It has "been" worked on ever since 3.3 and yet here we all are still waiting.......

Congrats commanders. We all participated in the Great Crash of Elite

 

[Camisade]

Hire more hamsters! Hook up more exercise wheels!

Classic. Just borrowed the Rift from my brother. My daughter sleeps, the wife is on a business trip, got cold beer.

 

[Chronverge]

[Kekkonshiki]

I can borrow you a hamster.

PS
If you prefer human sacrifices I could always send you T.j. Not sure if he is blond / a virgin though.

 

[Wobblin-Gobblin]

Maybe I should head back and try the American launch....

For all those DW2 pilots stuck in Witchspace

Hello Witchspace my old friend
I've come to fly through you again
While other CMDRs are sweeping
50 light years maybe more leaping
And the destination that was programmed in my Frame
Still remains
Within the sound of Witchspace

By CMDRs Simon And Garfunkel

C'mon, Frontier, you've known for weeks what would happen tonight. Very poor! [mad]

 

[Neutronium]

OK I do get the DW2 players went to disco upon their synchronized jumps - that was more or less to be expected. What I don't get is why solo players are affected?????? Are we all on the same instance? C'mon Frontier....

 

[Vasco Sapien]

So that explains it...

Doh!

[Maro-Val]

Why do we first wait for this to happen on the biggest expedition in order to do something? Jesus Christ..

 

[sollisb]

Launchers says Servers are available now, but after login, says 'Can't connect'..

 

[erto]

lol. no wonder my tickets won't load. they've a profanity filter running

so let me rephrase my last "more frontier lies"

get it together, please. you are killing your company. Gain some support and fill us in and why the networking is so horrible.

 

[Valorin]

RIP server.
To be fair, I don't think that kind of server strain is easy to handle.
Good luck with the fxing! And thanks for working on a Sunday.

 

[Dizzy B High]

Now i didn't see that coming...

If you search for elite dangerous on twitch now, all the stream thumbnails show the Menu Screen

Turbulence? Fasten seat belts? Are we going down?

 

[Chri5topher]

Despite the launcher now saying service status OK, you can't proceed past the main menu, it is saying "waiting for ID allocation".
