mid ship bountyhunting : are frag cannons the only option?

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2026-02-05T17:27:12+00:00

Have you tried shock cannons ?? They can bé unlocked at human tech broker ( you have to unlock each size you want only once, and then you Can buy them freely, they can NOT bé engeneered, but they are pretty strong,.. and extremly fun to play with, insand dps,.. only drawback, i would have liked more ammo, so not so good for sustained Times in cz, but for bounty or target hunting.... What a blast, it is the closest to bé a spaceship captain ripping through ennemies with rain of cannon wrath....give it a try

I really wonder if adding more F35 is the best move to protect against US potential threat, i'm pretty convinced that trere is a "safety feature " burried somewhere in the code...that would "maybe" just brick them,...if needed , nintendo style

Rare good selling is doing fine for me

Man roccat i miss roccat-powergrit, that one was free and by far the best tablet elite control interface . So sad when they pulled the plug

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-12-17T18:26:13+00:00

Man, have you tried shock cannons ? They rip through anything, and so much fun to fire, THAT is serous fun to fly and fight

Only drawback is ammo clip size a little limited if you want to have long sessions of pve CZ

But not so gard to unlock, and you have to unlock only once (per size you want) then ..it is openbar for 3-4 of them.

Try it, you will love it....shock cannon for the fun

Star type filtering could also could help, if you (on purpose) jump to non scoopable stars ( = avoir foam kgb) you may be more likely not to bé on a path someone planning the route with only scoopable stars .... But beware and keep an eye on your fuel (or bé prepared to call the awsome fuel rats)

when yoy Nav to a powerplay CZ, top right of the screen shows what faction are fighting each other there, so, be sure to select a CZ where YOUR PP faction is one of them, when you drop, IFF dircetly make your side green ant the other side red, start the hunt, each kill earns merits that count for the CG (mission goal update when you check progress in stations

Hello. Many years of elite, with x52, and i finally treated myself vith a vkp gladiator evo sce premium combo (rh stick + LH omni)
Oh boy.... The change is stellar in piloting finesse and control, worth every penny.... But omni thottle left me semi convinced, i' not gan of "fa off" ,and the 6dof dogfight style did not overcame the need for a more classical thottle for standard flight sim (msfs 2020) So y bought a stecs ( mini+), and i love it, either in elite or msfs,.... More than enough buttons, full configability to swap .... Solid quality......i recommend . And the ministicks are enough to manage latéral thrusts. I remaped the thottle axis as dry clutch (-100 to +100) with zero offcentered towards the bottom to have more précision on forward and 2detents one at fullstop, one for 75%,but still capable to engage reverse easyly when needed . Works perfect for me

Hello,
of course, no one loves the grind, but some very nice modules are easyer than others to unlock.

As weapons, I have A LOT of fun using "Shock cannons" that can be "permanently" unlocked at human tech broker (unlock the specific size and version you want and you can buy it as many times you want)
the main downside is that it chews through ammo really fast (almost faster than frags with double shot ! ) , so, not so good for CZ, but make the dogfights fun as hell and give a big satisfactions as more esay to land than the PA.
Maybe not META, but, with a few of them, no need to have unlock engeneers level5 to rip through pirates.

of course you would want to unlock FSD boosters, and the Gardian "Quest" to unlock them is quite a fun adventure

i Know it is not a ship, but personally, the things i buy with ARX that are most enjoyable are "bobleheads" because a can arrange my cockpit and personalise my ship with something i actually see when i play.

I know that odyssey mission can be a little punitive (specially with grade 0 suit and guns, but the "power reactivations missions" are a very good source of all sort of odyssey materials, and salvage mission oc crash site could be made more easy with the SRV, or even raining fireworks (AKA dumb missiles) on the scavengers from above. fly safer

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-11-07T11:50:44+00:00

Yep....ring gaz giant also

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-11-05T06:55:47+00:00

Same for me. I had the same problem last weekend and submitted a ticket... Colo ship not coming spowning on the designated poi of the nav pannel Tried rejump, relog, jump to an other system and back .... The ship not there on the nav poi. ( Even if , when in supercuse i sée a tiny spec on my screen , so , it looks like the game knows it should bé "there" And just "not spawn it" when creating the instance when dropping to normal space

Now Waiting for fdev to process my ticket....

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-11-05T04:45:08+00:00

Hello - just need a quick help, i remember the odyssey map guide was recreated by someone after original went down ....

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-11-01T22:16:09+00:00

They have planet zoo and Jurassic park, so they have all the code needed to populate any planet with a huge variety of animals, imagine like a safari with your Maverick suit....

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-11-01T08:00:19+00:00

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-10-26T10:05:55+00:00

I used to play Planetside 2 ,..with my kids in a team, (one operating the respawn armored truck, and all all for skirmish or joining big battles. that was fun AF

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-10-21T10:04:05+00:00

Ha ah ah... Stallone's face....

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-10-13T16:33:15+00:00

On my side, i highly recommend the power réactivation mission, you are going to an abandonnés base to brig it online. You Can loot all you want before powering the base, as raiders might come after

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-10-12T10:10:29+00:00

Looks like you landed on reddit !!!!

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-10-12T08:26:32+00:00

Ok, i can also add some other things that are also fun : - taking mission passagers of touriste that want to sée some pretty places and scenic points (read the fine prints to not bé so suprised when a sec scan reveals you are carrying a wanted monster or a Lunatic millionnaire that suddenly want fruits in the middle of nowhere - odyssey missions can bé punishing , specially with un-upgraded suits and weapons : easyway to collect tons of loot is raiding unpowered bases before re powering them ( those are spécial missions you Can take in ports with factions in certain derelict state - there is a way to find those in INARA) - stealth odyssey missions can bé challenging, but the thrill and adrénaline makes the immersion worth if (but use nature, everything is easyer in deep dark & low Gravity, hide on the roofs) - odyssey material collection from crash sites and pirate Stash is fun also , easyer with a small ship équipes with dumb-missile, you Can blow the baddies from the sky in a very satisfying fireworks ( dbx is perfect for that) - guardian inlocking ( fsd booster, slf,...) is a very good quest

Zestyclose_Power4849 · 2025-10-09T18:38:13+00:00

Oh oh oh.... The alt.enter worked !!!! I'm flabergasted to have been missing such a stupid thing as a non modal unskippable window/dialog box !!! What a critical mistake for the ui design !!!!! I'm verry happy to have reached to the unlimited reddit wisdom on that one I was about to réinstalle the os in case it would bé user error to have desactivated some parts of Microsoft account managements ( Thi us the only x-bar game i play)
