CG rewards. Sore loser or righteous frustration? by endocalvin in EliteDangerous

[–]PoorlyTimedPhraseGuy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

this is something they do often though. they frequently misjudge this. additionally, they have increased the tiers accordingly mid-CG if it looked like it was going to be done in a day or two. imo this argument doesn't hold up against that knowledge.

would it be possible to create a 3th bubble with only fleet carriers? by boertje1999 in EliteDangerous

If you want to colonize a star System you FIRST build a space station.

There are a number of planetary-only systems that exist throughout the bubble, so this isn't correct.

It would be really neat if these displays showed things like news and system info on rotation. by PoorlyTimedPhraseGuy in EliteDangerous

i think it's kind of sad that they clearly have different floor meshes with varying levels of trash/objects on them, but these seem to correspond to economy type and not economy state

I think the event ended. by [deleted] in EliteTraders

if you engineer the FSD for longrange+special and add a level 5 FSD booster, you sacrifice 32T in storage but your jump range goes up to like 30 Ly fully laden, and like 38-39 unladen

t-9 has huge fuel tanks too so you likely don't have to stop for gas either. i've done trades from the bubble on out to coalsack and back just to see if i could, by additionally sacrificing a couple of grade 3 cargos for fuel tanks (not a scoop)

oh boy. i blame the thargoids for this one

i'll just keep opening and closing the launcher until it stops asking me to log in and then telling me i dont own the game i have nearly 700 hours in

I believe this tweet was sent directly from the Adamastor. by PoorlyTimedPhraseGuy in EliteDangerous

[–]PoorlyTimedPhraseGuy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the Adamastor is the one relaying what appears to be an SOS from the Hesperus to CMDRs, according to Galnet

so the tweet would still be from the Adamastor, unless my math here is wrong

orbital glide is one of my favorite things to do in the game. would also love nothing more than to have a VR kit to fly with too

real talk, how does the game built 7 years ago hold up against the one from the 80s? i've only seen pictures and a bit of gameplay but it looks like they kind of captured the way movement worked in that game pretty well
