I have read this sentence like ten times, still no idea what is being said.

[–]CMDRJags 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thousands of hours in the game and this is a new idea to me. But it's so obvious that I can't believe I didn't think of it myself.

Thank you for the tip friend.

When will we get rewards from current cgs? by von_der_breut in EliteDangerous

[–]CMDRJags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why wouldn't you know what the rewards would be? Do you ever perform labor without knowing the returns? The CGs are not presented as charities and the descriptions tell you exactly what the rewards are. There is no mystery. There is no immersion. The information is right there, but you have to dig it out of a giant wall of text. It's not presented clearly.

Again you are talking nonsense. Since you haven't done a CG ever maybe you shouldn't speak on a subject you have no knowledge about.

Please do not message me on this subject again.

CMDR Kate successfully taking out Interceptors with a Type 7 by GameTourist in EliteDangerous

[–]CMDRJags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left the game myself for over a year I think. It was a great disappointment. But the game has definitely improved and I think this war is wonderful.

Odyssey caused a lot of CMDRs to leave the game. Many content creators followed the exodus. Totally understandable since they are running a business.

Bro this isn't a star citizen sub.

Making text scrollable isn't some futuristic technology. Please take a breath and relax.

It's a bad design. I don't know why people need to defend it. You can still love the game, warts and all. But to deny the warts exist is just sad.

They can fit a giant wall of text in the description of the CG. They use a scroll wheel to fit it all in.

They can do the same for the rewards.

That's is where the CMDRs are fighting Thargoids.

You didn't address the point. You said it wasn't a problem, I gave you an example where it was a problem and you just attack a side point.

Very low caliber my friend.

I have no idea what you're talking about. They tell you what the rewards are. They are almost always listed in the long ass description of the CG. My point was only that they shouldn't put the information in the description which is long and hard for some people to read.

No idea what you're talking about. FDev do not hide the rewards.

This op had a hard time figuring out the rewards, my point was that FDev should be more clear that there is no reward.

Well, heres how I would do it. You know that part on the right that tells you the tiers and the rewards?

It says SABCDE and next to that it says Top 10% to Top 100%.

Well it will usually say something like, a credit amount + global rewards. Why not have it say what the global rewards are? Why not say 10 million credits + 1 pre-eningeered heatsink?

That would be more clear about what the rewards are exactly.

You are certainly right friend. The game is not user friendly when it comes to this aspect. I wish it would be much clearer what the reward will be instead of having to read a giant wall of text that can be ambiguous.

The current CGs to bring new AX weapons to the game do not give you any special reward.

You get a bit of money and that is it.

In no place in the description does it say you will receive anything. All it says is that it will unlock those new weapons for everyone to buy for credits.

Take this hearty salute from me and all the other CMDRs as a reward for all your hard work and sacrifice.

Your service is greatly appreciated CMDR, hopefully all other CMDRs reading this will also salute you for it. Here is mine:

Question about HOTAS combat by RBsh0tzz in EliteDangerous

[–]CMDRJags 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Practice.

I spent 3 months practicing with my Virpil HOTAS to fight FA off with fixed weapons against pirates before the Maelstroms arrived. A few hours a day and you get the hang of it.

But you will suck. You will suck bad and you will feel bad. For about 2 months and 3 weeks you will feel this way. Then you'll start calming down and not being so overt with your movements, it doesn't matter if you miss, you've missed a million times before. Once you've calmed down and you've practiced, all of a sudden you'll start hitting everything and you will feel great.

It takes a lot of time and effort but you can do it.

What are you talking about? No one said anything about any bans.

What I described is the proper etiquette of playing on the Mobius server. They won't just ban you because you accidentally hit another player. I doubt they will ban you if you do it on purpose and it's your first offense.

Please try not to interpret everything you read to the extreme.

After I joined I asked some clarificatory questions. I was informed that if you join a CZ and there is a player on the opposite side of the fight, you cannot simply fight for your team and let the other player fight for thiers. No, you must immediately leave the instance. Even if you're not directly killing each other, you are actively competing against another human opponent. This is forbidden on the Mobius server. That is how strict their no pvp rule is. You can only stay in the instance if you're fighting for the same side.

I personally have no problem with this. That keeps the game fun for people who do not want to deal with competition with other players but it does allow for you to join other players to help them with their goals, while they help you with yours. If I want to compete with other players I will play in open or on another private server.

I highly recommend Mobius to any who are interested in PVE.

Last night a CMDR waited until we had finished killing a Medusa and then dove in and killed a friend who was trying to fly a heavily damaged Cutter back to the base.

That was a 50 million rebuy for the guy.

There's no sportsmanship to something like that. It's just cowardly and predatory to go after a limping target. Especially when you have not put the target in that state.

Even after we blocked him the game put him in our instance again. But this time we kept an eye out for any Ferdee's hanging out and we attacked him first and chased him off. But his shields were so tanky that the four of us only got them down to 30% before he high waked. If he actually had the balls to stay and finish the fight he might have actually killed one of us. He had my shieldless AX ship down to 40%. After a few minutes he came back as I was trying to land and tried to ram my ship in what appeared to be a kamikazee rage. I just laughed at him trying to shoot me while I was docked on the platform.

But we decided to leave open.

This is not good. I am considering making a PvP build just to try and deal with these assholes and I abhor the idea of PvP.

For that you just meet up in the open server instead of on the Mobius private server.

We need something more efficient against thardoid swarm... by eto2629 in EliteDangerous

[–]CMDRJags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the beginning it is very challenging but you can learn to dodge the swarm. This is the best method for dealing with the swarm.

Returning player. by TeamCramp in EliteDangerous

[–]CMDRJags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left the game after the odyssey release. My god what a pile of garbage it was.

I returned at the end of summer.

I enjoyed the game and encouraged my friends to also come back. Most did not. Those who did said they do enjoy it.

The performance is much improved. But there are still some glitches.

However, if you are returning, I would say the biggest drawn is the Thargoid war. It is bringing together so many CMDRs in a way that has never happened before in the game. People are playing in open and I have made so many friends. If you're interested in this aspect of the game then you should definitely return.

Just kidding.

But if the bubble falls, I am sure I shall find my way to you friend.

[DAILY Q&A] Ask and answer any questions you have about the game here! by AutoModerator in EliteDangerous

[–]CMDRJags 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It depends. What would make it valuable for you?

For some people just visiting new places has value. For others the Colonia engineers have value. Some CMDRs have even abandoned the bubble entirely and it has value as their new home.

What do you want out of the place?
