Ahh, yess, using the Python MK II Titan Bomber for the Blockade of HIP 22460 feels like jumping into the Korean War with your Mustang right after WWII.
Thanks for the checklist. Will be there (carrier already parked). I wonder if FDEV need to be formally informed in case they need to reinforce the backend?
Already dropped them an email. Whether they will act on it, can't say. They acknowledged an earlier email of mine on another topic, but not this one just yet.
Checked ! Support fire & Repair Station Anaconda ready for action with 7D repair limpet + 80 T of limpets. We will need repair limpets, lots of them. And repair condas (T8... T10, whatever !)
10:40 can someone explain me this? I remember the extra ammo engineering for caustic sinks being a normal upgrade with 1 level, and even though it had only 1 level, I had to buy the upgrade 4 times or so before it would complete. I have 27 hardened surface fragments, so I'm wondering, is AGZR really a 1 time buy thing, and does it really only take 3 fragments + 1 caustic crystal to get AGZR or do I need to buy it 4 times. So it would then cost 12 HSF and 4 CC to complete 1 module?
@@aun_el3247 Thank you! I will bring both. Strange to have gone through the grind to unlock all the Guardian modules and I can't use any of them because I didn't know to farm a material that can only be gathered from live titans 🤷♂
I wish there were dedicated servers capable of handling this game instead of relying on peer to peer networking. Looking forward to how this turns out!
Router type is fine. That's irrelevant. Mine is port restricted too. If UPNP Enabled is OFF though, something didn't work. Did you follow the part of the guide that explains how to enable network discovery on private networks in Windows?
I fixed it myself, i had to enable self port forwarding for my device in the router. Of course i will deactivate it again and only route the used port.
This might be a stupid question but do I go to the "open play" menu for the event or the "private network" menu where I would pick the anti xeno initiative group and get into that server that looks similar to the open play menu? Sorry I'm new to all this
I just learned about the whole event because youtube decided to drop this video into my recommendations. So while I won't participate, as I don't have the time to prepare, the part about the network settings piqued my interest. As much as I'd loathe to poke holes into my firewall, wouldn't that be in vain anyway if you're CG-NATted? How about IPv6?
@Mechan: so you're a fan of the Steelers or Ravens then to pass the other two wildcard games with this event? ;-) Maybe the AXI-group won't become as busy as expected.
So do I understand correctly that we're trying to gib interceptors, and thus we don't really worry about killing hearts or panicshielding? Just shoot? So we don't really worry about clearing swarms either?
I have a Python Mk II with AZone Shards, a Krait Mk II with Pre-Engineered AX MCs, and a Mandalay for reconnaissance (map the system and a surface scan of 10B). I don't have Discord. Guess I'll be in the AXI group and shoot at what everyone else is shooting at if I can find them. Might have to install a wake scanner. UPDATE: Well if there was a specific instance I didn't get in not having Discord to ask for it or via texting in-game. Still the Devs provided a nice Xeno Conflict Zone so 4 hours of fun with lots of players. My Shards helped a few players get richer. Maybe next time Mechan and I could instance then put 9 shards on a Hydra. Time to bring my ships home. Regards
@@Astyrrean Right, the wake scanner didn't work with low wakes. Just manually drop out at the wake point. Been awhile since I used one to follow a ship that high waked.
So I participated in AX combat first time in battle of Sol, so I am quite new. One thing I want to ask is that is Xeno Scanner not required for this and why? I don't see you having equipped one and the build I am following to choose weapons for my AX Krait does not have one either. Edit: from contextual clues I am getting that we plan to kill them too fast for healing and therefore killing hearts to be factor, is this the case?
Yeah scanner won’t do much for you here. Mostly just give you shield and interceptor variant information which you can get in other ways. Very optional.
As mentioned go buy some AX cannon/missile racks and you are good. As long as you get the hits in you get credits. Plus AX multi cannons can kill scouts quickly
This isn't a matter of hiding or not hiding. Open cannot be geo-sharded. We NEED to use private groups to separate people by region. No single instance can hold the 1,500 people who have registered - individual PCs cannot handle that volume of P2P connections either. So we HAVE to use private groups, further lined up by geographic location to minimize lag.

Real time example is sure fire way to win your point of order! 😄
What are the best hardpoint recommendations for non-guardian/ant-xeno field weapons? Just AX missile racks?
if you're new to ax combat use gimballed ax multicannons, they are very forgiving weapons and you can shoot from a distance.
For the sake of clarity, for those of us without AGF guardian weapons or the materials to make them what is our hardpoint option for this event?
Enhanced Anti-Xeno Missile Racks. I guess you also use the Enhanced Anti-Xeno Multi-Cannons, but the missile racks is what's been recommended.

@@ImBarryScottCSS I have the same problem. Was hoping they'd remove the requirement but they haven't paid any mind to it yet.
@@ImBarryScottCSS Only bring missile racks, multicannons do not have nearly as good of DPS

I cant see a network settings in my ingame options menu- i only have controls/graphics/ audio
Go to main menu. Network options only show up in main menu.
What if port forwarding is on, 5100 is selcted but UPNP enable is still off and greyed out?
Router type is also Port_Restricted
Router type is fine. That's irrelevant. Mine is port restricted too.

Private Group. NOT open play.

IPv6 makes no difference - it's the UPnP that is essential. The way FDev have their netcode is like running an old school BNC network from FDev! ha ha

I'm a Giants fan (sadly.) There's 16 games a year as far as I am concerned...
I am brand new to ED...is this something anyone can participate or only for veterans/those with carriers/status???
Anyone can participate. Read the briefing - and join the Anti Xeno Initiative discord for more info.
okay great! ty I will check it out... lotta homework to do to prepare 🤯🫡

Quick ? what exactly does continental europe mean. :) Im in Denmark so is that a part of that or should I go UK?
You get to choose! Continental Europe or UK + Nordics. Luxury of choice! :)
What about Northern Ireland? I mean Europe for sure cause they hate the UK right?

The odyssey servers are separate. You can’t join anyone who has it unless you have it

you all better hide in private groups cause there may be folks who want to shoot a bug hunter - just sayin
I suspect those people will be quickly banned from their respective groups. The rules are very clear about PVPers and gankers in AXI PGs
@APS_Inc thus why I said they better hide in private groups
This isn't a matter of hiding or not hiding. Open cannot be geo-sharded. We NEED to use private groups to separate people by region. No single instance can hold the 1,500 people who have registered - individual PCs cannot handle that volume of P2P connections either.
