Okay I just Played Operations One Time, Did two Missions; Now I am an Expert in FPS and Game Development and Have Ideas on how to make it even better!!!

It's pretty Fantastic!

Okay I have to admit, Operations is bad to the bone! It gives use one more cool thing to do in this game. I have played games like ARMA, GTA, Skyrim and of course Odyssey. I truly believe the Devs are on to something regarding Operations expansion. It really adds some much needed life to the Elite world. Now we know there is something going on inside of these ships and stations. It truly feels on brand.

Mission Comms

The Looking Glass Mission Comms giving you situational awareness is really nice. Gives you a feeling you are doing something in a coordinated way. Its not pure chaos.

Interiors

The interiors are amazing, I think it is a preview of things to come.

Future is bright

Operations is a great content delivery device. It really is neat to drive your ships to the operations ingress area do the mission and egress the area. It finally gives combat some purpose in this game.

It will only get better. The story telling options are endless. I do how we get some tie ins with some of the other odyssey missions.

Suggestions and Changes that may help

The only real thing that I would change after my two missions... would be:

  • a reduction in wave combat. I don't mind having to fight my way out of a situation to get back to my ship to egress the operations area. But sending in meat just to give us stuff to shoot at ruins a good thing. Maybe tone that down some.

  • Having To Request Landing Clearance during assault missions. Mission Leader should have some sort of device giving to him that allows landing pad hacks. This hack would open up access to the landing pads so when the ships get their, they have access to the pads and can land without asking the people were are about to assault would it be okay to land. This would be limited to pure enemy assault missions. Policing mission where we are welcomed as a stabilizing force we may have to request landing form the controller. Ship launches post a pure assault mission should use a ready option vs a request for take off from a controller.

  • Mission runner ship / mission carrier should operate landings with preclearance landing during emergency egress, When the mission runner carrier warps in to pick up the strike package. The Assault team should have preclearance landing pads assigned. If we are returning to non hostile space then we have to ask for landing clearance.

  • The Player's character need a few moves. Like Lean and Shoot and Shooting from cover is needed. Ai needs the same abilities Right now we have to expose from cover to get line of sight. Operations does not need to go full FPS but a few more abilities would be nice.

This expansion to Elite is almost perfect, Thanks Devs!!

Playlist / Crates Track Order Locked

Hi All,

I have been trying to set a order of play in MIX and it seems to be lock to main sorting tabs.

https://preview.redd.it/pl1b3yo8dvah1.png?width=1976&format=png&auto=webp&s=c663019b9f1f57489fd11d91f7b6a46fb7f63eb9

This seems to be the only thing that allows you to change the order of a play list.

Is this caused by using the analyze this Playlist feature that gets you BPM, Key and other stuff?

I am not able to drag and drop songs to reorder them in a play list.

They only place where I am able to change the play order is in Auto DJ.

Is this normal behavior for Mixxx?

Thanks!

It was a 100,000 ARX kinda day today

Title says it all... Picked up that ship to ship thing and some new doll dress up suit kit as well. The Exo Skeleton suit looks interesting, I had no idea they had made a new suits as well as ships. The military suits look mean. Also got a nice jacket with the discounted dress up items!

Well done to the Devs for their continued support of this game!

Special Cargo for Clipper / new Passenger ship Owners Civilian and Military

I was replying to another post here on the forums and it dawn on me that the game never has player resupply ship yards with Modules, SRV, or Fighters. As ship like the Clipper would be perfect for that.

Stations and carriers should have resupply orders that the player can participate in. Now of course we all know why this is not reliant on the players to solely facilitate the movement of player consumable items... There are way too many bases and stations for the player base to manage...

But it would be a neat game loop for players to reach a special trusted transport status where they get to select special transport missions very similar to the passenger transport game loop where you are fulfilling request for ships, srvs and module manufacturers to transport kit to different stations under resupply orders.

These player deliveries would be factored into the logic that is used now to determine what is offered at a stations by some small percentage .

Just a thought since stuff like that is missing in the game. I would be a great add on to the Inter Astra module. Or Even a New DLC Elite Ship Yards...

Forgive me if this already exist... I may have just missed it since I am new to the transport life.

As for Military Transport That new Passenger liner should have special missions to move mass amount of troops around like a military transport. You would think Each faction and Power play power would constantly have orders to move people around. I have not started using that ship yet so this might already be a thing as well.

Again just some ideas

Thinking about building a ground base in game. How much in game experience should a player have before embanking on said task?

I saw a very cool screen shot yesterday. The picture had lots of containers on the ground on some planet with a Kitty Clipper on ground as it seem like it was unloading mass quantities of cargo, It got my imagination going.!

It looked a treat, like someone was getting to the business of base building.

So my question is this... Is this base building game loop something that only a veteran player should engage in?

  • Can a ground base be built by one player??
  • Are there pitfalls to doing this.

And before some one writes a full-snark "search the internet.... " I am on the internet. And I am asking a community players what their experience have been. This is my internet search for answers.

I am especially seeking out the folks that have had negative outcomes regarding difficulty and stuff like that.

Need some good Hidden Fog light to Supplement My Spec -Decoration Headlights (Spec -D)

I don't think the G35 looks good with Foglights... they kinda jack up the esthetic of the car's simple minimalist front facia.

Can any one recommend a good projector style dark lens foglight that I could hide behind the facia so I can have some usable light come from the car at night?

Thanks

Shi Got Impounded By My own faction. What Gives?

  1. Not sure what happend here... I had this ship and flew over a ground base... the ship computer said trespass zone... the base started shooting at my ship...
  2. I get back into orbit... I get a message that I have a galactic wide bounty with a fee of 600 credits...
  3. I go back to HQ... park this ship.
  4. Buy a sidewinder... to avoid losing this ship.
  5. Then take a shuttle to the system I was wanted in..
  6. Turn my self in... take a shuttle back from the jail to HQ...
  7. Go here and see that my ship is impounded for 37 million credits... What gives? LOL !

Why is my ship impounded at my faction's base ? How is 600 credits turning into 37+ Million Credits..

My is my Factions stations going full law and order on me... I did not even do anything but fly over a ground base that I did not know I could not land at.

Is this a bug maybe?

Stripped Thermostat hole. Thinking of using a slight oversized bolt.. can anyone suggest the dimensions?

Hey Gang, My Thermostat holes are stripped out... on the 35.

I was thinking I would just use a time-sert but I think they have a lip same with Rivetnuts...

So now I am thinking about a slightly oversize bolt.

Looking on the Nissan Parts page , the stock bolt Dimensions are

1.3 x 0.5 x 0.5

which I am guessing is 1.3 inches long not sure with the 0.5 means may thread pitch and I am not sure that the last 0.5 means... I will either go to pleasants hardware or Fastenal to have them explain the dims to me.

But I guess I want to try to go to a slightly over size bolt to see if it allows me to make a tight seal without doing more damage like cracking something.

Any thoughts or repair Ideas... Crazy how a simple job has now turned into a mess.

Thanks

What do you think the Non-player Character's Body Count is in this game?

I was replying to a post about combat in Elite.

It got me thinking... How many Non-Player Characters have been Killed In Elite Dangerous?

I would love to see the log table in the database that tracks that if it's tracked at all.

My Guess is it has to be over 24 million+ maybe more.. I base this on the repetitive nature of the game loops times the number of players that play or played elite times the number of years this game has been active.

In A game where the lore is that humanity is fighting against Fully Bloomed Space Flowers... My guess is if they just wait a bit longer humanity will kill off itself.

This lead me to another idea.... It would be nice if we could better leverage ship sub-systems attacks vs just blowing a ship up and killing the characters.

Instead have an additional set of mechanics that allowed us to instead disable a bounty or kill warrant ship or any attacking Non-Player Character ship and turn them in to the system authorities for capture and legal processing.

Since I don't combat... or do those types of missions... there may very well be a system like that In place already and I am just ignorant about it.

But I don't see anything like a capture limpets or even holding cells an a optional internal that would allows us to capture a disabled ship and crew.

I know there is no way to transport crew on to ships so No holding cell would be possible. But Capture Limpets could be a thing that locks down a disable ship preventing system repairs.

They would have a beacon that the space authorities would follow and pick up the bad guy. These could only be used on and against Non-Player Character ships. They also need to bring back the Stun gun option for on foot combat. I know that is a legal thing and it was taken out... but we must be racking up some major body count numbers!

I would love to read what your guesses are about the body count!

Using Apex Shuttles to Get in and out HOT areas and avoid Human Player that just hang out tin popular areas to shoot at ships.

So we all know what happens in this game around popular stations or systems. You get confronted by a less then friendly human players.

Biting game Knats! Nice people in real life im sure but in game not so much.

So Especially during community goal prize pick ups. For some reason these player like to shoot at you for no reason.

Next time you run into this issue try using the Apex shuttles.

I had to pick up my prize at the station where the community goal was hosted and got reports that people were being shot at...

so I want to a different system and used that as my staging area... and took a shuttle into that HOT system and to the prize pick up station.

Then called in my ship that I had emptied the cargo items out of... pick up my community goal prize. Took another shuttle back out to my staging area that was human player free.. had the boys over at InterAstra(sp?) ferry my ship back to me.

Done a dusted. I did not have to worry about being pestered by players with nothing else better to do.

Quick update: I think people are saying shuttles can be shot down... which is fine as they are only killing the player and not the player's ship. The Ship is what we are protecting here. Having InterAstra ferry your ship is just a simple database update in the backend database so the ship is always safe getting into and out of the hot zone. Since the ship is not an actual object moving inside of the game. It can't be intercepted or destroyed

Strategery!!
