Hello commanders commander Ricardo here and welcome back to elite dangerous
beyond elite dangerous beyond is currently going through a community goal
as of November 20 19 cent it around a generation ship called the Golconda now
the goal Condor is different to the other generation ships that we've
currently seen in the past now what do I mean by that these other generation
ships have always played and displayed logs that have told of some disaster or
misfortunate event whether it be an outbreak of virus catastrophic technical
failure mass murders all that sort of thing right which paints a story of woe
and hardship the Golconda however is different these people are indeed still
alive that's right folks they're still alive and they're floating through space
in their tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of people the captain has
reached out for aid and help and there are several logs which I've done in the
previous video which you can listen to to hear a bit of backstory now what's
this all about well the Golconda systems are failing and they also have a medical
breakout write a virus breakout now the captain's reached out for aid from
surrounding people and for commanders that come in and to supply them with
typical items such as aluminium semiconductors basic medicines ceramic
composites advanced medicines now all these are generally widely available and
they have to be brought to a certain port
now the Golconda is currently residing in the upper Nikolas system now there's
a station there for all support which will allow you to drop off anything that
you collect for this particular community goal as you can see if the
community goals it states a generation ship with a living population has indeed
been discovered in the upper Nikolas system but the vessels outdated
facilities are struggling to meet the needs of its crew the inhabitants have
reported the lack of maintenance materials and medical supplies the
latter being made more pertinent by a virus that is indeed
sweeping through the ship now a per Nicholas vision in corporate gave the
following statement these visitors have crossed incredible distances entirely
disconnected from the rest of humanity until now sheer desperation has forced
these proud people to call for help a deniz disease referred to as the
wasting kiss is running rampant through the Golconda in a closed environment its
effects may prove to be catastrophic understandably the goal conda's people
are reluctant to leave their home or interact with the rest of the galaxy
traders are asked to deliver medicines advanced medicines aluminium ceramic
composites and semiconductors to for support in the upper Nikolas system now
you sign up to this goal you then go off and source the materials and then get
them back the upper Nikolas station job then but also people are out there to do
some piracy so what is good you can also sign up to a more combat orientated
initiative drop into the combat zones take out some people get the bounties
and you can make some serious money as well as get some additional kills to
rate towards that elite dangerous they leap ranking for combat very
elusive do you get a hell of a lot of ships so
I'm currently sourced some of these materials in Rutherford port in the suya
system which is about two hops away in my cutter now I've got my cutter all
sorted out now with a guardian frameshift drive booster class a
frameshift I can get about thirty four thirty five fully laden in the cutter
and jump across two distances to jumps and I'm there from a per Nicholas to the
sewer system and then you've got Rutherford port it's a high-tech port
you can get your aluminium there you can get your semiconductors there your
medicines and your advanced medicines although you cannot get ceramic
composites there but you can use tools like EDD B to try and source those as
well should you want to deliver some of those now this is like any other
community goal it's going to be a little bit of back and forth into dispersed
with a little bit of combat as as you're coming back with it a cargo load full of
these items aluminium semiconductors medicines and the like to get back to
the Golconda you're going to be interdicted so you need some sort of
protection you need some sort of weaponry and that's why I've brought the
cutter this is my warship of choice for me a rated loads of armor
I like it heavily-armed I mean he can take out the most persistent anaconda or
at least give it a bloody nose well you can spin up your frameshift drives and
theoretically get out of there now for Zod port isn't too far away from the
jumping point okay so it'll take you a little while to get there but no more
than say two to three minutes well that's okay by doing some clever
management with your modules you can reduce your heat signature and therefore
make it more difficult to people to interdict you if you're playing in open
then you're gonna be fair game for every pirate and ganker in the system who's
gonna want to take what you've got and cash in and get your spoils now so far
in regards to the rewards you'll get this community goal you get what they
call global rewards which for me is so far unquantified but actual about just
shy of 12 million credits for your for your your duties for your for your
effort that's if you get in the top tier I'm banging through it now and I'm
currently in the top 25% but that might have changed overnight
typically this particular goal is going to run until the 14th of November we're
halfway through now on the 12th of November and it looks like it may well
finish just before time so if you are gonna get involved I suggest you get
yourself over to the system look at the logs for the gold Condor and then once
you've looked for the logs of the gold Condor my suggestion is sign up for that
community goal either do a little bit of combat which can be exciting although
sometimes expensive depending on the ship you use or start shipping some
material from some of the surrounding ports using tools like EDD be to the
gold Condor in the upper necklace system and make a little bit of money I feel
good about yourself helping all those souls that are currently on the Golconda
in need of help this disease the wasting kiss in death indeed there's sound a bit
nasty the wasting kiss hmm I got visions of zombies with the lips
peeled back on it who knows and then once this is finished
is the Golconda still gonna be a visible thing whence the whence this initiative
finishes what's frontier what's after devs purpose for it it's just gonna stay
there are they gonna change the logs you know that you know that the the medical
emergency has indeed been has been quelled we don't know and they still
gonna be looking for materials to be brought in is this gonna be a
reoccurring initiative or do they just change the logs take the logs off and
make it sort of a dead ship thanks for your efforts
we tried didn't didn't do anything we failed the virus has swept through the
ship and it becomes an in-game to fact or is it gonna carry on its merry way
the change of logs please don't come near here a warning
beacon you know don't trespass don't interact with us don't show us on board
that you've got better ships than us and all our stuff is really dated now you
can see is then put in the a din for the Golconda on that community goal so five
I've just donated a hundred and forty turns here don't get worried when you're
selling things at the commodities market okay in regards this the community goal
to do a community goal obviously you sign up you get the materials you come
back to the station of choice you go to the commodities market and you sell and
that automatically gets added to your total for that particular
community goal don't get worried if things don't show up immediately there
is a little bit of a lag go away get a cup of coffee and come back and your
efforts will be reflected in that particular community goal always been
the same hasn't changed and you can see it does give you a breakdown as well of
how many contributors what the global progress is and how much time is indeed
left for this particular community go on so there you go but it's showing and
throwing better back and for the community go I think is a good one a
good little bit of story surrounding this generation ship the gold Condor
this time and the materials that they need are not too hard to find either two
jumps away with a big ships such as the cutter and if you've got a better ship
with a bigger jump range than that then you are going to be absolutely
diamond-encrusted because you will be doing it in one jump and you'll get to
the top track ranking 11 million credits and a bit more will be yours anyway
