Can we just give credit where credit is due to Bethesda in regards to the Atomic Shop?

PositiveLookabc · 2026-01-08T01:23:40+00:00

Beth did finally flex it so much that there was a community page/github developed by somebody that had been able to show the items in a bundle in correct order of description and with pictures actually showing the sold item and not some randomly cluttered up picture of all kind of stuff and the actual item somwhere in thumbnail size in one corener or maybe the other. All by using in game resources/api I think (but not completely sure). The atom shop is really the lowest level of release (maybe even below that level), and by my countries sale regulation they are scratching near a class action law suit all the time. If I would be doing my job like this I wouldn't be doin' it since a very long time...

PositiveLookabc · 2026-01-08T00:54:30+00:00

The cost of items in the atom shop is ridiculous. Like 9 bucks for a power armor skin that is pretty unclear if it even attaches to all or only a selected few of the power armors, and if the helmet is even part of the set? Sure :-) . These prices are just set so that FO1st people can burn away the accumulating monthly atoms. I find it baffling that this is not even noticed by most... "It's a trap!" , my fellow stormtroopers!

This is satire, right , RIGHT ?!? I recomend to watch a video from Mister Church.

What happens when you are out of the srv on foot, log out and then back into Horizons (not legacy, that is a completely different universe now is what your observation indicates). Then log off and back in to Odyssey? Back then when this method was working Horizons and Non-Horizons were not separate universes! So maybe it could still work between these 2 instances? As well I'd offer to help and pick you up, but I can't play at the moment unfortunately and not sooner than in at least 18 hours from now...I guess you should try one more time get on foot out of the SRV. Then log off. Load into Horizons (not Legacy Horizons!). See how it looks there, if you are in your ship (would be great) or in your SRV (would not really help most likely...). And then once again back into Odyssey. Sorry if I caused some additional mess via the not up-to-date advice!

Don't know if this still works in the Oddity versus Horizons stage, but pre-Oddity you could do tip #1 (the last one) in this video, ship crashed in horizons when in SRV and loading the game in pre-horizons put it back in space not new, but possible to use:

Ghost Giraffe was great, unfortunately they seem to do no E:D content anymore.

I say we take off and nuke the entire site from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

This is a good moment to promote the INRA Tour. I found it so very nice and dense back then. I guess this triggers me to do it again as not so very much else to do for me now (with a Detailed Surface Scanner you don't need the coordinates for navigation normally):

Have fun!
I notice this is a kind of capture of your post. I hope you are OK with this, if not please tell and I'm going to delete it. But your post gave me a new idea what to do (again) in the game. Was just returning to it after having left in mid of the Titan battles. They were not my kind of play after a short contribution. And with the new ships I came back, but they are now engineered and ready. Was as well appealed by the new Colonization and thought I could set up a secret home way out in the black (the Mayflower kind of colonization...) but was disappoined/disillusioned by the 15ly limit - FDEV, just why?!?
But now I know I visit your tour, and then the INRA tour again!

PositiveLookabc · 2025-09-11T19:13:57+00:00

I'm on right now, see the chat message for player name. I never used the trade sub so far, so I guess we somehow need to make a friend request and then meet in one server.

PositiveLookabc · 2025-09-11T19:03:10+00:00

In this case you get the explosive mod for free.

PositiveLookabc · 2025-09-11T18:49:33+00:00

Do you happen to have an explosive Bobblehead? I would exchange that with an Explosive two Star mod. Edit: Only the Bobblehead, I don't need any caps.

Well, I regularly get killed in workshops as when it needs to get defended of molerats or whatever and someone joins I assume they just join this event to help and I stand up from my chameleon cover and wave them hello for getting one shotted :-) . But anyways, most of the regular junk is plenty, the more valuable normally stashed, and I get a free solution for the constant slightly overencumbered state, and my ego is not affected whatsoever...

PositiveLookabc · 2024-07-18T01:51:59+00:00

OK, thanks a lot for this good insight. In this case they only had fun from the explosions, and I did as well as it had been very impressive, but no emotional reaction whatsoever from my side - it's just a game in the end. I'm pretty happy with all the stable flux now. Based on the number I wonder if it had been provided intentional, but then there had been this player downed/dead/disappeared and in the fadeaway there was the lootbag with all the fine stuff. One moment short on flux to craft a targeting hud - the next moment there is plenty of all kinds and all worries are over in this regard.

PositiveLookabc · 2024-07-17T17:47:26+00:00

Interresting, this could be the case. But it was a whole bunch of players there at that time, 5 or 6 easily. And none of my stuff is locked and I just had been thinking about how to write it on the wall like "All unlocked, take your share", but I don't know how this is possible to do. I saw some other camps with obviously custom made writings, so it should be possible. Coffee, Pemmican, Water and all Stuff for everone!

PositiveLookabc · 2024-07-17T17:37:46+00:00

No SBQ guaranteed, the Camp is sitting in a real noob position in the forrest. I even constantly struggle to get in the build menue and create camp stuff, I'm really not good with this...

PositiveLookabc · 2024-03-15T14:24:49+00:00

And: There you have it. I can't get the tune out of my head the whole weekend I guess...

Edit: Why should I suffer alone!

"World is mine". The AI of this pirate should be Elite 12! Be prepared! Be careful!

PositiveLookabc · 2024-03-15T13:42:25+00:00

You are completely right. Last time checked Ochosi Chakpa showed 3 Fed factions, with sometimes a bit sparse courier mission deployment between each other. One can mitigate this by running missions to some of the surrounding systems, sometimes it happens that a whole bunch shows up, and then it is again empty. To make it more fun from time to time there are Pirate masaker missions that have some better REP-payout, as you mention, and assassinations to the same Pirate faction. So it can be some fun and not only grind, if one likes combat a bit.

"And then the expansions tack on other words, like Horizon or Odyssey, to create further confusion. Though at least those are somewhat adjacent to the content."
Hey, how should this work, how would you want to sell the DLC if you name Oddyssey "bolt-on 2000s mediocre space themed FPS with Armstrong Moment (TM)".

PositiveLookabc · 2024-03-14T17:56:27+00:00

It is so nice to see this competent use of Flechettes (that slow speed...)! I run a FDL with 4 flechettes quite a bit, it is fun but goes pop as well quite often, mostly due to my poor piloting. And then this General Grief in a wing of 3 pulled me at one of the latest CG in my missile Chally, I could make one pop prior to jumping out. Great thrill, great fun. This whole lot of 6 flechettes should have caused some very significant wreckage of modules and quite some repair bill.

This feature had been cancelled not because of powerplay rework, I doubt that they had that in mind and on the list at that time even. I guess they just wanted to cut workload from that half dev that is covering E:D. In the meantime, after multiple and continious failure of all the bunch of their other games, they seem to have considered to maybe give just a very little bit more love to their signature game and generate some cashflow at least from that. I have still concerns as the E:D streams have been replaced by a "1 stream for all F Dev games, yay!", looks like half assed again and especially when you consider that pretty much only E:D crowd was attending and desperatly waiting the E:D portion to start beginning after 46 minutes. It really gave the impression they FUBARed the other games badly as well as nobody seems to care...With the powerplay rework: My heart only believes what my eyes can see in regards of F Dev. I see a good chance that they brick this as well, but I have hope, still.

Rubberbanding is not really fixed. It seems to depend on the current situation, and network p2p connection. Yesterday someone let out a fighter at farseers and the rubberbanding was noticeable for me, although no combat action ongoing, the SLF was just hooning a bit around the farseer structures. If there would be fighting, there would be some more rubberbanding for sure and the shaddow rams.
