It is insanely good in VR, combined with the fact it has crazy good audio design, it's hard to explain, but the game sounds so damn good. Watch this clip with headphones on.

@Titanbreakerkun @justnormalkorean Guess I'll just stick to Starsector if I need to scratch the "Space freebooter" itch.
Elite Dangerous' biggest strength, from what I've heard, is that it is very good looking to play in VR.

@Titanbreakerkun @justnormalkorean So if you are docked at a faction A space holding one day, there's a weekly update, and when you start the game again, you will be in the same holding by owned by a different faction?
I can understand what the developers were going for, but they should really just have made the single player offline, so it's instead more like Starsector or Mount & Blade.

Yup.
>they should really just have made the single player offline
Players have been begging for this, for years, but to no avail.

@Titanbreakerkun @justnormalkorean What if you for example help one faction take over a space holding in solo, does it just instantly switch out of nowhere for those who play multiplayer? And vice versa, I suppose.
-
It doesn't switch instantly, I think "power play" as it's called, updates once a week, I forgot how often it does. But yes, it does change out of the blue, much to the frustration of the online players.
If you play legit, then you can defend your system, by blowing the other player out of the sky.
-
That is correct, and is a huge topic for discussion on the official forums, and have been for years.
Basically you play the game on a shared server, but if you chose solo play, you are put into your own instance of the game, and can't see or interact with other players. You can however mess with some of the in game elements, like the political status of star systems (help rebel factions take over) Or affect the price of goods by trading massive bulk cargo, from system to system.
If there is a clan that is trying to take over a system, you can fuck with that clan in solo play, and they can't do shit about it, well other that out play you, like doing even more bulk trade for example.

These remind me of Elite Dangerous 😭
-
that looks dope. I should give it a try
-
It's always online, even if you play solo/single play. Plus the learning curve is pretty steep, the game is really only for the space sim autismo crowd
-
@Titanbreakerkun @justnormalkorean I've heard that even if you play solo, your actions are still supposed to make a difference in the space world of people who play online, and also other solo-players. How does that work?

Oh yeah man i bought a flight stick just for this in vr. Their design for every aspect is perfect.
