    Elite Dangerous | Odyssey: Roadmap

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 10:24 AM PDT

    Looks like I have a new Copilot

    If you open Galnet in Hyperspace you will see the target star grow in size slowly until it's big enough for you to jump out rather than having the small dot in the middle of the screen.

    just hiked up a mountain on some sort of dreamy blue world

    Phew! That took too long.

    I made a concept of the Type-3 Contender, a small combat ship made by Lakon.

    Leave your big ship in orbit and land on planets in a fighter...

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 06:10 AM PDT

    ...now that would be cool.

    Wouldn't it?

    Number 2 Done; The Majestic Krait MkII

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 10:18 AM PDT

    Even after today's update the game is still REALLY DARK compared to Horizons. Is there *anything* planned? The bugtracker is at a standstill on this.

    The Elite Dangerous Odyssey Roadmap - Obsidian Ant

    The Fines and Bounties system is totally broken and need an overhaul

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 11:37 AM PDT

    /Rant warning.

    400Cr fine from accidentally strafing a police responder ship while under fire from a pirate. Blue on blue fire, happens to the best of us. Ok, just dock anonymously and pay the fine...

    Docked at station in anonymous mode, tried to pay the fine with authority contact after docking. Nope. Got instantly teleported to a prison ship 60LY away. At least it kept my ship and mission cargo, I can't even imagine what it would be like in Odyssey...

    This is all just plain stupid. For a 400Cr fine? We could pay fines by effing radio back in Frontier:Elite 2...

    Just add some high minimum that moves you to prison, otherwise the whole system is broken. Or it's just a another bug, since all the sources and previous experience tells that you could pay off fines normally even in anonymous access, if you had zero notoriety (which I had). If that single 400Cr fine incured a small bounty (I didn't check), it's pretty broken...

    And don't try telling me it's "realistic" or "I should know that". No. It's just a very stupid mechanic.

    Apart from bugs, this game is beautiful for me.

    Thargoid Attack? Aegis Megaship Vanishes in Hyperspace! | Galnet News Update June 4th, 3307

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 09:00 AM PDT

    Galnet article

    Galnet News Digest YouTube video

    The Alexandria has failed to arrive in the HIP 30944 system as scheduled, and may have been hyperdicted by the Thargoids.

    The Aegis-owned megaship triggered an attack by Thargoid vessels when it travelled from the Delphi system to HIP 16538 on the 20th of May. Aegis believes this was caused by the large quantity of Guardian artifacts in its cargo holds.

    To reduce the risk of further casualties, the Alexandria plotted a route to a low-population prison colony in the HIP 30944 system. All independent ships were undocked before it made the hyperspace jump on the 3rd of June.

    However, the megaship never reached its arrival point and all communication with it has ceased. Search teams in local systems have not detected its presence.

    Admiral Aden Tanner, chief military liaison with Aegis, informed the media:

    "We regret to announce a complete loss of contact with the Alexandria. Although there is no evidence of damage or destruction, its disappearance while traveling through hyperspace raises the possibility that it was intercepted en route by Thargoid forces."

    "Captain Jacob Morales and over four thousand crewmembers will be listed as missing presumed dead. In addition to this great tragedy, Aegis's research program into Guardian technology has been severely impacted by the loss of many precious artifacts."

    I finally got my ASP explorer. What a machine.

    just shy of 400 hours into elite, i finally completed my one true goal. this has got to be the coolest thing i've ever had in a game

    Elite Is Confusing

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 01:20 PM PDT

    Vet players are often puzzled by newbies' lack of knowledge, and I'm starting to reach that point too. Here's a sample of how confused I was when I started Elite

    Ship progression went as follows: Sidewinder, Keelback, DBX, Type-9, Imperial Eagle, Anaconda, Krait mkII

    ​

    God have mercy on the new players like I was, who didn't even know there was a tutorial until they saw the pilots' federation systems on the wiki 4 months later

    Edit: I also didn't know what a fuel scoop was until I saw a video about the fuel rats....3 months into the game

    I played this game for three months without knowing what a fuel scoop was

    Started playing yesterday and found my first Earth like planet today. What a gorgeous game!

    I found Geralt of Rivia at the bar

    Heatmaps obtained via DSS need to be viewable in System Map - Add on custom waypoint's on planet surfaces while you're at it.

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 12:28 PM PDT

    So I've been trying out the new DSS and trying to find some life on other worlds. I like the general idea and how it works, scan/map a planet, get presented with a heatmap of where things may be found.

    The problem I now have is that you have to go to space, open the DSS again, then change the filter to look for something else. Some times this is sorta needed if the heatmaps don't really over lap, it's faster to go to deep space and then back down but some times it's just a few km or right near by and flying out of orbit and then back down is a waste of time. Some times I just want to remember the layout of the heatmap since it vanishes once your drop out of your glide.

    ​

    The ability to view the heatmaps and change the filters (only once obtained by a DSS scan) should be viewable by zooming into that planet in the system map. We can already rotate and see surface installations and what not via this screen, so why not the heatmaps?

    ​

    To make this truly useful, it would be nice to be able to put down a marker from the system map at a point on the surface that you can then target from your ship and fly to. They could be client side only as to not put any more strain on the servers or make them like a Wing/Team beacon. Whatever works.

    ​

    While on the subject, once we've done a DSS scan we'll see locations pop up to be targeted, such as "Irregular Markers", "Artificial Structure", etc... These should also be viewable from the system map when zoomed all the way in to a planet.

    There is a song with Hatsune Miku's engine playing in the bars. Hatsune Miku is now canon to Elite's lore: confirmed!

    Update on my SK Orca Blueprints. Deck size and limits defined. 7 decks. Here is an update on how the work is progressing.

    The next Big Addition to Odyssey should be Ship Interiors and Space Walks

    Posted: 04 Jun 2021 01:13 PM PDT

    The Community clearly wants Ship interiors regardless of it it adds any gameplay just for the ability to walkaround your ship, use the synthesizer or run to your SRV/Fighter. If not gameplay it would add an amazing feeling that would truly give you that "Neil Armstrong moment" when getting a first footfall.

    With that being said i think the major gameplay aspect would come with the ability to EVA and repair yoiur ship, strip and scavenge dead/deactivated ships and many other additions that could come with EVA in space.
