Ahaha. I'm going to crack a rib laughing at myself. Auto docking in my python, met an outgoing Beluga. Its giant finwing thing didn't play nice. We both got stuck in the mailslot, and blown into vapor for loitering. 30 something passengers in my hold went down with me.

If you power down shields in supercruise it strips paint faster.

You could just do like I do and not fly with shields ot have more room for passengers.

Thargoids have effects on the paint as well.

Wow. Hull damage actually shows that kind of detail? I've never seen anything like that before. I kind of want to go smash my ship up to see it but, not really.

That’s at 60%, it gets a lot worse. I wish they had hull damage for the other ships as well.

The Anaconda has a lot of interesting details and features because while they were figuring out what exactly the ships were going to have as part of the ingame models they tested out ideas on it. So it has damage states for the armor and hull and even discrete internal compartments which can be ripped open. There are some other ships which go the other way because they were finalized super early like how some of the Fed ships don't use standard utility mounts.

My favorite part of this stream is the chat filled with utterly insane ideas about punishments for gankers.

Nostalgia4Infinity posted:won't somebody think of the people ruining other people's game on purpose I know that's your thing in this thread or whatever your deal is, but I'm not saying that at all. People are recommending totally out of proportion things for people who gank, which is funny. Whether or not ganking is good doesn't enter into it.

just anticipating the salt generated by player """pirates""", friendo. nice projection tho!

Anyone who kills another a player is sent to a parallel instance where they live out the other side of the gank, repeated for eternity.

I don't think people appreciate the opportunity cost associated with ganking. You have to be in a purpose-fit ship, waiting around for the right target to present itself. That's time spent not mining, not earning an income. And a lot of your targets are just going to go 4 pips to sys and high-wake out before you blow them up, too. If anything, ganking needs a buff.

Have some chieftain info:quote:Chieftain - Medium landing pad ship. Mainly a combat ship. More maneuverable than ships of a similar size and will be available to all players who can afford to buy it. Not hundreds of millions. Two large hard-points, one medium and three small. This will be available to owners of Horizons only.

Just getting started with this game. Anyone got a solid keybind list or something for the Thrustmaster T-Flight HOTAS X? I noticed the default one has a ton of stuff without bindings and the only thing worse than keybind overload is that plus trying to figure out if I need to bind some essential function to a key.

The new wing missions look like a huge goddamn improvement. Like holy poo poo you can do a delivery mission over as many hauls as you want, instead of needing to do it all at once.

Hi I hope I'm not too late for Pretty Screenshot Chat And also this isn't a screenshot it's lots of them in sequence and also music. T Tauri is my favorite system in this game. It's outside the bubble enough to feel remote, but only like 200ly beyond the Pleiades. It's got a cool as hell asteroid station, Hind Mine, located INSIDE an asteroid ring, and that station has a shipyard so you can transfer your real good fightin' ship. And most importantly the whole system is inside a fukken cool orange nebula that fills the skybox and gives a real sense of perspective (I am poor, I do not have VR). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pK5LyW0Jk_Y I made a lil video of some of my fights there, because the nebula makes ships really stand out. Sorry in advance for the motion sickness - I filmed a lot of this in a Vulture and an SLF so I'm whipping around a lot. When I have a bit more free time I wanna go back, reshoot some of this B-roll and get some more varied footage (closeups, weapons, etc). EDIT: Shoutout to House of the Dying Sun, and Olivier Zuccaro in particular, for the baller loving music. You can find the soundtrack here if you want to listen to cool drums for space fightin'. Also if you like space dogfighting, House of the Dying Sun is loving phenomenal (and made by a friendly and nice goon, iirc). Sixto Lezcano fucked around with this message at 21:01 on Jan 16, 2018 |

Warbadger posted:Just getting started with this game. Anyone got a solid keybind list or something for the Thrustmaster T-Flight HOTAS X? This was linked to me when I started with the same HOTAS like two weeks ago, it's a great layout: https://www.mcdee.net/elite/binds/zyumgm?replay=zyumgm (profile is at the bottom) NOTE that if you have/get Horizons you'll need to set up some bindings for the Surface Recon Vehicles as well but flying around with that as your basic controls will give you a great idea of how you want to bind that anyways. The binding file is just an .xml I think, so unless you're like me and dump yourself into an SRV mid-mission and then frantically have to bind a bunch of poo poo in-game while system defense is shooting at you it's probably easiest to just open it up and copy/paste whatever you need from the flight control bindings sometime out of game before you buy a vehicle hanger.
