This is a board for the PC game Elite: Dangerous
====

Discuss, debate, make friends, make enemies, but just keep it related to Elite.

I don't have any rules so far so try and behave and act civil to one another. If some people begin to get rowdy I'll add rules and start banning, but I am hoping I won't have to do much of that.

Neutron Colonization Project

There's an earthlike planet orbiting a neutron star in the Clookau sector.

I bet if enough commanders turned in data for it, Frontier would colonize the thing. It could become the farthest, most bizarre outpost of humanity.

Conflict Zones

There's a civil war in Kunti right now with an Imperial dictator faction on one side, independent anarchist faction on the other. The anarchists are called the "Dragons of Kunti"!

This board might get more traffic if it hosted lists of current conflict zones around the galaxy. There's a tracker application I found, but I couldn't update it with the Kunti conflict when I tried. So where are some good fights? Galnet seems to like reporting on conflicts that the playerbase gets involved in.

I hope all you merchants out there are helping Senator Torval beat Aisling Duval.

Don't disappoint an anon loyal to true Imperial ideals; go to the Synteini system, Lagerkvist Gateway in particular, and shove slaves in for the community goal.

You can get slaves in Afli, which is only a few jumps away. Reinhold Orbital is the place you want to be there.

Now go kick the ass of that brain-dead hippy and her drunkard father (and make a few chits out of it at the same time). Otherwise we will never hear the end of it, and the Empire will slowly transmute into a companion state of the muesli-dribbling Alliance.

Lave has cancer.

TEST Mostly harmless

This reddit loving bunch is cancer in it's purest form where gaming communities are concerned.

Lave, being the center of many commanders needs be it trading or player based interactions etc etc has been targeted by this group.

They occupy the systems in the area in the name of "protecting innocent players from baddie pirates out to steal your cargo." In return all they ask for is… Your cargo. I'll check back in a day or so and depending on the ammount of replies to this thread we could schedule an operation to sabotage their operations. I've got a small group of willing players from a local community already willing. We just need large enough numbers to take them on.

Also how would you guys like to start a chan steam group for the game, it's likely we'd have to unite with the cuckchan commanders and possibly source in some commanders from the russian chan but its a necissary alliance.

GalNet News - Your Galaxy in Focus

Extremist Leader Calls for Zero Tax Policy

Call Hagen, the leader of the League of Nabatean Defence Party, today called for a zero tax policy for citizens of the system of Nabatean at an impromptu rally.

“We citizens of the Federation are treated poorly compared to the progressive policies evident within the Empire. The Federation is older and stronger but our heritage is weighed down with the bondage of taxation. Let us learn from the strong leadership of Senator Patreus and his Imperial colleagues and ensure that our own society is not a burden upon our families.”

A spokesperson for the Workers of Nabatean refused to comment on what he described ‘the ravings of a mad man’. Ignoring the speech may be a mistake for the current ruling party as the opposition received a massive swing in support after the speech.


Sanna and Dulos Independence Movement News

In contrasting news reports from the Sanna and Dulos systems, reporters revealed the latest on the independence movements in those systems.

The Federal-supporting factions in the Sanna system are comfortably holding their ground and local commentators believe that their efforts to leave the Federation will soon collapse.

In Dulos the independence movement has gained more traction thanks to the efforts of the Dulos Defence Party and their supporters. It is reported that independent pilots from around the region are providing support for both sides in the struggle.

Slave Revolt in Ongkuma Crushed

Following a surprise move from the Ongkuma Progressive Party withdrawing their support for the slave rebellion, the last of the rebels have been killed or captured. In a statement Senator Torval declared -

“Once again the machinations of Federal agitators have been defeated. They will never learn. They deceived some of our loyal citizens into supporting their actions, but now they have publicly admitted their fault, in this instance we will be magnanimous.”

She also praised the actions of the many independent pilots who once again supported her campaign.

Commentators have expressed their support for the Senator’s merciful action. The Onguma Progressive Party has long been a part of the system’s political landscape and their survival – even in a reduced form it continues the traditions of this system.


Suspicions raised over VP Death

Fresh revelations have added uncertainty to reports Vice President Smeaton’s death due to a suspected heart attack.

Retrieved data from the security systems at his apartment indicate they were not functioning at the time. It’s also been revealed that he completed a clean full medical scan in his private scanner only an hour before his death.

His partner Alder Simons, who was not there at the time, believes Smeaton was murdered. He explained there were other irregularities such as the apartment appearing to have just been cleaned.

The mystery deepened with the revelation that six minutes of the satellite surveillance data for the area appeared to have been distorted by electromagnetic interference. This does happen from time to time, but rarely in calm weather conditions such as those on the night of the Vice President’s death.

So the Board Owner is back, but he'd lost his password. I'm looking forward to this board getting a little more traffic! I think once the group system is implimented and we can form fighter wings and assault groups things will be much, much more interesting. As for now, what's everyone's prefered money making scheme? I of course favour Exploration. It's pretty fun and only a little challenging. I'd like if the profits were higher but I suppose that's what scanning black holes is for.

What about all of you?

All threads discussing the topic have been closed and no new others are allowed to be created there.

But thanks to hotweels, we can discuss it here.

And I am under the impression that the players of this game have been lied to.

P.S.: I'm not a player, but I've been following this out of pure intereset, and I've come to the conclusion that you have to be *very* careful with kickstarter. You might not get what you want/expect at all.

I figure this board is very very slow, based on not a lot of people. I'm new to this chan, coming here from half chan.
Was wondering, what are ways to imrpove my dog fighting skills? I'm struggling with staying on the six, and keeping my ships guns with non-gimbaled weapons in the correct fire zone.

Is it a matter of just eventually getting used to it?

I'm playing with Flight assist Off, because reasons.
