@@ryiscept Starting out is super difficult in this game, try to find something you like to do and stick with it to get some credits built up. Joining an active squad adds a lot to the game. I started with laser mining Platinum, found it relaxing, this gave me creds to buy and equip ships for each task, that way when I want to do PVE, I just jump in my PVE ship, mining, exploration, AX, just board and go. Odyssey adds a lot to the game, I wouldnt have as many hours without it for sure. I do also spend a lot of time engineering ships, swapping modules to try new builds etc, its like a hobby lol I also mix in exploration when I can, easy to spend a lot of time on this. Looks like they are going to make engineering easier in the next few months, this should help cut the "grind" to improve ships. This is great, as this is one of my main complaints with engineering. o7

They could add so much more than would help keep the game alive for a long time to come. Dedicated freighter ships with 2,000+ tons of cargo capacity. The ability to use 3 NPC-piloted fighters. We have 3 crew member seats, so why can we only use a single NPC-piloted fighter? Ships that are bigger than what we have now, but smaller than a carrier. Price point being around 2 to 3 billion credits. Instanced player housing quarters on stations. Living quarters on medium and large ships. Dedicated fuel tanker ships with massive cargo holds for fuel, multiple scoops, and change scooping to where the various star types give varying quality of fuel. The ability to build an outpost on a planet's surface. Cargo storage at NPC stations. The ability to swap ships without having to offload or sell cargo first. Long story short, those who have been playing this game for years have billions upon billions of credits, with absolutely nothing to spend it on. Give us a reason to.

I happened to come back just about when Fdev let up on the restrictions on the ax weapons and equipment, so I gave the thargoid thing a go, kicking some titan butt, and it was really fun. I am now b*lls deep in this stuff, and the game feels so much more alive again. All it took was for Fdev to make it easier to get into the action. I was a bit crossed with them for tube feeding the community with nothing but thargoid content for years and skipping the rest of the galaxy, but I have full understand inga for that. I hope they are on the right path now.

I return to this game every once in a while. Like in the last 2 weeks i started to do some exobiology and exploration for the first time, with my AspX (only 35 LY jumprange) and I earned staggering 550mil credits but i just don't know what to do with the money - i don't wanna do trading or mining or grinding for engineering, or fighting... This game doesn't have an endgame and that is not necessarily a bad thing, but lately I've been thinking about buying the Anaconda - which would actaully give me the feel like i've reached some kind of an endgame here by buying the best all-round ship, but i just don't know what will i do with it besides exploring.

Been away since roughly the beginning of the Thargoid war. I now find myself in a station with klaxons blaring, red lights flashing and evacuation messages flashing on screens. I also find myself not remembering how to proficiently fly my ship and having switched HOTAS since my last playing I am not sure what it is going to feel like to fly. I keep logging in and then back out not wanting to attempt to make a break and get killed. Lastly I have done NO engineering on any ships. Engineering and the war have never interested me. I like to explore planets and engage in missions from the board and some mining and bounty hunting in the asteroids. I find the environment of the game quite beautiful to look at which helps keep me exploring. I have played with some of the Odyssey gameplay which is ok for a while. But there are other games to play (X4 and Star Citizen) and they pull me away after a time.

Been away since 2016, so 8 years. Left a rookie, only 110 hours play because life, came back a total rookie trying to relearn it. It feels harder now to get back into it, prob age. Restarted on the wrong foot by deleting my save game but I reached support and they reinstated it. Had some cash, 250k, thought it was a lot, it’s not but it’s better than nothing. Then went out after doing some of the tutorials and crap, I ran out of gas…. While I was offline… 😂 forgot that once in space, you stay there unless you bring her back in! But I didn’t know how to get to the other side of the star to jump to my route! I was reading up on how to route when the thing went kaboom behind the game menu. Radical! Can’t make this shit up, I tell ya. Anyway, now I’m parked in a station and watching a lot more videos before I step out again. That’s my story of return so far… oh, one more thing, though I’m a rookie here, back in the day I played and achieved Elite status on the original Elite for the Acorn Electron microcomputer (BBC micro’s little cousin). That’s some OG shit, lots of fun at the time. ☺️

Too bad, carrier upkeep isn't going away. I haven't touched ED in a year but lately started playing again. I would love to own a carrier but the risk of losing it when taking a longer break from the game and being forced to constantly grind money for the upkeep, kills all fun for me. At least, the new ships might bring a little fresh motivation. The new feature will definitely not be ship internals (although it would be cool). I'm also not expecting atmospheric landings, which would be nice. Hopefully, it's not going to be crap like space legs. But we can be sure, it's going to be another grind on top of the other grinds. I've lost all confidence, FD are going to make the game more fun. I've seen too many nerfs and levels of grind instead.

This game is 10 years behind Star Citizen in every technical aspect. A new ship that brings what?? Nothing we can’t do already. You want to really impress the community?? Add ship interiors , atmospheric planets , EVA , ship boarding are just a few examples. Hell you don’t even experience G Forces while flying your ships. The physics model is terrible & the space stations have smaller interiors than most ships on SC. The Cobra game engine is a dated fossil. ED is not an MMO. Since it’s based on a peer2peer network system. That’s why you can’t have more than 4 players in a wing. No wings in multi crew. And only one FC per instance.

Powerplay V2. Arguably the worst aspect of elite and they dedicated most of their time to overhauling it. Good job. Oh aliens? Those cool advanced boss type enemies? Yeah we are removing those soon.

That's probably why they are revamping it to make it better. And Thargoids won't go away completely. It's just the end of Thargoid related content drops

I haven't played Elite for over three years. This is a good game, but the most disgusting thing about it is the ships, or rather their design. When you play Star Citizen, the ships there look like real ones, they are very detailed and it seems that these could exist in real life. In Elite, the ships are made at a very primitive level.

Yes you are correct but.... When you fall threw the floor, get shot out into space when using your elevator in your ship. Not to mention the multitude of other bugs and such. takes you out of the game. Also elites ships are designed for inter galactic travel, where most of star citizens are designed for inter planetary trail.

That's the silliest attempt at a comparison I've ever seen as there are no "real spaceships." A purely subjective statement. You want to know what disgusting truly is? A tech demonstrator pretending to be a game at almost half a billion dollars, over a decade in development but still only at an alpha level.

@@chrisgroves5175 Don't you find it odd that someone that claims they haven't played a game in "over three years" is still hanging around watching that game's videos? Talk about out looking in. What? Not enough of that glorious SC content out there? Curiously, I come across more than a few of these so-called ED refugees all up in SC now on ED threads -- that for some odd reason, have to come back to tell us what we're all "missing." Almost like a concerted effort - - almost.

We should be careful not to call it "pay to win." It's also a pretty negative term--an an insult--coined by players, such as myself, who, almost 10 years ago, couldn't understand why nobody could just put in the hundreds of hours to actually get things organically lol. But then you grow up and you're like, "oh! I see! It's for people with real jobs who don't have much time outside of family and work, to do this stuff... I see!" 😂 It's also a means of combating third party boosting services, who can steal your account: There are thousands of people out there that pay these people to take over their account and grind things for them. If people are willing to spend hundreds of dollars doing that? Well? That's a big cha-ching for developers and publishers. Plus, you're not just funding some person in China who may, one day, have a really bad day and use that account for something else, or take it over. If you're a gamer that maybe only has 5 hours a week to dedicate, most weekends, to gaming? You're not really going to see much progress, or even remember where you left off...or what you were last working on. I've jumped back into games, months after the fact, and then just ended up doing some missions, before realizing, I was in the middle of working on something much bigger with my build and that half my perks or something were unassigned, or that certain items were missing for me to effectively play in that state. And so it ends up being a game that falls to the wayside as a result. And it becomes one of those "oh yeah! I remember that game! Yeah I just could never get into it.." But then? Sometime after that discussion, realize, "That's right! I didn't have time." So it's a good way for someone to jump in, I guess and get a broader picture of the game more quickly.
