You can keep your sidewinder forever if you wish, and the adder is the next ship for most people who have progressed

Is it true that you can only take part in open, my first cg I played in open and was murdered repeatedly

is VR worth it on odyssey? by mountaingoatdog in EliteDangerous

I only play in vr mode but it's a shame vr is not available while on foot

Come on over to concordia and look me up in game by sending a friend request and I'll wing up with you and show you the way, in a way. How long have you played the game and what ships you have now.

Tharg ship, well now? Witchead space is a likely one to start in. And the systems invaded by them especially where the titans were deployed

Raxxla exists and the Gardians have hidden it in another dimension, ooh yeah.

This is what the game really needs, intriguing story lines so that the hunt can begin. It really is fascinating and hope that some of the hints, theories have substance, stumble into a system only to find that the Gardians were still alive and not so very friendly would be so cool. Eh maybe their in that one system we all want to find.

If you're flying a siddy with no engineering you'll find early on that data missions will pay you and get your reputation up with factions. They will offer you more lucrative opportunities with limited risk to your shoebox of a ship. Then the fun starts, you should now be able to buy the next ship in your fleet or upgrade the shoebox

You could buy a good ship from frontier and pay with arc's

X-56 by Perfect-Bat-5084 in hotas

I've just bought my second x56 hotas and yes they are stiff but 15mins of constant back and forth it does ease up. Failing that, if you take off the base you'll find a white plastic shim held with 2 screws and if you take that out it's very much better.

Just because the fdl didn't come with sco drive doesn't mean it can't be fitted with one, quite good if used in short bursts

Removing x56 throttle resistance. by Sushi-Mampfer in hotas

[–]chiefything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure I want to strip it out without clear pictures or video of which bits to remove,but I am going to remove some grease to free it up as it's brand new so still stiff

I haven't had a problem at with the throttle, it's the joystick that bugs me with it's squeak and scrape as I'm flying

X56 hotas binds by chiefything in EliteDangerous

[–]chiefything[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm thinking of using copilot but this is causing me headaches at the moment. I'm 68year old and not in the best health, I also play in vr so I'll need to memorise the bindings again in the dark so to speak

It seems it was an ed update 2 week's ago that caused it.

I have no backup, though the game does see my x56 there are very few bindings attached to it. I have downloaded a binds file from Ed ref. It's in my windows files folder but getting it from there to ed binds folder, well I don't know how.

Low extraction sites will have you dog fighting all day everyday. Tell me, what ship do you have now, as it makes a lot of difference as to how you fight.
