UFFICIALE PC Elite: Dangerous

Pubblicità
eh, senza 3°persona certi particolari è un casino notarli. Quanto mi piacerebbe averla anche se la userei giusto in esplorazione (e non è poco).

 
Ho scoperto Elite Dangerous da pochissimo e ha tutto quello che ho sempre desiderato :ivan:

Solo un paio di consigli per un neofita come me:

1 - per cominciare mi consigliate una guida o un tutorial per prenderci la mano?

2 - secondo voi è meglio utilizzare un joystick per volare? Se sì me ne consigliate uno buono/ottimo?

Braben Q&A Summary

Will edit as stuff turns up:

Beta will come in two stages: 1.5 launches on Nov 9th, and Horizons 2.0 on Nov 24th

Want to do NPC Wingmates & Crew. Planned, but no timescale.

Schematic map coming soon

Rings will cast shadows on planet's surface, but no timescale.

Orrery map still planned, but no timescale. Will be at back end of Season 2 if it makes it in.

Player groups functionality in game. 'Yes, but...' recognising player groups as sub-factions is the start, but it won't be exactly like other game's mechanics.

Loot/Crafting: Simple bits will be in 2.0

Tier 2 persistent NPCs: Won't be in the sense that you can kill off all NPCs in galaxy, but small additions will come sequentially. No timeframe.

Played it on Vive today. 'It's awesome'. Buggies didn't make him feel sick. Getting excessively tumbled did make another player who was more prone to motion sickness feel that way.

Shark-tooth skin for the Python? Would love it, and they're looking into it, but no promises.

Asp scout? Not military version, another variant. More like the Asp out of Frontier. Slightly more budget.

When will we see significant updates to the base game? DB counters that piracy forms & bounty hunting, and new professions (mining) are significant improvements. 'It's getting better by degrees'. Says bounty hunting in particular will change more and more through Season 2.

Turret with Hotas? You can configure as you like. Hat button etc.

Plans to expand astronomical phenomenon? Accretion discs etc? Would love to do it. On the list. Comets are in the simulation, but getting them to look good and interact well with gameplay still need to be got right. You will be able to see medium-sized 'potato' asteroids even if you don't have Horizons.

Is Elite and MMORPG? By almost all measures, but suggests quality / connection limits means it can still improve over time.

Did he ever imagine in '84 Elite could look like this? Imagine yes //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/smile.png. Talks about under-promise, over-deliver in terms of creating impressive modern content.

Vid of buggy driving into settlement with Corvette nearby //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/smile.png

How settlements work with single-player? Use deep ravines to approach 'under the guns' etc. The big guns don't decline etc. Only have to deal with the lighter skimmers. Could take out a generator, and both the lights and the big guns go down. Then call your ship in (if you've got all the generators). There are lots of bases, and they're varied.

NICE! SRV being lowered out of a Cobra, internal view as you exit. Animation looks good. Drives to large base. Hexagonal heat radiators.

Plans to reduce current transition phases? Yes, and they're constantly being worked on. (Some regions, and some connections, have excessive transitions now, and they're working on them)

Character creator will be used for NPCS? Yes, and planned. But not straight away.

Keelback? Lakon ship. You'll see in a week. Based on Type 6, but better, with more weaponry.

How are the DDF 'near God-like powers' re background sim coming? Straight apology on slow progress. At some point there will be something to address that, but not for now.

Buggy too jerky in streams? Some were filmed with TrackIR, which can be less pleasurable for viewer than player, maybe the cause of concern.

High end FerDeLance? Not sure where this rumour came from. Not ready to talk about that yet.

Thargoids? Well.... He was impressed by Cmdr who decoded the signals. There's more exciting stuff to come.

Will capital ships be improved to be more fun to play with/against? Yes, there's more to come.

Asteroid stations? You can sort of see the first vestiges them in CQC. They will come. Don't have a timeframe. Hopefully back-end of Season 2.

More CGs to expand the human bubble? Yes, he thinks they're wonderful. Absolutely yes.

Are you going to play SC? Yes, looking forward to playing it.

Can you conquer planetary bases? Can attack, but can't have your own one. Not yet anyway.

NPCs in Horizons? NPCs driving skimmers already. NPCs driving buggies [?] unlikely in Season 2. Planetary ships, yes.

Game API? Looking at, in pipeline.

Transfer creds after certain rank? Suggest the cargo transfer, so not seen as a priority. Has air of exploit if done on large scale. (Says big cheaters are being banned).

Expand 32 player cap? Could, but experience would suffer. Continually reviewing.

Jettison all cargo? Why?? You don't have to do it //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/winks.gif. Makes your ship lighter. And it's a surprise.

Passengers? Planned, but can't remember exact timescale.

Cutter / Corvette? Both slightly bigger/longer than Anaconda, and have bigger hardpoints. And fit through the slot.

What will you see 20k from Sol? You will see more exotic things, there will be things to find, but doesn't want to spoil

[Missed question] - Looking at how Horizons and non-Horizons Wings perform missions together.

Planetary approach suite fits in every ship. SRV takes up 4t of cargo space. Doesn't take up compartment.

Multi-sourced lighting? On the list. Might only come in High and Ultra settings. No promises.

Will we see Cmdr faces through visors etc / when communicating? Yes face normally clear because ship pressurised.

More difference between stations? It's coming, not sure when. Probably not in 2.0

Vessels over Season 2? First variants will be similar to the SRV, then more down the line. Handle differently and do different things.

Ship naming? (Did we promised that? //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/smile.png). He wants it. Says we will do it. I'll talk to the team tomorrow.

Systems visited bookmarks? Doesn't know.

Models or kits coming? Models yes, not kits that he knows of.

Publishing the lore? Wants to. And bringing story more to fore.

Large cities? Ever bigger settlements coming. Big cities not in 2.0, but will come over the Season.

SRV inside stations? Currently no, and probably not. Will look if worth doing.

Is orbital cruise and instanced area? At the moment pretty seamless. Isn't sure on details on where the transition is. There is instancing on the surface.

They have rough ship layouts, but no walking etc in Season 2

Are there none Thargoid species? YES //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/laugh.png

[Mumbled] If you're in a wing should be able to share exploration data. Will look into it.

More CQC maps in 1.5, then more after.

Supercruise bug? He will ask after this stream.

That's it //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/smile.png. Feel free to chip in if I fluffed any of it, I'll edit in a bit.

Dev Update:

https://community.elitedangerous.com/node/331

David’s sneak peek last week showed some of the settlement action so I’ll describe some aspects of this in more detail. Ports and settlements are the upper end of the scale of locations you can discover on planet’s surfaces. They can vary in size themselves from huge, established conglomerations of structures to quite small outposts. Surface starports are generally the largest and they act in a similar way to the starports in orbit. They can have the same facilities and have economies dependent on the type of world and with specific variations depending on the starport itself. New economy types have been added that only apply to surface starports.
As with the orbital starports, missions can be taken from surface starports and they can take you to surface bases. Similarly missions can be issued from orbital starports that require visiting the surface – assuming you have the ability to do so. There are also new mission variants that apply only to surface operations.

Complementing this is a range of resources and commodities that are only available from surface starports or by collection from points of interest as I mentioned last week. We’re also adding a new type of method for locating resources and uses for them which is a prelude for the loot and crafting system coming later in the Horizons season – more on this soon.

The surface starports and settlements are where the population of these airless worlds live and present various opportunities for Commanders. The style and layout of these facilities reflects their purpose. One of my favourite examples of this is the prison colony – this is an imposing and well-guarded structure that you might need to penetrate to facilitate a prison break.

Surface installations are a lot more open than orbital stations. Of course you can collect and deliver goods from surface bases, but it is also possible to hack data links, sections of bases get power from specific generators – taking out those generators takes out the lights in that section, but also the power to the turrets… Skimmers can also be taken out, or taking out the towers that control them can be just as effective way of breaching the defences. Whether it’s a secret research base or a prison colony, there are multiple stages to carrying out your objectives.

As we’ve shown and mentioned already it is advisable to take a flexible approach to these settlements – some of them are protected by capital ship scale weaponry that is lethal against ships, although less so against the SRVs – both because of their slower motion, but also they have a minimum angle of declination – so a Scarab can use the landscape to stay below the guns in most cases. Smaller turrets and skimmers are more of a threat to the SRVs. If you’re operating in a wing then each Commander can work in different roles at the same time, but even on your own you can achieve the same effect more slowly by switching between your ship and SRV accordingly.

Depending on the world’s population there can be none, a few, or many of these surface starports and settlements. As you’d expect they’re more common within the human habited bubble, but they’re not exclusive to that volume. Similar crime and ownership rules apply to settlements and ports as they do to space stations and outposts. Some of these can be lawless, others where the law is enforced – so take care before opening fire! As well as the bounties available at these sites you can encounter settlements in a state of war which can be engaged in a similar fashion to combat zones.

So far we’ve focused on the locations and the more action orientated gameplay, but naturally there’s more to planetary landings than that. I’ve already talked about the points of interest you can discover, but how you find them utilises a new device on the SRV, in addition to the ground scanner you have already seen. This works very differently to the ship scanners and we’ll reveal more about this next week.

Having said all this, we are still at work on the base game too. This week we updated the galaxy sim that fixes an issue with asset ownership not flipping when a conflict is resolved. A cap on influence changes has been added – this scales depending on the population of the system (a higher population allows a bigger swing) and the degree of changes (so a large value of changes allows more change in influence) and limits the maximum amount of change in a system when the background simulation effects are calculated. This will prevent the massive swings that we’ve seen, but a concerted campaign can still bring a faction down quickly if it is not countered. For the player group minor factions that were affected by the massive drops we’ll reset them to their initial ownership state where we can.

tl;dr

  • Surface starports are generally the largest structures and are very similar to orbital starports: have similar facilities, economies dependent on type of world
  • There are variations of surface starports
  • Surface starports have some new economy types that are unique
  • Missions can be taken from starports
  • Some missions will direct you to surface bases (both surface and orbital starports can issue you surface missions)
  • Mission variants that apply only to surface ops
  • Range of resources/commodities available at surface starports or points of interest
  • There is a new method for locating resources, as well as new uses for resources (acting as prelude to loot/crafting update--more on this soon)
  • Layout of settlements are representative of their purpose--for example, a prison colony is imposing/well-guarded
  • Prison break missions //content.invisioncic.com/a283374/emoticons/laugh.png
  • Some settlements have dynamic infrastructure--you can hack data links, disable power to specific base sections by cutting off/destroying their power generators to disable lights and power to turrets
  • Skimmers can be taken out directly, but taking out towers that control them is just as effective
  • Secret research bases are a type of settlement
  • Some settlements are protected by capital ship-scale weapons which are designed to take out ships, but SRVs may be able to avoid
  • Again emphasizes "combined arms" ideas--Wing made up of a mix of players/vessels can be very effective
  • Size and frequency of settlements correlates with the world's population
  • Crime/ownership rules for settlements and surface ports are similar to space--some can be lawless, others have the law enforced
  • Bounties are available from settlements
  • Settlements in states of war will have conflict zones on the surface!
  • Next week they'll talk about the new point-of-interest scanner on the SRV

 
If you’re looking for a goal this week, the breakdown below should help:

Cayutorme, Adkins Port: (Cayutorme Syndicate) Help the Cayutorme Syndicate resist the Imperial attack, and sell your Combat Bonds at Adkins Port in the Cayutorme system.

Cayutorme, Adkins Port: (Giryampi Empire League) Help the Empire destroy the Cayutorme Syndicate, and sell your Combat Bonds at Adkins Port in the Cayutorme system.

Epsilon Indi, London Relay: Deliver explosives to the mysterious Revolution Incorporated at London Relay in the Epsilon Indi system.

Fly safe out there, Commanders - these are dangerous times!

Sandro Q&A

Collectibles (Materials)

A precursor to the crafting system, but not the actual crafting system. They're elements which you can discover and collect, initially on the planets' surfaces. You can store them, a whole bunch of them. You find them with the SRV and its special sensors.

In the long term they will be part of crafting. For 2.0 they will be available for something new: 'Synthesis'. This allows commanders, in situ, to synthesise materials to create effects. IE you're taking a lot of module damage, and your auto-repair unit is out of resources, you can combine materials to make more resources. No need to go back to starport etc.

There's a new module coming called the Munitions Fabricator. This allows you to fabricate ammo, and probably missiles, while in space.

Frameshift drives can be boosted with the correct set of materials for a one-off jump increase.

There are plausible connections between the minerals you collect and the effect you get.

Different quality levels. Additional temporary enhancements with high quality materials. Ammunition resupply could have a damage bonus.

Can't sell produced ammo etc.

Applies to SRV as well. New fuels for example, for extended runs. Could overfeed the shields (this will wear off over time).

There are about 6 'things' [materials?] in total at the moment. They intend to expand over time.

Hull can be be made more resistant to damage by feeding high quality materials into auto repair module.

The process of Synthesis isn't limited to Horizons, but at first will only be available to Horizons users as Materials only on planets.

Canopy repair? Initially no, but being discussed.

Q: Can limpets be repaired by Materials? A: Very excited about plans for more types of limpets, but not saying anything yet.

Q: Are there any materials that can be found on the other sides of the galaxy? A: Possiblyyy. There will be lots of places to find materials, of different quality levels and different rarities.

Q: How do we scan for these materials from Space? New scanners or do we need to surface scan again? A: Materials, you won't be able to spot them from space, you will need the SRV.

General Q&A

Q: Will Horizons bring new exploration tasks such as surface mapping, taking rock samples, finding ancient ruins, relics, fossils and life? A: Hopefully, yes. I'm not going to say that all the stuff is going to be there in 2.0... We have been discussing things specifically like... planetary surface mapping... I'm not sure when exactly it's going to come in... but that's kinda on point of the things that we want yes.

Q: Are there future plans to include an in game discovery log for us explorers to record our findings across the galaxy? A: It is something again that we have been discussing. We're not afraid to make changes to the interface or the game mechanics. I'm not sure exactly what form it's going to take. It's on our list. I personally think it's very important, the concept that you're telling your own story.

Q: What is the largest ship that can be stored as a fighter? A: The largest fighter that can be launched is... the fighters. We're not going to have a Russian dolls syndrome... I'm not going to rule it out totally.

Q: Will there be new weapons in 1.5 and Horizons? A: At the risk of getting in trouble, hopefully yes. Fairly confident won't be 2.0. More weapons, especially in the large hard point scale. Huge, maybe...

Q: Will we be able to mine and mineral survey planets? A: Yes, and going forward, more yes. There's stuff you can do on the planet, and it does involve minerals. I don't want to say any more.

Q: Will NPC wingmen for hire be available before season 3? A: Hopef... I don't know. The timing on that I've no idea. It's definitely something that I'm all over. We've got multi crew coming.. and as part of that it only makes sense that we look at NPCs at the same time. It's certainly something that we'd like to do.

Q: Will passenger missions be added during season 2 or later? A: Yes. The plan is to get passenger missions... passenger gameplay, in Season 2. We're going to do it. We have multiple ships which are passenger ships, it would be weird if we didn't do it. It's just a matter of timing. It's definitely going to happen, there's no doubt about that.

Q: How will we store the loot we find? A: I don't want to go too much into loot at the moment... The concept for things that you collect is that they are slightly different from normal commodities in that you have personal storage that's always available to you, so even if you die you don't lose it [EDIT] - more on this here. That's not to say that commodities won't be useful in crafting. You have a maximum amount that you can carry.

Q: Will you introduce in season 2 more galaxy map tools, such as the possibility of creating routes by using waypoints, saving routes, etc...? A: No idea sorry.

Q: If we have the room for it, will we be able to store more than one fighter in our ship? A: Yes!

Q: When can we expect to get Alliance ranks and ships? A: Dunnoo. We do want it, but don't know.

Q: Will there be new modules to customize our ships for planetary exploration? A: There will be in Season 2, a bunch of stuff to do with modules... I can't say more than that.

Q: Will loot only be natural stuff or will there be unnatural (alien) loot to find as well? A: There will be a mixture of natural stuff and processed materials as well.

Q: Will there ever be an option to select which star in a multi star system to jump to? A: That's really interesting, I don't know is the honest answer. But from a personal point of view it's something that I've always wanted... I don't see any downside, other than, it takes time to do.

Q: Will player crew mates count as wing members? Or will wings be count ships instead of players? (i.e. six player wing, with 3 ships)? A: The current plan is that crew members will be wing members.

Q: Why aren't instances gathering friendly players by default ? In a near future, will we be able to chose which instance to join? A: It does try to do that. It can't always do it. I don't think we'd want to go to a chose-your-own-instance scenario. But I don't know.

Q [From Ed]: What are you most excited for? A: Pretty much all of it... I think it's worth noting this is... a beginning not an end. When it goes live that's the start of a whole new season, there's so much stuff ... and that's not to denigrate, hopefully, some of the cool features that we'll get in for the core game anyway, such as, I would hope, during season 2 we'll get in the ability to have your ships delivered to your location. There's just a load of cool stuff, and we want to get through as much of it as possible.

Ships

Asp Scout: Stripped down, more lightweight, more affordable version of Asp Explorer. Still got a great jump range. Fewer weapons, same hard similar hardpoints to viper (2 small, 2 medium), but it's faster than Explorer.

Cobra MK4: Reward ship for owners of core Elite game & Horizons. Better hardpoint positions, directly above cockpit and on centreline, with bonus little one. Good arc for gimballed weapons when chasing up. Not quite as fast or manoeuvrable.

Viper MK4: Tougher, bigger, stronger. Better power plant, and better FSD. Slower. Same hardpoints.

Keelback: A trader that leans towards combat. Approx the same size as Type 6. but has 2 mediums and 2 small hard points. Still reasonably manoeuvrable. Better internals, more armour. Does lose some cargo capacity, closer to around 70t in the default loadout. Better power plant. Chunky bits on the side move as you come into dock. Jump range still quite reasonable, not much worse.

Corvette: 2 Huge hardpoints set centrally behind bridge. Very similar in size to Anaconda, a little bit more streamlined. 2 small, 2 medium, 1 large, 2 huge hard points. Little bit more manoeuvrable than the 'Conda. Slightly less space / internals. Doesn't know ranking requirement.

Cutter: Might be a bit taller than the 'Conda. It's faster than the 'Conda and the Corvette. It's pretty fast for its size. 4 mediums, 2 large, a single huge. Slight upgrade to the 'Conda in firepower. Not very manoeuvrable. Boom and zoom. More multi-role than the Corvette, less than the 'Conda.

Launch day for 1.5 Beta still not confirmed.

Fantastico il cutter.

 
Here’s another unedited sneak peek dev video. There are some streaming issues and the starport lighting is not final, plus some other things. The team is hard at work getting 1.5 out (likely tomorrow), so this is just me this time. I thought people hadn’t had a good look at the Imperial Cutter, so here is some more of it, and a little something else too – the first look at a fortified starport.

Probabilmente me la son persa tra la marea d'info, ma hanno annunciato una data di release? Perchè io avrò il gioco+espansione solo quando rilasceranno quest'ultima :tragic:

Hello Commanders!

In the next beta update, we'll be making some adjustments. I'll briefly explain each one, and the reason behind it.

1. We are doubling the length of time a shield cell provides shield regeneration benefit. This effectively makes shield cells stronger, mitigating *slightly* the need for cell stacking.

2. We're retaining the heat penalty for cell use, but improving heat sink effectiveness. So you can still stack cells, as long as you are able to spend the heat sinks.

3. We're adding a small amount of damage reduction to hull reinforcement packages. These are additive and increase the effectiveness of the packages (including module protection, as the damage reduction gets applied before modules are hit).

The end result of this is to make both shield cells and hull reinforcement packages viable, but not without cost. Fundamentally, using a shield cell should fry your systems a little, but can be managed with heat sinks to avoid massive hull damage (module damage from heat, is in general. quite light, even though the feedback is a little startling).

In addition:

4. We've increased the amount of SYS power a collapsed shield can "suck" to reform quite a bit, especially at higher classes. The effect of this is that large shields should reform significantly quicker, around a third of the time it would take before, in the best cases.

5. Zorgon Peterson has offered all of its FDL customers a free upgrade kit: slight improvements pitch and roll rates, a larger power plant housing (size 6) and more efficient cooling systems.
