I like Asp Explorer for truckin, since it has a good amount of cargo space and still fits on med pads so outposts are an option.

Fleet carriers would make me actually reinstall.

I wish they had added the current discovery scanner to the game years ago, it would have made explorin way more fun. I'm kinda enjoying rambling around in the Krait Phantom, aside from it's garbage turning.

Toxic Fart Syndrome posted:Dirty Up them Drives, son! Yeah yeah yeah, as soon as I can be bothered to make the trip over to the other engineer.

I think the Panther is due to be added eventually, just maybe not till December but more likely not until next year. I decided to push out of the bubble to Guardian space to try and get some module BPs, luckly for my lazy rear end the Conduit is currently docked in the home station and isnt leaving for the periphery for 5 days or so.

Being able to come screaming in through the slot to dock in an Anaconda and pulling a perfect landing feels pretty good.

If you want a fun explorer challenge, use the T6 for your ramblin. I took mine all over the drat place and had a blast.

Theres also lots of new weird alien space fungus and things to find out in the fringes too. If that leak is accurate we have something pretty stupid and cool coming next year.

Ive definetly taken a T6 with an A-rated standard FSD out to Sothis/Ceos, just remember to pack a fuel scoop.

The Fer de Lance, Mamba, and Krait are all pretty cool lookin snake ships.

# ¿ Oct 7, 2019 14:00 |

Most of the snake named ships are built by Faulcon DeLacy, its like a theme with them. Krait Phantom is really good, probably my favorite ship in the game. Heh... bee ball.

A drone carrier would be pretty fun and game-breaking, and therefore will never appear as a flyable ship. Thargoids only.

Anyone hoping to find the Thargoid homeworld is gonna be dissaponted, considering they're from somewhere outside the galaxy.

There already is wormholes in Elite, its what you use to traverse "witchspace".

I wouldn't fancy the chances of Elite CMDRs vs the average Chaos battlecruiser.

I just fitted a Cobra for long range trading and am gonna do the Sothis poop mines. Any places to get meta alloys that dont involve Tharg ships? Dreadwroth2 fucked around with this message at 02:46 on Nov 11, 2019 |

Anaconda is the best large multirole ship just on the basis that you just need credits, no obnoxious rep grind to fly one of those beautiful beasts.

Someone mentioned X4's spacelegs a bit ago, yeah you can totally walk around instations and every ship in the game. Its kind of neat at first, but you realize pretty fast that it's basically a sneaky way to pad out the game a bit. Also you spend like 99% of the time in your ship anyway.

The Protagonist posted:so did they ever fix multicrew/wings/rovers? they literally have to rebuild the whole game from scratch don't they Considering Elite was originally never intended to be multiplayer, that would be a "never gonna happen". Scott Manley showed off someone jumping their fleet carrier, and it's the exact same capital ship jump thing, so now you don't ever need to see it ingame.

Tommy the Newt posted:Yeah, so the FPS 'module' is what we can probably expect, just hope it's more engaging than SRV combat/archaeology. If its based on the leaks I saw, its a "shoot Thargoids" thing, so maybe they are planning on actually using those ground base things they haven't done anything with? It would be kinda cool to noodle around the inside of your ship, like they could totally do player housing this way. Give me the ability to decorate the personal cabin of my Anaconda, Fdev.

Yeah that's pretty much the most Fdev way to do it, now you can run around an already mostly dull moon even slower!

I always wondered what those weird noises at Farseer is, it reminds me of noises you hear at Thargoid ground bases.

When I had my Exploraconda I just took a SRV bay, there's no point taking fighters for the most part. The rest of my ship was fuel tank and a huge fuel scoop mainly.

It's funny to see people saying the exact same thing I said about SRVs back when they were added to the game.

If you don't boost full speed out the mailslot in your Anaconda with the collision alarms blaring, what are you even doing?

Oh I tried to get data from a Guardian site one time, but getting bounced around like a kickball in a yard fulla angry children made me give up super fast. Has FDev said when Odyssey is dropping? I want to walk around on my special legs.

It's not just you, spacefriend, Elite hates everyone equally.

Whats the number one rule of Elite and EVE? Never undock if you can't afford to lose it. When I was more invested, I always had a modded out exploration Anaconda and a disposable everything else ship I didnt care about losing.
