My first Frontline Solutions battle was some of the most fun I've ever had in Elite Posted: 08 Apr 2021 11:42 AM PDT TL;DR: Frontline Solutions feels like being dropped into a high-stakes battlefield, and it's a blast. When I walked up to the Frontline Solutions desk at Savitskaya Vision, I noticed there was a civil war raging between a Federation democratic political party and a Federation corporation. Wanting to do my part, I signed up to fight against the corporation's attempted expansion. I rode the elevator down to the Frontline Solutions' hangar and boarded the waiting ship. As the Vulture serving as a dropship approached my destination, I found myself hanging in a harness much like one you'd wear on a rollercoaster. Below me there was no floor, and as we were on the dark side of the moon orbiting an enormous blue gas giant there was scant light to be had. I saw the running lights and strobes of an enormous Anaconda finishing a lazy loop around the abandoned settlement meters below me. The harness unlatched, and I dropped to the ground. When I landed, I was surrounded by AI mercenaries my HUD identified as friendlies. They had a wide variety of weapons, including some plasma weaponry. What ensued was an incredibly tense battle, with reinforcements being dropped in by both sides throughout the conflict. My flashlight (and those of the other combatants) provided the only illumination beyond the facility's emergency lighting and a few scattered fires. I jumped from roof to roof, using my laser rifle to strip shields and switching to my assault rifle to finish enemies off. At one point while I fought out in the open to help my allies wipe out an entrenched group of enemies, a distant foe precisely fired single rounds of plasma at us from a catwalk. I got into several heated close-quarters firefights as my teammates and I tried to take and maintain control of the control points (glowing circles you enter to capture), and by the end of the battle I had used all of my energy cells. My suit's power went out and the sound went dull and distant. I could see my teammates firing their weapons but the thin atmosphere barely transmitted any noise, now that my suit was no longer synthesizing sounds effects. My flashlight went out and most of the world around me was pitch black. I hid inside of a burning building, relying on its atmosphere to keep my suit's oxygen reserves topped off. Eventually we won the firefight, and I called a shuttle. I sprinted from my shelter to the shuttle, making it with about 30% of my oxygen left. I returned to the station triumphant, and turned in $300k work of combat bonds at the same counter that had dispatched me to the front. I hopped in my Viper and set off the nearby RES site to see how the new graphics look, and I realized that Odyssey has opened up the world of Elite in a way I never thought possible. The gameplay is inherently immersive. Writing this post felt like roleplay, but it was literally just an account of what I did over the past hour or so. It isn't perfect and there's room for polish, of course, but phase 2 of Odyssey's alpha is nothing short of extraordinary. submitted by /u/TendingTheirGarden [link] [comments]
