  • In this video we delve into the quest to find Raxxla and look into a player theory involving the Thargoid attacks that might bring an interesting new angle on both the Thargoids and the search for Raxxla. A player initiative to uncover the mystery of Raxxla started this year and its starting to see some tentative results.

    There is something thats been bothering me about the Sol system. UV Scuti isn't in the game because "its measurements werent known at time of game release". But they threw Persephone, which is just a theory. There is the asteroid in the main belt between Mars and Jupiter. But they have tweaked systems post release to reflect new official findings. Not saying its connected, but its odd.
    Plus Triton is locked. Players grind to see the home system and a notable body is locked is just irritable. Just make it not landable like the gas ball Titan.

  • @bravepart
    @bravepart 4 года назад

    I think the 'Journey everyone needs to take for themselves' hints at passenger lounge missions. They've always brought players directly to places of note or lore significance in the game. Also hidden in plain sight, I definitely believe a thread is hidden therein.

  • @PrimetimeCasual
    @PrimetimeCasual 4 года назад

    I think the "journey" part would coincide nicely with a permit lock. The problem, as you mentioned, is that with the sheer amount of stars there will almost always be a way to find an X that marks the spot you want it to be.
    That FDev fixed that bug *that* quickly is, for me, an indication that this bug might indeed have been a threat to whatever they have planned to keep hidden. Be it Raxxla, Guardians, Thargoids, or whatever else is lurking out there in the black.
    That said, I think Turning The Wheel is indeed an interesting approach and might uncover something, even if it is just deeper understanding of the BGS.

  • @maunz5791
    @maunz5791 4 года назад

    Perhaps this system is not really permanently locked, but just very complicated to unlock. Every cmdr has to do something like opening every single thargiod base map to gain access to the system. This would be thargoid related, fit to the quotes of frontier staff and also fit to frontiers obsession with never ending grind. :)

    But I remember reading "The Dark Wheel" the short story that shipped with the original Elite and I do have the original copy awaiting DB's autograph (if I ever get to meet him that is 😉) and each time I read it get inspiration to play the game or realised I missed something from last read! Now....... what if the original story had a cryptic clue or story within the story?? (Thinking to myself, got to read book again now after seeing this video!)

      I've been thinking this too. If they pulled their writers off of galnet they must be writing something. I doubt they will open up a brand new story when everything they've started so far is unfinished. So it's Thargoids, Guardians or Raxxla or all 3.

    @markbutler5977 4 года назад

    Another thing that stands out as being so close to our noses is the game name. ELITE. Could find that one of the conditions to unlocking something is being triple elite. (Possibly even quad elite. CQB) Couldn't even start to theorize how it might fit in but it is like a scab in my mind I can't stop picking when I think about the search for Raxala.

  • @gpisic

    My hypothesis is that u need to max out your credits or at least be close to it, then something will happen when you fly around in one of the core systems. So basically the same stuff you needed to do in the original Elite game.

    I don't think LFT 509 has anything to do with the DW. Especially when there is a _much_ more obvious candidate that some people have long since caught wind of. One system that has significance meta-history wise with Elite, and a star that holds certain historical significance for humanity.
    And as for the DW at Shinrarata? Felicia herself gave us this clue: " _Whenever someone tries to usurp the Dark Wheel name, sooner or later they get quietly shut down. And that's how I know._ "

    I'd be surprised if FDev put the actual planet in the game. If so, how did they justify moving it from Andromeda? The only RAXXLA that existed, in the MW, was the named Coriolis station, a place you stopped to ask for permission to access the Andromeda gateway. So the planet has never been in the MW. We're looking for the wrong thing. Much harder to find a station. It can be in a belt. I bet you "something" is in that LFT belt, or perhaps one of the rings.
