patch 1.1 is good for me

Overall I llke the feeling of the new patch after 3 hours of playing. Nice improvements on graphics, specially inside stations, with less aliasing effect. The planet lights look inspiring. The holograms´glow is a sweet touch that adds depth to the cockpit view, sort of a 3d effect. Less stuttering when approaching planets (but still a lot when entering hyperspace). The color changes in the hud panels are welcome too, to give the eyes a rest of the dominat orange and helps with reading for the visually impaired too.

It´s also nice to be able to go back to the normal view from the system map without having to go through the galaxy map, which was quite an obvious inconvenience. I haven´t tested the long route planner in the galaxy map, so I cannot know if it works as it should.

I would suggest adding a keybind to make possible closing ANY of the panels that we open, so we don´t have to go through all of them whenever we want to close one (I´m using a 5 button joystick and voiceattack)

I really don´t know if this is due to the update of my nvidia gpu prior to playing, but the graphics look prettier, crispier. It felt great just flying around.

No complaint about the combat. I could kill an anaconda, a couple of pythons and multiple other targets in nav beacons and uss´s. My multicannons and beam lasers were as good as always.

So, thank you for your work and keep it coming

p.s. also like the new rank decals

Thank you for this. I'd like to second this sentiment as well. I'm thoroughly enjoying this patch. 1.1 has polished the game even further in my opinion. The collision bug, while unfortunate, will surely be fixed soon, so I am not worried. Why these forums have been turned into a whinge-fest I have no idea. I'm still loving the game, FD, well done!

I hadn't the NO-PAD-SHOWING-P problem... but.. you never know :)

New Nvidia Drivers out there, just for info ;-)

Happy so far with the 1.1 too... I went into exploring now :) :) Nice to see commander names, being the first who discovered planets and stars on my route ^^ But, a lot remained undiscovered so far :)

You may not have any problems, but other people have lots of bugs and glitches and are therefore entitled to a "whinge-fest" as you put it. I am sure if your game was broken you would be complaining.

i hope they keep the colision glitch listening to all these bad flyers cry over millions lost has been the highlight of this week so far
 
I'm enjoying it too though I'm out in the black with minimum contact with others so no collisions of doom. The community goals might pull me back in, I enjoyed them in the beta test.
 
How can I obtain TRANSACTIONS and contract description menu back in "before 1.1 patch" style?
"v1.1 parrot style" completely disappointing for me(

There are plenty of forums discussing/moaning/complaining about bugs from 1.1 so it would be nice if just one thread of positive experiences was allowed to exist....
 
Really satisfied with this 1.1, downloaded it in 15-20mins yesterday at launch, and no problem, i really like all change and tweaks without exceptions ! Great work FD !
 
I am really happy with 1.1 - used to stutter on approach to planets in frame shift, but is now smooth. Great seeing my name on planets I have discovered, and the game is looking even more polished.
Brilliant update, was happy with Elite before the update, but well happy now :)
 
Ive no real issues with 1.1. My trade routes were as before and equally as profitable. My clipper sounds better for me. I only notice supercruise sounds very quiet at times and maybe the music seems to fade in and out in an unusual way. However the clipper handled no differently. I flew to Earth in open and saw only few cmdrs. I noted the lights on earth and that was pretty cool. So overall I am satisfied with the update.

I never use shileds cells so I guess I dodged that nerf. I trade and do minimal combat thus I may not notice the changes made here.
 
Good for me too. So far....
Got the new Nvidia driver and had a fly around.
Sold some discovery data without issues.

Jaques says hi....
