Absolute insane quantities of work went into this, for like 17 people to actually see it ingame. It's fantastic, don't get me wrong, I just wish we could replay this scene ingame as much as we want to see and hear it with our own eyes, not on youtube like the whole Thargoid thing has been for 8 years. No combat. Just sit there and watch. Like in VR, for instance.

[@pawel7196]

I tried to get to an acceptable level of actually being able to participate, I truly did. After 20 hours of mining, grinding and trying I just gave up. I don't need another job after finish regular work day. Plus the risk of Frontier shutting down servers whenever they want, throwing all effort into the bin? No thank you. I went into a war zone with my python once and got smoked. Really, you can enjoy like 20% of the game without engineering and mining grind but everything else requie a ton of grind and decent ship

I played Elite Dangerous in like, the mid 2010s on a friend's computer when there was just a few planets to look at, so seeing like, crazy sci fi battles is mind-blowing, I don't even know what the game's about!

[@groovern1683]

I love how sometimes I return to games at the most opportune moment - and Elite is no exception now. I returned to it after stopping playing at the time of the release of Odyssey, about a couple of days before the creation of nanite torpedoes and the deployment of a full-scale operation to destroy the Thargoid titans. I have a feeling that after we throw them away, the elite will move to a whole new level, this will be a new milestone in gameplay. And yes, regarding the video, the visuals are good, the sound, as always... there are no words.

[@psyantologist]

Same here. The mere annoucement of new ships lured me back. I was surprised that it did.

[@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat]

it only took their new ceo to realize elite was their cashcow and should maybe actually invest in it again, like a company does

Was this in Odyssey or the base game? Is the base game still fun if you don't own the expansion?

@@Slick10836 I think it is just on the PC version. I'm not sure otherwise, because I just play the full game.

[@Slick10836]

@@lunamaria1048 I understand. But I was actually referring to the expansion which allows you to get of the ship and also shoot stuff with your character or walk around stations. I heard that it has lots of problems and poor performance and I was asking if this event is part of the base game or you need to have the expansion for it to trigger.

[@LanceVanceDance84]

@@Slick10836 Both this and the ability to get out of your ship to walk around in starports or on planets are only available through the Odyssey expansion, which is only available for PC. PS4 has Horizons, which is the expansion that allowed you to land on non-atmospheric planets and deploy the SRV. Horizons is also still available for PC. Speaking as someone who can't afford to build a PC capable of running this, the 'base game' on PS4 is still absolutely tons of fun and totally worth it in my opinion. I do hope that one day I'll finally be able to upgrade and take part in this, but until then I'm happy enough playing Horizons on PS4.

[@Wither_czach]

​@@Slick10836 No, you don't actually need Odyssey for that... Both Horizons (the main game) and Odyssey are being updated at the same time except Odyssey just adds the additional options. I believe Odyssey isn't as bugged anymore.

Is it a good time for a new player to come in?

[@astrnnv]

​@@rokkrElite dangerous turns ten years old this year. It's hard to say whether it's a good moment or not. The game is technically outdated in some parts. It has gameplay issues, grind, long pauses between big updates. But at the same time it's unique, and in my opinion it's the best in the space sim genre. Where one person will say it's a masterpiece, another person will say it's a cheesy piece of code. One thing I can say for sure, if you like the game - there are a thousand hours of content in it. And if you don't like it, it's a thousand hours of misery.

Если эти системы выйдут из строя, то звук пропадёт и в игре это периодически происходит в бою. В целом это всё условность, конечно. Играть в игру, без звука окружения было бы скучно.

The ship's computer converts the signals around the ship to audio for us to hear. Humans as a species are heavily dependent on sound to properly function and coordinate. Humanity has been able to convert electromagnetic spectrum signals to audio since the telegraph in the 1840s, then radio signals to audio in the late 1800s and we discovered interference from space that radios and televisions converted to audio and video from that time to the early 1990s. Modern technology converts EM signals to both audio and visual, for us to hear and see, both for science and entertainment.😁 I guess it is pathetic that you don't know that.😂😂😂😂
