It absolutely is!!! We hope you try it!!

​@@abelireviews is this event still happening? Xd I'm a bit late hopefully my fleet carrier gets up there in time!

@lucasmorley1939 The event's community-driven staff decided to take December off to spend time with their families. However, they are likely to be back in action in January 2024. The Booze Cruise is always a bit of a bet or gamble as to whether it will happen. This unpredictability is part of what makes the event so exciting! To stay informed and up-to-date, I highly recommend joining the Pilots Trading Network's Discord channel and checking out their website for the latest details. The community around this event is incredibly kind and welcoming, making it an enjoyable and engaging experience for everyone involved. It's a great way to connect with fellow players and immerse yourself in the Elite Dangerous universe. Looking forward to hopefully seeing you in the next Booze Cruise!

@@abelireviews ah ok thanks!

@lucasmorley1939 anytime 😀

Absolutely! That system sure knows how to celebrate.

If I lived in Space Norrbotten I'd be drinking like mad too.

@maxomai 😂

That’s a really cool bit of trivia!

You are the type of person who should look for Raxxla, you really need to see connections like that to get there.

@CmdrGamagosk Thank you for the suggestion. We’ve never heard of Raxxla; we just watched a video about it and now are super curious to learn more.

Wow! That’s incredible-both the amount of credits and the time. You’re proof of just how fun and engaging Elite Dangerous can be. Wishing you all the best with your adventures, and hopefully, the video provided an excellent background radio for your travels.

We didn’t know it either. It’s a pretty incredible game. It seems like there is always something new and exciting to discover. If you have any additional questions feel free to reach out anytime. 😀

Thank you for the clarification. Others have expressed it as well. We received so many recommendations that we decided to check out The Expanse and have been enjoying it. We are now in the last season.

As long as you’re having fun, your earnings don’t matter. Also, I am super jealous of your Corvette 😀

@@abelireviews I almost jumped through the roof with excitement when I unlocked it lmao

That is the only appropriate reaction!

Glad to hear you are enjoying yourself. It’s a great game. Let us know if you have any questions. Also the Steam Deck is a fantastic device!!

That’s legit!! How did you get your own surface complex?

@@abelireviews It's not my own. Nakamura Entertainment Complex is a Blood Brothers from Alrai run facility. I'm allied with them, thus get choice missions that pay big dividends.

@Tamburello_1994 ahh that makes sense!

@@Tamburello_1994 You're gonna make me launch for the first time in years. I needed something to help me enjoy the game more.

@sigmasquadleader happy to help 😀 Hope you get out there and enjoy the stars once again 🚀🚀🚀

Glad to hear you found our video useful and thank you for the kind words.

It’s wild to think in a span of nearly 6 months you burned through almost 4 billion credits just sitting.

Mining is still very profitable and relaxing.

We’ve been talking about making a more detailed mining video. We just haven’t gotten around to it yet. It’s good to hear you’re still enjoying it.

@@abelireviews A mining video would be great

@delc82 have you completed the mining tutorial? If not this might help: How to complete the Mining Tutorial - Elite Dangerous kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hK6XdqSYsbvYZ2Q.html

Thanks for the recommendation. We might need to get into engineering before we attempt that! Appreciate the comment.

@@abelireviews Engineering helps, but it's not absolutely necessary. I made my first billion from fighting at ground ports under attack. For half an hour of fighting I would fly away with roughly 300 million in combat bonds. It works if you play in Open, and if there are competent other players fighting in the same instance. You only need to do some damage to a Thargoid ship, and you will get the bounty even if someone else destroys it later. Just tickle a cyclops with your lasers a bit, or maybe your AX MC, and run away before it gets mad at you. I would sometimes fight a Hydra for a while, then fly back to the station for repairs, and get the 50 million bounty notification while still docked. I think you also get some bonus for sticking around to the end of the round, like 40 mil or something (need to verify that somewhere). You don't even have to find a team for this to work, as long as the other players can bring down interceptors, so you don't have to do everything solo. You can also contribute by dealing with scouts, as long as you remember to go and give a quick little tag to that Hydra that's being bombarded by all those ModShard Anacondas. What's most important, fighting Thargoids alongside other, live players is really, really fun! :)

Thank you 😀 We hope you found the video helpful.

That awesome! Do you participate in the event often?

It’s a fantastic event and we hope you get a chance to participate in the future. Just word of warning, the primary space station only supports small and medium sized ships. Best of luck :)

That’s incredible! It will be fun to check it out in August.

@abelireviews That is wild. Especially considering the best trade routes currently are around 100M per HOUR. Yeah, the booze cruise is pretty good. Can you skirt the landing pad issue by playing in solo?

@Powerhauz correct. We highly recommend playing in solo during the event.

That’s great. Any tips you want to share with new players?

The event itself happens almost every month, but it’s random. The community organization known as the Pilot Trade Network, which provides logistics and coordination, has decided to take a break. So, anyone wanting to participate must wait until they decide to offer rides up again or get there through another organization.

You bet. Our channel has around 70 “how-to” videos covering many topics on Elite Dangerous. If you have any additional questions, feel free to reach out.

@@abelireviews ok will do I noticed the pc and console galaxy maps are different also idk why the ui text is really grainy on pc I’m not super familiar with what settings do what so I’ll probably have to look that up

@PyraPanda we ran into grainy text on PC as well. It’s easy to fix. Most likely the default resolution is set super low. Just increase the games display resolution and you will be good to go.

@@abelireviews got it fixed now I’m attempting to figure out engineering I read somewhere finding the different parts can take up your at least a week I hope not that’s insane

@PyraPanda glad to hear you solved the pixelation issue. In our opinion, engineering is a rather large investment of time. It’s a grind. We wish you the best of luck.

That’s an incredible amount of money per haul. How long does it take to fill the cargo hold?

@@abelireviews its fast , i didn't mine it just search and wait for high sell price, 3-4 times per week some fleet carrier come to bubble for refills

Hey! Thanks for reaching out. What sort of activities do you enjoy doing in Elite Dangerous? We’ve found it’s best to focus on things you enjoy that way making money doesn’t feel like a chore.

@@abelireviews since its my first time i do like hunting bounty or is there a way by doing trading also?

You can do just about anything you would like; switching between combat and trading isn’t a problem. Out of curiosity, have you completed any of the in-game tutorials? Also, if you haven’t watched it, we put together an introductory video that provides an overview of the many things you can do. Here is the link: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/o7qIosKC1N-1gok.html

@@abelireviews only the basic tutorials but not how to trade, cool thx for the guide

No problem. Elite Dangerous can be confusing game. Reach out if you have any additional questions or don’t find what you are looking for.

Thank you!!! That’s so kind of you. We really appreciate it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

Thank you 😊. It was a fun video to make. The Expansion sounds like a great series. We just haven’t given it a chance yet. We’ve also been recommended Star Trek: Deep Space 9. Which do you recommend watching first?

@@abelireviews Glad to see you keep a good sense of humor with the reviews. That's rare these days. Honestly, depends on what kind of shows you like. DS9 starts REALLY slow, but picks up in later seasons. Expanse starts off great, but slows down in the later seasons. The First few seasons are ADDICTIVE though.

@fiberjunkies appreciate you saying that and thanks for offering your opinion on the two shows. We might have to try the first episode from both and see which one pulls us in. Although it sounds like The Expanse has a better beginning.

The event only takes place one time per month, it only lasts 48 hours, and there is also a small percentage each month that won’t happen.

@@abelireviews ok thanks for information.

@katjaczajkov8694 anytime 😀

Here is the URL to their website with all their social links: pilotstradenetwork.com/

Hey, thanks for stopping by. The Type-6 Transporter only requires a medium landing pad, which means it will work and can participate in the event. It’s only ships that require large landing pads that cannot park at the station.

Thanks for reaching out. This video covers how to get back after the event ends: Participate in the Booze Cruise & Make Millions - Part 4 Getting Home - Elite Dangerous kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nc9_ksJlp72VcYk.html

Thank you for the feedback. We will check it out!

Elite Dangerous supports VR and the full game has already released. The developers have even released DLC. Is it possible you are confusing Elite Dangerous with Star Citizen?

No sir VR is not in the on foot part of ED. till it is no more money for anything, EVER. @@abelireviews

No sir Ody does not have VR in the on foot stuff. No more money till they do,

@christophercox4437 got it. I wouldn’t plan on them adding that functionality. But who knows what the future brings. Cheers!

The event itself is built into the game and happens almost every month. The community organization known as the Pilot Trade Network, which provides logistics and coordination, has decided to take a break. You can learn more about them here: pilotstradenetwork.com/booze-cruise/

That’s very true, and they do love to say that. They say that because nobody can tell when the event will happen. It’s essentially a bet. But it typically happens each month. Although I believe the PTN event organizers will be taking the month of December off to spend time with their friends and family.

@abelireviews I know I had been with ptn for just over a year and a half. I was even one(well 8)of the PTN tagged carriers

@Beaker588 that’s awesome, thank you for everything you do!

@@abelireviews Well for what I did I am no longer with PTN for reasons I wish not to discuss.

The player group that helps organize travel and distribution is taking a break. But the event at Rackham’s Peak is part of the game lore and always has a chance of happening.

We’ve found the event to be a delightful community event that requires minimal effort. Hunting Thargoid scouting vessels isn’t something we’ve tried yet. We will add it to our list of things to look into. Thanks for taking the time to share your perspective. Elite Dangerous certainly provides many opportunities.

Always!

Thanks for sharing your perspective. We looked at it similar to timing a sporting event. You don’t start the timer when the participants leave the locker room. Either way, we appreciate you taking the time to provide engagement with our channel.

Its our understanding this event is unavailable on console versions of Elite Dangerous.

The vast majority of PTN people play on the Odyssey version of the game. The console version stopped with the previous expansion, Horizons. When Frontier (the game maker) decided not to continue supporting console access, a large group of players decided to park fleet carriers in specific locations to block access in protest. IF you can get a fleet carrier in to the system, it does work in Horizons. But you probably won’t see a PTN supported run.

Thank you for the detailed response 😀

When we first learned about it the event, we thought it was too good to be true as well. 😃

Everything the Pilot Trade Network posts is public. The exact path the Booze Snooze takes is nearly identical every time. That said, travel from Gail to the HIP 58832 and back should not be shared while the Booze Snooze is in flight. Therefore, none of our videos are streamed live, and everything is posted after the Booze Snooze arrives at its final destination. Thanks for stopping by and for the engagement.
