    I once described exploration as being like Matt Damon's character from Interstellar: going to see wondrous things humans have never seen before, then going mad from isolation and accidentally blowing yourself up in a desperate attempt to go home.

    One thing I recommend when you go exploring, find a good radio station to have on while you're out there. Good music and radio hosts help break the monotony that can set in sometimes.

No BS, it changed my exploration Phantom from 65ly to 71ly. And yes, I had the fully engineered level 5 with mass manager 5A fsd.

  • @Rakotacivet
    @Rakotacivet 3 года назад +6

    I almost wish they removed either the mass or temp indicator from star names, so it was harder to find systems where black holes and the like were secondary objects. It really takes all the magic out when you explore and spend an hour FD'ing everything in the region, EXCEPT the black holes/neutrons that you just happened upon that JUST got your heart racing. It really kills the buzz when you open up the map and see CMDR NOFACE or w/e has hit this one too, just like the last 8 BH's you've found, but their name isn't on a single other planet because they are just using tools to query all the BH's from star names.
    You can't even say "Just do it too" to anyone now either, because it's already been done, and the only places left with ANY efficiency is the core dome layer, or the northern arm bands, and if it can take a while to find previously untargeted quadrants. When you do though it's amazing, but it can at times take literal days if you're unlucky.

  • @TheMysteryMushroom
    @TheMysteryMushroom 3 года назад +2

    Guardian stuff in beginner exploration, calling POI's pointless... All these things as a beginner are interesting. This is not a beginners guide to exploration as I watched this video and still don't know what star types might have what planets, what planets are good for scanning, what planets have different biological or geological POI's. Talking about the clouds and those metal crystals are NOT beginner stuff. Traveling to Sag A is NOT beginner stuff, wtf?
    This video is better off named "Video about exploration" rather than a guide. It doesn't explain anything about HOW to explore or HOW to use probes.

    I know enough this game to have an appreciation for his frustration, but for someone wanting to move from Bounty Hunting and Cargo missions into exploration, this taught me nothing.

    • @kachkeis6920
      @kachkeis6920 3 года назад +2

      Yes, you can, but it's better to use an external tool for route plotting. Try the moneymaker's favorite (Road to riches) or a REAL and non-money oriented tool like EDSM, right now I mostly use EDDiscovery. You can link other accounts with it (EDSM, Inara, etc.) and keep track of all your routes, scans, commander stuff, cargo etc. I use EDD for exploration and to check the value of planets, to combine planning and making some credits on the way. I'd never play without EDD again, great tool. Never forget to donate to those talented players who created those tools, they make this complex game playable, as long as FDev won't implement some into ED. O7

    For those who want 3x payout for cartographic data - Limited time left, apparently until December 24th included. (Can anybody confirm the date?) I guess it'll work until the next 'tick' > Server reboot, which takes place every Thursday morning. The Community Goal in the Coalsack Nebula is the reason ; it is over, but you still can get 3x payout for your data if you bring it to Betancourt Station in the system 'Musca Dark Region PJ-P B6-1'. I did not take part in that CG, I made half a billion with my data there two days ago, as the triple payout is active for everybody in the game. I am in the region right now, will keep you posted here when I go back there with my data, to confirm if it still is a thing. O7.
    EDIT 24.12.: Still works.
