I don't have a problem with that specifically. But it would be nice if we had a choice in cockpit glass panelling. For example, you would be able to choose which panels of the canopy are glass and which are steel. That way, you could make a tank with only a forward facing slit (You orient yourself by the radar in combat, anyway, or a full-glass canopy for an explorer. That would be awesome.

The news you've been waiting for... Fleet Carriers.
Take a peek at the initial details about Fleet Carriers, coming as the December Update.

Or something like X Rebirth had with its interchangeable cockpits: the stock one was just that (since you have only a ship in that game, that was what you had before later patches added the possibility to change at least cockpits at all), then a "merchant" one with less clutter and more glass surface, a "management" one more utilitaristic in appearance and a "combat" one that actually was no glass, but a series of panels relaying the outside view through cameras that would light up as soon as you took control of the ship. From a gameplay or actual ship stats perspective there were no changes (sadly), yet from an immersion perspective it was a nice thing, also that with the combat cockpit the more damage your hull took, the more panels started to break down giving only static or blue screen and severely limiting the outside view. Some different HUD layouts would be a very nice thing for ED too.
Nothing spectacular, but I helped a friend getting the blueprint for his Guardian FSD Booster (and we just achieved buying his first Anaconda). We had a very good fight scene with a few sentinels (massive rocket fire with the external camera), but unfortunately the video wasn't stored as planned...

And we had a couch coop Elite session for the first time - really good, much better than online play

Two new videos, also guardian related.
In the first one I shoot a small, little asp stealing my guardian key in front of my nose. I was kind of sorry, but would you steal the prey of a hungry falcon as a little sparrow right in front of his nose? It was down in seconds, otherwise I would've thought about giving him a chance to drop it (but I don't do PvP usually and was kind of worried that he'll wake away).

Second video: me and a friend fighting a sentinel. That means I was filming, he did the work...

Only video I ever posted was one of an average joe (me, though I am not named joe) killing a thargoid interceptor (cyclops level).
Then go on and repost it here, so that we can see your Thargoid fighting skill

I'm no AXI member quality guy, but I win, so it counts.
LOL - these are terrific! Really good camerwork on the sentinel fight and re: the Asp key steal ... cheeky blighter! (deserved everything he got)
Thanks, that eases my bad conscience
Cool, looks like fun! Didn't know that geysers catapult you that high.
Definitley... I haven't bothered with Thargoids at all so far, just got one of the new Guardian SLFs. But they seem to be not very strong (didn't test it myself yet, just read some stuff).
Another race video from me. This time it's the "Triangle Triathlon".

Really good fun this one. It's a Ship/SLF/SRV race and you can even do it as a multi-crew team if you fancy.
If my sig image is still the banner for this race, then it's not too late to take part. Just click the banner for more details.

I'm proud to announce that I've fulfilled my share of saving humanity and don't cowardly run away anymore, when I see a petal shaped object in space (ok, at least I've supported science by collecting some tissue samples before)...
Said that, I'm glad to announce to retire from the Xeno hunt (for now) - that fight was a real hassle and a bit too much for me [big grin] At least I've unlocked three guardian SLFs and the Gauss Canonn, so perhaps I'll come back someday.
See for yourself if you really want that (I doubt it):

Here's a video of one of my trial runs at the "Truckers Up Teide" in-game mountain climb event which is happening all day on Sunday 11th November.

Going down the mountain on Teide A is somewhat easier than going up, especially with night vision!

Hope to see some of you in-game on Sunday!

More SRV shenanigans.
First a recent attempt at the Pomeche Ridge Challenge.
[video=youtube_share;zVhm8G10A1c]https://youtu.be/zVhm8G10A1c[/video]
And second, two base jumps, a mountain climb and an SRV explosion on the recently discovered "Mount Wesley" (believed to be the largest mountain yet discovered in Elite Dangerous).
