Starting the 65,000 Light-year Voyage to Beagle Point (Elite Dangerous)

[@mikey5396]

DISASTER!!! Absolute disaster. I was on my way to Beagle Point. I had less than 2,000 lightyears to go and one of the very few times that I had to take my eyes off my screen to do some work a jump landed me between two binary stars that were very close together. By the time I noticed my ship was already in the process of exploding. I'm back at Explorer's Anchorage now. I've lost over a week of jumps and easily over 1 billion credits in system scans including multiple Earth like worlds and who knows what else. I don't know if I can recover from this. I feel completely defeated.

I love the way you think about and describe the sense of distance when exploring in Elite Dangerous, especially with knowing you have to do it all again for the return leg. It reminds of an experience I had kayaking, where I was motivated to paddle about 15km across a bay to explore a small island. Each leg of the trip took about 3 hours of almost mind-numbing exertion. Getting there felt like crossing a void and entering another world. Then looking back, the dread realization of all that distance I would then need to cover in reverse. All in a tiny boat with the bare minimum of survival gear, and the knowledge that anything could go wrong. Elite Dangerous is the only game in which I feel that same sense of scale and emotional roller coaster of such a journey.

[@MusicForHourss]

I am traveling to beagle point, but doing it by going in a circle around the galaxy. With the same challenge as you are doing! But I'll be also mapping every interesting planet. I wonder how long it will take and what i will find 😎

[@heavybattle6650]

I got a question that I've always wanted to ask passionate ED explorers and please don't take this the wrong way, I'm not trying to be hostile or arrogant in any way. More so, I am looking for inspiration myself. What inspires you to go on these gigantic journeys? Eventually, isn't it true that all you will find is a bunch of good looking star systems with some weirdly shaped mountains on a planet at best? Is this enough for you or do you believe there is something more out there? Like a secret that the developers of the game left for someone to find?

[@TeethedGlory]

To me it's about, a feeling that I'm long way from home. It was magical when as a kid I just imagined being lost in space where no human were before. So in my case it's less abut motivation and more about personality.

[@heavybattle6650]

@@TeethedGlory So it's not so much about what you will find but it is more about the experience of roaming across an endless abyss?

[@holocran7077]

I've set out to make the same journey before only to succumb to space madness. I planned the trip to go from Sol, to Colonia, Sagittarius A*, and Beagle Point with a lot of points of interest in between. I had an engineered frame shift drive and used the neutron highway as well. I got to Colonia after what felt like forever. Then made it 5,000 light years away from Sag A and turned around. Before the trip I didn't know what people meant by space madness but then I got it and now I understand. I can't even begin to imagine trying to do what you're doing. You sir, have an armored mind.

Nearly there myself (about 380 jumps to go). Started last January. Paint job looks like hell.

[@SepulcherGeist]

Epic

[@dustintaber]

I turned off my orbit lines a long time ago because they get in the way of my space immersion. That also turns off the exclusion zone. The gap between max fuel scoop flow and the exclusion zone is actually pretty big so you don't really have anything to worry about by waiting for the exclusion zone to appear. Just watch your fuel scoop get to it's max intake and then don't get any closer.

[@watsisname]

This is good advice. I felt the same way about orbit lines breaking the immersion and turned them off. It also changes the way you visualize distances in solar systems. When you have orbit lines on you rely on them to sense the scale of the system and how quickly you're moving through it. With them off, it forces you to watch the actual dots of the planets instead.

[@carloschaparro07]

When you have the fast route enable, you will have some unscoopable stars on route, that's normal.

But they filtered!! In any case I'm nearly to Colonia and there hasn't been another issue

It'd be cool if Fdev added the Magellanic Clouds to the game. And a new necessary intergalactic jump to get there! With some interesting dramatic implementation, due to it being a much longer type of jump. For the lore, it can say that a wormhole was discovered somewhere, and it leads to there.

[@Longlivethe4th]

There's a slightly closer small galaxy called Sagitarius dwarf galaxy, only 50 000 light years from the milky way's core and there are even some "tidal debris" : streams of (very rare) stars that bridge the gap between it and the Milky way which could avoid the deus ex machina of a super wormhole...

[@ChessArmyCommander]

@@Longlivethe4th Yeah, add that too. lol Explorers will love it. Not that, the Milky Way isn't enough, it is. Its just that the idea of leaving the main part of the galaxy to one of these near by star clusters would be one hell of an exploration journey.

Lol, on my way to Beagle point (about 1/3 of the way) and I jumped to a star just as he jumped to his. That's a good omen.

[@bartykrajewski5123]

I just started my second leg of travel to Beagle Point. I'm going from SagA* to a halfway point 19945 ly away. I'm pleasantly surprised to find out that you are embarking on this journey yourself. I personally have decided against FSD supercharging as as it costs more than it is worth (in AFMU points) and I rather be able to repair my ship after I nod off and accidentally fly into a star. However I still have engineered my AspX fully and it is capable of jumping 74.94ly. Anyway Good luck Commander! o7

[@vincemorgan9640]

I took an apparently largely untraveled route to Children of a Giant. For at least three quarters of the trip there were no distress signals. In fact there were no signals of any kind whatsoever. Precisely zero of the systems I landed in had been discovered previously for one stretch of over 9KLY. It was exiting at first to be the first person to see them, and I mapped a little over 100 of the first ones before realizing I had to complete the trip in a single lifetime. There is much more I could say but what I remember most was my reason for livingness slowly leaking into the seemingly endless nothingness.

I departed the bubble about a year ago in my Dolphin. Took my sweet time exploring inbound to Sag A. Once I got there I hung around for a few days and went to Colonia. Ive called Colonia home for about a month now. Bought a Orca, cruised around the area doing pax missions etc. Just built a Asp X and doing exobiology and exploring west of Colonia. Getting a little bored of being tied down. Just may ride the edge clockwise to Beagle next.

[@mrexists5400]

5:57 carbon, wolf-rayet, white dwarves and non sequence stars are so rare, very very rare in the case of those first two, it's not really an issue for fueling, and some of them will have scoopable stars nearby as well unlike the brown dwarves so it's not really an issue to include them in the filter unless you are in a ship with a relatively tiny fuel tank that can only hold enough fuel for 2 jumps. and those first 2 are so rare that i've never randomly happened onto one, including the several trips i made to vulcan gate and sag a* 12:00 that has been an absolute pain, every time I log back in to restart a trip I have to double check to make sure the route is what I want

[@jazzdirt]

There's not always a possibility of jumping to just stars you filtered.. Sometimes there is no suitable star.. so it puts in some filler stars. Jumping into a star also happened a few times... I survived all those times.. but with a lot of heatsinks and still substantial damage..

Great Video, this reminds me of my journey to Beagle Point: I planned to celebrate Odessey Release at Beagle Point and had almost the same route: Colonia->Sagittarius A-Star ( plus a little quick stop At Explorers Anchorage )->Beagle Point with some special stops for famous systems... I prepared my 48-50 Ly Krait Phantom and was ready to go... A few weeks later i arrived, still on time...even though im the kind of guy who fully DSS-Scans EVERY System; Surface-Scans everything Valuable and makes Screenshots of everything good looking... Then in Odessey i was massively disapointed. As i flew around the Region a bit, i made 1st footfall on a random planet and After looking at the Galaxy from foot i deinstalled the game ( i was completly done because of the Frustration over Odessey )... Now after seeing that improvements were made im back and feel this psychological barrier you mean...i dont want to make the long journey home...but i dont wanna blow myself up...Carrier Rides from BP are rare but its the only solution...idk what to do...im currently waiting for the opportunity to hitch a ride away from this place...in the remaining time i can just watch your videos...

[@jeast9648]

You can use your fuel scoop to kind of Guage where the exclusion zone is if it doesn't load up since the closer to the exclusion zone you are the more fuel you will scoop if your scoop is maxed you know you're right on it.

[@mujexzilla]

The reapers had the right idea.... this game needs some mass relays ;d

[@thetechguychannel]

Fleet carriers don't reduce the time it takes to get there. 500 Ly jumps have a 15 minute wait time plus the 3 minute cooldown between jumps. 500 ly every 18 minutes is poor. You can do 30 jumps on a ship in that time if you're fast and pack a great fuel scoop. 20 is more realistic if you don't take breaks. For a well-equipped ASPx or Phantom that's 1300-1500 ly in the span it would take for a carrier to jump 500. If you're neutron jumping, make that 3-5000 ly, assuming you plot a path that gives you an occasional scooping star and don't have to take a detour to scoop once in awhile. FCs are pretty balanced for explo frankly and people seem to be making a lot of fuss about how "overpowered" they are.

[@neb9058]

Fc’s can allow newbies in sidewinders to travel long distances easily

[@thetechguychannel]

@@neb9058 How many of those can own an FC? If you're hitching a ride on one, you'll not often find someone willing to take people to Beagle Point on an FC due to the logistics challenges on fuel. Equipping an FC with a shipyard and other simple facilities means adding dead weight that eats up fuel you could use for the trip. One trip to Beagle and back is intense. I'd get there faster in a sidey, spend less money doing it, and won't have to have a second FC at a median checkpoint to fuel up for the final leg home.

If the exclusion zone doesn’t appear, you can gauge the proper distance while you fuel-scoop, when it reaches its max fuel input you know the exclusion zone is close. So stay under the max and all is good. 🤓

@@SepulcherGeist I haven't come across one of those stations with the huge greenhouses yet, hopefully they rescaled/designed those for walking in. Or like, on an asteroid base they have an exposed section of rock with fossils on it

I've only been playing ED for a month. Has anyone ever circumnavigated the galaxy? Is it possible?

[@nolife4ever]

Welcome to the community, what platform are you on? And yes, someone has and I think ObsidianAnt takes about it in one of his videos 🤔 might be remembering it wrong tho...

[@rench55]

@@nolife4ever Thanks, I'm on PC. I've been considering the attempt. I keep hearing about "space madness" though...

[@sentriesband]

@@rench55 just be real careful with your range out in especially empty regions of space like Xibalba

[@rench55]

@@sentriesband Thanks for the tip. I'm not going "old school". I spent a lot of the month working on FSD engineering. I have a range of 53 LYs or so on my AspX. Do you think that will do it?

Good luck
