Thank you so much, I'm glad I've been helpful! I am working on the next few videos, just been a bit swamped after adopting two kittens who've taken up a bunch of my editing time haha.
Very educational. Exactly what I like, no BS, no weak ass music, just rock solid information in a very clear format. Please teach other youtubers how to educate.👍
I like to thank you. You are the only one I found that actually explains things without unnecessary mom jokes, dad jokes, sex jokes, and useless chatter. Thank you ❤
Have to say I have watched a view of these guides from different channels much bigger than yours, none of them have been as logical or useful. Thank you.
Greetings CMDRs! Back with another beginner's guide, this time for the Elite HUD. This is a very basic introduction to the HUD and where everything is, as I didn't want to overload you with too much information. If you have any specific questions or if there's anything else you'd like me to focus more on for a future video, let me know and I'll do my best! o7
Hey you said to leave a comment if I apply to your squadron so...here's a comment. My commander name is Bowmar. I've just sent the application for the squad. Thank you very much :)
I just want to say how much I appreciate this. There are a lot of tips and guides on YT but most of them assume basic understanding of everything whereas you've broken it all down. Thank yooou!
Started playing yesterday again after walking away for a few years. These videos have been just what I needed, great information and a clear speaking voice. very nice
Ahh that makes me so happy! A few people have told me they learned things they weren't aware of even though they've been playing for a while, which really gives me hope that these videos will be useful!
I'm pausing watching your video only to say thank you very much for it. It's helping tremendously in my understanding and enjoyment of the game. Subscribed and Thanks again!
You are making the best Elite Dangerous beginners guides out there, by a country parsec. All very focused, relevant, and practical. Your voice is easy to listen to as well. Thanks a lot for this great content!
Thanks for the effort you've put into making these videos well-presented and to the point. Picked the game up yesterday and I've learned more in the last half hour than I did in a full day of RUclips browsing yesterday. Too many people think several hours of unscripted rambling constitute a "beginners guide".
Thank you so much, welcome to Elite! I made these guides this way because I can't stand long rambly videos, so I figured there might be others out there like me!
Whoa... What a clear, concise and in-depth guide. I appreciate all your hard work in putting these tutorials together. They’re hands down the best I’ve found. Liked... Subscribed...
I'm so glad it was helpful! I'm working on the next guide but I've been a bit slowed down by two new baby kittens. Hopefully it'll be out in a week or so!
As a dull human being, I love to mine and would love a mining video that shows what to buy to start my shooting at rocks career and then how to properly shoot at rocks.
I'll keep that in mind! The next video is an overview of the different careers/activities in the game, then I'll do a video to break each one down. I think starting with mining would be worth it!
Firstly, this is a great video, thanks for making it bc I’m new and it’s helped me a ton. Also, the production quality of your videos is amazing!? They pop up in my searches and I was under the impression you were one of the big youtubers in the ED community, but you have less than 1k subs??? Keep up the great work, you’re gonna grow so quickly!
Thank you so much, that means the world to me! My main focus has been streaming on Twitch but I've been meaning to do these guide videos with a new player focus for literally years and finally got off my bum to start them a little while ago. I just want to help people enjoy a game I love so much!
Just got this game off Epic last night and tried for the first time, I struggled with the drone training part at the start and trying to figure out how to use the center map to fly and line up with the drone, it was a steep learning curve but your guide here really will help the next time I play.
It's a bit overwhelming at first but hopefully these guides will help! If you have any questions or anything feel free to ask. We also have a Discord community with a dedicated Elite channel if you need help or just want to find folks to play with! discord.gg/Psyche
Hey, your guides are proving to be wonderful for getting me back int the game. I tried 3 years ago but was overwhelmed by the keyboard control originally. Thanks for the wonderful videos. With friends starting to get into the game I'm attempting another go for myself. I see you have a beginner squadron, if possible I would love to join and benefit from the friendly environment. Please and Thank you. (I know that a good beginner "guild" can totally change a players initial experiences from my previous 10 year stint as a guild leader in WoW and other games.)

Quick timestamps for the different parts of the HUD: 00:18 main screen 06:03 left-hand interface (external panel) 07:42 right-hand interface (internal panel) 12:34 top-left interface (comms panel) 12:54 bottom interface (roles panel)
Hi, I'm on xbox, do you know how to NOT go into texting on the chat immediately when I look at my comms? It's so stressing and can't find anything anywhere that turn it off, idk why but every time I'm on free view and look up to comms it pops to write a message IT'S SO ANNOYING! you're videos are great and definitely I'm going to watch this whole series
super helpfull, a thing i saw that you could have added was while at the station that the station has those arrows that show you where the port is that took me 2 docking attempts to find out and even longer to find my correct pad once inside the first time i ran without docking assist. maybe your next or a later one could be like a quick fire all the things you can do, or like a finished the game goals checklist, aka engineering/galactic powers/visit sol. stuff to do with our time besides the best 'go make money careers'. and to bounce off that idea maybe like a video about 'careers' but not the aka best locations for making money but maybe a video about routes or locations that have gorgeous views (top 5 prettiest locations to mine in or 10 passenger routes that take you to crazy places)
That's a good point, considering I always tell people about the arrows to show you where the entrance is when I'm streaming! Thanks for the suggestions for other videos, I definitely want to do some more "things to do in Elite" that aren't necessarily "careers" but are more like, fun things to do that are off the beaten track!
@@PsychePlays yea a lot of videos seem to say stuff like "play the game for what brought you to it' or somethin, but myself and im guessing a bunch others are playing it cuz it was free and now we are looking for the what can we do :P
@@mctankly You could also use your imagination instead of having someone spoon feed you from their imagination/experience. You even mentioned a few. Have you visited Sol yet ? The Black Hole in the center of the Galaxy ? The other side of the Galaxy ? I think it is called Beagle Point or something like that. Have you gotten your free Conda ? Or your mug ? One of my favorite youtubers is The Mighty Jingles. He has made every mistake in Elite Dangerous and came out of each still charging forward. He is also a professional tourist in ED and loves to take screen shots every time he sees something of beauty. I highly recommend his ED videos. He is a gamer that makes videos on just about everything he plays so he may have something else that may interest you.
Hey, I’d love to join the Boop Brigade. This is Cmdr Psych-Man. A friend and I just bought the game and ur videos are helping us a lot so thanks a bunch.
It's beyond baffling to me that you cannot change the HUD color in the game's menus. Like, how is this not a feature? Brand new player, and I really don't like the default orange very much... Do you recommend the Dr. Kaii EDProfiler? Or...?
I think they'll add it eventually! I did a short video explaining how to change it, I personally just modify the xml file manually but EDProfiler is a great alternative! The video is here: ruclips.net/video/6iWsc58jP1A/видео.html
What is the bar below the main Radar?...it is linked by default to what looks like a volume slider on an X52 and you can turn it up and down whatever it is. Id never noticed it before I upgraded my HOTAS and twiddled some buttons
Flight Assist is in space flight, not supercruise. It basically makes your ship handle more like a traditional aircraft, but in space, ie you fly in the direction you apply thrust. It is on by default, when you turn it off you can fly and turn, continue moving the direction you were originally traveling but be looking a different direction. Turning it off can be very confusing at the beginning but allows for more advanced movements in combat, and some people turn it off altogether.
@@PsychePlays I've played some more hours and I tried it. Its what I was hoping this game to be! I'll have flight assist on until I'm more comfortable with the controls though, I dont want to crash into everything. (Specially landing on space stations - it takes me a good minute even with flight assist)
Ahh I'm so glad to hear that! And honestly, I've been playing since closed beta and I still have Flight Assist on. I have it set to "hold" instead of "toggle", so I hold the button down to turn it off when I need to make a tight high speed turn. 🙂
thx for the guides started to play the game few days ago rly helped me here :) oh ill join the team want to see how it is in a team the name is XRAIS :)
great video only suggestion i have is to know what keys you were pressing for each panel more the left and right one as they hold at lot of information :)
Thank you! Yeah I thought about that, but I wanted to keep the video short and sweet, and found that adding a reference to the keybinding for each menu plus keeping it accessible for newer pilots on PS4 and Xbox as well as PC became a bit cumbersome. So as a compromise I'm going to try recording a video where I go through the keybindings with a fine-toothed comb, since I know even experienced players find it a bit of a pain!
what do you mean "what keys"?! that makes no sense... you want her to list the standard controls for pc and every console the game runs on? why dont you just go to options and look at your keybindings? this video is about the hud...
Thank you so much! If you search for the Boop Brigade in the squadron menu, submit an application (and leave us a little comment in the app saying you came from the guide videos or similar) and one of us will accept!
Yup we're still accepting! The squadron is on PC and should be found under "boop". If you're on console unfortunately we don't have a console squadron, and they're not cross platform. I hope they will be in the future but I'm not sure if they'll be able to do that!

I hate to say it, and also love to say it at the same time, but I learned a few things from this that I genuinely wasn't aware of
Ahh that makes me so happy! A few people have told me they learned things they weren't aware of even though they've been playing for a while, which really gives me hope that these videos will be useful!
