It makes sense for the carrier to make noises like that. Guess why the lockdown includes closing the bulkheads, hatches, and airlocks? It is to give more stability and in case of hull breaks, the whole carrier wouldn't tear apart in hyperspace.

What's incredible to me is that there seems to be a difference between the jump protocols and Capital-class Frameshift Drives on Carriers and those found on Farragut-class Battlecruisers and Majestic-class Interdictors. Let me explain. When a Fleet Carrier has a jump scheduled, it enters Pre-Jump countdown. What's interesting to note is that the status monitors around the ship refer to this first 10 minutes as the "Lockdown Protocol". It's assumed that all over the ship, essential systems are being secured; tools put away, living quarters locked down, anything that isn't bolted down gets bolted down. Once the 3 Minute mark hits, the landing pads on the Carrier are retracted into the ship and carrier services are offline and the rest of the carrier is secured; Commercial areas lock up, all personnel must find a seat, etc. What's notable is the "Maintenance Teams In Place" at 1:10 on the clock. After this, the Frameshift Drive is activated from it's dormant state then spun up, something that can be heard from *outside* the carrier by a fair distance. Once this happens, almost all of the lights inside and outside the carrier dim down, as if power to every non-essential system is being fed into the Frameshift Drive. It makes it short jump, emerges at its destination then promptly relaxes and the drive can be heard spooling down. Security Teams check the status of the internals and life goes on. Now let's compare this to what little we know of a Capital Warship jump. Capital Warships arrive at the signal source in a HIgh-Intensity conflict zone, where their overwhelming firepower is required. One jumps in, and the weapon hardpoints can be deployed and all hell breaks loose. Here's the interesting thing; destroying the heat relays on the exterior causes what's called a "Thermal Cascade event" in which the heat from all of the weaponry and other systems overloads all of the ship systems and threatens to render it inoperable. When this happens, the ship initates an emergency Frameshift jump, no spool up, no announcement, just open the portal and off it goes. If the Frameshift Drives on all Capital-class vessels are the same, this shouldn't be possible, as Farragut-class or Majestic-class can be routed within 3 minutes of it appearing with optimal fire. This leads me to the following conclusion; Drake-class Fleet Carriers and its derivatives are very, very, VERY unsuited for Frameshift jumping. The ship itself is long and narrow, with little height or width, and if not for the Zero-Gravity aspects of space, would probably snap in half under its own weight. Every jump damages the carrier itself, causing stress to the hull, and probably damaging some interior components as well. Unlike Military grade Capital Warships, which are expected to jump in and out of zones whenever, Fleet Carriers simply don't have that capability. Just an interesting observation I've made over the time I've been playing.

@winterscrescendo

Жыл бұрын

"Every jump damages the carrier itself, causing stress to the hull, and probably damaging some interior components as well." That's actually confirmed in lore and in the gameplay mechanics. Every jump costs 100,000 credits in additional maintenance costs from the stress of the jump. That doesn't automatically mean they're less suited for it than the military ships though. Rather, Military ships built for combat will be prepared to use systems in ways that would be considered too unsafe for civilian use. The spool-up on a frame-shift drive indicates that a generator or fly-wheel (mechanical energy storage) is being bought up to full speed. If it's a flywheel, then it could just be a mechanical back-up in case of main power loss mid-jump, which would make a lot of sense from a safety perspective. A Military ship in a combat situation however may deem it an acceptable risk to jump without that backup in place - and may not even have one fitted as a weight saving measure. Internal volume and mass could be used for a higher capacity powerplant or thicker armour instead. If the 'spool-up' is the ships primary generator coming up into a high-output state that it normally doesn't need, that could still be explained by the Military ships just keeping their generator 'hot' in combat situations so they're ready to go whenever. As for the maintenance and wear aspects, we get no visibility into the running costs of the warships. However, given that military vehicles even today are pushed far harder than civilian vehicles and have much harder maintenance cycles as a result, it really wouldn't surprise me if the warships also suffer a heavy 'jump-tax' on their maintenance budget.

I'm assuming that from the massive amounts of stress incurred by the jump, if a civilian Fleet Carrier were to be hypothetically hyperdicted by a 'Goid, I am assuming it would be absolutely shredded when when your vessel typically twists and writhes. I would also guess that would be the reason why we never hear about it occurring, because they would just turn into those massive debris fields we can find with Thargoids lurking through them. Of course this is all just hypothetical, but fun to think about lol.

The transition at the jump exit is absolutely discusting but nice jump sequence overall.

1. Warp Drive - This is a type of FTL Travel that caused spacetime to form like a wave causing the spacetime ahead to contract and expand from behind the ship like surfing the water but without the water. 2. Hyperspace - This is a form of FTL Travel that traverse the other-dimensional region of space in our universe without the limitations of real space that would enable the ship to travel faster than light speed. 3. Jump Drive - this is a form of FTL Travel that creates a spacetime bubble on the ship and teleports the ship into another region of space instantaneously. 4. Wormhole - This is a form of FTL Travel that folds 2 points of space by tearing a hole in spacetime like a black hole but without the gravity of an actual black hole 5. Dimensional Travel - This is a form of FTL Travel that creates a tunnel to another dimension much like Hyperspace. But Hyperspace only travels on a separate dimension from real space, but Dimensional Travel lets a ship enter other parts of dimensions of our universe 4D, 5D, 6D, or even 7D dimensional lane and exiting to real space on another region of space of our universe. 6. Interdimensional Travel - This is a form of FTL Travel that let a ship travel inside and between a Parallel Universe or The Multiverse and acts as a shortcut to travel into another point in real space upon exiting. Elite Dangerous Odyssey only has Faster Than Speed of Light Travel via Hyperspace like in star wars. Folding Space is for Wormholes and Bending space is for Warp Drives

FSDs use both acubuliere transit and hyperspace. Supercruise is the acubuliere drive in work. When jumping system to system it is hyperspace. However hyperspace travel is technically the older drive, most capital ships in elite only have hyperspace capability due to FSDs not being ready for use in capital ships. You will never see a capital ship in supercruise.

This is why Thargoids don't have supercruise, they can only jump from place to place and use sublight thrusters once there. The irony is that when you are in supercruise, you are in a state that Thargoids cannot keep up or even catch you with. Not in hyperspace, but still able to travel FTL.

It’s now a whole year ago but lorewise: small ship fsd’s are newer and work by creating and tethering a tunnel to the highest gravity well in a system (normally the star itself). Capital ship fsd’s are older technology, use tritium instead of hydrogen and rip a tear in realspace. The capital ship doesn’t “jump” anywhere but enters into hyperspace through the tear and travels in there wherever it wants to. Technically this allows capital ships also to stay nearly indefinitely in hyper space to appear whenever they want to, but we don’t have a mechanic ingame for player carriers (npc capitals can do that)

Basically: Our ship FSDs are basically warp drivers from Star Trek, except the edge between ftl and entering Elite's version of subspace (WitchSpace) is rather large. CC-FSDs are more of a misnomer than anything, as they operate more like Stargate hyperspace drives - tear a hole and ride through it. They can stay in witchspace for as long as hull integrity allows, and fly through it much faster than our warp-bullet-adjacent ships.

Please fix the "cannot disembark from my ship docked on player fleet carrier" bug.

I still think Carrier's should have been one time purchases and not what we have currently. I get it for the realism, but having to do constant upkeep that can be very expensive in a game where everything is expensive and making money is very difficult (sometimes, a lot of the time...) is a little ridiculous. A one time expensive purchase where services are also expensive purchases would be ideal. Especially considering you also have to pay to fuel the thing with resources that are hard to come across and when someone finds huge deposit of them it's basically scavenged clean in a mere few days

I must've seen a dozen jumps and only just noticed that the landing pads instantly appear open after exiting the jump, instead of having an animation.

How do you have this view when jumping with your fleet carrier?

One thing that I find to be an minor but annoying oversight is how the landing pads are retracted and secured prior to a jump... But once the FC emerges on the other side, the landing pads are immediately in their active state again and there is no animation for the hangars reopening.

As cool as the hyperspace Jump itself is, they could have done a lot to make it something much cooler. We know from the lore that the Capital Class FSDs are older, more human tech than the smaller stuff we have for our personal ships, which have more stuff reverse-engineered from Thargoid tech. Because of this, it would have been awesome, and made sense, if there had been multiple visible phases of travel while inside Witchspace. Take for example: Phase 1: Normal Entry Phase 2: Acceleration: Have the ship groan and creek further, add some of the classic, or better yet, new, FSD noises while you have the Hyperspace Corridor visibly accelerate in how it passes you. Phase 3: Coasting: your standard traversal. It doesn't have to last long, but what you could do is have the ship and/or the FSD make increasingly more stressed noises, to show the technology of our ships being pushed to their operational limits. Phase 4: Breach: So, you know how normal ships just "BWAMP" into position at the end of a hyperjump? I imagine a world where the FSD has to pierce its way back into Realspace properly. Perhaps model this alongside a rapid deceleration inside of Witchspace, but what I envision is a sort of ethereal or astral cloth that's getting pushed and stretched by the Carrier as it starts exiting, the sort of effect you'd get from the carrier trying to quite literally pierce through the veil between the two dimensions, back into Realspace. Phase 5: Standard Exit

That exit is so scuffed

No, it is a 3D construct. The abrupt cut is due to you being immedietly transported to another location, and it is not always properly loaded as every hyperspace jump basically is a loading screen. The clouds do dissipate 'normally' sometimes but even then it doesn't really look that good

It's Not a video it's a Realtime cut scene but they didn't really put effort in it

can you own this in elite?

Interstellar Greyhound buses.

Yes because lightning is space 👍

Wait, is there a new carrier?

That layout always existed since carriers were added

they do it so much better than sc

It’s almost perfect but that transition from jumping to real space…. The landing pads just suddenly appearing again…. Cmon man.

That poor bastard was just lying there unable to do anything 😂

the thunder sound is kinda funyn given theres no air in space

It is a nessecary compromise of the game, imagine all the shooting and exploding and thargoids withut the sounds in space. Realistically you should only be able to hear when objects hit your ship

The suit on your character connects with your ship. The suit or ship sort of generates the appropriate sounds that you would hear if there was air.

thats actually just the warp

See? Was it so hard to add a window lol

10 min to jump... Thats a loooong time when you have to leave like a bat out of hell.

I'd come back to Elite. If they let us actually Pilot the Capital ships... but that'll happen in never

I like how I set the goal of getting a fleet carrier so I could be the buddy barge for all my friends and by the time I ground my way to it, not only are my friends not playing anymore but the game's now owned by a chinese company and is so broken when they did try to come back we just spent 3 hours dealing with instancing issues then moved onto another game. Britain does nothing good anymore it seems.

It tacks along time for a ship like this to warp . Because every time on one the ship I live on it feels like I’m going to ether die or just get thrown around . Man I hate living on a large cargo ship as a stowaway

this is cool as shit

Whoa, people are still playing this zombie game? It effectively died when they tried to charge triple A prices for every expansion.

15 for initial jump + ~5 minutes cooldown after every jump. This is just the normal operation. Depending on server load, jump time can be over an hour

now why does it need 10 minutes wth

@BrittTheFurry

15 minutes. 5 minutes for cancellation. T- 10 min jump location is confirmed. At this point, the server registers an upcoming marker change. T 0 marker changes location and ship executes jump. For anyone at the new location, the ship exits hyperspace. 15 minutes allow to reduce stress on the server since at any given time you could have several carriers jumping. If too many carriers try to jump, they increas the jumptime to avoid a server crash

It tooks 1 min. FSD Charge 😂

Oh, super awesome: TWO ads to REALLY ruin the immersion. 😢

I have to say, that is super corny. Stationary clouds and lightning? Ummmmm. Okay. I'm so glad Star Citizen exists.

so much could have been done but well. i hope there are any capable dev out there will buy it from the rubbish Fdev. was so excited to the original fleet concept with my mate to operate it as a squadron .... instead it is a glorified personal moving storage box that burn your money for nothing. crew eating your stuff unable to send out even for the most basic resource gathering or dispatch mission and the like.

Crappiest gameplay design, but sound design crew of ED earn applause

oh god, does it have to be 10 fucking minutes before jumping????

Man the 9 minutes of absolutely nothing happening was so exciting...

And I will will never make enough credits in the game, or dump enough hours to maintain one because.. wait for it.. I have a LIFE... When I gotta dump weeks of my life to get a carrier and months to maintain and keep it, then it becomes a job... Carriers are cool, but no thanks..

@@coverwatch with how easy getting over a year’s worth of upkeep is, I did that and don’t play for months on end and it barely dents my money deposit. Get into contact with Pilot’s Trade Network if you are interested in doing the same

So boring...sit there and do nothing outside of jumping lol

What an anti-climactic jump 😂
