Outstanding maneuvering CMDR! I always head out there on Christmas and take a few runs of people to safety..I should start saving the escape pods in Thargoid fights now!
Was this in Solo Play? If not for fear of amateurs or accidents making a mess of it, I think it would bring a tear to my eye to see multiple ships doing this.
@@porinamoiyari218 considering this is Elite Dangerous people that do that would probably recieve a stern fuck you from other players in form of being shot on sight for farming rescue ships.
I've done missions before where I just collect the salvage like escape pods and black boxes from the damaged station. Listening to the radio transmissions was quite harrowing, hearing people screaming, reports of fires burning out of control, calls for help, you really feel like everything's gone to shit.
Great vid! I was really in the moment as if it were a movie :-) As a videophile I'm surprising myself with the questioned I wanted to ask; what ship is that? Because the sounds it makes are very pleasant to me
this rescuing refugees mechanic got me thinking: what if you have the option to charge the refugees some fees to board your ship but in turn you'll receive a lot less rep/influence reward or even lose rep/influence
Did you guys know that if you jettison an occupied escape pod near a thargoid it will pull it in and abduct the person inside? It's pretty neat, I wonder what happens to those people.
I'd say they probably just keep them in prison somewhere, maybe so incase they start losing they can use the prisoners as bargaining chips with the humans
@@padmanabhanvaidyanathan7182 that wouldn't help me, because I would do everything to play it in Virtual Reality and Epic doesn't do shit about Virtual Reality, which is because they are pure shit.

I’ve got 120 hours or so in and still use landing assist most of the time. For the same reason that I use cruise control in my car when I drive even though I love driving. I can land myself when I want/need to, but landing assist is a nice to have for 95% of the time for me. Rather than detracting from the game, it actually adds to it for me.
I like to think the passengers are in their own sealed, modular pod, which would explain how they quickly board/disembark your ship, they're handled like a cargo container by the station, but go to the passenger lounge instead
These happen periodically when there is thargoid incursions. After a while all the people can be evacuated then the station will be in a state of repair until players deliver enough materials, then it becomes fully functional again.
They're periodic events where Thargoids attack a station. Players get people out, and gets repaired over time. You'd have to watch for these events or happen across it.
this seems really cool, but also maybe like actually quite boring? The station looks scary, but then nothing actually happens? As in there are no consequential gameplay decisions being made.
Welcome to all of elite lol. Great game, just, not always great. Sometimes totally boring. He's rescuing them for influence and money and nothing more tbh.
Well, you can go in without heat sinks and destroy your ship. Or in terms of actual consequential gameplay decisions, those happen over slower arcs in the game based on the play of all the players accumulating over time.
The system they are rescuing from is an invaded system. Right now the thargoid war is on an 8 front battle around the bubble. To counter the invasions there are many things to do that work on an overall “progress” bar. Other activities besides doing what you see here, include hunting Thargoids in the system, or bringing back research samples from Thargoids. If enough activities are done the invasion can be stopped, but will still have to go through a few week long recovery phase. We were winning the war a few months ago, but things have slowly been going the other direction. If enough player focus is not put into invaded systems, they will become thargoid controlled, in which humans will completely pull out of the system. Stations, planetary outpost, and anyone wanting to jump a carrier into the system will no longer function. @reallyidrathernot.134
LOL what is the point of pronouncing an acronym letter by letter? "Aye" "Ess" " Aye" "Pee". is nearly as much effort as just saying "as soon as possible". AYE-SAP!
Destroyed stations feels even scarier than the thargoids...
Imagine what it would be like in the lower levels were power was down to life support only and no lights just the faint hum of air vents and alarms
@@Chad_Engineer_Main Imagine what it will be like to visit a derelict space station for salvage once the new expansion comes out!

I noticed how he travelled via frame shift at an odd angle to end up in front of the docking port, very smart.
Yep, very common fact that most experienced pilots know of
@@thederpaherp5940 In all of my fucking years.... I haven't seen this shit done since Gamma, holy shit.
@@xtremetuberVII im fairly new to the game and ik about this angled frameshift entry to a station is carrier
I picked up that habit flying passenger missions. You make more money in the long run if you can shave all the extra seconds off each landing.
Wait you guys never do that?
"oh my God thank you so much for saving us, now where is my 5 course meal?
I like those smooth landings and maneuvers you make, great job.
"What do you mean you're not serving a meal on this flight!? I would like to talk to your supervisor.." (Great post I love these kind of videos.)
"Of course sir. If you'll just wait for him in the antechamber." The hit the airlock purge button. :D
It seems like there are Karen's, even in space
That's some fancy landing technique - I am just about to try again - lost my Cutter on my first attempt - didn't have Heat Sinks - doh!

Then I hope to see you out there, someday, CMDR.
@@eechee2979 BTW, the Dolphin is a great ship for begginer rescuer. It runs extremely cool, and has great jump range to actually get there.
I'm more worried about there being someone that just kills other players because people just love to be assholes I guess.

I know what ship I'm getting next. Those thruster sounds are so good
The Krait thrusters are better
According to lore it is sound generated by onboard computer
@@gn4128 I thought it was also because the glass was made to get vibrations in space and make all the sounds or something like that.
@@gn4128 would be cool to be able to customize it

he flies the ship better than autopilot
That’s not so hard. Autopilot is safe, but not very fast.
01:56 „A boom may be on its way!“, she says. Yeah considering the state of the station there is going to be a boom alright. xD
Excellent flight performance with that beluga.
See you've been scared by that explosion on second run. Me to, being perfectly honest! Nice landing tho
o7 Good job on getting that done so efficiently. Incredible control and understanding of the ship and it's surroundings.

Can we just talk about how smoothe his landings are?
Is this station just under perpetual evac? Will they ever get everyone off?
Actually yes, after some time there will be nobody left to pick. And the station will be locked down until its repaired
Damn good pilot! Very smooth my man.

You are a good person
this rescuing refugees mechanic got me thinking:
what if you have the option to charge the refugees some fees to board your ship but in turn you'll receive a lot less rep/influence reward or even lose rep/influence
agreed, you're evac ship, charging packs for it gonna grant you NEGATIVE rep.
Came home from work to get more credits and to find events over with.
damn those landings!

brutally killed or experimented on is my guess

Why the f*ck would you do that?
To buy time for other refugees to escape?
I want to get into this game the learning curve is massive tho
Not really. Give it a day and you will get the hang of the game. Took me 2 days to become relativly good, still suck at combat tho.
@@mr-x7689 same lol I gotta improve on combat and flying without Flight Assist
After i got serious i got my first anaconda in about 10 hrs of playtime, as long as you know what you're doing, you should be fine
Man that explosion at 6:50
Sorry rest of the station, only one person per suite on this ship. I know its only a 5 minute jump, but I just dont have enough space
SFX of this game is incredible
This kind of stuff makes me want to sell my DBX, REBUY my Type 7, outfit it for passengers, and then find a station that's in need of help.
I love this, Let's see if I get my hands on that game someday. It looks amazing

That landing skill tho
Because that's what heroes do

Damn...you are very good pilot.
Le noob me using landing assistance....
Nothing makes your more or less of a CMDR unless you kill fuel rats that’s just bad. I have 30 hours on the game and I still use it
You arent a bad pilot unless you kill fuel rats . I've got sixty in game hours I think and I still use landing assist

will you ever run out of missions (and so people to safe) and the evacuation was succesfull?
Doesn't seem to pay well, can you slave them out? :)
You're a d**k man
You both are funny af.
It seems to give a good amount of standing though
I know that video is 3 years ago, but can i make a question, what a controller are you used during this video? (So smooth landings and flying)
Since he is in VR, some decent HOTAS. I would recommend the x52 as the stick in game is based on that specific HOTAS
How do all these stations end up in peril?
Thargoid (aka the space alien bugs) attacks or terrorist attacks
Good Job!
meet the savior
love it !!
Were you using a VR headset
So you are hero, huh :)
Wait, you dropping passengers right on launchpad? Oh, you're best cmdr, they might be w/o eva suits. 1st - enter hangar, 2nd - starport services.

@@gammafox5431 hmmm, looks bad, but who gonna think about processes with just current game mechanics.
Is this destroyed station still out there, or has it been either repaired or deleted from the game?

They're periodic events where Thargoids attack a station. Players get people out, and gets repaired over time. You'd have to watch for these events or happen across it.

In vr, so joystick and throttle
Is he playing in vr?

Clarity. Someone could easily mess up "aye-sap" as a proper word. Why do you think they never, ever pronounce out acronyms in the military?
They don’t want to cause a Charlie Foxtrot. This is how it’s done in real life where it really matters, too.
