Patch Notes Update Powerplay Update 1.3.04 Incoming

[captain donumdei]

All right thank you guy !

Any news at all on the issue of minor faction reputation decay? Every day this is not addressed means more and more of our efforts being undone, and we have not even a confirmation whether this is being investigated at all:

Is there an update to "preparing shaders" each time we run ED with some GPU's?

 

[Rubbernuke]

Good job FDev.


...but why all the "have you fixed <my personal bugbear​>" posts? Read the changelog! That is what its for...

Because it's like screaming into the wind to get any feedback on gamebreaking bugs, that's why.

Patch caught me in game for the first time How long does it usually take until it's all done?

No trolling, but missleading as usual with frontier statements ...

The server is down...meaning the server is being updated.

The patch (i.e., for the client on your machine) isn't due out until later. How is this misleading?

- Fixed rank benefits for increased bounty and bond values

Will we get those bonuses retroactively?

 

[Adam Woods]

d
So this means basically, how higher rank you are the more money you get for bounty and bonds?
or am i wrong?

This is a Power rating benefit (only certain Powers have this benefit). My mistake, typed rank instead of rating. Apologies.

Thanks,
Adam

In the UK the clocks go forward 1 hour at 1am on the last Sunday in March, and back 1 hour at 2am on the last Sunday in October.

The period when the clocks are 1 hour ahead is called British Summer Time (BST). There's more daylight in the evenings and less in the mornings (sometimes called Daylight Saving Time).

When the clocks go back, the UK is on Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

The time you posted your comment was infact 10:37 am GMT

 

[Soopyyy]

Very interested to see how the RES sites go now!

 

[Hydrino]

Can't connect to server, getting unknown error. But server status on Community page shows OK.

 

[CMDR Funky Munky]

Yeah i'm getting the same thing

Because the time given also includes the line "Server change log:".

Greetings from the UK! You are completely mistaken. The servers went down at 10:30 BST, which is 9:30 GMT. I know this because I have a clock.

Ingame message since 10:00 (BST)
The servers are has gone down 10:30 (BST). OP Posting was 10:15 (BST)

Better announce the downtime time point! And then it is done when it is done.
But if you would play it is missleading at least from 10:15 (BST) until you recognize servers are down now!

Another update:

Mission fixes:
- Mining missions now request Platinum not Palladium.
- Variant massacre missions changed to use the same system generation as the main template.
- Alternate Assassination missions no longer have timelimits of 0h 0m.
- Various text fixes
- 'Standard' and Rank Massacre missions will no longer give war/military targets.
- Rank missions should no longer give other faction rank as reward.
- Altruism missions now check for total cargo space, not current free space. This allows players to take missions when carrying cargo in their bay as long as the mission requirement doesn't exceed their total cargo capacity.

(added to OP)

Thanks,
Adam

Good job frontier, keep up the good work and constant updates. As long as you do that the game will continue to grow.

 

[Zphinx]

The Expansion sites (when doing PowderPlay (yes I know the typo is intentional) the zones are still mostly hemorrhoids (Mostly Harmless).

In addition, no promotion missions once pledged. I am a Baron for a month month now. I have done since Powderplay came out several missions and what not, and nothing.

Did they indead tweak the Ship Integrity Again to break it (I hope now, if not I will poison someones fish and chips).

Thanks for the update, and I hope to hear back from you in regards fo the Rank missions etc.

For the emperor....

This is shaping up to be a rather robust patch. I honestly wasn't at all expecting a Tuesday morning patch, especially with all the E3 hype.

I have to say, Kudos. And thank you.
