A few weeks ago I started my grind of Federation ranks to get the corvette. Once I got to Lieutenant (Rank 8), I took a break from the grind. I came back today to try again. After putting in about 10 hours of grinding and over 100M credits from donations, I have only ranked up about 1.75 ranks...

Is station rescue missions still my best bet? I know Sothis and Ceos kind of work still but are incredibly slow because the board flipping, or lack there of.

The "Vanguard Initiative".. (squad tag: VNGD) Currently ranked in squadron combat as ( 57th ) this season 😊 We Will stand by to protect and serve all those that seek protection from the 'Vagrant's, theives and lowlifes' that assail all honest and hardworking Pilot's federation members...

I have a fed rank of petty officer, but when I go in to some stations it says I don't have the required rank to purchase an assault shop or a drop ship. is this a bug or am I missing something?

Ok. So I just got back from a 1,000 ly exploration trip, headed to wolf 397 to the trophy camp, and suddenly I was notified by the federation Navy ship that I was being "interdicted under military rules of engagement." My first question is; what does that mean? My second question is; I am allied...

Hi everyone, I am saving (and grinding) for a Federal Corvette. Want to use it PVE and was wondering what is a good built to start with? Was thinking for these few: 1. Class 4 MC and Pulse (or Beam) rest MC turrents 2. Class 4 Pulse and Cannon Class 3 MC rest pulse turrents 3. Two Class...

Hi all, I'm out at Ceos/Sothis doing the grind for a Corvette. I'm Elite ranked explorer and only broker trader, and so I found that the passenger missions to Sirius Atmospherics were more lucrative than running data/cargo trade between stations - going from Lieutenant Commander and Post...

Hey folks; I'm currently looking how to finalise my PvE build after the endless engineering changes, and I was wondering what people would suggest...? Here's my current build, and money is no object when buying new parts... A few pointers on what I'm thinking right now. 1.) Missing are a...

Hi. I have just bought my Corvette after a loooooong grind and trying to start another one now (Engineering) :o But before that, I need to decide my builds. I have tried to make some with exp. effects for buff/debuff but need advice/feedback before to start run. Just one wish; trying to make...

The Federal Corvette needs a fix, and now is the time to do it. This sounds strange. The ship is big. The ship is shiney. The ship is incredibly popular to grind for. What could possibly be wrong? The game evolved, and the Corvette didn't. Bear with me, or skip to the TLDR at the bottom. The...

Okay so I got the Corvette yesterday after grinding out the rank and all that. I have it fully armed with 2 Class 2 beams, 2 Class 1 beams, 1 Class 3 MC, and 2 Class 4 MC's. But I'm seriously doubting the usefulness of the Class 3 MC because it's on the bottom of the ship, and I don't know what...

I've once posted this as a reply to a different post, but thought I'd add it here officially. I haven't gotten to play it much because of how sparsely populated the lobbies are, but I'm a big fan of CQC and believe it's got a lot more potential than people give it credit for. Without going...

Hi, as the title states I'm looking for advice on what the current best federal corvette combat build would be for bounty hunting npcs. I haven't been on for probably about 8 months or longer so I'm just curious what the new beat builds May be. Also I'm playing on Xbox so I'm not sure how much...

I currently have an A-Rated FAS. I really enjoy it as a full on fighter. It was the first real expensive ship I ever bought and I used it extensively for bounty hunting and undermining in power play. I was thinking about selling it and upgrading to a Fer-de-Lance, but I worry it wont feel like...

Hi all, I hope I'm posting in the right area for this, I don't use forums in general much. I took out my first mission that involved landing on a planet and deploying the SRV. I had to scan something in a base. My friend told me that I had to disable gun turrets to get anywhere near the thing I...

I looked at a bunch of threads why Python overheats for no apparent reason, which gave me some clues, but some questions remained unanswered... (I haven't played since reputation decay got added to the game. 1.4, I think?) Issue: fighting a single Cobra for 1 minute in a CNB (pretty close to...

Hey everyone, I just bought a FGS and was trying to multi-crew with my two friends who play ED. I have a size 6 SLF hanger and two SLFs, but I could only invite one person to my crew. Reddit threads from the 2.2 beta prior to SLF release mentions you can have two humans pilot your SLFs. Did the...

One thing that I'm somewhat disappointed in with Elite is that there isn't any deeper stealth mechanics in spaceflight. There have been some great books that cover this; Cloak of War is the most recent one I've read that handles stealth SPECTACULARLY in space. I recently got my end-game goal...

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening fellow Commanders Since short I have a Federal Corvette. For the most part I got no problems to build it. But I kinda am doubting what to do depending on it's purpose how to build my shields and Armour. My Clan has given me decent advice, but I decided to listen...

I have mentioned the range before when i wanted a corvette. since i have managed to buy one. This is when it gets silly. i bought one in LHS 28 to get 15% discount, but the default equipment and jump range is so low i couldn't jump out of the system in a direction i wanted. i ended up...

After a few months away from the game, I decide that the best way to knock off the rust is with some canyon flying, FAO, external camera action. This approach was only somewhat effective... but made for a relaxing flight either way. Apologies for the few random "signal loss" faded camera...

Today it is not comfortable but getting requires a lot of work. A small change which will make the ships more pleasant For Imperial Cutter -improve maneuverability to level Anaconda For Federal Corvet - remove one optional slot 7 replace one optional slot 7...

Hello Ive just downloaded Elite Dangerous Standard Beta. It is only a windows version. The website says the mac version will be released 3 months after the windows version release. It will be a native app or a wine/crossover based solution. Anyway, if the developers need any beta testing the...

I have a 2013 Mac Air with 4GB RAM and was wondering if anyone out there has had any luck running the Alpha via bootcamp with one of these. I thought I saw a thread somewhere a while back where someone said they'd managed to do this. If anyone did, how was the expierience? Any tips on...

Apple Mac just a quick question not sure if it been covered sorry if it has. Q when the mac version comes out will you be able to mix with pc players? see as now days there basically the same thing with different os and you just get charged more for a pretty case lol

I did a search but couldnt find an answer on the second part on the forums I have two very powerful Mac's which run.. pretty much everything in Bootcamp. So I could buy ED early and play on the PC.. but my preference is of course my chosen OS, MacOS If I buy ED when it comes out does that...

Joystick waggling! My X52 Pro and pedals arrived today - woo! I am fairly impressed with the hardware, it's solid and seems well made. Unfortunately it doesn't click, and the old trick of holding the base and waggling the joystick has got me absolutely nowhere in Daley Thompsons Decathlon :(...

Elite:Dangerous is going to run on Windows and Mac, for sure. One hopes that it will be able to run on other operating systems, too. Were it possible for Elite:Dangerous to run on any OS, which one would you mainly use? Please answer the poll. Some games, eg Battlefield 3, can be played in...
