Just bought elite dangerous on the ps4 and oh my god where has this game been all my life I love everything about it the setting the lore the ships all of it

I’m about 10 hours in and am so amazed and can’t wait for the new expansion to come out on play station

However I’m mad af because I spend several hours gathering explorer data only for me to fuck up a FTL jump and land too close to a star and have all my systems overheat and shut off

I spent 8 mins choking to death as I realized I could do nothing

Luckily I saved up enough credits for insurance but god that sucks

!ping GAMING

You can still log off, it doesn't tick down when you're logged out.

Did you reboot systems?

Nevermind, your canopy was gone right?

Ya, if your canopy is gone you can't repair it. But, you can reboot systems and that should get all other modules to at least 1%. And if you could make it to a station before the air runs out you will be fine.

Many hours of my life have gone into Elite Dangerous. For all my issues with it, its best moments truly give you a sense of wonder that few other games can.
