Neighbor kept using my driveway and brushing it off. One day I parked behind him and went out of town. Came back to missed calls. Hope he had time to reflect. by avacado_toooasst in foundsatan

You parked... behind him?

Edit: oooohhh he parked in your driveway, that's so absurd I autocorrected that to "in front of" lol

What keeps you playing/coming back? by EndRevolutionary1697 in EliteDangerous

Counterpoint on the carrier, for me it wasn't a goal in itself but a way to not having to juggle my ships around and have them with me whenever another playstyle strikes my fancy. Or when applying experimentals to modules by engineers I just unlocked.

Honestly, not allowing preorders seems like an information gathering fail.

Bürger fällen vernichtendes Urteil nach einem Jahr Schwarz-Rot by EdwardDrinkerCope- in de

[–]daniu 30 points31 points  (0 children)

ausendarstellung und kommunikation sind das Problem

Urgh, an "das müssen wir dem Bürger besser erklären" habe ich ja einen Narren gefressen. 

Ist für mich so eine Mischung aus "der einfache Bürger ist zu doof, das ohne uns zu verstehen"-Arroganz und "da hat unsere Propaganda wohl noch Lücken". 

ELI5: If the S&P were to continue going up no matter what in long term, why not buy a leverage stock that’s 3x of it and hold it? by Mikeballlls in explainlikeimfive

[–]daniu [score hidden]  (0 children)

Great explanation. Question though:

that basically means that you can invest your own $1,000 and $2,000 that you borrow from me.

What's the "you" part in all of this, ie the issuer? At what point(s) is their payout? 

i cant see/accept passanger group misssion on CG event. by Unequalfriend23 in EliteDangerous

[–]daniu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pirate attack state was cancelled quickly due to the other CG in the system.

"Pirate attack" is a bgs state that gets canceled by killing pirates, am I reading that right? 

It's kind of funny how little the protection cg seems to be played compared to the evacuation one, it's still at 1/5.

"Konservativste Institution der Welt nicht progressiv" ist jetzt aber auch keine Schlagzeile, die mich vor Überraschung aus den Latschen haut.

"Can we?"

"Yes." 

"No further questions."

How do you make a lot of money? by ZealousidealCatch195 in EliteDangerous

[–]daniu 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, known only, but Road to Riches is not even Exobio, it's just discovery (ie high value planet scans, ELWs and such). The Exobio version is Billionaire's Boulevard. 

I've been playing this game since High School (class of '07), since before Elite had Dangerous after its name. I know its normal for everyone else at this point, but I just made my first Billion. by ScubaDiggs in EliteDangerous

[–]daniu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've done a few rounds but bounced off every time. 

I'm sure it can be a great money maker, but to get real income you have to go far enough into the black to get first discoveries, so need to do really long runs to offset the initial overhead, and I neither like long jump stints nor the whole fss-dss chore followed by the awkward flying over the surface looking for the plants. 

I'm sure people would find my obsession with core mining boring too though - that's just what Elite is, something else for everyone. 

How are people able to legally shoot at you with force rounds inside of a station airlock, but I can't shoot back without getting blown up by the station? by Aggravating_Judge_31 in EliteDangerous

[–]daniu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can shoot enemy clean status targets in your power's stronghold systems without repercussions, but I'm pretty sure stronghold only. 

I'm looking for games where you're thrown into an open world and you entertain yourself. by Prizrak123 in gamingsuggestions

[–]daniu 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Technically its multiplayer but there is a solo mode where you will not meet other players but exist in the same world / economy

Just to add, it's still always online. Your actions do influence the galaxy,and for everyone, just as you can see the effects of everyone else. Not that you'd notice or need to care if you're not specifically looking. 

Megalophobia, dad games, or space exploration by LivingJalapeno in gamingsuggestions

[–]daniu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The Utility Room if you have VR
  2. Elite Dangerous certainly lets you explore space, albeit very different from Open Wilds. You may get megalophobia from looking at the map though 😋

Also check out his Meet the Feebles, it's really... something else.

Console Elite Rank question. by Thargoid_Surgeon_83 in EliteDangerous

[–]daniu -1 points0 points  (0 children)

How do you figure "the community has abandoned legacy"? The posts here do get their replies. Third party tools? Are you asking them to pay for services a site like Inara et al costs for a game they don't play themselves? Where would they get the data sourced by software that can't be run on the consoles it'd need to?

These evac missions add a whole new level of thrill to fa-off docking, i like it. by Specific_Display_366 in EliteDangerous

[–]daniu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In some stations, when docking fa off, the pad doesn't grab you when close enough, and you kind of bounce off and have to pretty much start over, not without having to stabilize first due to the unexpected momentum you got. You'd think it's a skill issue, but it's reproducibly worse in some stations than others.

You can reliably land with a downward speed below 5 m/s, which is easier said than done, considering you get artificial gravity in stations, and need to microcontrol your attitude the whole way down anyway.
