One thing changed for me when I started traveling 1000's of light years that isn't often mentioned. When you start and hang around in the bubble the stars are just a backdrop, changing randomly after each jump. It is only when you start to travel that you see changes in star density, nebulas receding while others grow. Clusters of young blue stars and deserts with sparse red dwarfs that the Milky Way becomes a place, like a garden, that you can stroll around in and no longer is it just a background of random dots.
They really aren't changing randomly. All of those stars are truly representative of actual systems and their relation to you in space where you are at the time.
I think that's what I'm missing about elite. I've never been outside the bubble, and I'm starting to get really bored of the repetitiveness. I think what I really need right now is to make an exploring ship and just embark on a long voyage outside the bubble
@@ultima8250 hell yeah bruh, go for an adventure outside the bubble and you wont regret it, its good for the soul Just remember to keep an eye on the fuel tank
Yep. I've been playing Elite for about 4 months now. Exclusively exploration. Slowly heading back now from Sagittarius A* and I've never randomly come across this shit once. It seems like the Codex would benefit from including fully narrated topics that hint at this stuff at least.
I enjoy the idea of someone coming across something rare and everyone flocking to see it just imagine how many people have seen something crazy and just thought it was a normal part of the game and didn’t say anything
Just commented this in someone else's post. I really enjoyed going through the narrated lore and History in the Codex. I wish there was more. It's great to listen to on long trips. I mean the contents already there, like the stuff mentioned in this vid for example, would make great content for the codex and give players something to go find.
Its just like Bungie and the Grimoire cards in Destiny. The most amazing written science fiction in those cards. But you had to go outside the game to get to it. I need to check out the codex more.
All you space legs groupies.....other than being a major resource sink from important things like building better gameplay loops, this will do nothing for this game....
Great video! I have recently got back into ED as I am mainly a NMS player/content creator, but as a space geek I just love space and both games offer me different ways to explore space so it's a win win! ED is a visually beautiful game and am very excited about the Odyssey update coming next year.
Wow, all my favorite RUclipsrs have seriously started stepping up their game with the quality of their videos lately. Not to say they weren't amazing already, but this one just has something special. I can't put my finger on it, but it feels like it's on a new level. Well done!
I enjoy the codex and it's entries on things, but I just wish there was a better way to find stuff. Despite all this awesome stuff out there, it doesn't really feel like it's easy to happen upon something interesting just by natural gameplay. I don't want the galaxy overfilled with "the same 30 things", but it sure would be great to go and explore randomly and happen upon something really valuable and interesting. It can add more to the plot of the game, or actually be rewarding more than just "how hey, that's pretty neat looking".
Oh please do more of these videos. Your videos to me are the only way I have been able to uncover lore and more interesting parts of elite, yes there are in game tools but they are woefully inadequate which really is a shame given just how much there is to elite. like painting a masterpiece and covering it with a tarp in a corner under a sign that says painting below.
I love to visit the nebula. I have just reached the jellyfish nebula. From there i will head for the Monkey head nebula. Then there are a few on the far side of Barnards Loop. Not only do i get to see some stunning views but i now have my name on planets in 700 systems.
The abandoned surface settlements and abandoned ships are the best for their audio logs Have seen most things on the list however the formidine has been on my list for a long time
I'm on a 4 day journey going from pledias nebula to witch head nebula then to orein nebula and lastly Bernard's loop. Im on my way back home the journey was absolutely worth the time. It's a 1000ly+ journey.
Within two days of playing I was already outside of the bubble. Just a heads up for new players though if you're still in the pilots Association and you have not left their starting area then do not leave. Once you leave their field of influence you're not allowed back until you obtain clearance. Grind in the starting point as hard as you can until you can upgrade your ship or get a different ship. That way you can gain the proper permits needed to return back to those shipyards. The Hyades sector is a good spot for your first meta alloy.
i have played this game for a number of years now and seen a lot of the stars out there but as you have shown there are still lots more to see and go to thank you for videos and list of placers to go to
Thanks for the video. I was at a Thargoid site recently but couldn’t get past the door into the interior, but now I know I will need carry a probe. Will try again.
I haven't visited one in like a year, but you'll also need to make sure to visit an "Active" one. They're absolutely stunning to see in person. The scale of those things is bonkers. Back when they were first discovered, I bookmarked one and visited regularly to explore. They were definitely growing, but have stopped for like... the last 2 years. 😕
jesus christ it was 2017 when we found these thargoid structures? jeez... time flies. havent played since end of 2018 iirc but these are the videos i love seeing from you oa
My favorite place to return to (as a somewhat new CMDR) is CMDR Jameson's crash and the INRA Stack base in HIP 12099. I just took a friend of mine who got Elite a week ago there.
Just imagine taking 2x or 3x the time to explore these "wonders" with "space legs" - Not going to bash Elite because I got my money's worth but advise anyone new to the game to take it real slow, this video covers much of the stuff you will see and once you have done that, it feels very copy / paste - the mystery of space will wear off and it will become very, very boring - for whatever reason Frontier both managed to create one of the biggest "game worlds" ever and the most boring all rolled into one - a game that has RNG all over the place but then chose not to feed the RNG engine with new things and manage to replace that feeling of mystery of what will I find in that system over there with well for lack of a better term - GRIND... so don't rush it because once you hit that wall in this game, you still have a tremendous thirst for more but more is simply not there.
For me it feels like ED dev rest too much on their laurels as a game which has the biggest universe based on milky way and expect that this alone will be enough.
Remember back in the original beta when eta cephei was a wonder of the galaxy? Also a place to sell tons of coffee lol. I miss that system as it was SO much!
Coincidentally I just returned from an event with my player group where I jumped my carrier plus passengers to Witch Head Nebula, the Orion Cluster, California Nebula and the Pleiades. We visited a lot of the places shown in this video, including a visit at a Thargoid base and activating the "lightshow" inside. Took us a week in total and we're planning on doing more like that. :) Many of these places are really not highlighted often enough and really deserve a featured video or mass-visit once in a while!
One of my favorite nebulae has to be the Veil Nebula west. It's so pretty, I get lost in my surroundings. I've gotten some really good screenshots that have served as my desktop wallpaper for many months.
Looking forward to the next episode! There are many lovely locations dotted around the galaxy... Some of these have been visited during the Distant World's expeditions. But would could really do with a visual guide to these locations!
- Bubble nebula is quite pretty with it's blue colour, but flying a couple of thousands of light years to see a pretty sight isn't for everyone, and no bases nearby for refuel/repair. - in the "south" the Crab nebula, same, it's an oddly formed nebula, but at least that has a base nearby. - To the "East" there are some Guardian structures that you can visit, just near Eta Carinae (which is a site worth seeing by itself). - If you head towards the galaxy center, you should stop at the Eagle nebula for some screenshots. A few bases nearby, but not much in terms of civilization.
Shrogea MH-V e2-1763 "Black in Green Tourist Installation" is a space hotel located only approx 100km, yes, that kilometres, from a black hole... _inside_ a green planetary nebula. It is amazing and well worth a visit.
Byua Eurk Ci-0 B50-0 , It has a planet only 1.88Ls from the main star, and the planet has a 0.2D orbital period, pretty cool to see, its so close its within fuel scoop radius
I just wish the flight model for elite dangerous was actually enjoyable to use for extended periods of time, so i could visit more places like this The alt+tab, realign ship, wait for fuel scoop, get out of the overheat zone, engage FSD cycle, alt+tab is so boring IMO that i don't even consider leaving the bubble any time soon
It's why I don't go exploring much. I love flight assist off piloting, but it's always on in supercruise (presumably for interdiction fairness reasons).
Couldn't agree more. The whole Elite experience is so devoid of story, life and fun. A sandbox game is only enjoyable if the designers give you fun things to play with. Frontiers idea is to design an assortment of features (that you have no real worthwhile way of interacting with) and then just hit the randomise button to spread them across the galaxy. One side of the galaxy is identical to the other giving you no reason to actually go there (other than different colour or shaped nebula that are nothing more than a different coloured background) I hope to be proven wrong, but going by Frontiers previous track record Odyssey will be yet more underdeveloped features and disappointment.
Remember all of these sites were discovered by players, and some required solving key cipher puzzles. This was before the unlimited range honks, poi markers, engineering or guardian modules. I salute the explorers, fly elite CMDRs o7
I remember you making a similar video from you several years ago.. It basically had the same stuff lol.... This many years in an alleged scale sized galaxy, and nothing new discovered yet?... Meh
Nice video, thanks for sharing. Without this video I would have no idea any of these sites existed within the game. I have been playing ED for a while and never once have I come across anything as interesting as the sites shown here. Of all the space games available today, ED is visually the least pleasing. 99.9% of the gameplay is dominated by the HUD, limited views of the ship interior and the same space station interiors all over the verse. There are other aspects that keep me playing the loop for now but Frontier are definitely remiss by not realising the potential of this game.
Hey Obsidian, I'm not sure if you're doing videos like this anymore but I just discovered a sextuplet system with two Lagrange clouds one with biological entities, a pair of co-orbital Earth like worlds and two of the stars are Neutron stars. All of that encased in a local nebula!
I tend to agree. The gameplay loop revolves around earning credits to get bigger and better ships which after a while becomes pretty meh. There is little to nothing that encourages the pilot to go look at the verse, in fact 90% of the time you are just looking at the HUD which is the same no matter which ship you fly.
Also I was attacked buy a thargoid interceptor at the Lowell station in Farseer's quadrant, I had meta alloy in my inventory. Has that happened to anyone else? The date was June 25th 2020.
2:32 "You can investigate the area" lets be honest, it really is you can drive around the are and look at the pretties. There are often little to no interactions with these sites.
@@simondaniel4028 Yup! I have played for almost 2000 hours since kickstart beta, a lot of that in VR (which is amazing and I am annoyed they are dropping it for Odessy, I understand why they might be, but still it's annoying). Look, I love Elite, I have enjoyed most of the time I had in there and a new player will have lots to do. These sites are just frustrating, there is so little to do with them. They could have been a point for a story for the player to get engaged in, find a mayday message that says about an escape pod left in orbit and here is the transponder code. You take off and scan for it, once you get it in your ship it wakes the occupant, who asks you to take them to their family. You get to the location only to find they have been sold into slavery, you then have to find and retrieve them buy investigating a planet base and scanning the computer, then going and finding the ship that has them, disabling it and retrieving them. You get back to port to find out they were really quite important and you get excellent standing with that faction, money, discount, new weapon or what ever. (Most if not all of that can be done with the existing mechanics in the game). But all you get to do is drive about, scoop up some bits, shooty shooty the glowy glowy bits and suck up whats left. And that assumes you have an SRV, if you don't then there is even less you can do.
Yeah, Nebulae... Too sad that one of the biggest in the galaxy (that is visible to us) is also the one that has the least detail: Carina nebula. Compared to that, Orion, with horseheads is *tiny*. But good video. o7 But I am a bit too far away to enjoy these... @ -1250... vertical.
Jesus christ. Seeing all this whining in the comments makes me embarrassed. Imagine having game with this much shit in it and still complaining about Fdev doing nothing. I dont think people realize just how much work goes into this game

I’m intrigued by the rumoured label in the codex, hows that supposed to work?
The ingame codex is criminally underused. Another one of those features FDev appears to have no idea about how to utilize it.
I really doubt that the Devs really play their own game sometimes
"Implement it as a minimum viable product, and forget it for 5-6 years" is how they do things.

Fun Fact!
Nebula are actually sparse in nature and the vivid colors and thickness wouldn't be there once you reached a certain proximity to the body.
I used to criticize this game a lot because of the lack of space legs but I've really grown to love it for what it is.
Visiting those crash sites with space legs will be great.

Elite Dangerous is a perfect example of a game with endless potential being developed by a studio that has zero imagination.
Not to forget 0 experience, willingness and ability to create gameplay loops
