Modes Elite: Dangerous from fresh player's perspective

Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
I've been in Open today doing passenger missions near Founders on PC.
Seen 2 people, an Anaconda and a Corvette - both docked and afk.

It's "sooooo dangerous" here, I think I should get more money for my risk.

;)

{Edit, I left my 'Vette and Cutter at home - I'm in a T7 passenger bus just ticking over. Making around 20 - 50 million / trip without using board flipping }

I run my XB1 Commander in the basement when I work out. I use the WiFi down there. Open is a literal ghost town. If they ever incentivise Open play, it will be laughable. If only people focused on expanding PP/BGS manipulations across all modes AND platforms instead of narrowing the entire game. Not everyone has a grasp I guess.
 
Nah we have more important fish to fry. Like our CG this week. Hey, if you have the balls you might run into them then. Same name here?

Ill make sure they record the video of you clogging if you do show up.

That’s funny. Was there too. Didn’t see anyone. Surprised? I’m not. I’ll jump back on in a couple hours and see, you guessed it, no one again. Lol!

Awww can't stand someone being right so you have to insult them and then insinuate that they are a coward by clogging...

what was that you said about people attacking ... just more shoveling...

I'm in Open now on PC, seen 1 afk Beluga so far tonight.
I'm like 50 Ly from Founders, semi afk posting on the forums and not a soul in sight.

And the most entertaining thing I've seen all night is 90s accusing you of combat logging if his "friends" catch you.

And thanks again for resorting to electronic insults to show your true colors. These are some gems. My E-balls that is.

Yes I’ll run my Rhino Hammer Commander. But do you not understand how this P2P stuff works? There is no chance I’ll be instanced with anyone. But go ahead and keep on believing and insulting. It’s how we know that you really know you’re wrong. Q4 quitter, right? Nice back track on quitting on the 3.0 release.
 
For someone who demands we play open mode, wouldn't it be nice if he lived up to his own standards;


Very nice. Which CG and faction is this?
Will it be a trade CG? With all your members flying in Open of course.

Nah ill be in solo and private because thats where the META is when objectives are in play.

We havnt got the full details yet about it. So no clue what we are doing yet. Excited though.

Never said I was quitting on 3.0 release. Wat
 
He did say he was leaving at one point, but that of course like everything else he types was just him shoveling malarkey.

It was on Reddit. He claims confusion about the 3.0 release quit. But he’s all in on the Q4 quit. Basically if squadrons doesn’t limit PP and BGS to Open only, he’s gone.

Ooo that didn't take long I unblocked you for this one lol.

Fact of the matter is I'll do it in open.

Problem with the bgs. If one person uses builds for solo and private. You are forced to do the same.

For example we have all seen those shieldless trade cutters get plasnted and whine on the forums they hot pvpe right. But they have close to what? 1000 cargo space with no shields.

It's all about min maxing for objectives here.

If others do it in the bgs and powerplay. Because of those specific builds you're forced to do the same.

Otherwise you're only intentionally hindering yourself building for open.

He'll just to trigger everyone and their mother. I can prove these points this weekend with those builds for private. Vs some of the pvpers out there running premium ammo and groms.

Wanna see it? Come on by you know where to find me.

Not limit. Ive said rewarding open with better percentages compared to solo and private was on the table as well. Even sent in a support ticket about this before I came here 9 months ago.

Is there anything you won't roll back your morals on to Justify doing?

Wrong. You said you would leave if solo and private group remain unchanged. I’m literally staring at your Reddit comments.

Isn't the forum block a complete waste of time. Look how much stuff you've had to put up with, just to end up lifting the block anyway.
It's not nice being forced in to interacting with someone you don't want to see is it?

Cutter has under 800T without shields BTW. 724 with the lowest shields (I think).
It's the Type 9 that got boosted to more. And yes, those who run either without shields are idiots.
My Cutter has 690T cargo as I like defences and SLFs etc...

I'm in Open, but I'm also busy with my Intersteller Coach passenger transporting near Founders.
But please feel free to post videos of you in Open doing what ever you do for your CG.
I watch quite a few videos from all over, Algo, Rinzler, Majinvash etc....

We had somewhere close to 6000 players in our home system, verified by FDev! And PVP occurred...for the first day...but when everyone realized it didn't matter...the grind to win began in earnest!
