Place for screenshots, videos, interesting links. Horizons are now in Beta, but some stuff I found is really nice.

This one is imo really good!

Horizons and 1.5 launch - Servers offline (Quote from Zac Antonaci) Direct link to DB reddit: David Braben - Ask Me Anything : EliteDangerous

Just small advice/hint: could be good idea for first looks around use CobraMkIII. It seems like more things changed/were adjusted and this also for NPCs behaviour. Have extra speed on your side (and also low insurance payment) can come handy ... especially for smuggling missions. ... Myself will do this for sure this weekend when will have 1st chance play Horizons

OK, get my hands on Horizons and it is really nice ... 1st what I recommend is download new launcher from your Frontier account and let him install/download Horizons 64bit. I purposely put away Steam install as I read it want do upgrade first to 32bit version and so on. Now is game installed on new place and works very very smoothly on full HD and I have only GTX960 and old Phenom CPU ... it works imo much better as 1.4 version and problem with fps drop in super-cruise is simply gone ... have ca…

There were alot changes from 1.4. One from threads which can be good to read (smuggler wise) for info are here: Experienced Smugglers: submit or run?Need advice - smugglingSmuggling without silent running & heat sinksSilent Running ProblemsWhat did I do wrong? (Shadow smuggle fail)In general can be said that simple silent running is no longer "sure" way how to dealt with scans, silent running not make you "invisible", it only reduce your temperature signature. What deal with scans is "break lin…

Mission as I understand them are for: manipulate with minor factions (background simulation) getting rank for federation/empire improve profit for ongoing activities (like killing pirates in some system, or acquire minerals or commodities) Bigger moneys are involved with higher trade rank and in case there are smuggling mission from systems on "buble" border. Also myself need to test more these newly added missions, but there were reports about issues (in some cases mission ended earlier as was…

Interdiction: have you interdictor powered and in active weapons group? I last time interdicted players with 2A i think. For rare/limited time could work best rares trading or/and bounties hunting (compromised beacon) or involve in some combat zone. These last two offers all-time action and you can leave practically anytime. You not need to do missions at all unless want some ship restricted by federal/imperium rank. ... myself suggest give missions time, there for sure will come patches. And t…

Where can you find Compromised Nav Beacons?

If interdictor not want work, maybe ask or report bug on FD forum? Could be there is simple answer to this.

[ED64 1.5.01] Interdictor not working r/EliteDangerous

.. great, just found that we ALREADY have here thread about tips with smuggling in ED 1.5. I did some updates and most useful tips will be always in first post here: Smuggling tips (Horizons)

Can you give your python setup? https://coriolis.io/ I use python regularly and so far died once due my own mistake.

https://coriolis.io/outfit/pyt…leYEzPAzAFmUA==?bn=Python This I use now, with lvl1 upgrade to shield boosters (shield slightly above 500). I use basic fa-off and more reverse trusting. Turrets on large back positions do very good job for me.

I wanted reply to your post differently but I give up here. I enjoy ED and my play have quite wide angle from combat to trade, sometimes PvP and I was able adapt, the same (able to adapt) were some other ppl I know, which were this portal users and which come here less and less**. Also in smaller group (few hundreds players) where I play now are many traders and explorers and there are simply not such negative reviews. I do not say there is not criticism, yes there ofc is, but ppl still enjoy p…

Well, sorry for quite hysterical post from my side, obviously vacations are needed There is imo one significant difference which can determine if player 'find his way' or not. Boldmole joined group called Fuel Rats and helps ppl which get into troubles (lost in space after used all fuel), they also engage in background simulation (BGS) supporting 'group made' faction. We are chatting regularly when I'm in space. I joined group called Ghost squadron (later renamed to Ghost legion) which engage m…

And now to balancing & ships progress: 1) more costly ships can offer (if properly equipped) much better protection as cheap ships. Nice sortable overview: https://coriolis.io/ 2) costly ships have more internals (or higher lvls slots) and utility slots ... in 2.1 it makes quite big difference if you can balance your needs & protection. I have more experience with python, fdl, dropship and anaconda, it works there good for me. I not have experience with P-types but know that ppl still are able …

Only few hints: galaxy map can be filtered, engineers have special icon, community goals have separate icon too. Newly can be added your own bookmarks which works nicely, you can plan travels directly to previously bookmarked point. engineers overview is available all time in right hud in 1st tab (bottom right part), it have also available one pinned blueprint (if you chosed pine it on eng. base). Each engineer access needs is displayed there too (you can find requirements prior go to 'known' e…

Without joystick its hard, it works quite different as CF/FL ... myself hope for hotas later this year, throttle control is quite important if you like fight and want use more fa-off (flight assistant) maneuvers. Btw, as I have read STO and watched discussions, it looks (from outside) quite difficult game. When I started with ED, it also looked difficult (very). But it's some time already I play and I need to say that 2.1 added rly alot details and user 'friendly' things to game engine. Play is…
