He'd fly ... two Type-9's, an Imperial Cutter (a number 9 Large), a Type-6 with mining lasers (extra dip), a Type-7, two Fer-De-Lance's (they cost about 45 million credits each) one with extra cheesey bobbleheads and a Sidewinder (a large SLF "soda").

I recently started playing again, after 4 years away. Today I discovered that still, the best solution to getting the SRV stuck, is to log out, log in without Horizons, and magically reappear in space. Basically exploiting the game. I really don't think this is acceptable, not after 4 years...

Hi all. I must draw your attention to the following bug report with respect to ship kits in the Frontier Store. Please add your support to it. https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/8703 Warmest regards, Commander No Sleep Demon.

Im not sure what the reviewer is expecting from a A 2600 game. The console was deliberately nerfed so it would not compete with the arcade versions. Star raiders was an influence on ELite.

[SPOILER] It seems that many "explorers" didn't find the new core Mega Ship... so here it is... Mega Ship Name: GRIM EXPLORER System: STUEMEAE BA-A D955

I wonder if the reason for the 4.0 delay is that Frontier are going a code rewrite of the game, to allow new content to be more easily added and maintained. Otherwise, 18 months for Space Legs or Atmospheric Planets (or even Space Legs and Atmospheric Planets) seems a long time. Was the...

IF.... ... Frontier fixes the bugs and minor design flaws in the current game. I honestly believe most of the bugs and broken features in the game are due to Frontier rushing to meet deadlines that in hindsight were unrealistic for their development team. Sometimes the best thing for software...

I have come to end of my tether with Elite Dangerous, i am DEMANDING that the Devs drop all Beta work and come together to fix this issue, otherwise i tell you Mr Braben, i am rage quitting! The Rage generating issue: The Planet Earth on my dashboard always reverts back to a view of Australia...

So I've been wandering around in Open trying to meet other CMDRs while doing my stuff. So far with no luck, even at engineer bases. Then in Decait, as I undock from Farseer Inc, I see a CMDR in an Orca! Woohoo! I target him to give the traditional "o7" greeting. But before I can even type...

Not sure if it's legit info on this blog.

No more Beluga's on my landing pad, thank you so much.

I have been ashamed of having done again and again and again the same thing - but I simply can't hide anymore behind my evil doing. :eek: Alone today when playing and accepting missions, stacking them excessively I did it. Each and every station I visited. I couldn't resist. It felt like an...

Was in my Anaconda and had finally scrapped together enough mats and components to get a Guardian FSD booster. All of my previous fines and bounties had been paid off at an Interstellar Factors Contact and I was heading to the Guardian Broker when I was interdicted. Submitted and killed the NPC...

Post your questions here. For the answer, please refer to the subject title. Best question wins a prize.

If I'm given a parking ticket, then the town that issued the ticket is going to be able to receive payment for the fine. Now let's imagine this town is in Hawaii. It would be ludicrous to go into the town office and find a sign saying, "To pay your parking fines, please visit the Los Angeles...

Does anyone remember when an Anaconda only cost two shillings and sixpence? And engineering was setting a carburettor on a mark 2 Cortina with a screwdriver?

Okay, so I see thread after thread griping about repair bills. Folks, it's really simple. The most expensive part of the repair all button in port is hull damage repair. Everything else such as ammo and substructure repair is pretty minor. Repairs in port cost a lot. You can get repaired by...

'This is not a test. This is your emergency broadcast system announcing the commencement of the Annual Purge sanctioned by the Pilots Federation. Weapons of class 4 and lower have been authorized for use during the Purge. All other weapons are restricted. Powerplay officials of ranking 10 have...

Hi, I have been Overstepping by +3 on my FSD during a phase induction interaction phase. The phase module dropped by 7 !!!! Does this mean that phasing by induction over 3 is OVER the minimal absolute! ??

Hey CMDRS, For anyone interested in Elite content that's more on the humorous/RP side of things, I've been putting out videos recently in a mini-series called "Deep Space Dangus", chronicling the adventures of Captain Spatula as he travels from Colonia, to Sagittarius A on a secret mission for...

For countless generations, once a year, clan tradition dictates we gather together for the annual Wilderness Duck Hunt. The custom is alive and well in the year 3304... This one's for Grandpa. o7 https://youtu.be/wQTZstDBMW4

This thread shall hereby be exclusively about complaints regarding yet-unannounced and potentially-to-be-implemented features. I may or may not have just woken from an Elite-related dream. - ice refreezing over liquid planets REQUIRES weapon installed--if there are no nearby submerged bases...

I just ran my commander's avatar through face app... I'm sure he used to go by a different name... [/IMG] original... We definitely need to have an emotion slider.
