Welcome Commander, Elite: Dangerous is the reboot of the Elite space-sim series which started in 1984, with the previous game in 1996, now it is back after an almost 20 year absence. It features a Scientifically accurate 1:1 scale galaxy, generated mostly procedurally with some artistic direction for locations of note. It has a very good flight model and fun combat, with a decent selection of ships and weaponry. It also has an almost-functional background-sim which involves any number of major and minor power vying for control of the various systems within inhabited space (more on that later.) It is a primarily open world game in that there is no story mode or real direction thrust upon the player when you start the game. 2.0: Horizons Horizons is the first paid expansion to Elite: Dangerous. In it we will be able to land on planets (only lifeless planets and moons with no atmospheres at first) and drive around them in little carts. There will be outposts/starports on the surfaces of planets, which players will be able to assault and take control of in some capacity. Horizons is is the next "season" of content for Elite: Dangerous and will probably cover the next year of content releases, players who purchase or pre-purchase Horizons without the base game will get access to the base game and all Horizons content upon its release. Horizons will NOT include planets with atmospheres, but will have other planet types such as volcanic and ice planets as the year progresses. Horizons will also feature the first vestiges of crafting at release in the form of "Synthesis". Synthesis will allow you to fabricate things such as ammunition and autorepair charges, along with temporary ship enhancements such as one-time hyperspace jump range boosters. To perform synthesis you will need materials you collect on the surface of planets, with rarer materials giving more powerful ammunition or enhancements. If you own the base game before horizons is released you also will have exclusive access to the Cobra MK4, the next in the famous line of Cobra ships. The Horizons Beta started November 30th, and currently there is no stated date for when the actual release will be aside from "December" (many expect it to be the 16th since that's when the base game was released last year). If you prepurchase Horizons before December 1st at midnight you will get a pack of black paintjobs for every ship in the game. Horizons will require x64 Windows installations to run. Horizons Patchnotes What's new in 1.5 - Free to everyone with the base game and being released alongside horizons is update 1.5: Ships Ships! • Imperial Cutter: The Empire's Largest ship to date, it's got the most potential cargo capacity of any ship in the game. It turns slow, but is the fastest ship in its size class. • Federal Corvette: The Federal Counterpart to the cutter, similar in size, but much more maneuverable. It is the first ship to boast two huge (class 4) hardpoints. • Lakon Keelback: A variant of the Lakon Type-6, more heavily armed for when other parties might be after what you're hauling. • Asp Scout: More affordable than the Asp Explorer, but with less capabilities and armaments. • Viper MK4: A bulkier version of the Viper MK3, boasting the same harpoints, It trades some agility for more internal space. Kickstarter backers will get one of these for free when 1.5 is released. • Imperial Fighter: The Imperial answer to the Condor short range fighter, highly maneuverable but lightly armed. Initially only available in CQC mode. Other additions include: • The Fer-de-Lance's reactor has gotten an upgrade to class 6 (use this to try out new builds). • UI changes/improvments • New missions and mission types, including multi-stage missions. • Bobbleheads, purchasable in the game extras shop. "What can I do in this game about space?" You choose how you want to move up in the galaxy, through money, merit, rank, or prestige (though really mostly money) with jobs including but not limited to (in rough order of most profitable to least)- • Bounty Hunter: Hunt down pirate scum and escaped prisoners, and carry out hits on high-profile criminals as they travel through space, then collect the rewards at nearby stations. • Trader: Get a big ship and fill it with goodies, but watch out for pirates! • Smuggler: Trader, but (mostly) illegal, just don't get caught. • Mercenary: Factions within systems will sometimes go to war, and you're there to make some money from the whole affair (very similar to bounty hunter). • Miner: Shoot rocks in space, meticulously gather up the bits that come off and melt them down into something that might be worth some money! • Explorer: Launch yourself into the great black, see the sights, scan the planets and suns, then try not to get blown up on your way back. • Pirate: Hold up traders and try to cram as much stolen goods into your hold before the fuzz shows up. • Salaryman/Powerplay flunky: Pledge your undying loyalty to one of ten powers and do some mostly boring poo poo for a small salary at the end of the week (note: don't do this). • Space Athlete: Shoot other ships in a grotesque gladiatorial fight for your life or something. • Salvager: Clean up trash from wrecked ships and sell it. Possible Future Jobs • Tour-guide/Flight Attendant: Taxi the rich and powerful around in your overpriced luxury passenger ship that is bad at literally everything else! -Future Game Content- There's a lot planned by , but I will only be covering stuff we know is coming in the next year or so. There are many features which have been revealed which are difficult to tell if they will be released at the same time as 1.5/horizons or if they will come later in the year, and also if they will require horizons or just the base game to access, but we have been assured these features will be in season 2. • Ship Launching/Docking: Carry around fightercraft (and maybe utility ships?) in larger ships then lauch them for battle or other purposes. This will be facilitated by both an autopilot feature (which can be used for the main ship or the fighters), as well as- • Multicrew: Crew up with other players in the same ship, which will mainly be useful with launchable ships and planetary landing, but you will also be able to split control of the ship so that one player might fly while the others control weapons or power managment. Not a whole lot has been revealed about how it will function, but it should add a great amount of depth to the game given just what we know. • Commander Faces/Avatars: PLayers will be able to give their commander a custom face using a character creation interface to go along with the multicrew functionality. The limits regarding changing your model after the initial setting was left rather nebulous. • Missions: There will be new missions related to both the naval factions as well as powerplay, along with new types of missions it has been said there will be chain-missions leading you (and perhaps your whole crew) on an ad-hoc adventure of sorts. • Crafting & Loot: It has been revealed that there will be a crafting system coming which will allow players to make sidegrades/upgrades and cosmetic changes to their weapons and modules, such as changing the color of your lasers or adjusting the stats. Crafting will require new resources which have been dubbed "loot" some of which will be very rare or expensive. Most of these have been left up in the air in terms of when they will become available or if you will need to buy horizons for them, but they are coming "in season two". Sources: News post, EGX Livestream, Bobbleheads And if you're not sure about what to buy, here's a handy infographic about the different options (though the lifetime pass is no longer available.) -Technical stuff- The game is available for PC(System Requirments), Mac, and Xbox One. You can get it through Steam, or directly from Frontier Developments on PC/Mac. Xbox live on Xbone. The game supports Oculus Rift, Vive, and most headtracking setups You don't need a controller or joystick, but most players feel that it makes the game much more enjoyable. Here's a few goon favorites for joysticks: Logitech] Extreme 3d pro (Budget option, $23 on amazon, also what I use.) Thrustmaster T-Flight X Thrustmaster Warthog CH Fighterstick (Don't buy Saitek products) See posts 2 and 3 for guides, media, and goon-made content. PGS thread, which has details on where to hang out with other goons who play this game along with special ops and some guides.

Guides/Tweaks/etc. Hopefully we can cover most of the things you will need to know about the game here, if you have a guide you would like here pm me or post it in the thread, will attempt to keep it as updated as possible. -General Tips- • Sell your modules BEFORE you sell a ship, if you just sell the ship with the modules still on it you lose some of their value, if you sell the modules on their own you get the full price you paid for them back. • Buy ships and modules in Li Yong Rui's territory for a 15% discount on everything (which also reduces your insurance cost, neat!) • Always have enough money for at least one rebuy of your ship when you are doing ANYTHING, you will die at least once in a way you didn't think could happen. • If you are wanted you can still dock at a station in that territory, just get inside the station as fast as you can so the cops can't scan you (don't forget to request docking clearance though!) • There are also rarely if ever any system authority ships at outposts/platforms, so those can be quite safe to dock at while wanted. • If there are any stations in a system that don't belong to the system authority faction (look at your info panel or the system map) those count as different territory and you won't be wanted for crimes you committed in the rest of the system (but if you commit crimes while at the station you will get a seperate bounty there!) • If you want to get rid of a bounty on your head you must wait out the timer (shown on your claims panel) or get a player to scan and kill you for it, if you die to anything other than a player the bounty will merely go dormant, and reactivate in full with a new timer if a cop scans you or you commit another crime. • Regular fines will become a bounty at the end of a week if you do not pay them, legacy fines however don't seem to do anything as far as we can tell and are just an idiot tax (don't pay them). • Rank E/C/A modules are all standard and share the same weight, each is simply a performance upgrade from the previous. D rank Modules weigh the least so are good for getting more jump distance. B rank modules are the heaviest, but have more health that any other class, and can have other differences (such as B rank shield cells having more ammo, and thus more overall shield restored, albeit over the span of more uses than an A rank.)

illectro posted:The 'Previous Elite Games' manages to conflate Frotier: Elite II and Frontier: First Encounters. I had literally never heard of elite before playing dangerous, that's why I just quoted the history bit from the last op . If you want to write up some better history I can quote it in the op if you'd like. And I absolutely agree with most of not all of the disparaging comments about the game as it is, but I do feel that CQC is going to be a lot of fun, and hold on to some hope that future updates will be more wholesome in terms of the game at large. But also like a few people have said, it's significantly cheaper to play elite than any kind of subscription based game. Though I do disagree strongly with the way they chose to put out the lifetime subscription, which banks on you playing the game for another 4+ "seasons" which FDev have yet to confirm will all last a year each. They probably would have made a lot more in the long run if they had put it at half the price for people who own the game already, or even just subtracted $45 from the total price instead of just $15 (they would have gotten my money for sure). On top of that I don't quite understand why they only made it available for a month or whatever (which is why I put no mention of it in the OP), seems like just a lot of bad business sense on their part. As far as the actual game content goes, the most frustrating part is that they refuse to go back and do balance passes or any kind of polishing, powerplay is the best example of this, they put in this half finished "thing" about political intrigue and cool factions with unique goals then just left it as basically a framework with every faction having the same basic objectives and only a couple granting bonuses or modules worth fighting for unless you're a roleplaying maniac. It's things like the fact that all of the weapons only come in fixed with one class, and that rank 3 has no bonus over rank 4 besides some extra credits at the end of the week. I mean, they even showed off that they had already made the faction emblems and had at least put them in their dev client to take screenshots for the powerplay promo material, but we still don't have them in the actual game 4+ months later? really? But even with all of those problems it could be fixed to a large degree by just spending an afternoon looking at the numbers they weighted everything in powerplay with, giving the powerplay npcs bounties or cargo where appropriate, and maybe giving us the options there should be on the faction modules. And the same really goes for module/ship balance and QoL in general, if they had stealth added, say, ammo holds/reserves instead of shield cell banks I think everyone would be a lot happier with the combat in the game right now. Anyways, the 1.4 stress test should be starting any time in the next few days, so we'll all get to see what CQC is like firsthand.

tooterfish posted:Elite is currently 40% off on Steam. I'm aware of what they meant, being released at the same time makes them the same release, just because you don't have to pay for the ships if you own the base game doesn't mean you're playing a different version of the game somehow, you're just gated by not owning the ticket that lets you land on planets (or do other things that are arbitrarily branded as horizons content). What I'm annoyed about is that they keep going on about how there will be free content in season two for people who didn't buy horizons, being released with horizons essentially makes the ships into "free season two content" not season one, and that gives them free reign to be very wishy-washy with features being free or locked behind. Additionally being one release instead of two lets them skimp on the features in general; I get that they painted themselves into a corner with these release dates, but that doesn't mean I can't be annoyed by their mis-management. It's also very likely that we won't see 1.5/horizons till very, very end of december, or possibly even january, since their stated release is "Holiday Season" Also I'm going to put something in the OP about it, but it gets less and less intelligent to buy the base game instead of just Horizons as we approach the release date because you get the base game upon release if you own Horizons, the only incentive of any kind is that you'll get access to the Cobra MK4

If FDev had given any reason to expect anything other than the bare minimum in terms of what they plan to deliver I might feel differently, but everything points to them biting off more than they can chew. And you can parrot that it's season one all you want, but it's being released at the beginning of season two, not some indeterminate time before it like we had thought before the last newsletter, and they are calling all of the other planned features that you won't need to own horizons for to get "free season two content" so I don't see the difference. Look, I already own the expansion, I just don't like that they keep pushing back releases constantly, I'm sure(relatively) we'll have something or other come January, I'm just not getting my hopes up at this point that it's gonna feel like the content of two separate releases.

I guess I sounded a lot angrier in those posts earlier than I was, it really started with the semantics of "releasing at the same time" as opposed to "being the same release" (it's the same thing with different words in this case). My biggest apprehension with the payment model they're going with is that as far as I know they haven't said each season will be a year, in-fact it seems like they have intentionally avoided saying such. I guess it's really a wait and see and try to have faith that they aren't going to skimp on the content. At this point having faith in FDev is pretty difficult just because of how they have managed the game, they pile broken features on, then just keep piling instead of fixing what's broken along the way. If you don't fix what's broken your players will go insane. E: Also the idea that players with the base game won't keep access to the loyalty discount if they wait too long is lovely as hell, they could have also stood to make the loyalty discount a bit bigger but I digress.

They really need to add more cosmetic poo poo if it's a matter of cashflow, I would spend another $30-$40 easy on paintjobs and stuff if they had colors for all the ships and cool emblems They need to take a page from Warframe where you could even upload custom emblems for your clan if you felt like forking over the cash.

I have a brief bit about it in the OP, but there aren't really any solid feature lists out there, that's just kinda how FDev operates. But a summary of what will be in the initial release is: Airless rocks will be landable (with volcanic and ice planets coming later, beyond that it's rather vauge which planets qualify for the initial release), at least one kind of rover, and planet-side bases/starports. People who own elite will get access to the Cobra MK4. Later in the season there will be looting and crafting and more planet types (but not any with life). There might be one or two other things listed officially, but I think they were said on a stream and not posted anywhere. They are intentionally vague as always.

Pretty sure you get the cobra even if you don't preorder, you just need to own the base game first, the only bonus to preordering is the 25% off deal which they have said will go away some time before release (which is really lovely but that's what got me to buy it.)

I updated the bit about 1.5 and horizons in the first post, also I put a bit after them about the features that were left up in the air in terms of when they are coming or if they are behind the horizons paywall. Seems like a good time to mention that I'm still looking for more guides for the second post, trading/rare trading/smuggling and exploration are probably the most important (I don't really have a whole lot of experence with these or I would write them), more tips for that section too. I'm going to be finishing up the powerplay guide and writing a mining guide in the next few days. And as always if you want screenshots, videos, whatever by you in the third post just say so, I'm not very discerning so it can be as stupid as you want. E: Also, same as the last thread, keep SC chat to a minimum. I forgot to put something in the OP about it, but we don't need a huge discussion about it here. It's safe to assume things are going just as poorly as ever with that heap of broken promises and sad nerds. AndroidHub fucked around with this message at 20:54 on Sep 25, 2015 |

I would say to people considering the game: buy horizons and play it when it's released, as it is now E:D has very little depth, but knowing what we learned yesterday horizons will add a vast amount of gameplay even with just what we should see in the initial release, with a lot of very good stuff coming later on in the year. And I guess if you preorder it you get the cobra mk4 anyways??? which I had thought was the only benefit people with the base game got, but I guess the joke's on me.

Well, they didn't mention it specifically, but multicrew basically confirms ship naming. I'm wondering how it will work when one member of a crew is wanted before joing a ship that isn't wanted. And what will happen if you're in an SRV/Fightercraft with no FSD and your mothership gets blown up (or just wanders away/logs off.) I get the feeling it will end up being a "you teleport onto the ship when joining a crew" sort of deal, because I don't see how they could overcome these sorts of things otherwise. e: Also there's the question of how rewards and such will be split or if only the ship owner will be rewarded for stuff (which I think is unlikely but we are talking about here.)
|
# ¿ Sep 26, 2015 16:55 |
|
Also I suspect (they didn't say explicitly) multicrew is going to be locked behind horizons, but it would be very cool/smart of them to make it so that only the person who owns the ship needs horizons, and people can join their crew and come along for the ride to "try out" things like multicrew and p-landing. I don't expect it to be this way, but it would be cool if it happened nonetheless. The divide of features is really hard to guess at, mostly because besides planetary landing they haven't said(or at least I haven't seen them say) explicitly that any specific feature they talked about will be exclusive to horizons owners. You would think things like ship-launched fighters, commander customization, etc would be general updates, but it's also easy to imagine how they could make them exclusive. Also, like the livestream, the community post just sorta lumps evertyhing together (including things we know they have said will be for everyone, such as crafting) then it goes out of the way to put the viper mk4 in a seperate section saying it will be available to everyone. I really wish they would just come out and list what will and won't be pay-for content. (Also does anyone else keep typing it as "horizonz" then fixing it immediately? )

I really just wish they would give a clear consolidated list of what we are getting at release and what's coming later. Even just guessing it's safe to assume that multi-crew probably won't be until later in 2016, but other than loot/crafting and ice/lava planets I don't think they have given any concrete answers as to what's going to be coming later in the season as opposed to at release.

I mean on one hand if you got started now you would have about the window it takes to explore the current features of elite in their entirety and be poised to get more out of horizons immediately, but on the other hand you're paying at least an extra $30~ for the package, if you're the kind of person who doesn't care about that amount of money and you really want to play now then go for it.

You don't get trade dividends from mining, dividends only come from trade profit, which is specifically what is made by selling something that you bought. You currently can't share mining profits unless you drop stuff for other to sell, it's reasonable to make the assumption that it would work but e: it is also worth noting that while there is an increase to mining in a res or hazres it's not big enough to really care about unless you're in an endgame ship that can defend itself or you have a wing of dudes t defend you.

For me season 2/horizons/1.5 isn't really about the planetary landing, it's about basically everything else, cool ships, more modules, more/better missions, multicrew, character customization, etc. planetary landing is just icing on the cake. But the mile wide inch deep criticism is well deserved by the game, and it will probably always be there for some people. AndroidHub fucked around with this message at 00:30 on Oct 15, 2015 |

The biggest issue with sothis runs is just the way the following npcs act, destroying the fourth wall, which has been an issue as long as they have existed. There's no reasonable explanation for how they follow you so closely or how they even know what missions you have.
