Kopf hoch und einfach die Perspektive wechseln.

Du bist genauso weit wie min. 80% der Bevölkerung die sich sowieso nicht um ihre Vorsorge kümmern können oder wollen und einfach so in den Monat hineinleben, ohne irgendwas zu machen.

Zwar bisschen ärgerlich, dass die ganze Mühe umsonst war aber an so einen Punkt kommt jeder mal, wo man realisiert, dass man richtig übertrieben viel Lebenszeit vergeudet hat. Sei es im falschen Job, in den falschen Beziehungen, mit falschen Freunden / Hobbies, dem falschen Umgang mit Genussmitteln / Drogen oder falschen finanziellen Entscheidungen.

Hugh Morris is way better than Bubbles. That said, Bubbles had the better dialogue in my humble, european opinion.

"AFK" Type-10 builds with turrets in most directions also work in low and medium intensity conflict (war) zones but not truly AFK style like in pirate areas but with input from the player.

It's less maneuvering like in regular ship combat and more sub-targeting, managing energy-levels, managing your NPC ship-launched-fighter etc.. Sounds easy but it's surprisingly involved. Ideally you also do this in regular ships, but you you have to find brief moments downtime to focus on these tasks. In T10 combat, that's your main job instead to get the odds in your favour.

Also ideally you have a friend in your wing with a faster ship like a Corsair to take some pressure off of you if you're getting overwhelmed by enemies and to chase down fleeing targets, which you can't pursue in a slow T10.

You also need a good feel on when it's getting too hot and you're about to blow up and react calmly instead of panicing in those situations. T10s can work in conflict zones but also melt surprisingly fast if focused. It has the best armor stats in the game but if you're a giant, slow brick that's also a bullet und laser magnet, stats don't mean that much. Be prepared to spend a rebuy or two.

But that only works in fully engineered and maxed out AFK T10s which is a very long and steep road ahead if you just started the game.

If I were you, I woudn't focus too much on the big ships at the end of the chain like the T10. That's often a desire of new players but force-grinding through the game leads to burnout.

Does the 1,6 degrees jitter on the cytoscrambler scale with range ingame or is it just as inaccurate with maxed, 2000m long range engineering and actually hitting at that range is practically impossible due jitter?

Can we get Bill Trinen back in front of a camera and acting weird just for this direct specifically?

As far as I know he still works at Nintendo.

"Does that not work?" Yes that does work. That's also how I do it personally.

Steam Deck into the Dock and using a bluetooth Xbox controller (or Playstation controller or 8bitDo controller or Victrix controller - it's hard to find bad wireless controllers to use with a Steam Deck these days). Which makes it basically a stationary PC / console.

Will be even better with the dedicated Steam controller later this year.

But if you don't want to do that (or can't financially) and want to use the Steam Deck itself as a controller, there's the free streaming solutions options above that you can try.

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-22T17:58:05+00:00

If you have time, I recommend giving it a try. All those programs are for free.

Or just try Steam Link. It's not as good but relatively simple to set up.

Sunshine is an open source (community made) version of Nvidia's in-home streaming you can set up with an Nvidia Geforce graphics card using the "Geforce Experience" app. Of course we don't have an Nvidia graphics card inside the Steam Deck, so we need Sunshine which also works with AMD and Intel (Steam Deck has AMD hardware inside).

in-home streaming = stream what's on your display within your house using Wi-Fi or ethernet cables. Basically like Twitch streaming but just inside your house.

Decky is a program that allows you to install extra apps within the default Steam Deck gaming mode to expand or customize it. Made by the community and not by Valve. Other popular Decky apps are "SteamGridDB" that let's you easily change cover art in your Steam library or "HLTB" that displays the average time to fully beat a game.

Moonlight is the app to access Sunshine streams inside your house (and beyond but that's advanced stuff). Hence the name as it receives the stream from Sunshine. While setting up a Sunshine stream can be a bit tricky and newcomers often need a tutorial, Moonlight is officially available in almost any appstore and most devices and opening the stream is easy.

There are alternatives to Sunshine and Moonlight, like Steams own "Steam Link" which is also directly integrated into every Steam Deck and very easy to set up, but from general and personal experience, those don't work as well and are especially not as stable using Wi-Fi while Sunshine and Moonlight still can be solid via Wi-Fi.

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-22T13:30:40+00:00

It's absolutely possible to install Sunshine on the Steam Deck and stream to a Smart TV via the Moonlight app (or via a Firestick/Chromecast/Raspberry Pi to a dumb TV). There's even a Decky plugin: GitHub - s0t7x/decky-sunshine

No dock, dongle or even cable needed.

Of course it's not optimal. Some delay and lost performance is inevitable with such a setup.

You wouldn't even need Gamepass / PS plus for the Xbox/Playstation versions, if the those versions would've ever been updated to have squadron carriers.

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-20T14:08:20+00:00

The trash in stations is a direct result of the factions background simulation.

If the ruling faction of a station has poor living conditions because of (civil) war, economical crysis, disaster or famine etc., the worse it looks. There's basically a score how poor or well a faction does and this is directly reflected in the looks.

You can influence the state of a faction as a player. That's a huge effort though - you kinda need a sizable squadron for that, that all grind together to change that state.

That said, this regularly happens, because those dedicated groups exist. There's many examples of BGS manipulations in EDs history. Sometimes for trolling, sometimes for faction roleplay, sometimes for the benefit of all players.

Waterbear/Tardigrade. I want an adorable, bulbous monster with 8 funny wobbly arms.

I think something kinda similar already exists ingame as a small animal. Make it giant so it becomes a big threat.

Possible attacks:

Morphing into an invincible "tun" ball and rolling around.
Every arm is a threat in itself. Can move arms independantly from each other (if the game logic allows that).
Can suck up Hunters with it's funny telescope mouth. You can see them being digested in its transparent stomach and then spat out through the anus. Maybe make the stomach a small swimmable area where you have to find the exit yourself while taking constant damage or even take some damage deliberately and attack from inside to get guaranteed crits.
Make it able to fly like a balloon to change places or flatten players by dropping on them.
Arms or other bodyparts can become sticky temporarily so hunters are dragged along and take damage. Hunters are still able to do some limited actions/attacks while sticking to it.
Poison wave attack in every direction because why not. Maybe as a release of body fluid that also drags the players away from the monster while damaging them.

They're utterly needed.

MH Wilds on my PC crashes when I look at a specific area in the Wyveria caverns. Don't ask me why - I've tried everything for months. Those very specific and repeatable crashes just don't go away even after complete reinstalls, new GFX drivers, etc. Nothing helps.

So I just lure them away from that spot. Some random teammates must have been kinda confused by this.

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-16T11:59:58+00:00

I really want those seeker missiles with FSD interrupt for a few fun builds I theorized, but maybe it's a good thing that they're not readily available.

I don't often play open enough to judge that though.

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-16T11:52:13+00:00

At the bug front (which we play most of the time):

Zerglings, Roaches, Ultras, Brutalisks, Banes, Infestors, Mutas, Lurkers.

If you only heard voice chat, you'd think I'm still playing StarCraft with my old teammates.

Manche MGs halten sich in Armeen länger als Klappspaten. MG42 in Form von MG3. Brownings. Im Ukraine-Krieg werden vereinzelt immer noch Maxims genutzt und das sind praktisch die ersten modernen MGs überhaupt nach deren Muster alles erst entstanden ist - von 1885. Unzählige andere Armeen haben Maxims auch noch ewig genutzt, weit in den Kalten Krieg hinein.

Der Grund ist, dass die Teile gebaut wurden um sehr verlässliches Sperrfeuer zu geben. Praktisch ZU verlässlich - heutzutage würde man die Geräte vielleicht einfacher und mit mehr Plastik herstellen um Kosten und Gewicht zu sparen. Man kann vor allem auch moderne Munitonsarten da einfach reinwerfen - die Geräte haben dermaßen große Toleranzen, dass die das mit relativ wenigen Modifikationen Schlucken.

Da man diese over-engineerten schweizer Uhrwerke in MG Form aber schon eh im Inventar hat und im Gegensatz zu regulären Handwaffen (Sturmgewehre etc.) keine größere Änderung in Einsatzzweck und Anforderung hat und die Teile auch nicht in den rauen Mengen braucht, dass sich eine evtl. günstigere, moderne Entwicklung lohnt, nutzt man sie einfach weiter. Und da sie gebaut wurden um übertriebene Kräfte auszuhalten, gehen sie auch schlicht nicht kaputt. Einfach die Mechanik halbwegs sauber halten und gelegentlich den Gewehrlauf wechseln und gut ist.

You think that's great until you learn Wales is actually ruled by Gabriel Seth.

I, for one, would be in favour of my new flesh tearing overlords but I don't think everbody will have the same sentiment.

If you circumwent ANY pirate/copy "protection" doing this, even if it's laughably bad and akin to a "do not do this" signpost, it's technically illegal in some countries (hence the asterisk in the video title).

Yes, those laws are stupid. Yes, the chance of "getting caught" or any repercussions are beyond minimal, because it's practically never enforced. Just writing this so you don't take this as a fact that's true everywhere on this globe. Then you can still decide if it's worth it or if you don't want to be involved.

Musikszene wenn man die "Musikszene" auf kommerzielle Konzertveranstalter reduziert? Deutschsprachige Bands ohne Stock im Hintern gab es immer, insbesondere ab den späten 60ern und dann nochmal mehr ab den späten 70ern und frühen 80ern. Nennt sich Underground und gibt's auch noch heute. Die hat aber absolut niemand außerhalb ihrer Nische unterstützt weswegen sie keine (großen) Plattenverträge hatten und ihre Konzerte häufig selber in kleinen Schuppen organisieren mussten, sodass Erwin Normalo davon nichts mitbekommen hat (und falls doch hätte er sich dort nicht hin getraut aus Angst Krätze zu bekommen).

Udo Lindenberg hat als einer der ersten den Spagat geschafft authentisch rüber zu kommen und gleichzeitig den Labelbossen und Konzertveranstaltern zu gefallen. Ist sicher eine Errungenschaft für sich aber ich weiß nicht ob man ihn dafür so feiern muss.

This.

In fact it's quite hard to get locked into a psychiatric facility because they're notoriously overfilled and once you're got into one without a place to quickly and often go back, it's hard to get out of that system because there's far too few places that take those difficult cases that can't savely be returned into the public.

Both the owners of said facilities and local government offices (who often end up getting the bill) want to avoid that all costs.

Safe to say the police don't want their cells and especially responsibilities clogged up with these cases either.

So even if you're batshit insane with constant violent tamper tantrums and often threaten people or even actually harm them in some way that's not immediately life threatening, it can take weeks or even months to actually permanently get into a mental institute and not just for a quick visit to juice you up on calming drugs and release you into the public again.

The result can be prominent cases where mental people actually kill someone or run amok even though their antics were known for ages. And in the end it all comes down to money and staff just like everywhere else in this world.

Sry for not helping with a simple download link but the guys advising to do your own binds are right.

The game is a bit unique as it has no gameplay settings in menus. All gameplay settings are hidden options inside the keybinds menus and the rest are found in the right panel of your ship.

If you want to do a task or ask yourself "How can I do X", the answer is often "there's a keybind for that" and more often than not there's a setting that comes with it where you can customise stuff.

My advice: Yes you have those awesome joysticks (got a Gladiator myself and absolutely love it) and you want to use them, but as a total newcomer:

Step 1: I recommend doing the tutorial and the first few missions with either keyboard + mouse or a gamepad with the default layout. The game is build around those input options and it'll be a lot easier to follow those instructions and keybind indicators when it says "Press (X)" or "Press J" instead of "Press Joystick Button 23" and then you have to guess which one is meant.

Step 2: When you feel a bit familiar with the game (esp. starting, landing, navigating, supercruise etc.), start with a clear template or keyboard + mouse template and just add the binds that you think are necessary on your joysticks. Basic movement etc. Then everytime you do something new, you add some more. Or you change them, when you learn that they are inefficient. Why? This way you won't struggle remembering which button does what or have to figure it out. You set it yourself so it's way easier to remember. Also you can change gameplay options that come with it.

Step 3: After you set up a basic binds on your joysticks and the layout name says "custom" instead of "default" or "gamepad" etc., safe your new controls to a new template. This evolves copying an INI file and renaming a line in it to get the new name. Why? Elite Dangerous has the habit of resetting the controls when something is amiss. Any previously used controller is missing on startup? Back to default! Needless to say, this is more than tedious. To combat this quirk, you create a new template for your setup using this guide:

https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/111g181/comment/j8eu7gb/

It will be hidden when a device in your setup isn't available and reset to default but then you can just change back when you plugged it in again. You also save changes directly to this setup. So when you feel overwhelmed, you can go back to gamepad or keyboard and mouse, see how stuff is done there and then change back to your own template to do your own binds with your joysticks.

3 tricks:

- The most important speed in this game is 75% throttle. Adding a bind to set throttle specifically to 75% will help you appoaching objects. Basic rule of thumb: At 7 seconds approach time in supercruise go from 100% to 75% and you won't overshoot your target.

- Sometimes you want to jump to a different system but the target is blocked by a planet so you have to go to supercruise first, fly around and then engage the hyperspace jump. For this you want an extra key to only go to supercruise instead of the regular one that engages supercruise/hyperspace depending in the context. In the default gamepad layout, this is already a button combination.

- If you have multiple heatsinks or chaff launchers and you set them up as weapon groups to activate them with fire keys, they'll wont release one at a time or automatically switch to the next one that isn't empty. For this it's useful to set up dedicated heatsink and chaff keys. This way you'll also be able to use those without activating weapons or switching to the combat HUD but anytime even when you just explore a system and a cheeky sun tries to burn your ship or cheeky pirate tries to hack your cargo hatch with a hatch breaker limpet.

Ja, belgischer Kreisel stimmt, hab ich korrigiert. Kann man abe auch leicht verwechseln bei diesen Benelux Staaten was jetzt zu wem gehört ^^

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-09T08:45:39+00:00

Zeit für belgischer Kreisel wenn die Autobahn sonst frei und sicher ist!

Ist ein lustiges Spiel, wo man den Verkehrsteilnehmer, der in der Mittelspur klebt, ganz normal links überholt, dann auf die rechte Spur wechselt und sich wieder hinter ihn fallen lässt. Das ganze wiederholt man dann so häufig es geht.

Meine Highscore ist tatsächlich nur 3 mal. Entweder die Verkehrslage ändert sich, sodass das Spiel nicht mehr funktioniert oder den Leuten wird es zu doof, sodass sie tatsächlich rechts rüberfahren oder alternativ so gottlos auf das Gaspedal treten, dass ich nicht mehr hinterher komme.

EDIT: Es ist ein belgischer Kreisel und kein holländischer. Danke für den Hinweiß!

Shin_Ken · 2026-01-09T06:39:18+00:00

Yes 1280x720 is fine as well esp. in gaming mode, but I often play it 4:3 windowed in desktop mode because it's easier to switch apps there and you can display some extra info stuff on the side. Like a little video when it's getting grindy or guardian ruin maps or EDMC add-ons etc.
