Why 1.1 is awesome for me

* My this evening favorite is when jumping in near star, it washes out all other stars and lights...and only moving away from it slowly gives back rest of skybox. Just awesome detail which I think is a bug at first;

This isn't something new.
 
Route planning is great, filters in outfitting are nice, combat seems more fun at a nav buoy. Not seen city lights yet but planets look nicer. Comms work as well! more incidental sound effects as well, can't name anything specific but the game is lifted and more intense especially in combat.

I've noticed lots of wanted ships at nav buoy with only a 200 Cr bounty, I guess they hit someone else? Payouts seem more variable but more people to shoot so I'm happy :) I like the differences to the bounty vouchers so they're clearer. Friendly fire works too - enemies stay orange until you properly hit them and they go red.

I've seen two minor glitches which I'll bug report. Some of the tendrils on the sun don't move with the sun properly when you rotate. And the new bounty vouchers overlap sometimes when the faction name is long.

So basically it's lovely! Well done all, can't wait to see the game develop more! :)
 
Yes, this feature has been in since launch, though I have seen some posts with people thinking it was a bug. I've always noticed it and admired the attention to detail FD has used in this regard.

I just set off on my first expedition out of civilization, so that new route planner has me pretty jazzed.

yes the route planner is vastly improved as for me is the navigation around the galaxy map :)
 
I'm not miffed at all, I'm exploring and liking the clouds and route planner. The sounds have improved too, though I keep thinking there is something going wrong with my fsd because its making some weird sounds.

(Guessing) Zylark may have been talking about the posts from Explorers that have come home with many pages of Data to sell crashing to desktop after 1.1 ..... If your "out there" best to stay away from home till this issue is Hot fixed. Several players don't want to risk leaving the station (and losing their data ) , so their game is now unplayable... sigh

Decals applied already - forgot to include them in my list! Shame my combat rank is still embarrassingly low!
 
Galaxy map and the "easier" landing of the python. Love it. Also love the sound even more, haven't thought that was possible.
 
I'm loving it too. Also I'd like to add that for me the sounds feel great. Don't know why the complaints but on my headphones they sound loud and more aggressive now. The Asp I think sounds way better now in cockpit too. More gutsy less farty.
 
I also am having a lovely time with the new update. The glare from a sun when you pop into a new system is lovely and more realistic. Also for me the sounds are even better. I am not sure why some people are having so many problems with it but I suspect it is more to do with drivers/system hardware then any game bug. My reasoning for this....21 years working in IT support.
 
Hello there

I too am liking the patch.

I had one experience where a station didnt have an option to request docking but a quick relog sorted that.

For me, the patch is super.

For me the speed and range of the new 'satnav' is frankly a-maz-ing!

If this first step is indicative of the future, then I am double-dog-deffo into 'ED' for the long term... in fact I almost envy those who haven't played it yet, as they have such treasures yet to discover!
 
As I am mostly in exploring business, I really like galaxy map improvements: ~1000 LYs route plotting, which is also much faster, better search function (although it's still not perfect), star filtering, and of course "discovered by" tags are all much appreciated. Also, stars look a lot better on my low-end rig (protuberances are now quite spectacular) as well as planets (especially icy planets).
 
Not seen too much of it, really want to.
Alas, I had a power problem after the shield cell power increase, getting 401 in outfitting. The Alpha/Beta testing in me came out and I sold my Asp, bought a Cobra - still no outfitting. Raised a ticket, so I will get fixed soon (others are having this as well), not gonna play with unrefitted Cobra with 2 fixed pulse :lol

So keep on with the descriptions, no I am not jealous, no certainly not. And when did Incursion become hard (wave 8/9 for me) or have I gone backwards :lol.
