No, it doesn't sound different
Read my previous post:
Was about to head into cinema to watch Assassin's Creed (I give it a solid 7/10. Far from "a flawless masterpiece", but probably best movie adaptation of a game I've seen...) when I saw this series of posts. Tried to listen on phone but was way too hard.
Back home now though with my good headphones and, well, to me it sounds just like any other UA. The sound quality in that video is quite poor which does come through in the UA audio, but I've heard similar distortion when I was listening to UA cuts and I booched the amplification, causing cutoffs and the like. So,, tl;dr nope. Doesn't sound any different to normal.
Just my 40c.
I know that those "has anyone tried something that someone has already tried" posts are annoying but here it goes:
Has anyone tried to reach a hyperdicted player while the "event" is occurring. If you are in a wing with the hyperdicted target do you see his wing beacon if you are in the same system as him ? I know that it can drop you off like 100k ls away from the main star, but it can also drop you closer.
If this is possible you can use the extra time to perform more tasks like cargo scanning, trying to attach a hatch breaker or fuel limpet to the alien

It's a common misunderstanding that Thargoids are from Witchspace. They are not. They are from Ammonia worlds.
The root of the rumor is this sentence from the original Elite manual: "Thargoid battle-cruisers believed to be able to "hover" in Witch-Space (hyperspace) and destroy through-coming craft".
Please note that Witch-Space and hyperspace was the same, even back then.
Thargoid biology is not that different from our. They are carbon based and bread Oxygen. The main difference is that they use ammonia as a solvent in their bodies. We use water.
They are believed to be able to bread unassisted on Earth, if the temperature is low enough (minimum below -34°C).
That joke is so crusty, I loaf the fact you made it.They'll never get their yeast to do its thing at those temperatures
It kneaded to be done.
Oh Crumbs!!

They better bring their beer then.

Hmmm I wonder if anyone had thought to try that

Slow Motion Thargoid Scan

This is an extract from my own encounter on Xbox, I've chopped it to just the scan, and slowed it down so you guys can have a clearer look at what the ship does during the scan, because it does go by quite quickly. Sorry for the video quality - Xbox DVR is awful.

It's been raised many times in the thread and I've seen it myself. I wonder if there is a path to take which increases in 'yellow' intensity which results in arriving at a system of value.

That is very useful. I have added your experience to the database.
In view of the facts, I have also added extra questions to the forms, including UA or UP scans, how long ago, and extra notes for the commanders to add.
Ok, maybe this will help (still we don't know what is means - other than what we suppose what is means <<ammonia planet>>)
Just kidding, move along, move along...

Perhaps the REAL TRIGGER for the hyperdiction is being low on fuel?!
disproven
check out my fuel during the Jump, and than after my controls come back. I'm running mostly on max fuel tank and it happened to me so being low on fuel is very unlikely to be a Trigger. It refueled the main fueltank but not the Reservoir

Dunni, but I'm game for trying it?
IMHO its a thing You experience all time if going to diffrent areas of the galaxy.
If You are passing through fields of A-/B-Type stars, the amount ouf cyan, white and white-blue in during jump increases, if You are passing near a green nebula, the quantety of green goes up, same with blue / violet if passing an emission nebula.
Hence, as Your are nearing Plejades and Barnards Loop on Your way to Maia/Merope, it seems not to surprising to get different coloring during Hyperspace-Jump. TBH during my recent trip (today) to Maia whilst jumping I saw nothing out of the ordinary...
Nice - repped! I tried to do this myself last night as I had a theory that maybe the flickering light, if slowed down sufficiently, might prove to be code (morse?) of some sort (i.e. not the barcode itself but the actually flickering on and off). I didn't post anything in the end because I came to the conclusion it was nothing.

Well, if we can still make alcohol all will be OK. (After a drink or two...)
