From the forum announcement:

Explore distant worlds on foot, expand the frontier of known space and leave your mark on the galaxy as you become the first person in history to explore lands untouched since time began.

So you've disembarked, you're standing for the first time on an unexplored planet. What can you do next? Here's an overview of what you can look forward to in Elite Dangerous: Odyssey.


One Giant Leap

See the galaxy like never before. Touch down on breathtaking planets powered by stunning new tech, soak in suns rising over unforgettable vistas, discover outposts and settlements, and explore with unrestricted freedom.


Forge Your Own Path

Take on a wide variety of contracts and play your way, from diplomacy and commerce to lethal stealth and all-out combat. Diverse settings, objectives, and NPCs offer endless mission variety and a near infinite amount of content to enjoy.


Assemble Your Crew

Social hubs spread throughout the galaxy give Commanders the ideal place to plan their next move. Form alliances, procure services, and even find expert support in highly coveted Engineers. These public outposts also help you acquire and upgrade weapons and gear to perfect your playing style.


The Sphere of Combat

Experience intense first-person combat, kit out your character with an array of weapons and gear, and coordinate with teammates to master a multi-layered, deep, tactical environment where Commanders, SRVs and Starships converge.

From now until launch, we'll be sharing more information, developer diaries and trailers as we get ready to embark on this exciting new adventure!

I admire your enthusiasm in preparation for early 2021 :roflmao:

[Chaosphere]

Yes I'll admit I didn't pay enough attention to when it was releasing... Still, I fancied a jump back in to see what else was new.. it's been a long time.

[Sneakytiger]

maybe time to look at our elite dangerous community goals going forward?
fleet carriers being released soon.
we will keep you all updated with any new stuff like live streams etc.

If there was a way to club together and procure a Squadron owned fleet carrier, I would be interested in working towards that. I watched the carriers video after the Odyssey one yesterday and I'm pretty impressed with the work that has gone into this, but it's for sure a community thing.

no vr support for odyssey or base building at launch,so no vr support from the start, but hey i'm not surprised to be honest , it would be hard to go from cockpit vr to standing vr mode, and sc dosen't have vr mode so i think it will be fine.

I like how they aren't forcing it on you, so if you want to carry on as you are now, you don't have to do the on foot stuff...though why you wouldn't want to do the ground missions i have no idea

Furthermore, Horizons owners get a slick looking ship skin for all ships!
