Elite Dangerous | Server Maintenance 5 December 2024

If i go Manage, validate files, an update has started. I don't know if this is true for everyone or whether the normal update routine will or has occurred. Or even if its the right update!

It could be some damaged or missing files, I didn't have an update myself when I started after the maintenance.
 
F->Dev. Clearly doesn't care about the odyssey bartender FC transfer bug. Not a peep. You can't even raid settlements. We paid for Odyssey and now they break it. Why even play the game??? Yery SUS!!!
They have only broken some of Odyssey and while it is no comfort to those whose gameplay revolves around raiding settlements and trading at the bar other players are only really impacted by those bugs when on the forums.

I find nothing sus about fixing a bug taking longer than us noticing one.

FDev are renowned for not telling us more than they have to.
 
returning as star citizen got a wipe coming. so funny and sad at the same time its the still very same incapable Fdev...can't even manage a simple update/maintenance properly.

server status good, but all 4 of us nobody cant connect or even trigger an update, if any. even clicking check for update can't trigger it.
only clicking validate seems prompt an update coming with 0.00Mb/s download speed. and again, all 4 of us cannot close the launcher with this 0.00mb/s udpate running, only a popup saying quiting now will need to install the game later. then still wont let you quit.

Fdev got 10 years of time and still fail at such simple minor task....seriously?

There is no update today, only server maintenance

thanks for the correction.

but then its even worse, validating files in frontier launcher should not trigger a fake update at all when there is none, nor it should stuck at 0.00mb.

so now both my game can't run and the validate file can't run...

Ok, finally back in the game, had to skip the tutorial but fortunately I was brought safely back to my carrier with all my ships & credits intact (what a relief 😅). Even my keyboard shortcuts seem to be intact!

Looks like I'm going to have a wonderful experience today, flying around the Sol neighborhood, watching people frantically fight the bugs, and of course enjoying the offbeat nostalgia of witnessing future history in the making, from a front row seat in a familiar setting. And sure, maybe pop a scout here and a cyclops there.

Good times for Yule tides! 🤶
Thanks, FDev! 💝

At least FDev released a game after their kickstarter...
Another wipe from the company that have failed to reach something even approaching a releasable game after 10 years?

I wonder if CIG will give me more useless credits again with this wipe? Not that I'd been able to play after the last update or 3, as I really cannot be bothered redoing my HOTAS mappings again...
 
I am totally expecting [...] the server behaviour changes in some way with zero announcement about it, and that's a good thing, and a change to the server side could affect the collector limpet bug and the FC transaction bugs, without code fixes, just bringing some things back into timeout windows, because they really do look like some sort of roundtrip behaviour oddity much like hyperjump.

Well spin my nipple nuts and engage smug mode, Fleet Carrier transfers are fixed. Thread for that is linked here.

Can someone try limpets? (Link to thread discussing collector limpets getting stuck)
