crew

Ok we’ve seen the ideas for npc bridge crew now how’s about the ppl manning your turrets that’s right using the concept of npc gunners that can give reports in place of covas. these are available once you have at least one turret hard point of any weapon also said gunner could be ordered to...

With the introduction of the Krait and newfound popularity of SLFs, maintaining a stable of upper rank crew members seems more relevant than ever (especially for someone who expects to use, and eventually lose, them in conflict with other CMDRs). I've generally found it most efficient to allow...

I've done a few tests with random players and found that right now, as of 3.0, Wing missions already almost work with Multicrew. Namely: Player can take & share wing mission while in crew Crewmembers can accept the wing mission Crewmembers see the mission in transaction tab Crewmembers get...

It seems mad to me that the Keelback can have a fighter bay but you can't bring a friends along to fly that ship. I saw a post on Reddit stating that it was on the roadmap - as suggested in a live stream earlier this year. Is this correct?

As per title, the punishment of losing an elite pilot crew when you die is just too harsh. Yes it is true that you can inactivate them to avoid that, but what's good an inactive pilot can do when I do have an SLF hangar? Yes, you might also lose your ship if you don't have the rebuy, but for...

Hello, I just wanted to suggest to add more Cockpit Customizations to the game. For example plastic dinosaurs like in Firefly (NO BOBBLEHEADS!), cups, cans etc. to look more liveable. I also appreciate all the raider kits but especially on/in a Cutter it doesn't really fit, so kits for Cockpits...

Greetings Commanders! (and hopefully at least one developer - fingers crossed) I'm going to be posting a few threads today of suggestions I have made on Reddit and Twitter, as I've been advised that this is where they're most likely to be seen. I'm going to try to be as concise as possible as I...

Posted this on one of the Facebook groups the other day but posting it here for consideration in the roadmap: NPC Multi crew where firstly they will warn you (cue different voices associated with crew) that a module is taking damage but you can then instruct them to start repairs. You could...

Do you have an NPC Crew member you're attached to? Do you prefer to fly in a non-SLF compatible ship? Ever wish your crewmember could be more useful outside of SLF? Then I have the solution for you! Upgrade your Crewmember to your Wingman! Upgrading your crew brings multiple benefits: 1.)...

Last night I spent a lot of my time gathering research data for Ram Tah, after turning all of that data in I was surprised with by credit balance not reflecting the reward I got from Ram Tah. Turned out that the crew I left at station took an absolutely huge cut of my reward, even though all...

Well I am an Xbox CMDR and I’m getting a little sick of reading about Beta woes and Engineer saltiness and general whinging so I figured I’d come offer up some alternative discussion. Here are two new ideas for mission types that would require very little effort to implement but, in my opinion...

Has FDev ever said why we can either join a crew XOR a wing? Why not allow the two to coexist simultaneously? I have friends that will join my crew because they're weirdos who will shoot things as a fighter pilot but refuse to do anything but trade as a profession and other friends who want to...

Am I the only one noticing that NPC's aren't g out and trying to run due to the increasing Thargoid crisis? Or not be like "WHAT IS THING?" or "IT'S ONE OF THEM!" in the local chat when they encounter a Thargoid vessel. Or even voice acted lines from Fighter crew such as: "Is that what I think...

I like to look at the back stories of the possible crew I may hire. But when reading through the options I don't find any that I find to my liking. Can we can an option to refresh the crew lounge to find people that we'd prefer to have as crew? Not a high priority by any means. I even tried...

When I played this game with my friends, we did play together in a group with similar missions, but where there missions that forced you to have more than one player precent? How about we make a large list of missions(from a tab inside a station??) that can be beaconed out to closeby systems so...

Hi everyone, 2.4 is now out since couple weeks We now have some news about the beyond season, new ships, news features, improved graphics, core game improvements, All that stuff sounds very great really! But I was hoping to hear about one little but very important detail... Multi crew support...

Please add animated ground crews that can be seen moving around in both the stations and on planetary bases. Elite Dangerous feels like a sterile galaxy. Where are all the humans? On that note please please let us have full NPC crews for all ship types. for 2 seat ships have the job called a...

I would like to see someone in my cockpit. I would like to see those extra seats occupied! The NPC will have the following jobs: Mechanics: you hire a mechanic that can repair your ship (alternate to the auto-field maintenance unit). They can automatically repair the ship in supercruise or when...

Greetings fellow cmdrs, my question to Frontier Development is will we ever be able to hire NPC Crew members for our ship? I think I'm not the only commander that would like to see his ships bridge or cockpit filled with a human body instead of an empty chair. The current multi-crew is...

As trivial as this may be to some I think it could be a neat idea to both enhance immersion and save those all important Cr. When we pick up Occupied Escape Pods I'd love to see the chance of a crew offer at a further subbed cost, maybe not with every pod but some, seeing as these poor...

So I just lost 5mil to replace my Beluga today because the cops decided to turn on me over a 200CR assault bounty that I randomly gained (Don't ask why I was bounty hunting in a Beluga). I've had the exact same thing happen before in Keelback. Granted, of the hundreds of bounty vouchers I've...

o7 Cmdr's Yesterday evening me and a friend (PS4) tested out the multi crew funcion on my conda in an extraction site. After initial trouble of understanding how the gunner role worked we started to nuke down the wanted ships. Comes out, every time the gunner hit the wanted ships i gained a...

WINNER: CHRISTOPHER FORRESTER a.k.a. Cmdr Fozza Ok peoples, just a quick post as I'm just about to go out (I'll put more details later) I have decided to make my Launch Party +1 ticket a raffle for any backer that emails me at this address: lotto@elite-stats.co.uk My wife hates computer...

Dear all, Just as promised, since my website's ad-generated funds seem to be heading for greater than space-station level funding for the kickstarter reward tier, I would like to open the debate for naming the space station! I would love to name the space station 'Andrew Winter's Place' or...

Dear Elite community, As part of my statistics software that is tracking Elite on Kickstarter (http://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=2940), I very quickly realised I could integrate an alert system that recognised new creator comments & then emailed them to me. I did this first as a...

LINK TO KICKSTARTER PROJECT PLEDGE NOW OR FOREVER HOLD YOUR PEACE! Hi everyone! I would love this thread to be made sticky, but that's up to the forum gods.. I do pray for Elite 4 every night, if that makes any difference??? :) - This wish has come true, thank you very much Geraldine...
