newbie

(I would like to apologize in advance for my English) o7 CMDR, Greetings, I'm fairly new -just started flying few days ago! It has been fun so far, and earlier today I have been playing around with changing HUD color, and now i'm trying to change my FoV setting too. I noticed in a lot of...

Hey guys, I got a question. So I started playing Elite in 2017 on Playstation 4 with the default PS4 controls. I'm able to connect my Controller to the game but after doing that the game shifts to hybrid control where I can do basic stuff with my controller like accelerate or control the ship...

I'm relatively new to ED (been at it since April), and decided on Odyssey's release - partly due to the unearned engineer invite bug, partly due to breaking my own sense of progression by doing a website driven road to riches in a Hauler to get an AspX (never found the meta game appealing) - to...

So apparently this is the nearest location to buy a commodity Tutunnyk Biological Facility I have been searching round the system and cannot find it anywhere. I am pretty sure I have located everything with the FSS and there are no UNKNOWNs shown in the navigation panel so I really don’t know...

Here at Lave Radio, we sometimes get requests for newbie tutorials, so our Chief Archivist @PhoenixDfire, took his new commander from the Epic Store around the starter zone. Here's his quick starter guide to @EliteDangerous with hints and tips to get you started.

Well maybe not bye bye, I’m keeping them around, but I’ve just made two successful docks (and it’s so much fun) with auto dock and auto launch turned off, and also, turned off super cruise auto throttle and am flying on my own steam! Only 20 hours in. Every time I played this game before I...

Hi! So I suck at combat and need more practice, and while I’ve always wanted to be a space bounty Hunter like Cowboy Bebop, I have also always wanted to be a Space Trucker! So space trucking is what I’m doing. I’m flying around the newbie area collecting courier missions, delivery missions, and...

I'm an original backer of the game, avid Elite II player from the 90s and played in the pre-release of this game. Bought the Oculus rift, full stick/throttle set up, etc etc. Played cca. 30-40 hours and then stopped. Mixture of work, lack of time and frustration with early game glitches/lack...

I have a commander with ship and 91K in credits. I have been out of the game for years. Should I try to play the commander I have, or delete it and start new? In other words, are there tutorials that will be on benefit IF I start a new character? Thanks!

Since the beginning of this year 2019 (3305) when I downloaded and installed Elite Dangerous, a world of freshness and newness was opened up to me. sure those beginning hours I spent learning the various keybinds to making a graceful or not so graceful takeoffs and landings were nothing short of...

Howdy virtual space folk! In addition to the web version of my super-duper in-depth Elite: Dangerous beginners guide, there's now a PDF version also available for download from Onedrive & Google Drive Many thanks to CMDR Aurelius Borealis for creating the PDF version and Hondahoorz for...

I've started a new Commander and am paying attention to all of the "tips" that Frontier provides. Following the link to the Exploration introduction, I see this quote: I have over 2200 hours in-game with my primary commander and I have no idea what this means unless it's the icon in the...

The Elite: Dangerous University, brought to you by @NovaKaneGaming. This project is expected to last until the end of the year, giving new and veteran pilots alike advice on ​advanced maneuvering, starship analysis, combat tactics, planetary assault and much, much more. 18 classes. 4...

Just a little heads-up to the people not used to a Frontier game: Frontier's modern games have the business model of "games as a service". This means that The Jurrasic World: Evolutions we have to play today is the first iteration. The game will continue evolving with new content and...

Here's an interesting dilemma. I have this, er, Alt.. right.., and he's fresh from shooting womp-rats on the farm. On his travels he comes across a 'Guardian Tech Broker' for the first time. He likes tech, what's not to like?, so he looks into it further. Hmmm what's a Guardian? What are all...

Hello everyone, I'm still pretty new to the game so I thought I would introduce myself. So far I'm loving it. Elite is (almost) everything I ever wanted in a space game. A few things could be added but I understand they are coming in the future. This game is amazing and incredibly large. Anyway...

I'm new to ED and ive done my share of bounty hunting, got the cobra, bounty hunted some more and got the type-6. I am doing trade runs in this now because i wanted to try something new. Im wondering where to go from here? I only ever play by myself and i feel like i am missing out on a lot in...

Hello Commanders, I am a relatively new player and have struggled to learn the game on my own. I have done a lot of research on the internet and played solo to practice. I currently have an A rated Viper and A rated Cobra III. I just purchased an Asp Explorer which is totally Stock at this time...

Hello there! I'm a brand new player who has started just this week, and over the course of it, has become drawn in and hooked on this game. I'm still finding my way, but already have done much and studied even more. Already, I've gotten to be heavily immersed in the universe and everything it...
