That crash site with at least 3 human ships littering it that died taking it down, thats the Thargoids own equivalent of a player ship. A Mothership is a capital ship on par with a Battlecruiser, which is the bigger nastier scarier NPC only upgrade from the fleet carrier. Have fun with that thought.

[@TrangleC]

This developer seems to rather leave it to the player community and exploits to keep the game playable, instead of fixing stuff. They are way too busy constantly fucking with the grind and the rewards for mining and the such. This game would be pretty much unplayable, if it weren't for all the external, 3rd party resources, tips and tutorials. I played my fair share of complicated games and simulations, but this is the first one where I need tutorials and help with navigating the key binding menu.

Thargoids pulling you out of hyperspace...now that’s a BROWN alert

[@iolair1973]

In the original Elite, you could "simply" hyperspace out of Witch space after eliminating the initial Thargoid attack. The issue was that as you could only carry 7 Iy fuel, and most of it had likely been used by the initial jump attempt. So you could only escape if there was another system very near. The misjump showed you on the galaxy chart halfway between your original departure and destination systems.

There's alot of stupid shit they're not fixing. There's a really bad obvious mining problem with the chunks that you mine. When they're floating in space and not moving ready to be picked up, if they're too close to an asteroid, they don't bounce off the surface like you might think, they go straight through the surface of the asteroid and inside it where your limpits can't reach obviously and commit suicide trying to get to it. You just have to wait till the asteroid makes a full rotation till the chunk comes out of the surface. Pretty stupid. Not sure why that hasn't been fixed or made it this far without being noticed.

[@FlyingMonkeyDeathGod]

Keep in mind an SRV has six legs their wheels are mounted on. I have managed to lodge a brain tree stem in between two of those legs. Ended up having to use the external camera to try and figure out how to disentangle myself. It's not always impossible, and when you do manage to free yourself, it really does fill you with a sense of pride and accomplishment. (But yeah, something to separate the ship or SRV from whatever it's gotten stuck on would be 'preciated.)

I've enjoyed watching Jingles play ED, so thanks for sharing. Elite Dangerous is one of those games that is infinitely better watching someone play than actually playing yourself. 95% of the time you sit there watching the HUD with a few stars to illuminate the emptiness of space, 4% of the time you are looking at the Station services menu, 0.5% of the time you are listening to the Blue Danube whilst docking and lastly 0.5% of the time you get some action or see something interesting.

[@jamielonsdale3018]

Only if you were 4/3 of the distance from the Event Horizon, exactly, and looking at exactly the right angle. Light orbiting the black hole is extremely unstable. It either wants to fall into the black hole or fly away from it into infinity. Only light approaching at the right distance and angle will actually get trapped and orbit. If you're at the range you can see light orbiting, you're well inside the Roche limit of the black hole, and you're not going to be observing anything, because the black hole will be in the middle of tearing you to pieces. Photons not having mass allows them to get significantly closer to the black hole than even an electron could get, let alone the bundles of protons and neutrons that make up the atoms that make up you.

@@eliasvenaas1685 Put it this way, light has fixed, unchangeable velocity. For that light to orbit the black hole in a stable manner, the light must not cross the threshold where forward and the future become the same thing. It also cannot orbit further out, because then the light would not 'bend' under the curvature of spacetime enough to complete a circle and pass through the same place, because spacetime further out is not curved steeply enough. Light ALWAYS travels at the same speed, and ALWAYS in a straight line. The only time that light seems to change direction are A) When it bounces off something, and B) when the medium in which its travelling is curved, such that following the curvature in linear fashion makes it appear to curve. This is basically how everything behaves without the presence of an external force acting on it. An object in motion will remain in motion, until something acts upon it. If the medium it is motive within is curved, then that linear line will follow the curvature of said medium. In this case, the medium is spacetime itself.

On "gravitational lensing": actually all bodies with enough mass can produce the lensing effect, including our sun. The first experimental verification of Einstein's Theory of General Relativity was to observe stars around the the sun during a solar eclipse and see how their positions are distorted according to gravitational lensing effect as predicted by Relativity. The effect for the sun is quite minor compare to a dark hole, of course, but the principle is exactly the same as you described.

[@MinistryOfMagic_DoM]

Also you went to Maia because Palin used to be in Maia, but late in 2019/early in 2020 his base was attacked by Thargoids and he moved to Arque. You can still find his base in Maia and dock at it but all the services are offline. There is a beacon announcing the evacuation order and if you dive into the canyon just under the beacon his base is right down there. Also, yes it is a regular thing in that neck of the woods IF and only IF you have picked up Thargoid Sensors/Containers ever. If you've never picked one up ever you can zip around there all you want and the Thargoids will never grab you. They are grabbing you because they can tell you did pick up their stuff and they are scanning you to see if you still have it. It doesn't matter if you've ever grabbed a Thargoid Heart, it's only the sensors and other bits you can find on the ground that they seem interested in. I've literally killed tens of Interceptor variants, the type that are snatching you out of space, and thousands of scouts, the tiny ones that attack you on sight, and never been hyperdicted in around 4500 or so hours in game time. I spend a ton of time in that region of space as well. We tested this alongside the AXI a while back and if you grab the sensor and spit it out then jump you'll be hit many times, but if you have a "virgin" account that has never touched a sensor you never get grabbed. Not sure why that is the trigger but it is. Interesting to watch Elite content through a new players eyes though. Always interesting to see new people getting into the game and discovering the lore and enjoying the fun times.

[@operationangel7940]

First time being hyperdicted by Thargoids, eh Jingles? Here is a tip I use. Hyperdictions are always random in the Pleiades sector no matter what ship you’re using. When you are pulled out bring your ship to a complete stop and let the Thargoid shutdown field happen. So long as you aren’t carrying anything they would get mad at they will leave you alone. Plus, it preserves the integrity of your modules for the most part. Every frameshift malfunction I had after being hyperdicted always occurred as I tried to escape the shutdown field.

[@jamesmaclennan4525]

@The Infidel Because the X series was created by guys who wantyed to fill the void left by there not being an Elite game for years that's why.

Space invaders 1978

Bubble bobble, 1988

I think they are possibly picking up on the radiation,emissions from the crashed ship that your SRV got exposed to, pulling you 'dicting you to check you aren't a grave robber, then letting you go

[@matthewdunstone4431]

Jingles; yes, light is often reflected of surfaces but it can also be emitted from surfaces. Take a regular sun, for instance. Or your computer monitor. Or a light bulb.

[@NJbldragon]

Jingles approaching the black hole had me just as nervous as the thargoid encounter.

[@AdamSmith-kq6ys]

Hi Jingles, yes, tinkering with Thargoid stuff will make you fair game for hyperdictions. And yes, Palin _used_ to be based in Maia, but vacated in something of a hurry after a Thargoid strike destroyed his lab there.

[@Depipro]

First contact with the Thargoids? Didn't I see some slightly lopsided interaction with them a few videos back in the same series?

[@PreceptorGrant]

That was in the 'later in this series' teaser reel at the end of an earlier episode.

[@mrpatate12345678]

Jingles: spending five minutes to explain that a black hole is invisible to the naked eye. Also Jingles : Its full of tourists enjoying the view! Also yes: Pailin has moved.

yesterday I saw a vid. I think it was a dolphin or an orca. She got hyperdicted, scanned and when energy was back she gave an angry throttle and bumped right into the thargoid interceptor. Then she was like .... oups, sorry .... I didn't meant it that way and and shot a repair limpet on the thargoid and system info said the limpet was successful. Thargoid was not agressive but always tried to keep a 490 m distance to avoid another bump. ;-) Nevertheless she cuddled with it. :D Thargoid then always tried to position infront of her nose. She hyperjumped through it .... bwahaha. Can't find the vid, but the way she made conversation with the thargoid was hilarious ....

[@SianiAnne]

If you like long jump range, the Guardian FSD Booster is desirable. It does take up an internal slot, yet it gives a real boost to range.

[@jarvis911]

Fucking hell it's been a while since KZbin recommended me a jingles video, it's like seeing an old friend, I used to watch every WoT video

[@wolfsruhm]

Actually Jingles. First Encounter was not an expansion of Eilte II, but the actual 3rd installment of the Elite franchise. With improved graphics (at that time), and some minor changes to gameplay and ui

[@randombiker4610]

Treat level 7 is a HYDRA or MEDUSA class!Glad you didn't check that signal source.I guess the one that pulled you from supercruize was treat level 5 CYCLOPS class,but it looks more like a SCOUT class or the more annoying class.Scouts are more prone to pull you from supercruize and scan you which sets their A.I. to passive aggressive state.

[@Rena_Skuxy]

Normally I don’t watch videos right as I go to bed when you upload jingles. But you know what. You just uploaded and I can’t wait to see what goes on here

[@cynicalfox190]

Love the Red Dwarf reference

[@tananam9782]

22:30 "Elite: Dangerous tech support, how may I help you? Your frame shift has failed? Have you tried unplugging it, and plugging it back in?"

[@stevecobb6001]

WOW. Just keeps getting better and better!

[@jackee-is-silent2938]

Ah, Jingles. Read Admiral of the Brown. :)

[@LesserPandaVT]

when you picked up the thargoid sensors the game locks a 20% hyperdiction chance to your player in the nebula regardless of what you have.

[@robinmaas8844]

C46 wire-frame graphics docking computer classic music mind blown! The memories

[@wheelerzg76]

Jesus, Jingles.. Your pips are driving me crazy!

[@ringowunderlich2241]

I always imagine the ships crew gossip about their illustrious captain. It makes for some funny dialogues or multilogues for that matter.

[@commanderporthos357]

OH my gosh! The mainani system!!! Has the best low temperature diamonds and opal hot spots ever!! 😱Mainani 5. 😩But is also has the biggest pirate population. And no where near by that buys either diamonds or opals. 🙈
