Patch Notes Update Beta - 1.6 and The Engineers (2.1) incoming
- Thread starter Zac Antonaci
- Start date
Maybe I missed it, but on the limpets, did they fix the collector limpets expiring after the first pick up? What a pain to have to buy twice the number of limpets to do the job. The prospector limpets don't die as soon as they're launched, but I go through twice the number of collector limpets than I should have to. I'm not talking about the time limit, either. After a set expires and you launch a new set, it picks up a bit and brings it back then expires before the time limit. No, i'm not leaving the limpets to go prospecting. I stay within the defined range. Most of the time, I don't even use the prospectors because if I don't get what I want, I just move on. Prospecting can be a waste of limpets. I usually dig first, then if I get what I want, I give it a prospect to maximize my return; then, launch the collectors.

You very likely already know this so apologies if I'm stating the obvious, but you are not targetting the item that you want to pick up are you? If you do that they will expire after picking up the one targetted item - this is as designed.
If you have nothing targetted, they should continue to collect. However, in some of the prior versions this was a bit buggy if there were lots of other ships (especially player ships) in the area, and they would often expire too soon.
What about favorites in the Galaxy Overview? What about the very low audio volume? What about the repetitive messages "Don't try to run...", "Don't panic!" and "I haven't written my ...". What about not mentioning the time that cargo has to be safegaurded (1h or 2h)? What about the low amount of mission types? What about adding more different stations as there are only 5 or 6 types in the whole galaxy?

On a ever so slightly more serious note. I just saw how bad the FDL is with heat now.
Basically, the FDL can't be used to do the following now:
Fuel scooping
Fighting near a star
Flying near a star
Silent running
Combat
Trading
Travelling
Exploration
Things the FDL can be used for:
Selfies
Mining?
Lol
My poor FDL
I hope they tweak the heat management alittle again before release, cos I think they nudged it too far. Not back to 2.0 levels, but a happy middle ground would be nice. On the plus side, loads of cool new stuff has been added, and I'm very excited.
Well done FD. Its almost a new game now!
Good work on the greebles, you can never have enough.

Theres no beta for us xbox players, so im guessing these might also be final release notes (just the xbox ones)

This trick won't work anymore
That's a huge changelog!
Awesome work - keep it up.
Now if you could load the missions in the backgroud during the landing procedure, especiqally as there's now far more of them. Went into missions the other day and it was about 10s to get into them (although they look nice!)

Yes. As the beta continues new versions will be released (BETA 2, BETA 3 etc), each with their own changelog. At the end it will all be merged into one 2.1 live changelog. This way you guys can already see some stuff being officially acknowledged of going in the final 2.1 patch.
This is FDev's desperate attempt to lure you away from german as your UI language.
Once you get rid of that KOMMANDANT you stop having nightmares about everything going black and white and flat irons growing out of your formica dashboard.
Still cannot download, would be nice if FD provided a patch to fix. I did file bug report for following error - "C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\Products\PUBLIC_TEST_SERVER_64\Win64\Items\Ships\Cutter|Cutter_Cockpit\data.ovl" (validation error) - hope it gets fixed soon.

Oh god really? That is awful. I would understand if they made it a little worse, but you make it sound as though it is now one of the worst in that regard.
