Elite Dangerous (Relatively) New Player. Aug 4, 2024

[@andrewmcdonald7286]

I played the original game, and it was fun. Learning how to dock was very hard lol- thank you for your video. I am thinking of playing this new elite game. Just getting back into games. Have a great day!!!!🙂

[@MrAterr]

Very cool I’ve been playing I believe six maybe seven weeks now on and off. Had to take some time off for surgery on one of my eyes and I’ll be doing another surgery next Monday, but playing with one eye is kind of like playing with one hand tied behind your back, especially when you’re used to having both of them. I’m enjoying it. I like the in-depth part of it. It’s a level of immersion that I’ve been missing in many games. Like watching the Terminator between day and night while you’re trying to land, I was not expecting that I have been getting better at everything except for the SRV, that thing needs to go back to the factory and be completely redesigned. They need to take a hint from the movie, Armageddon, and look at the armadillo. That thing could stay on the ground as long as those jet thruster worked.

@MrAterr Thank you for your reply. As soon as I have the money I will play. This new version of elite. I also. Play eve online just as a space miner very tough I have lost a lot of ships.lol. when you have any more tips on playing elite, I look forward to it. Catch you on the in bound....

I hooked up an Xbox controller to my PC wireless and that works great as a controller for this game

[@kushcloud420]

I love this game im not exactly new dont exactly know what im doing but the community is the best when you need help and info no1s ever rude so thats also a good thing 😊

[@prisonerofthehighway1059]

I would recommend the Asp Explorer for your next ship. It’s a great exploration ship and it can mine well enough to get you into a Python. With a Chieftain, an AspX and a Python you can play the whole game.

[@MrAterr]

Thanks! I'm really aiming for a personal Corvette at some point. I haven't even looked at the Asp, will do so when I log in later today.

[@GroveStreetHustla]

Go on a roads to riches journey, in a couple days you'll have a billion creds to play with

[@VilkarinSalvokath]

If you ever wanna fly together add Vilkarin Salvokath in game, I would be happy to run with ya sometime

[@GenX80sKid]

It's never too late to start, glad you're in the community, o7 CMDR.

[@TaylorGTA]

Hope everything got sorted after that house fire, that’s just awful. Good to see you’re doing alright!

[@D4rkM4773r]

I love that new players are coming to elite. It is a great game and we are getting engineering grind reworks soon

[@Gecko_88]

Tip that helped me, on approach to a target in supercruise, get the time to around 07 secs to arrival, then keep your throttle in the blue, if it starts to decrease to 06, then reduce throttle but keep it in the blue, this helped massively in reducing the number of time I needed to loop around

[@MrAterr]

I think some of my problem is Internet connection.. because sometimes when I'm trying to slow down I speed up instead. and I have not been able to figure that out yet. That is painfully apparent in some of my other videos., especially the ones I have not posted., because of the level of profanity coming out of my mouth!

[@hammz28icon]

When you are flying to your destination, that bottom number is time to arrival, You can fly full speed, but watch that number, once you get close to .12, slow way down, adjust speed to keep it close to .12, you can go a little faster as you get used to it, but that's a good place to get there quick and not overshoot. Took a few months off of Elite and now I can't stop playing again, just wish consoles got updates but oh well, still worth it! o7

[@MrAterr]

Thanks for the info!

[@JRo250]

Nicely done! As the proud owner of a Python Mk II Stellar, I highly recommend it as a starter ship. It's expensive but if you've earned enough Arx though playing, it's totally worth it. The two lasers are good against shields but then open up those 4 multi-cannons and watch hulls melt away. This is before you've engineered any components. Take it to a High RES and tag along with System Security (cops) ships to mow down perps.

[@PsychoRonos]

I'm fairly new to the game and bought the Python Mk II. Yes it is a good ship (for me the best I have for combat right now). But I'll say the best thing with it is the zero/lower rebuy costs. It made me felt fearless to go play in the Open server and I believe more people in the Open will brings more lively gameplay to veteran players instead of NPCs. (you can kill us and we don't really get mad about it. Losing stuff still sucks though but I don't really mind.) Plus, the low power plant that comes with the ship kinda forced me to learn engineering (which is a good thing). Currently I am short 7 Modular Terminals to unlock Marco Qwent. Will complete it by today! Can't wait to put those beam lasers on my baby.

[@MrAterr]

Thanks for the tips!

[@DjTasteless]

hey you can identify ,materials much quicker using the contacts (navigation-transaction-contacts)- Greeez!

[@Yonathanmoure]

if you can hold the timer between 6 and 10 you'll bee at the perfect speed to avoid overshooting

[@torquaymouse2236]

Mobius is a good player group to join, play with other players but there is no PvP in Mobius.

[@WildBillMojo]

Yeah....do not shoot the cops. That can put you in a world of pain. Tip....your ship is more maneuverable if you're on 50% thrust; being stationary isn't the best. Also put some pips on the Systems as your shields won't recharge without it. For this type of work I use 4 pips Weapons and 2 pips Systems. o7 CMDR

[@Shadixs]

This game is probably still the best space sim game, but, excessive grinding made me stop playing years ago. too bad..

[@D4rkM4773r]

You need to try this with a decent hotas or hosas setup

[@n00bfest32]

this. it changes the entire feel of the game. i've got hotas but i think hosas is probably the way to go tbh
