    New player discouraged by engineering- is it really necessary?

    Posted: 13 Nov 2021 11:35 AM PST

    I bought this game a while back to play with my gf and we've had lots of fun so far, but I'm not really sure what I should do now. I have a nicely fit Vulture for merc work and an Asp Explorer for mining/explo, but the only way to improve them now is to engineer them. I've read a lot about engineering and I thought I was doing myself a favor by picking up all the materials I get from killing NPCs, but it really seems like that won't make a dent in the huge amount of resources I need.

    I personally don't like to cheese game mechanics, and I haven't really felt the urge to buy Odyssey, so the idea of relogging and picking stuff up on a planet surface seems awful, or relogging and looting the same signature over and over.

    Am I really blowing this out of proportion? Is engineering only bad if you want to max out everything? Should I just play like engineering doesn't exist? For some reason, the idea that I'm not getting the full power out of my ships makes me lose interest in playing. I am really busy with work/school and only play a few hours a week, and I don't want to spend those grinding...

    Thanks for any input yall can give, I like the concept of the game but I feel like my overthinking is ruining it for myself.

    EDIT: I got a lot of great advice and lots of great convo in the replies. Hopefully someone else in my shoes also reads this because I did get a lot of inspiration from the different perspectives. I probably won't try to T5 any of my components (except maybe the FSD), but with all the mats in my inventory and a mat trader I got both of my Vulture's miniguns to T3 so that's pretty sick. I might try one of the high emission signals and try to push them to T4 before I go to the FSD engineer. Definitely can't wait to play again!

    Considering how far in the future Elite Dangerous takes place: Is playing classic music during auto-dock the equivalent of your Tesla playing audio of cavemen beating drums as it parks itself?

    Posted: 13 Nov 2021 06:14 AM PST

    Would it be more realistic to play Party Rock Anthem during auto-dock sequence? Old Town Road? Despacito? Wonderwall? Bohemian Rhapsody?

    Should I be hearing fucking All Star while my Anaconda descends gracefully on a landing pad in a futuristic hanger?

    I'm losing my mind please help.

    What do you guys do with your cutters?

    Posted: 13 Nov 2021 12:43 PM PST

    Bit of a stupid question but after getting one and fully a rating it….. I'm not sure what to use it for. It doesn't do anything good enough to make me choose it over something else, should I just use it around the bubble for style? (This idea does have a nice ring to it)

    The New Pilots Initiative (NEWP)

    The New Pilots Initiative (NEWP)

    So, who are NEWP and why should you care?

    Simply put, we're a flight school. We offer training on all things Elite. Either one-to-one or in a series of weekly training events, or by our range of guides and advice which are hosted on our website.

    https://newp.io/

    We cater to a range of levels of experience, from seasoned veterans to green recruits, all focused in a large, lively Discord server that hosts NEWP members, external specialists we're privileged to work with, ambassadors from other squadrons and just plain ordinary pilots looking for a forum to discuss matters Elite and not.

    We also offer a recruiting centre where envoys from other squadrons can make their case to sway new recruits to join their ranks.

    Our discord server is open to all, feel free to come along and say hello.

    https://discord.gg/NEWP

    Red Emblem Glitch. I've had this glitch since Odyssey launched. I'll sometimes have a bright red emblem despite having no emblem equipped.
