Was good this morning, but this evening's been terrible, multiple disconnects, including just sitting at a station - all in solo 'cause trying to join Mobius just sat on the loading screen before not connecting, also had a hard lock where I had to kill the process, finally given up for now.
Yep. The fact it happens in Solo too makes having Solo almost pointless.
I remember when offline was cancelled and David Braben was saying you could play solo on a 3g phone connection, compare that to white knights on here saying
open forwarding ports, UDP, 'not Frontiers fault you have <fecal> connections'.
...
This release should never have seen the light of day. End of.
And what makes it worse is the complete lack of response from Frontier Developments.
There were a few beta testers surprised that it came out, saying it was nowhere near ready for primetime.
On a more positive note, I love the instant transition to glide now, checked out about five planets this morning, plus the peripheral textures missing from landable planets does appear to be fixed (VR), and on two planet missions I found Conductive Components and Ceramics which (I think), is a first. Lining up with stations whilst in supercruise is also awesome, finally some gameplay to go with my spacesim.
