Post your oldest screenshot from Elite Dangerous! (10 year anniversary)
- Thread starter rootsrat
- Start date
lol I forgot that 90% of elite players are senior citizens now... if y'all have screen shots from like 10 years ago LMAO...I often look through my many screenshots, but today I went aaaaaall the way back and looked at my first ever screenshot from Elite Dangerous.
It 100% isn't the first screenshot I ever made, but it's the oldest one I have. Pretty sure this was in an Eagle, which was the only way to take "clean" photos back then. You can even see the cockpit in the top right
Post your oldest screenshot too, let's see them all!
wow, it's amazing how the cockpit UI hasn't changed at all. after 10 years, the game still has the same cockpit and the same UI. not saying it is not effective but it certainly shows its age.
I didn't find the screenshot button until 2015:
Illegal salvage operation...
Whoa dude... that's some righteous onionhead!

Remember when no-one owned an Orca, because passenger functions didn't exist so it was way overpriced yet totally useless. I saved and saved and saved and eventually was able to buy the most gorgeous ship that no-one loved!
(Eventually some griefers figured out the Orca was exceptional at ramming people in stations, dragging the good name into the mud, but this was before then)

An old video made in 3302-11-14 with my ASP Exporer in the Conflict Zone: Watch on Odysee
Don't have anything saved since before 2015.
Here's one taken from a ring with another ringed gas giant behind

Oh man, I have an external hard drive with a lot of old pictures, from 2015. Here's a few:
Was really proud to have reached the top 5%.
Fun fact, it was the first time I ever went exploring with the Asp Explorer, found this little gem (most likely someone already found it again) and I died due to lag on the landing pad when I returned, I never cashed in first discovery on it.
Sadly I don't remember where this one comes from, my pictures are all "Screenshot_xxxx.bmp", I never bothered to name them anything, a bit dissapointed in myself now when I look back at some photos.

This one seems to be the oldest one I have. Unsure how long it took to build up cr35 million though. It took a bit longer then if like me you were not interested in combat.
