Elite: Dangerous - Horizons - Alien Life Discovered in M45

[@ryanrising2237]

I too forsee some aliens getting extremely cheesed off that we found life and immediately shot at it. Not that there's much else to do.

[@ahmedkasapi9880]

+RyanRising Typical humans.

[@tnbison]

Remember how the Minbari nearly destroyed humanity because their leader was killed!!! Now imagine these "barnacles" are a alien nursery!!! Gonna be good times ahead!?!!

[@IVIaskerade]

+Patrick Jensen To be honest, even if we were given an alternative we'd probably have shot at them.

[@TheSpoonyFox]

+RyanRising I can see it now. A four armed alien walking towards a barnacle holding grocery bags and it drops its bags, mouth agape... "... What happened to my Summer home... WHERE ARE MY WIFI ANTENNAS?! I have to tell Gourge about this. *dials organic phone* You too?! AGH!"

[@tnbison]

Spoon Fox Lol!!!

[@whocares435-z9v]

I wonder if they taste good? I mean, if this was real life, someone would have tried cooking this thing by now.

[@maximm1381]

+Lovenought And putting their dick in it.

[@JagvsShodan]

+Maxim M Scott seemed happy enough to "take it back to my ass(p)"

[@maximm1381]

[@CrimsonGamer99]

Hell, I'd stir-fry that thing back to the stone age with some barbecue sauce...

[@EndZiiel]

+Lovenought Well Asians eat raw scallops and seaweed so i dont see the difference

[@AntoineThisdale]

So within one year, the alien addon will be released for 49,99....

[@cookiejarvis3856]

+Antoine Thisdale no doubt. But i do have a cool name for the add-on... "Elite Dangerous: Contact"

[@AntoineThisdale]

+Dark Star ohh thats good :)

[@XkriskrossX]

+Dark Star So.. Elite: Damned Space Refugees Not on my Planet is out of the question then?

[@Schnittertm1]

+Josh Friedman Why not 'Elite: We're back, did you miss us?

[@cookiejarvis3856]

Nah. You could go. Elite: Get Fucked m8

[@petehjr1]

The Omnicronians from Persi I8 will not be amused.

[@OnionChoppingNinja]

+petehjr1 they already send their demands: they want the one we cal McNeal. Or they will lay waste to our cities with their anti-monument laser.

[@One_Piloty_Boy]

+OnionChoppingNinja Or we shall be at the mercy of LRRRRR, RULER OF THE PLANET OMICRON PERSI I8!!!

[@falcor200]

+OnionChoppingNinja we will raise the temperature of the planet by 1 million degrees every minute intill you give us the one we call mc neal.

[@Olysk8er]

Just feed them some hippies.

[@RyanRyzzo]

Welcome, Zanxbroop! What have you to report about our "Intergalactic Flower of Peace sign" that we have sent to the alien species known only as Ooomun? *Supreme Overlord! The aliens destroyed them - every single one!* ASSEMBLE THE FLEET, Zanxbroop - the aliens want to fight!!!

[@dandude720]

+Evan Kerman the video

[@IVIaskerade]

+RyanRyzzo You say that, but the Elite player base would probably accept the fight with gusto. After all, a dead alien spaceship is an alien spaceship that won't complain when you loot (or salvage, if you're talking to someone official) them for swag.

[@rjmac3095]

+IVIaskerade If I remember correctly from playing Elite as a child... Targoids were pretty much the toughest opponents in the game... not that I'm saying that these barnacles are Thargoids of course!

[@samuelbarber1114]

Now only a year until we see an alien add on for the cheap price of $600!

[@ObsidianAnt]

Good to see Obsidian Orbital was repaired, although it could perhaps be one of the first targets that gets attacked when / if the aliens arrive and find out what people have been doing those their little barnacle sites... :D

[@vonneely3693]

And how long before GDI and NOD start fighting over them?

[@natku1]

+Von Neely In the name of Kane!!!

[@vonneely3693]

natku1 Glad I wasn't the only one who noticed. :)

[@Rpekeno]

+Von Neely Their design does look tiberium/scrin-ish, specially the spines!

[@Don-tg1ns]

DOWN WITH GDI!!! MAKE THEM SUFFER!!!

[@AstroPsych_]

Here's my personal theory: The Unknown Artifacts are part of a massive portal. They all align towards Merope to help calibrate the portal. They're designed to appeal to our quest for knowledge, so we take them all over the universe, allowing whoever is controlling them to better triangulate the exact position of where they want to come through. That way they can perfectly align the UAs down to a single point. The barnacles aren't just life, they're engineered. They've come through as part of the second phase, and once they've been there for long enough and the UAs have all aligned, _something_ is gonna come through. I don't know what, but I don't think it's Thargoids. I don't think that they're even from our galaxy. Because of the UAs' scanning abilities, they know the specifications of all our ships. They know our weapons, 'cause we've used them to blow up their shit. They're playing the long game.

[@Ueberdoziz]

+Ueberdoziz Elite Dangerous: Chapter Seven (Your shit is wreaked.)

[@nateashimself4570]

My god this game has so much potential. I really hope your theory is right. Because that would be bad ass.

[@TheDevilbound]

+DoctorWhoFanBadWolf It was never really known if Thargoids are from our galaxy to begin with though. Very, very little was ever know about them. But, the look on barnacles does look a lot like Thargoid. That was one of the rare posts on this video that wasn't painful to read by the way. A good comment, and a nice theory.

[@Chickenkeeper]

Damn, Scott has an Asp that won't quit

[@goobydntfear]

Alien life! amazing! what can you do with it? absolutely nothing! wow what great consequences this groundbreaking discovery has

[@discoHR]

+ascendence It's a good way to introduce the Thargoids into the game. People destroy barnacles, Thargoids get mad and that's how the war gets started.

[@riuxs.domain]

It's part of a storyline.

[@boabynixon1005]

+Andrew Hirst yeh a story that been slow burning longer than it takes to read war and peace... i do enjoy a good story but for the love of god get to the point at some stage , all this talk of aliens for months and still nothing... change the record or stop blowing smoke up my ass.

[@harrier331]

+Boaby Nixon its supposed to take place over a very long time, if it took place over a week or even a few weeks what would there be afterwards? nothing?

[@boabynixon1005]

+harrier331 this isnt the course of a "few weeks" this story has been dragging on much , much longer ... as i said get to the point , there have been stories before this where it just ended , nothing more came of it .. id doubt theyd take this path with the barnacles but im just getting tired of galnet stories and no tangible related content.

[@travisfarrell9222]

[@bradleybernex7002]

Hello there scott! Wether you see this or not, I want it to be said. THANK YOU. For everything that I have learned from you from kerbal physics to real physics I feel as if I am a new person, the universe is now the center of my universe. Knowledge is one of the greatest gifts you have given me and many others but more importantly you made me think, and from thinking comes imagination. Because you of you I feel as if I am more imaginative than ever, I will never see the universe the same way as I previously have. Your videos have inspired me to set myself up for a future career in any job that involves space, and I am happy as can be learning more about the inverse everyday. And all of my current inspiration for space came from you, keep doing what you are doing scott. Never stop teaching others. THANK YOU!

[@subby280]

this is what No Man's Sky should have been. Wow, I'm impressed with this game.

[@avillp]

I bought No Man's Sky and 2 days later, out of dissapointment, bought Elite Dangerous and horizons

[@Aragonx2]

Then I'am pretty sure you will be much more dissapointed with Elite Dangerous by now :)

[@Ryukushinn]

Why?

[@loge7542]

lmao how are you impressed with this

[@NeoUzzy]

Until they realise this is all the game is, making money to get ships to get better way to make money to then do absolutely nothing at all with that money.

[@QuantumShenna]

I think it's a tad disappointing that no sort of scanners reveal any additional information. While it's certainly possible that there is some way everyone's missing, it means that you either have to choose to shoot at them for a defined gain or choose not to shoot them on the principle. I think principle almost always loses when there's no evidence to back it up.

[@ConnorEllisMusic]

Scott when you land and it says unsuitable terrain stop moving somehwhere else. you have to angle yourswlf correctly to the terrain it will be fine.

[@scottmanley]

+SquaredSpekz Why do you think there was a cut, I was mucking around for 2 minutes before I gave up.

[@ConnorEllisMusic]

+Scott Manley yeah I see that. I've seen those jumpcuts in your other horizons videos, just wanted to help. You can pretty much land anywhere, as long as you are flat with the terrain underneath you.

[@jettpeterson8968]

+SquaredSpekz *as long as you are level with the terrain underneath you.

[@finn5485]

Scott i'm sure you have heard this before, but i wanted to tell you you are one of the best youtubers on youtube. I love your vids and i like how you can be funny but also serious. Thanks for the great vids keep them up.

[@gentrywalker]

Obsidian Orbital is named after everybody's favorite Elite gamer from the subreddit, +Obsidian Ant!

[@jonnytivinan4346]

Eve video...one day...soon? cool video non the less :) love your work Scott, top bloke!

[@CountArtha]

It's cute when Elite: Dangerous tries to give itself a story.

[@badbeardbill9956]

It's not like it's the fourth game in a series or anything...

[@Laxmikeh]

I love how Scott puts his Elite videos under the KZbin "Science and Technology" category rather than the "Gaming" one XD Keep it up Scott, by far my fav youtuber!

[@AlmightyMatthew]

You should inspect LV-426

[@scottmanley]

+Matej Vereš I'm pretty sure that's where the Leathery Eggs at Ridley Scott station come from.

[@JanT]

Really enjoyed this. Keep up the great work!

[@LiarraSniffles_X3]

Anyone know when the full game is coming out? This looks interesting.

[@deathstrik3]

+Liarra “Heart” Sniffles The game fully launched a year ago. A month or so ago the first expansion released.

[@LiarraSniffles_X3]

***** Well yes, but apparently they are charging full price for each expansion, even though each expansion includes all of the non-expansion content, so from a consumer point of view it doesn't make sense to buy it until at least most of their expansions have been released.

[@yugioh1581]

+Liarra “Heart” Sniffles The last expansion will be released in 2025. There's 10 expansions.

[@LiarraSniffles_X3]

Harichi Kashanami I'll be waiting a while then...

[@yugioh1581]

Liarra Sniffles Yep.

[@iidarkeeshach.pnknet-en1952]

this was very fun to watch and very revealing, but im mostly thankful for the editing, im being picked up soon and if it wasnt for your editing, this video would've been wayyy longer and i wouldent have time ^^. So thank you : ).

[@KlingonCaptain]

What is the difference between "Elite: Dangerous" and "Elite: Dangerous - Horizons?" Why do we have to buy two games now?

[@Cragified]

+KlingonCaptain Horizons includes Dangerous. Horizons is a 20 dollar expansion that basically flips the bird at current Dangerous owners.

[@Cragified]

+KlingonCaptain As in it should be a 20 dollar expansion at most for those that already bought Dangerous.

[@MrMartGonzo]

+KlingonCaptain Horizons is the full game, you don't have to buy both. it's only those of us who already bought Elite Dangerous that are getting ripped off by having to pay twice.

[@scottmanley]

+KlingonCaptain You only need to buy Horizons.

[@xavierh.5102]

+Scott Manley UNLESS you have elite dangerous already, in which case you need to buy both :|

[@Hot4Darmat1]

Thanks for the excellent vid. I really enjoyed it and had no idea about this alien life form finding til now. I guess I need to pay closer attention.

[@setsuna1f1seiei]

The real problem with this game is that it takes some imagination, and most gamers have become brainless drones that want the game to hold their hand and guide them through a theme park. The real beauty of Elite is that the players get to provide their own narrative. So instead of whining about the price when there's games like $tar Citizen that are selling players digital ships for real life dollars in a game that doesn't really even exist yet (i've played the current alpha, it's AWFUL) I'll be over here enjoying this awesome sandbox. You won't be missed :)

[@setsuna1f1seiei]

+Gregory Jeffery Also, great vid. Liked and subscribed :) Maybe I'll see you out there in open play!

[@Phyankord]

+Gregory Jeffery they are not selling, they are allowing people to continue to donate money to the game, the ships they get are the developers thanking them for their support. not to mention you dont NEED to buy any more than a 45$ starter pack to play the game. you cant judge a game by its alpha state/content. thats like me judging a apple tree because all the buds are rock hard and dont taste like apples.

[@xtremetuberVII]

+Phyankord EVAing, First person on foot combat, ship boarding as a result, literal player rescue missions involving stranded players without a ship, even without official distress beacons implemented yet, space-hoboing, which mean going to places without a ship, only relying on other players, thus having an already unofficial public transport/taxi system, unofficial cargo runs from point A to B, again even without official cargo implemented yet, and soon to be player trading, and clothing shopping at that. All of these interactions make up more of a sandbox than what I see currently in any game currently released, out there. Indeed, judging an apple before the fruit is ripened is a perfect analogy, but even in this regard, this alpha tree is essentially already giving you a few drops of apple juice.

[@Phyankord]

xtremetuberVII better yet, the apple is only getting bigger and jucier!

[@setsuna1f1seiei]

+xtremetuberVII "All these features that aren't in the game yet make the game better!" rofl you're kidding right? Enjoy getting rekt by some nolifer in his idris on day one :)

[@TheRealMustikos]

haha.. entertaining, Mr Manley! you're awesome! love it and love you! Keep love thriving!

[@AceStrife]

I thought E:D was hyper realistic to replicating our galaxy. Aliens, pff. Wish Horizon's wasn't such a scam; $60 for planet landings is beyond absurd. Being gated from doing something that should be part of the core gameplay of any space sim (and is part of SC/NMS) is ludicrous.

[@COLDDEATHDESTROYER]

+Ace Strife Horizons is a scam, you're right, but ED was never hyper-realistic about replicating the entire galaxy. Its just that a lot of the procedurally generated content is realistic, and the size and amount of star systems is as well. How did you really expect a game set 1000 years into the future to know everything about it? All of the space ship stuff is unrealistic by our standards. Plus, aliens are probable anyway, so don't scoff at their possible existence.

[@nateashimself4570]

+I Got that Nope.avi Ladies and gentleman, if you look to the right you'll see someone's ass getting ripped with some knowledge...

[@Dylan_ispeeing]

+I Got that Nope.avi I agree completely, plus I'll take aliens over no aliens any day of the week

Hey, Scott. You can fire the turret from inside the cockpit of the SRV without having to go to turret view each time. Simply lock onto target and open fire from cockpit.

[@serjherman]

What the hell? Why haven't I heard about this gem, but some shitty No Man's Sky is all over the internet?

[@Aragonx2]

I played both of them, or let's say I tried to play Elite Dangerous about 5 times,, but alway gave up because of the over complicated way you have to play it, and because nearly each planet and space station looks exactly the same, and because of the tedious way you have to warp to another system. If you think NMS repeats itself to much this is even more the case with Elite Dangeorus. NMS is far from perfect, but believe me, it is much better than ED anyway.

[@87Sakiel]

I think this is a very bad opinion.. but each his...... Try having fun with combat in no man sky... The deep control system in Elite is where the fun is at. But yes its repetitive.

[@vbywrde]

That was awesome! Elite Dangerous looks amazing! Thanks!

[@MrRick1719]

They have been teasing the hell out of this for months and months. Something this game needs badly is depth, and they continue to tease it. I would be screaming for them to introduce more things like this, and get the Alien race into the game...if I was still playing it. Got very bored of it months ago. There is no mystery or unknown in the game, go to a handful of systems and you have seen mostly everything. One thing you learn about FD is that they are so bad at game design, and pushing their game forward.

[@dandude720]

+MrRick1719 At least FD has a complete development plan. Not like RSI which got overfed with money, and now running in circles -.-

[@AceStrife]

+MrRick1719 Too busy working on a Rollercoaster Tycoon successor to focus on actually providing E:D with any substantial content in a reasonable timeframe.

[@Phyankord]

+Nico Sänger they are building a game 10 times bigger (depth wise, not size wise) than ED as a first build of the game PLUS a campaign. ide like to see you do that in the same ammount of time as ED, NOT TO MENTION that for SC the entry price is 45$ rather than 60 on launch + 60 for every expansion you want to buy at launch.

[@adarkteddybear]

Viewing this 7 years later knowing the current events unfolding in our own bubble... Who knew we would end up here.

[@Reavermyst]

So much better then crappy NMS lol hahaha

[@naterod1719]

absolutely

[@Aragonx2]

I disagree. Tried to play Elite Dangerous a few times, but I always falled asleep every time I tried it, either while watching white dots flying towards you or driving over an empty stone planets. Maybe this one is the only one planet in the Elite Universe which has life. In my opinion No Man's Sky is much m more interesting than crappy Elite Dangerous hahaha

[@bubrub5564]

No Mans Sky is bullshit space, this is what space is really like. You will find almost no life on planets in real life, thus only a few that we found at the moment can.

[@laserblight]

Real nice video very informative and entertaining made me laugh at your humour. I have an Asp Explorer but its not got D Class modules on it, as when returning to populated space OR travelling to Obsidian orbital, its a hot system, you will get interdicted by NPCs and blasted. I dont have 30LR jump range its 27.5LR. but you don't want to loose 1 day or several days of exporation date. oh and trade your exploration data in at one of your control systems. it will make it more profitable Will watch some more of your videos S Manley. have a good one

[@anita.b]

So an 18 minute long video of him shooting some barnacles and selling them back to the station for a community even, great.

[@falkenherz1708]

"I bet you wish that was possible, hm?" :D Excellent video for an Elite dropout who *will* get back in at some point and tries to stay up to date. Thanks!

[@AllThreeWitches]

The barnacle I visited in Merope was different than this one. On the one I saw, the tops were broken off of the surrounding thorns. Is there a reason for this? Everything else was the same

[@kobracommander9676]

obsidian orbital is named after obsidian ant, awesome youtuber who focusses on elite dangerous

[@MemeicalCarbon]

what are the coordinates? i could never really get a good look

[@DerGeistDesKriegers]

Scott, that sound you hear when flying above the surface isn't your engine, its the sensors. The ships don't have wave scanner but the normal sensors still give you this basic audio queue that there are signatures(POIs and resources) nearby.

[@supernaturalswampaids8083]

The sounds in this game are horrifyingly beautiful! Give me goosebumps!

[@stapuft]

just started in the game, discovered 2 whole systems on my first trip to colonia so far, one of which had life, has anyone seen any of the life on the gas giants with life yet? i was kind of in a rush to go the 20k gap so i didnt explore the planet yet, i do have it bookmarked though.

[@kidecchi]

wait how were you able to jump systems without opening your galaxy map and selecting the system? 07:00

[@zgrillo2004]

for anyone that is wondering about the coordinates of this particular barnacle. its -26.3510 Latitude. Longitude is -156.4070. Good Hunting!

[@DeadBaron]

Hey Scott, have you heard of Evochron Legacy? Same as Elite, but made basically by one guy, and actually does a lot better aside from planet scale and graphics. You can warp away from mapped systems (the only systems on the map are ones with warp gates) and discover new planets and star systems. You can discover planets with life, land on them, and build cities or star bases both online and offline without either being affected by online DRM. Voice acting, combat, fuel management, small campaign, easily my #1 space sim at the moment. It also has realistic physics, your ship doesn't apply its own brakes. You can boost and fly in any direction. Feels far better than Elite, even with FA off. Highly, HIGHLY recommended, check it out on Steam!

[@PolesAreEverywhere]

Oh my God, this game looks great! Wish Mass Effect include one of its mechanics at some point in future

[@TheRuminator]

these things look like they will open up at some point. maybe some organic type mechanism that opens to underground hanger of some sort.

[@twentylush]

this whole new mystery/event in EDH is giving me lots of wanderlust

[@XkriskrossX]

17:44 How very "Elitist" of you Scott ;D

[@toddmiller5322]

One time I was running a trade route between a large resource site for barnacles and a lucrative buyer about 9 jumps away. My second to last jump before the buyer's system would sometimes route me through Thargoid controlled space. I didn't really think much of it, it's just one jump right? Well I was eventually yanked out of witch space at that location and when I came out I was facing not just 1 or 2 Thargoid interceptors, but 7 in a symmetrical pattern. The worst part was they were perfectly superimposed between me and my next jump and I was flying a type 10 configured strictly for trade. I have no idea what type they were as I was too busy flying in between one of the gaps as they were scanning me. As I was engaging the FSD I could hear the sounds of them going into combat mode, but luckily I was able to make the jump and get the hell out of there. I suppose they got tired of me giving them the finger by flying through their space with 200+ Metal Alloys on board over and over again lol. Needless to say I paid attention to that second to last jump point and made sure to avoid their system from then on, which wasn't much longer because another resource took on more value shortly after so I dropped the route anyway.

[@RezStudio]

I have a bad bad feeling about us shooting these things :) Good to see Frontier delivering on the alien life theme. More! Let's be having trees and vegetation (where applicable) and other such lifeforms.

hey guys i just started the game a few days ago....should i be worried about doing things like this? what should i be doing now that i just started out?

[@Fyrwulf]

Nice video, I'm looking forward to seeing what the devs make of this. Although given the way Brits have butchered the language, I don't believe I shall refer to them for any "proper" spelling.

When I can't sleep I watch ED video's and I fall asleep in 2 minutes every time, even in the middle of the afternoon. This game is so mind numbing it should be available on doctors prescription only.

You find out Elite is shallow when you realise you can play with 1 button. When you see that there're no differences between nav beacons, conflict zones and RES, the USS comes to you, you dont scan for them, neither you scan planets, you just point to them and wait. To enjoy this game you need to create your own rules and gameplay. It all comes to the same mechanics, shoot things, transport things and pretend you're exploring. Very simple mechanics with no challenge. The only things that are really well done are the sound and the graphics.

@Scott Manley, is it worth it buying this game?

That whining noise is the ASP's engines. I confused me at first too, but like other ships, she sings in her own way.

I just replayed Mass Effect, and driving on the surface in Elite reminds me of that.

This is the best No Man's Sky video that I have seen today.

I think there is a message in the sounds they make.. If only there was a way to decode it, I have no clue of how to do that type of things
