Is anyone now playing the game without issues on PC?

I last played a couple days ago. Gave up when my controls completely froze on me.

Has the situation improved at all?

I'm itching for my space fix, but the bugs... :(
 
I entered a conflict zone a couple of hours ago. It started running away from me. I flew towards it as fast as I could but it was too fast for me to catch. I got a warning message that I was leaving the conflict zone.

So yes I'm still getting issues.
 
Occasional screen freezes for about 6 seconds and my very first ED CTD’s in 4 years as I tried to enter a CZ tonight and exiting the FSS a couple of days ago.
I will note that ED has always performed flawlessly so these are 3.3 issues but I reckon they’ll be worked out.

I've had the game bail out because it lost contact with the server, oddly when I was on a planet engaging some skimmers, so not sure why it was checking in.

The UI has occassionally been unresponsive for a few seconds, usually when in the FSS.

I like a lot of the new features, but have noticed that this is the most unstable ED has ever been for me.
 
Yesterday the controls froze on me in super cruise but I was able to press the Windows key on the keyboard and it took me to my desktop screen with ED still running in the background. I could hear it. Then I clicked on the ED icon at the bottom and it all came back up correct with the controls working. Today no issues at all and I played about the same amount of time. I did use Clean Master, CCleaner and Eusing Registry Cleaner before starting today to get rid of any lingering stuff from 3.2 that wasn't being used. So I'd say at the very least if you haven't done it already, clean out your cache in what ever method you use. This is assuming you are on a PC of course.

Still getting the odd 15-30 second total game freeze-up. Luckily, it hasn't happened during combat and also the entire game freezes so I do not crash into anything when it happens.

I am spending most of my time on the ground, surface prospecting (night-vision is very nice), filling up on G5 (and other) raw materials until it gets sorted out and the BGS evolves some systems into more desirable states. The new surface scanner/mapper is awesome for finding geological sites that give up high-level materials and the FSS is great for finding G5 manufactured materials in HGE-USS.

Have had some issues with GeForce Experience overlays causing conflicts since about the second round of betas as well as in live 3.3. Easily resolved by turning the overlays off. A few disconnects as well, probably also due to our upgraded internet plan appearing to be a downgrade... (slow and stable to fast and unstable!). Yesterday I've had some odd soft freeze issues that eventually caused me to log off and do boring RL stuff instead.

Otherwise pretty smooth for a big update!

:D S

I had one CTD after completing a DSS and more than a couple of 15-20 secs freezing or lag.


Also encountered a couple of NPC ship blockades at outpost.

Occasional screen freeze and ctd. There's been no patch, so expect it to be like it was last time you played (though the servers have been more stable).

I guess no patch tomorrow as their doing the charity stream.
 
Still getting random 15 second freezes and I notice a message appear top left that says failure to connect to comms server every now and then.

Constantly losing my bindings... at 4 - 6 hours to rebuild...I'm fed up with the new mini-game: ELITE DANGEROUS BINDINGS (They're somewhere over the Horizon) TM.... when I've now only rebound a few crucial controls the freeze/locks get me down, so I log off knowing my few remaining bindings are going to go bye byes....sob

Save a copy then replace it, this happened to me today but lucky I have a copy of my bindings at the ready.
 
Just played again today and still no glitches. I bought a new ship, transfered my other ship to home port, did some module swapping in and out. When I quit the game that Comms screen on the lower right side said something about not connecting but it had no effect on my game play.

This is my current issues list :

- frequent : reliable CTD after >60min Exploration (FSS, System Maps) [old Memory Management/Caching/Garbage Collection issue likely caused by intensive and frequent Shader-generated Texture swapping, intensified by the new FSS]
- occasional : "Unable to connect to Communication Server" [new, doesn't affect Gameplay for all I can tell]
- occasional : 20sec Soft-Locks (freezes, self-recovering) after >60mins Gameplay [new]
- occasional : sudden partial or total loss of Input/Controls (typically after leaving a Planet Surface or Notable Stellar Phenomena into SuperCruise, rarely after arriving in a new System) ; requires Quit to Menu to recover [new]
- occasional : Text Inbox has notification number, despite no new Message visible [new]
- occasional : Mining, unable to free a fragment of a surface Deposit with Abrasion Laser despite direct hits [new]
- occasional : some Allied/Friendly Station Patrol NPCs can appear orange on Scanner in Player-populated instance [new for all I know]
- rare : unable to request docking (button does not work) [new]
- rare : Medium NPC attempting to depart from medium pad of an Outpost goes haywire right after lifting off the Pad, effectively permanently blocking it [new]
- varying : Matchmaking/Adjudication Server disconnects

Annoying but still kinda workable. Hoping for a few more bugfixes.

Yes, also getting the occasional loss of input/controls, throttle goes to zero. Game is clearly still running, and can press Esc to get to pause menu (where I can see underneath the throttle goes back up to max until I unpause again, this crashed me into a star near the core, fortunately damage was fairly low). Need to quit to menu to resolve.
Have had at least one temporary freeze, think it was in supercruise for mapping, but not 100%. Recovered after maybe half a minute.
External camera sometimes refuses to start, again, quit to main menu solves.
Twice had freezes deploying SRV, halfway deployed and no controls worked. *Think* that main menu also solved that, but can't remember for sure.

None of these are very frequent and haven't affect exploring or trading/courier so far, combat might be a different story.
