Jaques is not a bartender anymore though, he made enough money back on Peters base (a Coriolis station) to buy up the whole base and set himself free. Then he traded the ownership of Peters base to an Orbis starport which he named Jaques Station. This is the station which he retrofitted with FSD drives and noped out from the Core World. Jaques' story is a self-redemption arc and his former occupation of being a bartender (without legs, shackled to the bar) was a way to communicate his past predicament. Loved this video!
@@TheHighWake o7 he is one of my favourite characters in ED : ) Back in early February, 2015 Galnet gave news about Jaques and that he jumped with his starport from the "moon" Topaz. Later in that week in a newsletter among other things Fdev announced Jaques' plan to travel the galaxy and that - and I quote - "It took a little longer than expected (the old Coriolis Station wasn’t robust enough to take the drives he wanted)". We can find the ELW which GalNet called "moon" Topaz is in the Facece system. If we read the original short story from 1993, (all that Glisters) we can read: "Jaques was not keen on having drugs in his bar, except the liquid variety, but while tobacco and all the other narcotics were still legal on Topaz, they would be sold in all of the bars of Peters Base". This Coriolis base is still orbiting Topaz today. :) So this is how we were able to piece together why Jaques Station is an Orbis.

I was surprised that I knew so much about Elite. There were some that I couldn know because the last two years are my first contact with the franchise, but aside fro that, getting more than half of the questions right feels quite good.
12/13. I’ve probably spent too many hours playing Elite and need to get out more. Surprised I got the answer right to at least one of the federal rank ship questions.
Damn you! I wanted to throw the quiz with some of my answers, but then I HAD to answer write, but then the LOLS! DAMN you!!! Oh and We have COOKIES, you don't...
that song was AI ??? its actually so good. also me getting almost half the questions wrong while having several thousants of hours in gametime is kinda embarising
Yeah. It's truly incredible what you can achieve today with the AI:) No need to worry, after all you were flying, not collecting useless information:))
i got mten of the thirteen correct. did not know about Grom, thats powerplay who cares :P, and then there was Didi vatermann, ive done him 5 or more years ago, cant remember. And how am i supposed to know an empire day, as a fed
I have 5 hours and all of those were spent failing to figure out the game and flying around, losing fuel and resetting not having fun. Worst part is now I can’t get my money back either
Got a few wrong; one because it was funny, so i picked it almost without caring. We all know the only engineer who can fix anything is Geordi! Also, that song was 🔥 I was wondering where it came from until i got to the comments section. Surprised AI could make a song as good/better than 90% of modern music. Then again, after a more mature consideration, no, I'm not.

Awesome!:)
When I started watching, I tried to answer, but then my attention shifted to the answer floating in the background!
How do you know this is the correct answer?:))
Omg this is amazing!!❤❤❤❤
Thank you very much!:)
I like the question relevant pop ups in the background.
Thanks!:) Well, at least I tried to make them relevant:))
🎵 _I'm a fighter, a survivor, born to be free_ 🎶
🤘🤘🤘🤘
Only three correct answers :) And 4000 hours of flight time
600 часов и 4 верных ответа)) Мало я в обитаемом космосе летала)
And that's okay. After all, this is a game about flying:))
I, too, struggled the first time around but found it got easier on subsequent views of the video.

Amazing work! Almost 100% accurate, even better than the original lyrics:)
Only didnt know when empire day was. Feel pretty good about that.
To be honest, I just found out about Empire Day too:)) So you have a very cool result.
First I thougth never because I never heard of, turned out it is a true event :D
It is after all a divise question, as I a, sure there are a lot of Feds around that will refuse to celebrate it.
@@57thorns or people like me, who've taken a whole system from the Imps and turned it towards Alliance control.
Epic vid! And the music is awesome too lol
actually only got 8 right tho 💀All the engineers info I already succesfully pushed out of my mind lol
Thanks!:) Excellent result! That's why engineers exist, to be forgotten like a bad dream:))
Surprised I got 3 after all these years away. Fun vid. Makes me wanna do another trivia short.
Thanks!:) Of course! The more quizzes, the better:)
10 outta 13, not too shabby. Only missed rank related and Empire day questions. Nice work team!
A pretty solid result! Thanks:)
Mmm, a Thargoid brewed beer. Hope it doesn't corrode my stomach xD
I think in 3310 you can order a new one without any problems:))
I was surprised that I knew so much about Elite. There were some that I couldn know because the last two years are my first contact with the franchise, but aside fro that, getting more than half of the questions right feels quite good.
Great! It is impossible to know everything about Elite - it is too big:)
Wonderful - 8/13? Yeah, I can live with that I think.
This is a very serious result, Commander!
12/13. I’ve probably spent too many hours playing Elite and need to get out more. Surprised I got the answer right to at least one of the federal rank ship questions.
Wow. An excellent result! You're probably at least quintuple Elite already, right?:)
@@TheHighWake nope. It’s about the journey, not the destination
@@cmdrblp Totally agree:)
That was tough!
But I hope that it was interesting:)
Damn you! I wanted to throw the quiz with some of my answers, but then I HAD to answer write, but then the LOLS! DAMN you!!! Oh and We have COOKIES, you don't...
Sorry:)))
we have snickers, you dont. any questions ?
@@cmdraljaz77 you work for Snickers, we don't. Any questions?
Fantastic!!
Thank you, Commander:)
Yeah I got like 5 right. Most of these are questions I would just look up on a third party tool if needed lol
This is the way!:)
I did worse than I thought as someone who has close to 1000 hours :D
Honestly, I have no idea if I could get through it without mistakes:))
In Elite I star names could be only single words with even letters number.
Great quiz! Must admit, i didn't get many right tho :(
Thank you! I guess this means you have a real life:))
I’m actually surprised I only knew about the first one I thought i knew more about the lore I guess I’m dumb 🤪
I don't think so:) Who cares about the lore when we have these cool ships?:)
zero errors, easy
David?:) Is that you?:)
Love it ! =D
Thanks!:) I'm glad you enjoyed it:))
you're awesome
Thank you!:)
@@TheHighWake quiz game + animation is super cool, do more of them! I'll share them in my squadron discord!
@@franceschik1 Thanks, will do:))

Poor Alliance, always getting left out 😏
Good fun though 10 years and only 7 right ☺
I should have left something for other quizzes:)) Excellent result!
8 out of 13
Almost perfect:))
As _ALWAYS,_ BRILLIANT!

Thank you so much!:)
Damn!... I`m just 50/50. 8-/ )))
This means you have a real life I guess:))
@@TheHighWake Exactly! )
5 or 6 correct answers, I lost count.
Nice! I'm not sure that I could have achieve the same if I had taken this quiz instead of making it:))
@@TheHighWake to be fair, some of those were just luck
Yeah only one i did wrong.
Wow. You must know everything about this game:))
Incredible AI generated song!!! Had it on REPEAT as I farm those Titan Oreos!!!
Me too:))) A solid hard rock hit, right?:)
i got mten of the thirteen correct. did not know about Grom, thats powerplay who cares :P, and then there was Didi vatermann, ive done him 5 or more years ago, cant remember. And how am i supposed to know an empire day, as a fed
To be able to ruin it for filthy slavers, of course!:)) Terrific result, congratulations!
I have 5 hours and all of those were spent failing to figure out the game and flying around, losing fuel and resetting not having fun. Worst part is now I can’t get my money back either
Sad to hear this. But strange, have you tried the tutorial? It worked well for me the first time I played.
it is a difficult game to learn on one's own. A very steep learning curve. Luckily I had a friend who helped a couple of us learn together.
imperial bias
Maybe just a little bit:)
I'm a noob 🙀😿
And there's no shame in it!:)
@@TheHighWake I fly since 2016, I have 6.000+ hours in my cockpit, and my fail is epic 😿
Got a few wrong; one because it was funny, so i picked it almost without caring. We all know the only engineer who can fix anything is Geordi!
Also, that song was 🔥

Thank you! The song turned out to be really very solid. I didn’t really believe in such a result until I tried it myself:)
With all my respect:
2, 10 Don't care engineering
3, 6 Don't care Fed ships (except Vette)
13. Don't care permits
14. Don't care external game Lore
Well, at least some questions were worthy of attention:))
@@TheHighWake Yeah, some gameplay, lore and community things are interesting enough.
