I am ashamed, I forgot that. + rep for making me a small tad less grumpy, yes that is indeed great. I vehemently hate this mechanic, beyond belief.
Its like when you get the very first missions from a new system, you know for certain, that these delivery missions almost all will be to forsaken, back ward outpost in the middle of nowhere, 270 000 Ls's out, still playing Beach Boy's on the radio and the chick's all got a loaf of bread in the hair.

Which is why I raced to obtain the cutter so I no longer had to stomach the hideous non optional mission mechanics of this crew to help aid factions in influence and state, assuming this would move fwd and get even worse. Glad to hear that has changed, at least for now--as FD has shown time and time again they love to revert to things they decided wasn't working or wanted ie the "low wake -follow me and we can talk "wrinkle' " currently in op. in assassinations. So as much as this non optional mission change thing seems to have ended, that's yet to be seen.

My predictions:
2.3 release - Tues 11 April (based on comment by Howard, we'll have one more update)
PS4 release - 13 June (first day of E3, though I don't believe FD have confirmed they are going)

Here's a little something I put together:

You may want to add Mac and Xbox Release Dates.


Just an emotion-free observation from my side:

It may be a coincidence but I think that something significant happened in summer 2015 leading to all those delays with the upcoming patches. At least it looks like they didn´t add too many ressources to the project from my point of view.

And when I start to compare the credits between Planet Coaster and Elite I see many many names appearing on both sides.

(Don´t get me wrong, I like Planet Coaster and have around 200 hours in it and I am still enjoying it).

My personal opinion on this:
I assume that Elite didn´t hit the numbers they initially expected and they had to shift ressources between the projects. And we are running into the same dilemma right now with their magical new Hollywood-Project. All those fixing and tweaking-minor-patches were nothing than a time-flaying thing to calm down the community. The result is actually seen on reddit or on youtube where they start personal attacks against FD-staff. And blowing into the same horn is the delay of an announcement regarding "Season 3" (or whatever idea they have to bring up new content), and of course the delays on 2.3 and 2.4, which should be live since december (and before anyone jumps in: Yes, Season 2 was sold and advertised as: 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 2.4 in 2016 - no excuses here).

What we basically need is an HONEST reply by FD-staff. No marketing, no other loyal-positive stuff - HONEST answers and HONEST plans.

Then release it anyway for those who dont have that problem, while they work on fixes for those who do? Dont see any reason why everyone must be blocked from MC just because some have an issue with it...

Yeah, the third game is definitively going to slow things down, like Planet Coaster did even if they deny that.
Let's just hope that this third game is something similar to the outsider, so the work on that could be used for our space legs! :p

With no evidence at all beyond history, I'm guessing mid to late April :)


I'm certainly ready for it to drop

Yeh i hope not that long. I have a holiday in two weeks for a week and i was hoping to enjoy the 2.3 features with beer and junk food.

I just hope the release will be sooner than soon...

I have gotten so many connection problems with the ordinary game it is on the verge of being unplayable, like that for almost a month now...
Everything tried, massive interaction with support, no solution, (but very helpful and responsive :) )
ED is the only thing on my 15 devices not working properly. Fiber connection.
The Beta oth, is rock stable , blazingly fast, with no hiccups whatsoever, go figure...
So yes soon is to late for me, want now, yesterday in fact.

Cheers Cmdr's

maybe brett or ed can swing by and at least rule out that it will be this week, that still doesnt give us an exact date, but might settle the erm hype down a touch

I can guarantee it won't be within the next 10 days. After tonight I have 9 days off work. There's no way on this Earth, or any other ELW, that I'm lucky enough for it to be released while I'm on leave lol

well they are stickers for dates as far as end dates, and Q1 was the original call, not that it matters but it is stable enough to deploy, heck it even runs better for the most part than 2.2 as it stands

You are having a laugh. They never hit the first date they set, it always moves back; as of right now no first date has been set.

First dates, always a problem for FD.
