Truly! A Battle Tested Anaconda -- "Fortune Befriends The Bold!" | A Elite Dangerous Cinematics 4k

[@Sighman]

For the missions, if you DO chose wing missions and stack them, then carry them out in a team of commanders who ALSO stack missions, you make 4 times as much.

[@Cmdr_Rhialto]

You are very bold, staying in the fight with so little hull integrity left. I would have bailed out.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Is it boldness or foolishness, the boundary sometimes is not very clear for me...lol but thx cmdr!

[@tallll70]

Works good for videos

[@saifulazrinfoto9993]

Anaconda is prone to canopy breach, must put 1 or 2 module reinforcement (small one). Thank to you, I'm heading back to Ngalinn system to see if I can stack massacre mission to test out my first T10 AFK built. It is a refreshing come back after several of month without playing the game.

[@bikinglikebecker]

make sure to not run out of fuel on the AFK. Energy weapons use a lot of fuel.. This configuration gets me double the parking time for my ship in low intensity resource extractiona. I only have 2 beam laser grade 3(oversize + long range) with the other 2 grade 3 weapons as Multi-Cannon(oversize + extra ammo) for when ships strafe close to keep damage nearer & my limpets to collect more. beam laser works on their shields as they approach. I only have a burst laser(gimballed, oversize & long range) to engage targets and other grade 1 is multi cannon with corrosive shell & long range. all grade 2 are multi-cannon same setup as grade 3 multi

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thanks for the suggestion, yeah it is not the first time my Anaconda's canopy got breached.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

@bikinglikebecker9687 Thx, I didn't know that energy weapon use fuel

[@bikinglikebecker]

@@Foxyloxy.X You will notice on AFK ship after it sits a while. They also cause the heat. I don't have any heat issues now either

[@boingthegoat7764]

I see you like close shaves! :D Welcome to the 1% club! And yes, we need to get some more engineers unlocked for you. You can improve the durability of your ships SO much.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Indeed, I will start engineering very soon

[@tallll70]

Those laser cuts and damage on the ship are quite impressive... I've seen some other videos where the flower creature gets cut off its blossoms, nice ... i remember playing ED asteroids offline demo

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Indeed nice details

[@devoutrelic1228]

Nice camerawork CMDR! Especially love the closeups of the scarring on your ship, which is a really cool feature in the game. I have a deep space exploration ship (Krait Phantom) that I've taken to the other side of the galaxy twice, to the galactic core five times, and all the way around the galactic rim once. I have never repaired the paintjob on it, so uh...it looks really really awful, but in a good way because it just means it's used. It's a nice reminder of the places I've been in that ship.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

That is super awesome cmdr for your deep explorations, I shall do the same with some of my ship when I do explorations, never repair the paint.

[@frankshailes3205]

I never noticed before the DeLacey logo writing on the starboard side of the 'Vette is backwards (you occasionally get things like this with reversed warnings etc on bits of external equipment due to the way the models' skins are symmetrically reproduced).

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Cool little detail you found there cmdr.

[@frankshailes3205]

@@Foxyloxy.X All thanks to your super-clear and inspiring cinematic videos!

[@cmdrtwionix7484]

Beautiful ship, Beautiful fights, Beautiful video) One little advice about the fleet carrier, it's better to be patient and get a couple of billion more than you need for it. The service fee is not exactly cheap. And if you can't pay for its upkeep, then it will be decommissioned. Only part of the funds will be returned, and only if I'm not mistaken. Maybe nothing of his cost is not be returned. In any case, it will be sad.

[@Sighman]

All of the funds are returned less a small decommissioning fee. (100m out of the 5 billion price + all the installed modules)

[@Foxyloxy.X]

and beautiful comments too. Thanks cmdr Twionix, I will be very careful with those cost, making sure I have more than enough to cover for extended period of time, and so far the cost is not too much a problem for me, but the benefit is a bunch!

[@r4dios1lence92]

The fee is quite is quite small (for his income rate), and I think it takes a couple of weeks of defaulting until decommissioning. And since Foxy learned massacre stacking by himself, the costs won't be a problem. The maximum is less than 35 million per week (34.95 million to be exact), so even a single massacre of those can cover. Even with the 100k per jump Foxy will still be fine. But do save enough to outfit the carrier with a few services extra than the base ones. Refueling, Repair and Rearm aren't included by default (at least via Advanced Maintenance), and these (Rearm specifically) adds the ability to buy limpets. Shipyard and Outfitting aren't necessary for you since you can always store/transfer your ships to/from the carrier and transfer modules to/from the carrier and outfit them (these two are only if you want other CMDRs to be able to do so and/or sell ships and modules). Redemption Office and Universal Cartographics take a 25% cut from your earnings so they aren't always useful (only if you need to do BGS stuff and doesn't want to get a bounty/bond paid on system in a way that will support that faction), so those you can skip. The wiki has a full list of the services and more details.

[@lordwontner3936]

Great video love seeing your elite journey o7 cmdr

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Appreciate it!

[@raymobula]

Right on, CMDR! o7

[@trevgsr]

Damn you have been grinding hard. Nice work. May I suggest you take all missions including wing as they stack up. Also consider playing in a wing as you can share those missions, and other cmdrs can share with you. I got my carrier grinding Robigo passenger missions you can make 100million per hour. But now adays exo biology pays the most, just over a billion was the most i got from one session . 07 cmdr

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thanks cmdr for the suggestions, I have not tried the biology, but will definitely tackle it soon

[@Jay_Elric]

Definitely easier to make money in the game today - when the game was first released (and with regular playing) it took me almost 2 weeks to earn 1 million doing bounty hunting/data deliveries with my Viper and then purchased a Cobra Mk III which also had decent cargo space to make cargo missions worthwhile. Now, with the right trade route, you can earn 100 million+ in an hour with a Cutter. Is a strange thing to say, but sometimes I miss being a new player, even though back in 2015 the only goals available with your money was to buy ships and outfit them with A Rated modules.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Wow, I am glad it is much easier to make credits now.

[@Sighman]

Make sure you sign up for the community goal out of Laedla. You can make hundreds of millions in profit per round trip.

[@Ohlukei]

From the raw numbers the Anaconda offers more firepower than the Federal Corvette!

[@Sighman]

It also turns a lot slower and has an exposed power plant (boom!).

[@ricky6608]

More time on target with the corvette though

[@Ohlukei]

@@SighmanIn the first days of Elite Dangerous ships went boom just by destroying the power plant, but Frontier changed that later so it is not that easy anymore.

[@thebigboo5]

Great video :) As always. It's amazing how fast you've got through this game! 6 weeks and you've done all this!! You're getting close to a carrier already. You're also doing so well with ships that I think you're getting as good as you can with "off the shelf" components, maybe time to start engineering? You'll find all sorts can be improved, weapons that run cooler, more lightweight components for longer jump ranges and dirty drives that go even faster to name a few. Also, is it time to fight for humanity against our alien foe (although we started it) the Thargoids? Finally, Frontier Developments official live stream is on this Thursday, you should totally come along :) o7 CMDR

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thank you cmdr, yeah getting the carrier is the first step toward a whole new level of ED game, and will start with gathering materials and officially start engineering. Will also check out the steam.

[@markoulton3342]

@@Foxyloxy.X I would suggest perhaps holding off on getting a carrier for a while, otherwise you may find you are spending a lot of time covering her upkeep costs and keeping her fueled, time that would be better spent unlocking engineers and gathering engineering materials. I have around 8 ships that are fully or partly engineered and it has taken me many months to do so. I could have bought a carrier long ago but I never really had a use for one, I still don't. I would say most people have no use for their carrier. They just buy it to have one, and many regret it.

[@akamekurome4941]

can u make a video on how to keep a anaconda from overheating and taking heat damage in middle of combat please/ otherwise i am running it of no hardpoints so its a mix of cargo and passenger and explorer anaconda rn. thanks

[@Foxyloxy.X]

That is a great video content, as I am also a new ED player, I heard there need a lot of engineering to be done to achieve that, so I will try to check it out. But I don't know if I can give you the best advice for that.

[@cmdrsesslaine8701]

Ahhhhh .. a fellow 1%er ... respek o7 [edit* .... ahhh - wing missions you share with your wing members and everybody gets that payout. Wings of 4 makes them more viable]

[@christophercox4437]

Fox I don't know if anybody has told you this but if You use Jameson Memorial in the Shinrarta Dezhra system as a home base they have every module in the game There and all ships all at discounts. Jameson is permit locked but since you have a corvette you have enough rank to get right in. Just thought you should know that.

[@Sighman]

Need to be Elite in at least one rank.

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Yes I've heard that very often and still working on getting my first Elite rank in order to have it unlocked.

[@DmytroBogdan]

You really should practice using Sys/Eng/Wep toggles, your weapons charge often were depleted while shields were full

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Yes indeed, I shall practice more, thx cmdr

[@Aussie-1979]

FOXY! get onto the community goal this week! ur'll make billions trading gold... u can have a fleet carrier in no time!..

[@Foxyloxy.X]

I am gonna do some research on that, and will make a video out of it, thanks for the suggestion cmdr!

[@nonaurbizniz7440]

I bought this game years ago and abandoned it because it was a big beautiful nothing. Has it progressed to the point there is a living active universe to interact with?

[@Foxyloxy.X]

It is a beautiful game to play and a lot of things to do.

[@nonaurbizniz7440]

@@Foxyloxy.X Well that was the selling point at launch and we all know how little there was to actually do then. So thats been fixed? Not being mean or negative just curious. I guess I could dig out the flight stick and give it a retry.

[@totobill22]

L'exo biologie rapporte beaucoup plus !

[@Foxyloxy.X]

Thx cmdr, will try that biology for sure!

[@windwalkerrangerdm]

Be careful with the fleet carrier. They cost high, and then they have upkeep costs. You'll have to pay some millions every week depending on your configuration. You'll also need tritium to "fly" your carrier. Carriers do not move in real space, they only jump from orbit to orbit. You can't control them to fly freely, or fire their turrets or anything like that. They are also indestructible.

[@Sighman]

True, but once you have a carrier it's trivial to make money. Look at the current CG. Park your carrier next to a station, load up 15,000 units of gold at 50k, jump to the CG system and sell it for 380k per unit. 4 billion profit. Now try jumping 15,000 tons in lots of 780 in a T-9 from systems 200 ly away (which are already being stripped of gold.)

[@BlueSideUp]

I wouldn't worry. FCs are more convenient to move your fleet to a new location than interstellar logistics. You will soon have too many ships to want to transfer them station to station. The upkeep cost is negligible, transfer a billion (that's an afternoon playing) to them, and they are covered for a year. Tritium you can buy if you don't want to mine. Experienced commanders never think about credits in ED. And there are locations only an FC gets you too. And more kits and paint jobs to buy 😉

[@Foxyloxy.X]

@Sighman This comment gave me an idea for another video, thx!

[@Foxyloxy.X]

@windwalkerrangerdm It has pros and cons yes indeed. but I found the cost to be almost negligible for the few days that I owned the carrier

[@Foxyloxy.X]

@BlueSideUp What you said I found to be exactly right. The cost is not really a problem, I need to learn how to mine those Tritium before I jump far with the carrier

[@Pavlo3110]

That is the goal

[@Banjofrogflightvids]

I think it is time for you to put your skills against the Thargoid Interceptors, that will pay more and will give you a challenge.
