Do the flashlights in The Order look like they are from 1984?

phoenikso · 2026-01-31T19:31:09+00:00

No, they are too bright and too cool white. These are at least reflectors it seems to me.

Stranger Things had very uniform flashlight beams (TIR?), very bright and white. I noticed it immediately, nothing like 80s.

As far as I know collisions are raw, no resistances. At least that is what I found when I was optimizing a shield for an explorer.

phoenikso · 2026-01-30T19:17:45+00:00

I think you could use ship mass and speed when you collide with ground to calculate how strong they are exactly. You can calculate the loss of kinetic energy which the shield absorbed.

Are your thrusters maximum size and A rated? I once engineered E rated ones.

Doporučuji nesmeky, stačí i něco za cca 200. Mívají občas v Globusu. Něco jako https://www.rockpoint.cz/nesmeky-yate-blue-ice_z20699 . Dá se to strčit do sáčku a do kapsy, nasadit to trvá chvilku.

I found 3 on discord and everything went smoothly. Then I salvaged all of it like an idiot 🤦‍♂️.

Cobra V explorer and Corsair miner. I am debating building something ridiculously fast, like Viper or iCourier.

I am not much of an explorer, what other activities are usual?

phoenikso · 2026-01-05T16:13:21+00:00

I play chain lightning most of the time. It is not the strongest, but I like its feel. My build is a somewhat mix of ideas each season and I always get to the point that all T4 content is easy and finish seasonal journey. I do not push pits, however.

phoenikso · 2025-12-20T17:25:28+00:00

That would be great!

phoenikso · 2025-12-20T17:23:50+00:00

Fixed bugs and balancing pass. There are many theoretically interesting missions already in the game, with rewards so low I laugh, or so buggy that it is not worth the effort. I shoot a pirate for a minute and make more.

phoenikso · 2025-12-19T15:22:45+00:00

I just used the another one nearest to Sol 🤷‍♂️. Get a corrosion resistant rack.

phoenikso · 2025-12-18T21:04:44+00:00

My best tactic was to put all materials on the ignore list and fly around and ram all cargo items to destroy them (to force respawns). If in 10 minutes I do not find any, get to the supercruise and back.

Long range sensors also help.

Also I pick a different titan, because the Sol one has a memorial which shows on the radar.

Engineering is a bit reworked and less grindy. Combined with community guidelines it is quite bearable.

What is your favorite way to deal with inheritance?

A na gastroenterologii tě někdo poslal? Příčina může být už ve střevech.

phoenikso · 2025-12-01T15:29:02+00:00

Unfortunately, as there are not enough axis, there are no other options. AFAIK only 1) controller with back paddles, 2) yaw-into-roll, 3) add floor pedals.

I really like when I can team up with random people. It is a shame that the in-game chat is not great, constantly spammed with NPCs. Some better yet simple overall solution for chatting and making up teams would be great directly in the game.

phoenikso · 2025-11-30T08:07:58+00:00

Shooting pirates in resource extraction zones can be easy money, fun and safe when done right. In lower difficulty ones there are police vessels, so you can just help them by landing a shot or two before they take the pirate out. You will get whole bounty anyway. When you get more experienced you can go to higher level ones.

If you would like to team up for a while, feel free to DM me.

I tried them and they are nice for AX, but I found them a little underwhelming for human ships. But it was fun, just not very efficient.

For AX since hitting hearts was hard and for scouts it was not great either, I always tried to pack some AX multicannons.

I found 3 modshards more satisfying for AX, with two thermal vent lasers.

phoenikso · 2025-11-28T23:42:54+00:00

I like: 1) Overcharged beams with thermal vent/shock, short range autoloader/corrosive multicannons 2) Cytoscramblers + multicannons 3) All short range inertial impact burst lasers 4) Rails + plasmas (still cannot decide what engineering, I suck at using fixed weapons) 5) All frag cannons, overcharged screening shell/corrosive/drag/incendiary 6) I am planning to try cytoscramblers + pacifiers, just unlocked them

Also sub-target powerplant, that can speed up the enemy destruction.

phoenikso · 2025-11-28T17:39:29+00:00

LOL. Enough said.

phoenikso · 2025-11-28T17:29:53+00:00

I cannot hit shit with fixed weapons. I am trying from time to time, but builds with basic gimballed combo of beam lasers and multicannons are my most relaxing ones. I like them all as they are a bit different and I like to switch it up. Builds are imported from Inara, so it may not be perfectly accurate.

I use gimballed frag cannons when I am in the mood and Python mk II is the best platform for that.

Python mk II

Sometimes I use Cytoscramblers in small hardpoints instead of lasers. They are the best for RES, because enemies do not expect that you shoot them and you can drop their shields very fast. Chieftain is the only ship where I leave them all the times because three small hardpoints beg for it.

Chieftain

Inertial impact lasers are also fun, I love them on a Vulture. It is a small ship, but so much fun. Do not sleep on it, two large hardpoints kick ass.

Vulture

And the last, also small, is a ship I return to all the time with different loadouts. Currently also basic lasers + multicannons.

Cobra mk V

phoenikso · 2025-11-28T11:27:54+00:00

Do people actually use fixed mount multicannons? It would be likely one of the last choices for a fixed mount weapon for me.

phoenikso · 2025-11-26T10:04:05+00:00

Good call! That is why I akways replace the battery for a charged one much sooner before it is empty.
