hello it's ricardo and welcome back to elite dangerous odyssey alpha phase one and i'm going
to be doing some transport missions because i have found that transport missions with a
zero threat are obviously the easiest ones to do they generally involve you going to a location
staying out of the way of people well i do anyway picking up some documents from a container
they give you all the access codes and you get anything between 70 and about 90 000 credits
per run couldn't be any easier you can multi-select these missions as well
like i say when you're just starting out in the game and you've only got the flight
suit and a mediocre weapon this could be the weight of getting extra credits in the elite
dangerous odyssey for you as you can see i've gone to a terminal in a space station
gone to transportation missions i'm scrolling down finding all the ones that are generally you know
low in threat level and i'm selecting them stacking them up because when you get out
there in a taxi instead of going back and forth back and forth between one mission and the station
taking up valuable time and let's face it it's a bit of a grind isn't it right stack them up
do a few there's a risk you could get caught out and you know the alpha nature of elite dangerous
odyssey could kick in and you could fail those missions but that's an acceptable risk i think
anyway if it is an acceptable risk for saving a little bit of time so as you can see i'm stacking
up on my missions once i've got those it's time to go and book a little bit of transportation in
the form of apex interstellar so i'm all done time to get upstairs and talk to the nice lady
so here we are apex interstellar for apex shuttle good old claudia cox uh for some reason it had
told me i had a booking i cancelled that there was no dramas i want to book a long range shuttle
for some reason short range from the station was causing some crashes i'm selecting my destination
i'll go for the closest one first so i can see where my current location is
on the station and then there's my destination on planet
select the mission icon hold the mouse button down they take a hundred credits off me
and it's time to get myself to apex interstellar shuttle to taxi me to my
destination so here the turbo lifts as soon as you get that notification that says departing in
two minutes to get to your shuttle they'll unlock and they'll let you get yourself down to
the hangar bay once you're in the hangar bay then depending really on your settings i've found you
may get some rubbish strewn around the hangar bay you may not either way i think it's not as sterile
as what it was there's my shuttle over to the front of the entrance ramp press i am bored
now during the alpha this is where it comes to be really boring
it's the wait it's the taxi ride without you having to do anything
but as we said after a short while later no more than 10 to 12 minutes perhaps
um as being a passenger in that taxi you get to go planetside and look at the renderings
of the elite dangerous odyssey planets much better got a nice purple hue over it as well
skies have done an awful lot of work on it textures on the planets about a lot of work
on it as well and this is still an alpha one of the great things about being a taxi passenger
is it does afford you an awful lot of time to use the external camera and admire how lovely
elite dangerous odyssey is gonna be or is at the moment you know like you say it is still an alpha
look at the base there's a little taxi our apex interstellar landing on the pad you can
get a good idea of the layout of the base as well with the external camera i think a
lot more people are going to be using that too once you're down it's time to disembark
now this mission a transport mission collect documents we haven't got to take anything with us
other missions do require us to take something with us now here's a couple of pointers as well
you'll see some guards wandering around i tend to steer clear of them anyway right if they do
cross paths with you what you need to do is stop let them scan you if you haven't been a naughty
commander that is although i've taken the stealth approach i'm approaching the hab you can see it's
the hub because it's got hab written on top of it now i've been granted clearance to get in here
no dramas so i can just approach that door no cutting no access code required straight in
towards the terminal now you may get questioned by some of the scientists and other people around
but generally if you stay out of their way they'll stay out of yours accessing the achilles operating
system terminal over to facility now we're looking to collect the container 11 the item from
container 11 in the dorm of the habitat you need to go to habitat select that on the left hand side
and then try and find container 11. now given it says oh it's in the dorm or it's in
the recreation area or whatever don't take that in the alpha as a given i have found some of
these containers outside okay so the information on the objective was wrong but again like we say
elite dangerous odyssey is in alpha so i've selected the container i want container 11 and
now we've got to try and get to where that little yellow target is so in through some more doors
into the dorm
got food dispensers bunks lockers another scientist with a laser weapon
approach the container interact with it
type in your code 0902 in this case hit the tick
and there's the personal documents collect those
time to make your way outside now what i've learned is as soon as you've got this mission
item it's worthwhile calling apex interstellar for a shuttle you're going to need a dust off
you're going to need an evac right and it doesn't they're not there instantaneously so it's probably
good practice to say right set your destination while you're in the complex while nobody else is
scanning you or bothering you or anything else i mean i'll be going on to my next destination
which is a military complex so my shuttle is booked time to make my way outside
and hopefully the shuttle won't be too long there's the airlock out we go
retrace my footsteps again staying out of the way of any sentry skimmers staying out
of the way of any soldiers making my way over to the landing pad and we'll get the
notification that the shuttle is inbound when the shuttle's inbound see you can see it coming in
time to make my way over to the landing pad wait for it to land
and it's time either to go on to your next mission
or go back to the originating station and collect your money
it is as simple as that but when i say it's as simple as that make sure these are threat
level zero if they're anything above that then you might get into a little bit of mischief
into board the taxi and away we go well that was how to do a threat level zero
transport mission to collect some personal documents from a settlement
looks easy there's a steep learning curve here which i'm sure everyone who's played the alpha
will agree visuals can be stunning game can be glitchy but again we are still in alpha i've
been ricardo thanks very much for watching check back for more elite dangerous odyssey
videos in the future and we stream live on a saturday and sunday i'll see you soon
you
