Has anyone encountered any audio issues? I start the beta, and I get sped up audio and it cuts in and out and crackles. Very game breaking obviously, I tried it on the normal E:D 64bit, but it was normal.

mine still does that and these FD people havent mentioned anything bout it in like 3 days .... stop sleeping on the job and give us some indication of when us beta testers can well ya know actually test things for christs sake
 
yup me too. i'm usually pretty laid back about these things but an acknowledgement that there is an issue and we are looking into it might be nice...
 
Get used to it - we are all willing to test it (desperately) - i mean it's not like we haven't paid for this anyway... but FD do seem to pee all over themselves when it comes to the public beta process and communication. When they launch the beta test I'd prefer to see a specific section of the frontier site dedicated to it - so that issues surrounding the beta don't get lost in the forums AND it also means that people can be informed as to how things are progressing without us bombarding FD on the forums.

I'm not thinking of a sub forum - more a "ticketing" system so "Reported issues" can be quickly sifted through and FD can advise accordingly. Even if it's just to say - "no news yet, but if more people can advise if they are experiencing this then we can get a feel for the scale of it" - ie. a "voting" type system.

I dunno, just thinking out loud really but to be honest FD if your Dev model for ED is going to carry on over its projected (hopefully) 10 year lifespan, with this "beta" concept/process then I really think you need to rethink how you are getting the feedback - this is a two way process is it not?. You ask us to test it - we test. It goes wrong, we say what happened, but trying to find out if others have had this problem or what they have done to resolve it is a job in itself, it should be segregated from the main support area I think, and run in a different way.

If its a resource issue at FD i've the time, and cash to setup a website right now to do this - just a nod from FD is all I need...

- Fix an error with settlement on Dahan 3 a

I don't get this at all. There have been many other similar bugs during the development of ED as well.
If PG is used to generate the settlements then ALL of the settlements should have the same bug because
they are using the same algorithm. Unless, of course, they are not using PG at all in this particular case.

thats all you will ever get and it is good enough comparing with the rest of the games that ever existed and have a beta every 3-4 months.

Have you reported a ticket on the FD support site and raised a bug report on the 2.2 bug forum?

From what I've seen, it seems like most players are able to get into the beta but there are a few reporting that they are unable to log in.

Well I can log in and all that, but I have serious audio issues, from first starting up and so forth, I was hoping someone on the forums could possibly provide an answer before posting a bug report.

At the beginning of the beta, they are certainly very requested

:)
 
FWIW, I fixed being stuck on the Spinning Ship -> CDT bug. It only works if planetside, (in my case the save was in an SRV) Just force the game to load in orbit: Instead of loading the Guardians beta, select Passengers beta (ie, without planet access).
The loader will say something like "Oh dear, it seems you don't have planet access, relaunch in orbit?"
Press the "Ooh, yes please button"
Worked for me. :)
 
When is 2.2 release pinned for ? Im guessing there will be a beta 4?

Flimley

Beta 4 and probably several others, release is scheduled (aimed) for mid-october and i hope they take as much time as possible (which can't ever be as much as needed)

I have just read a bug report about concordant sequence not working when used on the SLF. There was a reference from QA to say that the issue is believed to be fixed in Beta 5, so definitely more beta iterations incoming after beta 4.

It's more likely that FD have just given up on even numbers for this Beta :p

OK, so I just started the beta and for some reason, I'm in a ship I haven't had in a couple weeks. It seems that everything I have worked at over this time is gone. Rank, Ship, Credits. What in the world is going on?
Thanks
