This June, our universe will change. Forever.

After watching the beta streams and reading the beta forums (another beta update was released today with some big changes), its starting to sink in that the game we love is going to change, in so many ways, for the better.

2.1 will be a big change for PC players, but for us on XB1, we also have the 2.0 whole planet-landing stuff coming over the Horizon. Planetary hangers. Mineral collecting. SRVs. Bring it!

My XB1 probably thinks I play this game too much now, HAHAHA, it has no idea what's begun here!

The game will change, but if you're actually keeping up with the beta, it's not all for the better. In fact there are many changes that hurt us and will force us to change how we completely play the game. Yes there are a lot of great things but there are still a lot of bad. the Dev's have changed a lot of stuff since beta but not all of it will be changed.

Keep in mind the update currently in beta is not horizons for us. We may not get Horizons until later in June. This update is separate from Horizons.

But when we do get horizons, our version is going to be paired with PC, right?

I am getting pretty excited about it though, really looking forward to zipping over a planet

So pessimistic. It's called a "Beta" for a reason. Nothing is final and if there's enough of an outcry over something, it's likely to be fixed.

MoM even said the AI will be tweaked to run away less.

I wouldn't say it is entirely pessimistic, it is a realistic look at what is happening. I share the perspective of Trent. Ships that cruise at 600m/S and boost at 800m/s, or have in the neighborhood of 9000mj shielding could very well change the core dynamic of the game.

If you want to call this pessimistic, call the thread overly optimistic. We haven't had the pleasure of experiencing these updates or expansion. We have no real way of knowing other than watching others or playing on PC. We as the Xbox community just get what we get. If FD was concerned about our input and experience Xbox would be invited to do Beta testing as well. We aren't. We just get what we get. Could be good, could be bad, could be somewhere between. We just won't know until it is here and we can experience it... Which, as far as major changes to mecahnics of the game is too late.

I'm hopeful it is good, but not everything new is...

Correct. They've said repeatedly that the plan is to release 1.6 and 2.1 together on Xbone, and from that point forward PC and console should remain on par with each other.

Wish I could remember where I read/saw it, but I thought someone from FD said we'd get the 1.6 update before we'll be able to purchase Horizons (2.1). Nonetheless, they won't be far apart even if we get them separate. Much an-ti-ci-pa-tion! [wacky]

Can't wait. I've even painted my Cobra Mk IV to match the colour of the glorious Millennium Falcon.
