v.redd.itTight flying, CMDR. Real pleasure to watch. Had me going on a few of those turns, really thought you'd have left behind more paint.

It looks like a little commander saluting! As simple as that.
11

What's dry cap?

A capacitor that's out of energy :)

Ope... that's scary lmao

Just goes to show how much of a missed opportunity races are in elite. All you need for fun races in elite is a place like this, scatter some checkpoints to make a circuit or a point to point route, add a ceiling so people can't just fly over the route and maybe add some hazards to spice things up. It amazes me how frontier never ever explored something like this before.

You can always play legacy for this terrain. It doesn't interfere with what you do in Odyssey. In some ways it's better than it's ever been before. You can park up your hooning ships at a good location in 3.8 without it ever getting in the way of your EDO gameplay.
17
That’s exactly what they should’ve done instead of the failed CQC.
3
I'd love to race but even if we could I'm just using keyboard and mouse and would have smeared my carcass all over that first turn wall lol.
2
Could easily work for multiplayer, but I can see why they wouldn't if solo players couldn't. They seem to really not want to make AI that can handle ships really well, it's the reason why I don't think we have seen bots in CQC

Considering the assets are aeeaentually already there (as evidenced by the flight tutorial)

This, with Hotas and in VR, it feels incredible

HOSAS in VR, o7 cmdr

They should make pod racing for odyssey
8
They'd need to make it capable of generating somewhere to race first 😂
11
I mean this terrain isn’t too far off from what they’d want. Maybe just make this valleys and peaks a little smaller.

Yeah, but this isn't Odyssey.
Odyssey terrain is comparatively shit
2
Man, this is gorgeous.. I really need to play it.
7
Great flying! Since jumping over into the Verse I miss those deep canyons. We have Daymar and the Anvil Arrow, but nothing as deep as that 😢.
7
Odyssey right? Where are these at? I’m trying to set up a squadron race and haven’t had any luck finding a location since the split.
2
Odyssey does not generate terrain like this. You need to be in 3.8 to get such deep canyons.
3
Right I know they aren’t that deep, I’ve looked. I was referring to what SpeedTorque said about Daymar and Anvil.
1
SpeedTorque was referring to Star Citizen. The Anvil Arrow is a small nimble ship like the Eagle , and Daymar is a moon with canyons that are fun to fly through (though not as deep as this video).

Eagle curse. Worth it though 🍻
6
You know I cry every time mate 😂
4
As someone who is fond of the eagle I haven't heard of this before, what's the eagle curse?
3
Dying due to dry cap!
Most Eagle deaths whilst hooning are a result of this curse, and it's sent many over to Team Viper - where the death rate is even higher 😂
7
How do you get a dry cap and why?
2
Boosting uses ENG capacitor, and even with a G5 ENG focused + super conduit 2A power distributor (the best you can get for it) ... The Eagle cannot recharge its capacity fast enough to allow continual boosting.
When it runs out, you can't boost. This is very often fatal when flying hard, as boosts are used to turn, brake and avoid impact.

You're a braver pilot than I, CMDR
That's some damn fine flying o7

Thank you cmdr, appreciated :) o7
