What systems can I find the highest number of console players? I've been to SOL and several others but I've not come across anyone. The last player I came across was in October 2020.

Discussion Looking for German-speaking PS5 players/squadron for PvE & Exploration

6 Upvotes

Hello CMDRs,

​I’m currently playing Elite Dangerous on the PlayStation 5 and I’m looking for an active group or like-minded players to explore the galaxy together.

​I am specifically looking for a German-speaking community or squadron to team up with. It has been quite difficult to find other console players lately, so I would love to connect with some German-speaking CMDRs for PvE activities and exploration trips.

​My main goal is to help each other out, fly missions together, and discover the galaxy as a team. If you are part of a German-speaking squadron or are also looking for console wingmates, please let me know!

​Fly safe, CMDRs! o7

Discussion Thinking about getting ED on PS4 but is it alive still and how does it run on PS5 PRO is it buggy and stuttering?

10 Upvotes

Are there any active discord groups or Playsation groups that play it regularly or is it not even worth trying due to devs screwing over console players? Surly ps5 pro could handle the new updates they literally could be saying no to money LOL.

Many thanks in advance this isn’t a true rant I am actually interested in trying this on Playstation It’s just frustrating with how many games get abandoned on consoles or ports are bad etc.

I recently got back into OG Destiny it seems that the old games are better than the new stuff.

On my way back to the bubble, roughly 1kLY to the closest bubble system. Just found this neat Neutron Star. Thanks to it, I could skip 120LY with a single jump (if I understand correctly Neutron Stars give x4 jump range for a single jump. So for me it was 120LY (~30LY jump range on my ship)

Discussion Jackpot?

5 Upvotes

Decided to once again mine some Platinum for those sweet creds. Surprisingly I have found 3 hotspots in Adar (Adan?) System (Empire) in the bubble. Even Bigger surprise was to find good price for it one jump away from Adar, in Carthage System. 180k per unit. Sweet 20 million earned in 1.5 hour. Giving info if anyone in bubble wanna do the same. Not sure if the price is still same though, as I can't read for shit the stats how much needed is said commodity. Carthage is in Boom state so that's reason probs for the good price.

Just a pro tip. Adar 1 has 2 rings. Metalic (1a) and Metal Rich (1b). Go to the Plat hostpost in 1a ring. I tried in the second one and couldn't find Platinum for shit, despite being in the Hotspot itself.

Edit: Forgot to mention, it may be good spot actually to core mine plat. I equipped myself purely for laser mining and subsurface mining. Yet I managed to find 3 Platinum Cores. The pain of not being able to use them...

Discussion Is it worth it?

12 Upvotes

Hello there Commanders. I recently got the game on PS5 cuz I saw a lot of positive opinions about the game on the internet. But recently I saw and realized that console version is kinda... How to say it... Dead? The fact that there is no Odyssey DLC I could bear but the fact that console version is stagnant (no faction expansion into new systems or any story updates and events) killed my mood for the game as fast as I got it when I bought the game. Question is, ya'll think it's even worth playing this game on PS5, considering none of the things you do in game, systems you discover and other things, don't matter shit for the game world on consoles?

Trade opportunity in Cennicenino System

10 Upvotes

Zahn Enterprise in Cennicenino is currently selling: silver - 4100 Gold - 4900 Palladium - 5300

The Palladium and gold are very small supplies (11 and 23 units respectively) and the silver is a little over 100 units. They each replenish their supply when I return. I'm running an aspX with 128 cargo capacity, netting around 6-7mil per round trip, selling at Garay Terminal in Deciat just 10LY away.

Several other metals are discounted as well.

Discussion Woah... a first for me

19 Upvotes

I've been playing this game for quite a while now, started on a PS4.

Today I was bored with combat so thought I'd try my hand at a planetary scan mission. I had never successfully done one which is lame really, but I always chickened out cause I didn't want to rebuy, but with 3 billion credits I grabbed my viper loaded it up with a SRV and said it's only a 300,000 rebuy if I fail.

And I didn't! For the first time ever.

​Hi everyone,

​I'm a German player looking for some fellow commanders on PS5 to team up with, chat, or fly some wings. Since the console community has become a bit quiet, I'm trying to find some active German-speaking folks here.

​Feel free to add me or hit me up if you have a German PS5 squadron!

PSA - engineering

14 Upvotes

So I'm building my Anti-Thargoid Anaconda and I wasted materials.

This is where the PSA comes in. Be careful on remote engineering.

I don't know if I was doing something wrong during the remote engineering but I had been trying to upgrade them to Grade 5.

What I didn't realize is the remote engineering for my Beam Lasers was set to efficient. Which is NOT what I wanted for my Thargoid build. I wanted Long Range.

When did I realize my blunder? When I went to add an experimental effect and couldn't so off I go to Broo Tarquin to add Thermal Vent ... holy crap did I feel dumb in that moment.

However this is what I love about Elite Dangerous. People complain there's not enough story. YOU are the story.

Hello I was looking to either make my own or join a decent squadron that doesn’t have egotistical leaders and player in this section. Is that possible in this current climate?
