THIS makes Elite so great

Every so often I just get absolutely surreal moment in this game that just makes me remember why it's THE game for so many of us. Fly safe and enjoy the little things commanders! o7
The recording is not sped up of course

Love that kind of stuff. Funnily enough, I also like doing things on the illuminated side of the planet. The game, however, likes to put all my destinations on the dark side of planets. Always...

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

Lmao yea, its a curse 😂I have to push myself to visit dark sides more often when doing exploration tho, as it can create really awesome views as well 😄

[@Timberwolf69]

@@cmdrHeliaxx Indeed. Like glowing forests of fungoida. On some planets, it might even be better to check the dark side, as the lighting on the bright side makes it hard to distinguish the bios from the surrounding soil...

[@pawn4]

The fact that the planet has a shadow makes it even better

You won't capture that in starfield. Elite Dangerous ....... @Todd Howard " it just works 1000 x better " 😊

[@CapFlipGaming]

Starfield is a dumpster fire. They just make bad games now.

pretty immersive

One of my favourite experiences was an eclipse whilst I was driving a rover out exploring then got an eclipse of a blue gas giant. The light passed through the gas giant making it glow beautifully.

What a view!!

I need to get back to this game. Was disappointed that they stopped updates for the console version so I stopped playing shortly there after but the experience available now is still amazing. Going to re-download it tonight. I have a federal corvette that needs tending to! On PS5 btw.

[@CmdrDjBurp-dr5uy]

Good on you. Not gonna lie, moved from console to pc a year ago. Even built a flight sim rig out of my old driving one for console 😅

[@jacquesdemaille8653]

This game is really great in VR. I need to get back in it.

Is your KZbin name a reference to a book? A book by Patrick Rothfuss by any chance?

Kingkiller Chronicles

@@cmdrHeliaxx That is hands down my favorite series. I have read both books at least 4 times. Im very excited for the third to come out. Kinda happy I made this coment. its a cool connection with a complete stranger. Not to mention you enjoy Elite dangerous which is one of my all time favorite games as well. I spent way too much money on a Virpil setup to play.

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

@@vikings7600 Yup, its prob my most favourite fantasy series so far, read it like 4 times too lol. Sadly Im almost sure the third book will never come out after doing some research about it, which is just such a shame :( And yea its always pretty cool when ppl recognise the reference lol.

[@vikings7600]

@@cmdrHeliaxx I luckily haven’t done the same research as you. I still have a glimmer of hope. There are so many things I want to see happen. I know the ending is going to be sad but I want Kvothe to be happy with Denna. I have a Denna, or at least used to. It struck such a strong cord with me. Is your in game name the same as your Hulu tube account? I’m playing right now

[@cmdrHeliaxx]

@@vikings7600 Ye my CMDR name the same as here. Also same on discord if you have that 😁
