do we have a date for the next Q&A?
QUESTIONS WANTED: Elite Dangerous 2.3 Q&A Livestreams
- Thread starter Alex Brentnall
- Start date
Question: With the controversy of ship design nerfing, hidden diminishing return formulas and the like trying to address engineered shield boost stacking and upsetting lots of players, especially veterans - Wouldn't it be easier to simply remove or re-design engineering mods for Shield Boosters instead?

At some point will we get an update on the future major development aspirational goals for Elite Dangerous please? (like for the kick-starter) . No details, timelines.... or no ETA and no guarantee!
Could we have an option to make the info and comms graphics at the top of the screen fade to dissappear please (all of it), when not in use. Would make ed even more pretty I think .
Is there an alien war or the horizon ;-) ... Will make great multicrew co-op.

Idea/question: sure you have thought of this. But for the future, it would be amazing to have parts of the ship perhaps failing (as they do now) but it would be possible to repair them with space legs during a multicrew. Would be epic, leaving the controls, fixing and racing back again.
And similar ideas for eva, but perhaps with more time.
Thats even before combative boarding of other ships or leaving the ship.

Gameplay, gameplay, gameplay. How can we improve gameplay to perpetuate excitement in the game?
Do we have anyone on staff that specifically works on gameplay as a priority, and not a secondary project?

No more Exterior Warp Shots!!! Camera suite removing ability's to film live on the fly, more like a screen shot suite! Help Please!
Hail Frontier and Commanders
So far my largest interest in 2.3 is the camera suite.
I guess Frontier just added a recent patch to the camera suite! It now removed the ability to capture video or scenes of a ship jumping into hyperspace from outside the cockpit! honestly this is another blow to the ability to film on the fly and its removing a chance at some really cool shots! I personally work the debug cam like no other, or i think so doing all kinds of cool shots. I use all of these things to live stream my videos,
I love the look of hyperspace from outside the cockpit!! it is going to making my video shooting sorta boring when i jump into my real cockpit ive built for my show! if frontier keeps removing things that we have had, It concerns me? I Have been making and learning how to shoot my show and I Believe this helped me make it cooler,But now we are losing things with every camera change.
This is something that is stripping the ability to stream on the fly, without having Cut shots that need edited later.
These things have been the bases of all my live streamed shows now for a year! Is there any way to not take this ability, when it goes to warp! I think it looks really cool as in my shots Below.
Right now you no longer get to see the hyper tunnel ramp up and it jumps really
hard to the cockpit interior and is Jerky an a lil less fun.
Here is one of my shows below I linked it to the scene at point 9:27 to see how I use this:
https://youtu.be/jnGWTiGH7YE?list=PL...ZtA9x9TW&t=565
Please, please, please, Frontier, Dont take this away I use it a lot in my shows! Yes i know im begging! im starting to get desperate.
Here is a link to another post I made, that I believe has more info on a study I made trying to get the new suite to work for on the fly filming without having to edit later. my post explains issues ideas and maybe a bug or two I found wile working on this.
please any word on it would be appreciated.

The new suite
Should possibly have a Center camera button - we should be able to Enter the cam suite, centered over the top of the ship like in old debug camera mode. this would make it easier to locate your ship for on the fly camera shots? Now it’s locked directly to the ship in full view, this dose not allow you to start filming, say a planet or nebula by itself before seeing your ship.
centered just above the ships cockpit gives us this choice.

Classic Debug Cam Vs. Camera suite
Please, will we get the option to select the classic debug cam or the new Camera Suite if we choose it from within the options menu?
This would be a great feature and would give us the ability to film movie style on on the fly reality TV style.

For switching cameras could we Have a selection to toggle a transition fader with a duration setting in milliseconds. This would be nice to have for when the cameras reset to their default start location so it will not snap super fast to that point but will graduate over time in milliseconds from one cam position to another? This would allow for a nicer transition between Cams. This would be Good for "on the fly" transition of shots.

Can Toggle Camera suite have an additional drop down SUB category of (pre-defined camera start locations to pick from) if this could be chosen. we could customize are own start location for the individual cameras.

Updated to here
Extended this existing question:
AlexBrentnall (Forums): Could Frontier (maybe after the Q&A livestream) publish a list of the things that are considered placeholders or desired areas for development? This could be done without spoiling anything or promising anything but would give players an idea of what areas are planned to be improved down the line and presumably allow us to both speculate and suggest. (Chrizhanna: Could FDev do a mini-Kickstarter aspirational goals type thing, no details no timelines)
They are highly unlikely to answer any story questions in these Q&As to be honest, I can add it if you like but I'd bet my Anaconda all you'll get is "no comment".
Added
I can add this if you like but the way that a question was answered on the last livestream made it sound like spacelegs and being able to walk around was a long long way off like season 4 or later so I don't think it's really useful asking it right now... Also these concept art pics exist so I assume yes it has been thought about:
http://i.imgur.com/9bExDR8.png
from this thread: https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/338116-Nice-touch-FD!
Still got yours from last time on there:
amadeus1171 (Forums): When are we going to have more gameplay elements to keep us more interested long term?
This was answered in the last livestream. No there is no limit. Multicrew will work galaxy wide from Beagle Point to Sol if you want it to.
So a few answers here: I think the old debug cam is gone and it's just the new camera suite now
Added the bit about camera being stored:
CMDR Elvintree (ForumsQ&A thread): Has any thought been given to a "store view" function so we can quickly swap between a specific camera and normal flying instead of re-setting the camera up each time we activate/deactivate?
and
CMDR Elvintree (ForumsQ&A thread): Recently the ability to use the external camera during hyperspace has been removed (both debug and suite), is there a reason for this? Can we expect the return of this functionality because hyperspace from the cockpit looks awesome?
300 questions now on the list...

There's alot of inconsistency on our records of barnacles locations and other sites.
Could we have something on the verbose netlog, so that when we scan a barnacle we get a set of coordinates (consistent for every CMDR).
This way the same barnacle won't have multiple coordinates as interpreted by multiple CMDRs.

During the beta for 2.2.03 it was mentioned that the big 3 would be getting an increase to their hull amount. Will they be receiving this in 2.3?

Question: Currently the Anaconda is the only ship in the game with advanced damage models. Can you say anything about why other ships don't have them and when they might get them?

Question for the PS4 secion:
"Will the Cobra Mk IV be available for PS4 players? And if so, how? Is there gonna be a pre-order scheme?"
"Will the Cobra Mk IV be available for PS4 players? And if so, how? Is there gonna be a pre-order scheme?"
There's a question and answer below, but Im not sure they're entirely related? Seems the answer is more to do with not allowing NPC crew to pilot the ship?
