I have the same issue. Constant crashes...
Also I noticed that starting ships Horizons Sidewinder and New Commander start with the same amount of credits 1000. Before, New Commander which doesn't have a SRV, started with 100.000 credits.
I was lucky to join while the New Commander starting credits gave out that much. While 100k may be over the top, 1k is a guarantee that many new players will just quit the game. The Sidie is a decent ship if you get it enough upgrades, without them the increased difficulty in missions, in NPC aggressiveness and overall game complexity will just make progression in the first few critical hours too hard for the starting player. This is supposed to be Elite Dangerous not Elite Impossible for new commanders with minimal skills, experience and equipment.
LOL well i guess, we, olds cmdrs from the game start are magicians, cause we have all started with 1000cr and a side, like everybody, and having now thousand of millions...
The game is enough casual now, don't make it more easy !!
I have the same issue. Constant crashes...
I'm seeing many folk talking about crashing. I've never suffered a crash in ED or EDH so one wonders what I am doing different?
Again and again i was shooted by invisible npc's.
Nothing on scanner, nothing around, only rockets spawn on radar before hit me.
WHAT is going on?!
Instancing is big issue now.
We cant play with friends, we cant play together becouse we DONT SEE EACH OTHER !?!?!? WHY ?!?!?!
WHEN THIS ISSUE WILL BE FIXED ????
Maybe it is Massive Online SINGLE Player Game ??!!

I know the feeling. Out of 8 people i know who bought Elite, only 1 is left to play with.
I found what looked to be the perfect exploration game ( if it looks to good to be true... ) so I got it and a HOTAS. Watched a lot of youtube video's, read the forums & the guides ( one Beginners Guide assumed you had 3 ship upgrades & 6 million in credits.. I was LOL but that seems to be what you need to start this game ) I did everything I could to get some where with this game. Followed all the Recommended Steps and STILL Nothing... I brought the Life Time Pass, it said you got a Free Cobra when Horizons comes out... So I thought ok I'll be able to start off with a better ship & maybe that will help !!! All I want to do is fly around and explore systems and discover things..... LOL STUPID ME !!!! the cobra is 750,000 credits for me it might as well be 750 Billion credits !!!!! I'm having a harder & harder time talking my self into playing this game more I'd hate to thing of all the $$$ I wasted on it too. But it seems like I have less and less of a choice..
I sometimes wish ED was more like SC where I could buy a better ship that was fitted out for exploring, doesn't have to be top of the line. Just enough to let me fly around and enjoy some exploring.. But that's not going to happen, I know that. So I may ended up in the group of people the quits & leaves this game, no matter how hard I've tried to play it... Very Sad & Depressing, I'd love to play this game sooooo much....
