Elite Dangerous - The Best Looking Locations - Wonders Of The Galaxy

[@thtdiinc6739]

ED is a incredibly beautiful game. I have been playing it on/off for 3+ years now and it's truly a wonderful experience. I am a day one No Man's Sky player and while it's also a beautiful game and experience, ED really does the capture realistic exploration physics well. Videos like this really are a joy to watch.

[@yaldabaoth2]

OMS just has too much to discover. It doesn't feel special. That being said ED was way too little and often repeating stuff.

[@backslash4571]

@@yaldabaoth2 seems to me like there needs to be more procedural content in ed IMO

[@ScotDykstra]

Happy to see a fellow NMS player appreciating what Elite Dangerous does so well. A true space sim in our very own fairly accurate Milky Way galaxy. One tip I have for anyone wanting to play ED is to invest in a HOTAS or stick and throttle for you PS4 or PC. It elevates the experience a tremendous amount and is worth every penny! Good times ahead for both NMS and ED! EDIT: Oh and dont sleep on the ED lore! Theres a ton of really good lore that isnt shoved in your face.

[@Hopper958]

I recommend flying to the sol system(if you have a permit) and aligning yourself up with the moon and sun at just the right angle so you can see a solar eclipse.

[@cmdrmiketv2698]

It makes me happy to see Ant do elite videos.. it lets me feel like things are going to be ok.

[@manonmars82]

Early 2021, we will see if everything is ok☺

[@somedude4805]

Playing Elite makes me feel that way.

[@milo13200]

I would really love to see more Guardian related things in the future as walking around will be a thing in Odyssey.

[@insanegamer23899]

I suspect there'll be more to find at the existing guardian sites once Odyssey releases, but perhaps we'll find new kinds of guardian sites on atmospheric worlds. Who knows maybe one day we'll stumble across one of the AIs that destroyed the guardians.

Once I used a geyser as a windshield cleaner. It works well, I recommend it.

[@Tixsi11]

This must be the only game I hate playing but love watching these kind of videos about. (obviously amazing narrator voice is the cherry on top)

[@spawncap9009]

Same here. Tried 5 times getting use to controls. I'm too old (58) to remember them. I'd be happy if there was a game with these graphics but the easy controls of no man's sky.

[@Medin23]

glad to see you're back at exploration content videos ... that is where you really excel!

[@Rossilaz58]

Woo! Another one! I love these types of videos.

[@carlitoslade]

Stunning game. Currently resting at a stunning location. Hell port. It is 10000ls from the jump star but orbits a volcanic planet very close to a second star in the system. There are some truly amazing sights out there.

[@bengambino9755]

Love this series, thanks OA!! I’ve been playing ED off and on for several years now and I only just visited the guardian structures for the first time two days ago. Absolutely incredible. Best of all, now I have the FSD booster and plan to go on an extended exploration trip. Hoping to create my own distant worlds-like journey and visit a few nebulas, Beagle point, Colonia, and wherever else my curiosity takes me! See you out there Cmdr OA! o7

[@Mr_anderson111]

Guardian fighters are also worth it.

[@ashshadownight]

Either this game and Destiny 2 are my main to play. I love Elite Dangerous because of the relaxing vibes you get while exploring. Destiny 2 is one of those games that is just fun to play on in general. Keep up the great work Obsidian!

[@MrLehi99]

Just bought Elite today in the Steam summer sale. I have been following it loosely since closed beta through KZbin, but I finally decided now was the time to get a taste of it myself.

[@somedude4805]

Very cool video. I've only been playing ED for a few months, and I'm still learning how everything in the game works. I still don't know SO MUCH about the game, but it's so incredibly gorgeous and interesting to explore and see different celestial phenomena, and fly around or land on them! I'm having fun exploring the Guardian sites and unlocking those modules and weapons, and once I think I have enough engineering and guardian weapons, I'll venture into the Thargoid fray. I'm looking forward to it!

[@hairychris21]

Hey OA; you read my mind! Great looking video. Thanks!

[@Kanitoxx]

Funny thing is that you can actually ride some geysers and reach really high altitudes in your SRV

[@Mallchad]

This is why I play elite... These moments make everything worth it...

[@MrRafapantano]

Don´t forget to visit Mitterand Hollow!

[@jameswarner7685]

Currently about 150 jumps from Colonia. My max jump distance is 43.4 ly and it has taken me several months, based on how often I can play. I should dock next week. So happy and its not even something I can really describe to my non ED friends.

[@gjabraham1093]

Congratulations mate, its quite an achievement. I did the Colonia trip last July in a Diamondback X. Enjoy!

[@jameswarner7685]

@@gjabraham1093 Thanks man. I'm also in a DBX. That and the cobra mk3 are my favourite ships in the game.

[@williamsethhawkins]

Why not use an Anaconda? With minimal engineering you could get over twice the jump distance. This gets multiplied further when using neutron stars.

[@HovisSteve]

Very good video. It's important with games like _Elite Dangerous_ to have those moments where one can be positive about the experience to counterweight the not-so-positive stuff (much of it justified too). Same goes for _No Man's Sky_ and undoubtedly many other titles of that sort.

[@SWR112]

I have a kickstarter copy, I backed the game from day one. I’ve never played the game ye as I’ve never got round to buying a new PC, maybe this winter. But one of the things I’m looking forward too is just being the Space Tourist visiting the sights.

[@vivalapascal92]

Obsidian, you should reaaaaaaaly do more videos about cool places to visit 😎

[@pascalmariany]

Awesome video and informative! I did not yet find any Guardian stuff. My aim is exploration now, so it won’t be long thanks to this video. 😄

[@Inverted88]

I don't play elite but the concept of the generation ships sounds a lot like Vaults in Fallout. Very cool idea.

[@jmitch6867]

[@hermanvisser4034]

Thanks Ants. Got my fleet carrier, unlocked all engineers and tired of mining. Wanna go exploring now .. would be a privilege to meet you in the black.

[@vanguardsr368]

Haha that was awsome! You answerd my question from your last Vid. So it's a gaurdian becon! Never seen one before

[@Gro2healthheirlooms]

This is why I love playing elite dangerous.

[@Thrawn655]

Really wish they would flesh out the guardian interactions some more...

[@somedude4805]

So do I. The Guardians are so freakin' interesting and their ruins and structures are fascinating. I want to know more about them, and I want to do more at their sites.

[@hairychris21]

Also; hurrah! Not flippin’ fleet carrier content! Thank you👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@ightenhillsim]

love this as a returnee - sometimes you just need a little push to explore

[@OldManPaxusYT]

lovely - i'm torn between finding stuff organically.....by chance...as you would in real life.... and looking it up on websites.... HOLY SHIT!!! YOU have soooooooooooooo many supporters!

[@darrenmills1235]

Another great video, I've not seen the large space beacon, that will be my next trip... I hope there are some near Colonia as I've just arrived there on a carrier, there's some leaving the bubble daily now so get a lift everyone...

[@NIDFYOU123]

Introducing a range of SRVs such as with increased virtual weight for low gravity planets, increased yields and cargo capacity, longer 'flights' with better control etc. would add hugely to gameplay and exploration and open up a new world in terms of possible mods. Any ideas why this seemingly easy change has not happened? Surely they would take a fraction of the time/programming etc. compared with more ambitious changes while delivering a great deal.

[@alan6685]

Love this series OA. Might be better than your Best Damn Places series.

[@ragingdane7923]

Ive waited for this one for so long :D

[@brothermaleuspraetor9505]

Guess I'll have to keep aimlessly traveling around, hoping that in the billions of odds to one I find a Guardian ruin. Whelp, better get launched.

[@somedude4805]

*Squinting Fry meme* Not sure if serious, or a tongue-in-cheek excuse to explore the amazing ED Milky Way. As if an excuse is needed to check out that cool looking nebula over there, or the black hole some rando at Jameson Memorial told you about. Yeah, better get launched :)

Hey - I went to the exact location - no fumaroles! Are they only active at certain times?

[@paulbowler5345]

Exploration and the stunning places to visit is what I like best about Elite Dangerous. I've just reached Colonial ATM, are their any locations you'd recommend visiting around here?

[@lunamaria1048]

Has Frontier said when we get details on future DLC

[@dereiseblogger]

Hi and thanks for the video. Do the ancient guardian ruins show on a FSS scan?

[@chrishexx3360]

I'm really hoping that planetary tech gets a serious overhaul in the update. While the game can manage to make barren rocks look nice quite often, being able to fly over a wider variety of more richly detailed and realistic environments would be lovely, especially in VR.

[@Mallchad]

planetary tech is the main fo us of the next major update. The confirmed or upcoming changes will be light atmospheres, improved generation (I believe they will introduce rocks and maybe other overhangs) they have also been workong on icy planets for a few years now.

[@chrishexx3360]

Well the planet still looked like crap in the Odyssey trailer, so we will just have to wait and see what they have accomplished in the years of development.

[@Mallchad]

@@chrishexx3360 I mean, it's no Star Citizen or DCS World. but it's better than what we had. Which also was better that than the first iteration in 2.0

[@johneriksson9356]

I know this might be dumb question but why is it so hard too find void opals hotspots in icey rocks even with puls scanner, prospect limpet and detailed surface scanner?. And yes I do have all the explosive things that should get the job done

[@chloedarbyshire-brown2938]

I wouldn't say its hard, id say you're unlucky. if your entering a ring at a hotspot then there should be some. though if I can ask, why void opals? if it's for money then Low-Temperature Diamonds are a better choice

[@nulex8255]

Chloe Darbyshire-Brown Depends on who you are selling them to. Unless they have nerfed that aswell. Been a long time since i mined. Only did it for the Anaconda and i’ve been sailing the vast ocean of stars ever since. o7 Commander

[@Ichinin]

Geysers can also make you and your SRV go WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!

I discovered this by accident. Followed shortly by a quick lesson on importance of bringing a spare SRV.

[@frankshailes3205]

Where is part 1? I can't find it in the playlists.

[@Yinzermakesvids]

How close to black holes can you get? I'm always so scared to go near them because I'm so far away from the bubble I don't want to blow up or die and then lose all my data that I scanned.

[@CheeseFromOuterSpace]

I didn't try getting close to one myself, but from what iv'e heard and seen on youtube is that you have to really try and get extremely close to start taking heat damage. Neutron stars and especially white dwarves seem much more dangerous

[@goldfinger-9992]

Brandon T. You’ll drop into normal space the same as if you’ve flown too close to a star or inhabited world. You may take some heat damage but I’ve only taken minor damage and I’ve dropped into 20 + black holes. You’ve more chance of heat damage charging up your fsd to fly away (make sure the black hole is directly behind you). Enjoy the light show o7.

[@themechanist7875]

They are not as dangerous as you'd think. If you get too close to a black hole you'll hit the exculsion zone and be dropped out of supercruise and take like 1% of hull damage. Only when your FSD is charging to go back into supercruise heat level starts rising fast and you'll need to deploy a heatsink to counter it. Same goes for neutron stars and white dwarves UNLESS you are unlucky enough to drop out of supercruise while inside of the gamma ray cone. If that happens you are pretty much dead so be extra cautious around these :)

[@saxonlight]

I played this game about a year ago. The dust particles (or whatever they are) flying past when traveling at high velocity I found annoying. Also going in and out of warp was awkward. Going from low speeds to high speed was disjointed combersome... really ruined the flow feel of the game.

[@Nik531]

Is there anyone black holes undercoved..

[@cobaliufloof4198]

I can barely understand what you just said but i'll try to answer. Thousands of Black Holes have been discovered There are still thousands, maybe even millions, of black holes that have never been touched Yes, Black Holes are in the game. I hope I have answered your question. If I didn't please clarify what you mean.

[@ashcosmo3854]

The game is just a screenshot simulator. Landing on planets bought nothing more than pretty screenshots. I hope no one's getting hyped for atmospheric planets. Can't wait to take more screenshots but the sky is blue this time.

[@Pichuscute]

TIL all of these things exist in the game. Frontier have apparently done an awful job at letting people know about all this content, as I thought I'd pretty much seen it all already and I didn't know any of these things were in the game. Lmao.

Too bad humanity will never create an FTL drive and travel the stars. The best we can do are generational ships.

[@josephscottadams39]

This is true. The laws of physics are immutable and cannot be broken.

[@TheNeognostic]

I dunno - alcubierre drives could be more than a theoretical idea in the distant future - if only they can figure out a way to overcome the energy economy of such a system - they've already shrunk the theoretical requirements dramatically through changing the shape of the "bottle" the drive would use to move through spacetime.

It's good, but also disappointing. ED is such a massive game, and you can pick out 4 or 5 interesting things to do, Compare that to GTA5 or Skyrim - where people pick out not just 100 things - but 100 videos of interesting places and things to visit.
