Elite Dangerous - Fleet Carrier Hyperspace Jump Departure (Outside View)

[@Keln02]

sound design is unironically the best thing about the game

[@coverwatch]

Indeed, and the best part of a space sim being its sounds is pretty much ironic as you mentioned 😁

[@TehShinegami]

my jaw always drop when i hear a destroying jumping out of the warp during a conflict zone. it's so satisfying

[@SentientBratwurst]

God is it ever. I've been playing Star Citizen most recently, but I always miss all this. The radio chatter, all the boops and such, it's all so immersive. I even kinda miss the docking procedures...

[@rzu1474]

Elite sure nailed the "ripping a hole through space and time cause fuck lightspeed" angle sad the games dead

[@coverwatch]

I don't think the game is dead, it was never so popular in the first place. It is true that the Odyssey launch killed half the player base but some are returning after years, myself included.

[@rzu1474]

@@coverwatch I think if a game doesn't get a (relevant) update in 5 years, and it's a game like elite, it's dead. Them announcing 4 ships now won't fix anything I feel.

[@Cougar063]

@@rzu1474And funnily enough - right now it's getting the relevant updates the players have waited for for five years now

[@coverwatch]

@@rzu1474 Ongoing thargoid war is actually getting updated pretty frequently nowadays, so there are things that are set in motion. Not relevant if you are just a casual player though of course.

Good to see another Network Affiliated Carrier hard at work (X

[@coverwatch]

She is posing for cameras rather than actual work nowadays, but you can definitely see her at Rackham's when the time comes 😁

Rivetting gameplay... Never thought I'd say this but No Man's Sky is literally better than this now.

[@coverwatch]

I have hundreds of hours in both of them and they both have their pros and cons. NMS' cartoonish graphics never satisfy my itch for realism though. And the abundance of life in the galaxy is really unrealistic in that one.

[@asimplepie2279]

I mean I love NMS in terms of goofy ahh fun but this game is the best “smoke and chill” game for me. Grab me a blunt and I’ll go space truckin
