Just bought this game, I played the original on Commodore 64 back in the 80's am so looking forwards to this. Thank you for your great tutorials in helping everyone get up to speed and gain maximum enjoyment of their playing experience. :)
+Mark Spies Happy to help :)
I got 200,000 in the first hour just messing around...
look out for smuggling missions in your starter ship, and just dock quickly, avoid any interdictions, even if you do get caught, some have 100,000+ rewards...so a 5000 fine is not a problem really
Awesome vid! Gave me some handy tips! I was completely lost and didn't know what direction to take but now I'm a bit more clear. Thank you!!
I love you man. This is the best video to watch if you are just getting started thank you so much!
I purchased this game through Steam because I have an Scitec X-55 HOTAS. Both the game and HOTAS have steep learning curves but I think my testing of Star Citizen's Arena Commander has made this training fairly fast. My only recommendation is should you get your hands on any HOTAS is to take it off the desk and fasten to your armrests. Your hands will ache if you use your HOTAS on the desk. Only minor problem with Elite Dangerous is my nave points often drop out and I have to look left for resetting my navigation points. Not a good thing if you are about to get jumped by a pirate or pirate player.
Great video man. I rarely comment, but I'd just like to give you props.
Thank you man... the fact that you rarely comment makes it all the more potent, so again thank you to you! :)
If you want to get rich. max out your cargo and begin trading as soon as you can. Preferably as soon as you can get your hands on a hauler. Than find a lucrative trade route near you using one of many trading websites dedicated to Elite Dangerous. Right now smuggling missions are very lucrative and not very hard but you'll need a ship with a long jump range. But this might be nerfed soon.
This is really good for someone really new. Thanks mate
Glad to help.
Did the same on original Elite decades ago, 34 years approx. Apart from being able to sell weapons etc.
Just picked up the game yesterday. Thanks for the tips. Subbed

Instead of hauling for $2k-5k, go to system Nav Points (when you jump into a new system and arrive at the star, there will be a Nav Point nearby) and lock on to every ship that comes in. Some will have WANTED tags. Kill them (easy, and AI ships help you) and get $10k-20k per kill. Just hang around there until you're on low health or earned enough to upgrade some stuff. You collect the bounties at any station in the system you killed them usually (in the contact tab of the station menu).
Good luck!
+darrellkiely91 All hail based nav beacon!
either that or resource extraction sites for pythons. gotta get those juicy 150k+ pirate booty bounties
+darrellkiely91 how do you attack when in Super cruise? I can spot them but can't attack. I started trading cuz I don't know how to mine and can't collect bounties. and I really don't know how to trade cuz it doesn't let me buy from the markets
+MrCabledawg45 To attack people in supercruise you need a special part for your ship. Don't bother with that kind of thing when you're starting out though.
Instead of looking for ships flying around a system, go to the 'Nav Beacon' located at the star you arrive at when you jump between systems.
Exit super cruise at the nav beacon and lots of ships will come and go. You can kill any wanted ships there to rack up some bounties. Then you cash the bounties in at the nearest space station in that same system.
Thank you very much!
Great video, really informative to those of us who just bought this game off steam. I had no idea I could upgrade the sidewinder to 10t that quickly, I've been doing 4t missions for a while now and I have about 12k so far but really didn't have a clue about the outfitters thing.
Mr Walrus Aye, to many new players the outfitters is a strange and wonderful land where not a lot makes sense but were all fairly sure it's a good thing!
I really like ED, but for some odd reason I can't play it for long. I find that I don't really feel comfortable enough playing the game to really sit and play for prolonged periods of time.
I think the issue I'm having is probably due to not being experienced enough which is an odd conundrum. I can't play for long to get more experience to be more comfortable to play for long...go figure.
Mr Walrus Huh... That really is a Catch-22!
great video' well presented and very noob friendly' I've subscribed and look forward to more' thanks
thanks! this really helped
DETNTCraft You're welcome! :)
I know its been long time for this video, but the best way to make quick money at the beginning is chasing pirates mission. As your ship doesn't cost anything, and you can get used with your keys in combat... The hauling is really long process compared to bounties where you can get 60K on your 1st mission (bounty + mission credits) with your stock ship.
+Yanick Ranzi Need to remake this video soon as there have been some fairly major changes to the game since recording.
+Commander ChaosWulff I'd like to see the updated version when you make it. Also a trade video. I've seen others but your guides compared to others on other topics seem much better and optimized.
I found best way to make money at start is missions specially those asking to collect black box , military plans ... etc just make sure the mission is from outpost to not get scanned upon delivery .
Aye, they are a good way to get money though they aren't always available and require you to sacrifice a goat to the gods of USS RNG... I prefer the guaranteed paycheck of the courier missions as I found them to be faster overall. That's just my preference though. :)
best method for me so far: get to a nav-beacon (near a system´s sun) and just look around...there are lot´s of ships... wait until you see some fighting, look for a "WANTED" one being involved and help killing it... do that a few times and go to a station to cash-in... repeat... i made 200k with little effort that way...
important:it´s not adviced to just shoot randomly at a wanted one who is not involved in a fight already...might be the case he has friends ...
ty chaoswulff, you have made my decision to buy this game an easy one
forzafan92 You're welcome... And you know what? I should start getting some kickbacks from Frontier ;)
Is there and guide on your channel what explains elite dangerous in general,like what it is and what you can ?
Cheers! This is great! Better than looking for bounties/traders/pirates as it takes forever :(
cav cav Happy to help :)
Commander ChaosWulff bullshit... if you go to crowded asteroid belt you can get on bounties about 500k/hour... and you get reputation with the system owners and combat skills
Šimon Chytil Perhaps so but not everyone wants to go for combat right away... This video is for everyone not just those that are more comfortable with combat.
Bought the game yesterday, I've been enjoying it since then, I already made like 85 credits in my 1st day, it took me an hour straight to get used to the controls (Xbox 360 gamepad) but the game itself is awesome, hopefully I'll get better over time :P
TinchoX I'm pretty sure that you'll be a god among the stars in no time :)
And I meant 85k not 85 credits alone, today's been a whole week since I got the game, just got my Type-6 Freighter for long-trading sessions.
I do have a combat ship stationed just in case~ Cobra Mk III is the way~
Ranking up nice and smoothly.
TinchoX You're doing really well!
Well... far better than me at least.
You only get the missions you can actually complete. So if you do not have enough cargo space or your jump range is to short the mission will not be available to you.
Not sure if that is true... Or if the game has been updated to include this as I used to get a lot of missions that I cannot complete... I think I still do but with my memory as it is I cannot be 100% sure.
Christian Behrends not true, i started playing just weeks ago and i had some problems with impossible missions in the beginning (jump range too short)
xx1simon1xx Well that's cleared that up... :)
I have just got the game I found that exploration was is a fast earner do you have a exploration video?
Not yet but it is high on my to do list
For anyone reading this first I now have an Exploration Tutorial video and the link is: czcams.com/video/6xHtVqPi-_4/video.html
So uh, this game came out first. Right. Oh Kay. Then, a year or so later, the developers who made No Man Sky, decided to add a first person exploration type game, WHICH, you can ride your ship almost anywhere you want, right? Wow. So they took a few ideas from this game and claim NMS is like no other. Hmm. Right? This game though, seems challenging (which I like), and more interesting then going out and buying a NMS and a ps4. I might buy this game soon. All of what I said, is my own opinion and i could be wrong.
Nice safe approach but blowing away space scum is sooo much more lucrative. Got a fairly well fitted Viper in a few hours bounty hunting.
Where do i buy ships? no station i have ever been to shows ship buying or something llike that where i can buy New ships.
kevinstinger22 Not all star ports have shipyards but it's a good bet that the larger ones will have one nine times out of ten.
Commander ChaosWulff Okay, thanks mate. :D
Do you use a joystick? If so which one?
Aye, I use the Thrustmaster T16000M
You didn't talk at all about the pirate hunting missions.
Those can be extremely lucrative at the beginning as you get credits for claiming bounties as well as for completing the mission.
You are correct sir.. .I didn't mention them as I was guessing most new players wouldn't want to try combat so early on in the game.
Commander ChaosWulff Just as a disclaimer, I don't actually own the game yet. Unfortunately I can't buy the damn thing because I don't have a credit card and prepaid cards don't seem to work with international transactions (I'm from the U.S.) I can't buy 100% sure about this, though - I have had success buying stuff internationally with American Express cards, and I'll be trying that next. If not, oh well, I have a pair of gift cards I can spend whenever.
That being said, combat is likely how I'll be making my money to start with, and looking at how these pirate missions. I already have goals in mind when I play; I plan on getting myself a Cobra, fully kit it out for a combination of bounty hunting and exploration. I will likely buy a second Cobra to do mining and trading in. I don't like what I'm reading about the Asp in relation to its high maintenance costs, so until I have a big cash balance I'm not touching anything larger than the Cobras.
I do want to do some good ol' space tourism though. Flying to stars like Rigel or exploring the Pleiades star cluster, or grasping the sheer magnitude in size of stars like Betelgeuse and Antares. Perhaps going into these stellar forge nebulae and seeing all the combinations of stars.
I've wanted to do this kind of stuff since I was in grade school, and this game gives me a tool to do it. Unfortunately, Frontier Developments are a UK company and it's enormously difficult for those of us in America to pick the game up if we don't have credit cards. It's why I was absolutely crushed when I heard the game was not going on Steam.
Damn... That sucks dude... I'll be honest I have no idea how you would go about buying the game from America... I myself live in Norway and have had no issues with purchasing the game but that may be to do with me still being in Europe... But I wish you well with getting the game.
As to your plans: I like them... I myself wasn't brave enough to start off in combat and began my career as space crap-out lugging cargo until I had enough capital to start mining.
From personal experience I would recommend trying out the Viper for combat as its shields are far superior to those of the Cobras and it can be fully upgraded for around 3 million as opposed to the Cobra's 5-ish million (not 100% sure on exact numbers but it's a lot more than the Viper)
I wish you well in the void and perhaps I'll see you out there!
NaarghultheShadow Use paypal?
StMargorach I believe that requires a credit card. Or at least it requires giving out information I am not comfortable giving out. I could go with Green Dot cards, but again, that requires information I am not comfortable giving away.
hey buddy! i know you probably get this a lot but it would b great if you could add me in game and take me to where all the action is happening with regards to the empire vs federation stuff. if you dont want to add me can you give me the system name of where big battles have been happening recently?
Mighty Norman forgot to mention im flying out a viper worth nearly 3 million :D very nice and effective ship in combat
Mighty Norman I can add you but can't spare the time to show you the system personally... I would however recommend checking out this link where you can search lots of things in games like Conflict Zones: infolimpet.tk/
Commander ChaosWulff u are de best
Mighty Norman WHatever I can do to help... Within reason ;)
what system is this for?
+Aaron DIckerson No specific system... It's just a general guide
I understand, but is this game for PC, PS4, X-box 3630?
It's on PC, Mac and Xbone so far :)
lol....thanks bro!
how 2 get rich: go to a nav beacon and wait for some pirate candy.
HUI Mines? Серьезно?
How'd u get so much money man the most I've ever had is like 50k
Lots and lots of trading! And Bounty hunting when I get bored and need to kill stuff! ;)
Commander ChaosWulff Can I make that much doing just bounty hunting? because thats all ive been doing so far. all the missions i see on bulletin boards is either to kill someone or deliver a message. how can i get started trading? i wanna make some biiiiiiiig bucks lol!
thegr8rambino Good... Problem with me is that I need to try everything for he sake of the channel.... The luxury of doing what I want is long behind me ;)
Nicholas Logan wow nice yea i think i made about a million one night too, but it doesnt happen as often as id like lol
thegr8rambino RES area's NPC wanted bountyhunting. My record is 500k under 20min. Watch out for your firing and scan all before firing. There is normaly tons of cops who will assist you kill bigger ships like Anaconda or anything which is wanted. (1k from smallers (harmless sidewinder) and up to 250k (master anaconda). elite-dangerous.wikia.com/wiki/Bounty_Hunter its bit boring because they wont give you much danger to die them (sometimes if NPC is in wing, they all start to attack you if they arent already taken another player / police, its bit problematic sometimes).
I personally find money in this game to be way to easy to earn, 1.8 mil earned my first day playing.
+WaluigiIV Teach me, I made 2 mil, in around 40-45 hours, which was a 4 days
Slave Trading... That is all you need to know
WaluigiIV thank you my friend...
This starts off being completely wrong, the sidewinder you start off with only has a range of 5.82 ly. FAIL.
