The #1 golden rule is ''“Never fly without a rebuy”''. This means you should always have enough [[credits]] to cover your [[Ships|ship]]'s [[Galactic Insurance Company|insurance]] if it gets destroyed. The [[Pilots Federation]] covers most of the cost, but you must pay the rebuy fee (circa 5% of your total ship and module value).

There are 3 game modes: Solo (single player), Private Group (with friends and invites), and Open Play (with everyone). Newbies are recommended to play in Solo or Private Group, because it is safer. Open Play has the risks of random encounters with other players and PVP combat. The majority of players are in Solo or Private Groups. You can find other players in hot spots or systems with [[Community Goals|community goals]]. [[Squadrons]] are organized groups of players, similar to a guild. They are useful to socialize and do cooperative content like [[Operations]]. Many supports newbies and teaches them the ropes. The player base is very spread out across the [[galaxy]] and in 1 of 3 game modes. Thus it is rare to meet other players~~. If you want to stay on the lawful side of society then learn about [[Crime & Punishment]]~~.

There are over 45 flyable [[ships]]. These come in 3 sizes: small, medium, large. They can have specific roles like combat, exploration, trading or multi-purpose. These ships are highly customizable via [[outfitting]]. The ship's modules and performance can be [[Engineers|engineered]] past the standard limits. The engineers can upgrade the tier of a blueprint in exchange for raw, manufactured and encoded [[materials]]. The [[Capital Ship|capital ships]] cannot be piloted directly, instead the owner gives orders. Capital ships like the [[Drake-Class Carrier]] and [[Javelin-Class Carrier]] are end-game features due to the very expensive price and upkeep costs.

There are unsolved mysteries like [[Raxxla]], [[Soontill]], and the [[Formidine Rift]]. Certain aspects of the [[Guardian|Guardians]] and [[Thargoid|Thargoids]] remain unknown. There are secretive organizations like [[The Club]] and [[The Dark Wheel]].

Committing a crime (assault, murder, ramming ships) inside or near a [[station]] is met with lethal force by the surface and orbital [[Defence Turrets]] which destroy criminal ships in seconds. [[:Category:Security forces|Security forces]] like [[Advanced Tactical Response]] are active in all system types except anarchy. Security is the lowest in [[anarchy]] systems which have a higher chance of PVP.

The [[Elite Dangerous Music|music]] of ED is beautiful, but the limited playlist gets repetitive so you can play custom background music.
