Patch Notes Update 2.4 The Return - Update 2.4.02 - Downtime scheduled

[Malcolm-460]

Many thanks for the hard work

Thanks Ed and the Team for the fixes. The game is massive and growing each season so bugs are inevitable. Cheers!

Hi,

Something is happening, steam updated something, when I started the launcher...

 

[CobraDriver]

Hi everyone,

The Elite Dangerous galaxy servers will be down for PC for approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Hey Frontier, and thanks for shutting down the server on a public holiday in Germany - one of the few days I have the chance to put some time in playing the game.

 

[Duckfat]

Oh good, i needed some salt on my egg sandwich. Thanks community!

Just so you know, we pee in our salt.

 

[Vardaugas]

Now to wait for steam to catch up with reality...

 

[Anubite]

I'm expecting to open the game and see 2 missions again, only to feel tempted to mission cycle. Let's see.

 

[Bloodkil]

Are people actually being salty about obviously broken and exploited missions being fixed?

Hey Frontier, and thanks for shutting down the server on a public holiday in Germany - one of the few days I have the chance to put some time in playing the game.

I second that, but...

<ahem>

Seriously, all the folks constantly providing their "I am the master of the universe as I live from your salt" stance for all to see: No one believes you. A lack of empathy and ridiculing other people's frustration and pain says way more about your mental state than you think.

 

[Daish]

know NMS has come some ways since release but... really?

I

yeah really at least exploring is fun in NMS, Elite's airless rocky moons are somewhat well empty, much like the soon to be Passenger mission payouts

 

[Captain Squareyez]

Yeah, the environment in ED and the ability to explore it is much better. That, and the VR experience is amazing. There are some things ED could learn from STO, though. Like save-able ship loadouts that can be installed with one click, and material banks.

Maybe FD just saw you post this and thought "mmmmm, this guys is onto something"?
They were great ideas from Cryptic, but we had to wait a few yrs before they released it for us

 

[TracerTom]

Launcher sais "ServerStatus ok" (after first displaying "update")
but ingame tells still "client to old"

Edit: now it gives me the option to update. So... never mind.

 

[Whitehair]

Yes they are. Hahahaha

 

[Prasinus]

I had to go to Options / validate game files for it to start upgrading

 

[ChromaLemon]

Also, are we just gonna keep letting NPCs endlessly blockade landing pads? It's getting really annoying requesting docking permission over and over again to find the one pad that isn't blocked...

It is literally bad enough that I self-destruct if its the last station I docked at.

 

[Wasp0]

ForumDads win. No fun. No money. Back to grind.

Do you not have Children yourself? if yes then you should know Dad's always win against the little children who cry a lot when their toys are taken away.

 

[EvE4evah]

Are people actually being salty about obviously broken and exploited missions being fixed?

Yes. Because those lessened the grind. If a game has you having fun 5% of the time and the other 95% is grinding in order to be able to get back to the fun, don't you think something is wrong with game design?

 

[mLine]

Steam update available

 

[bubbabenali]

- Killed off Tourism in a Captial Tourism System
- Thargoid weapons are now completely immune to chaff (or any other form of weapon confusion)

Thanks for getting priorities straight FD.
But when will you stop NPCs from ramming us like they are drunk AND blind?

 

[EvE4evah]

Do you not have Children yourself? if yes then you should know Dad's always win against the little children who cry a lot when their toys are taken away.

Kisses, Wasp0

 

[Bloodkil]

Yes they are. Hahahaha

People should've expected it imo.

Ah well, CG grind.
