Patch Notes September Update - Patch 1

[Magicbean]

Thanks for the patch. I still can't load the game using VPN, though. Seems fine when I turn off the VPN.

Mission Board and Passengers Lounge are still broken, on PS4. Worldwide.

Guys, when do you think of solving this very serious problem that is KILLing all our BGS?

There is no PS4 development team. There is no XBox development team. They all left when they finished their console Java Cobra engine, assuming everything written for PC will "just work" on console. With no active teams, Frontier couldn't fix the game for consoles even if they wanted to.

You are all DOOMED! (and it makes me sad)

Jeez if that's true things are far worse than I realised

I'm not sure Old Duck is an entirely reliable source of information.

I hope you are right. I really hope

I keep waiting for Frontier to refute me (because my thesis is pretty outlandish), but they never do.

I do believe that Frontier is giving their best. Sometimes crap may happen in developing and they made rookie mistakes. But the first patch they released fixed some of their errors and I'm quite sure they are working on the others "game breaking" issues. I am confident that within next few days we'll have another patch to fix the wide majority of issues.
Don't get me wrong, I am still very annoyed by this unprofessionality but what else can we do? Play NMS? SC? No, freaking way. I was born with Elite, grew up with Frontier and First Encounters. I will not give up on ED.

Nah. These guys need reminding that they work in a service industry.

Stuff like this update destroys reputation. And if a game company loses reputation, well... Well you do want to be playing in ten years time right?

So people who work in the service industry deserve to be treated like s@#t? That's nice.

No, Sir. No one does, ever. However it is right for people to express their frustrations and disappointment over a poorly excecuted job. Even if I'm outside the bubble and bug didn't bothered me at all, my Squadron Mates suffered a lot about them especially not being able to engineer ships or broken missions for BGS.
So, yeah.. it's never right to insult but complaining it's something you are allowed to do still with decency.

Mine are still showing red.

All you have to do is pass the selector over them and they go back to normal. I’m on Xbox and I just scrolled down the list

It is currently my experience that the problem of not being able to connect via VPN is most certainly NOT fixed. (Nord, PC, UK to any)

Hi @Sepp,

We've seen a few reports about this in other threads. We've notified the team, but if you're able to provide any additional details, please add them to this Issue Tracker report here.

Thank you!

Hi @Old Duck,

The Elite Dangerous development team works across all platforms (PC and console) and when issues arise, regardless of platform, the team are committed to investigating and fixing those issues where possible.

That's true, but the take-away is that it is not expected behavior. Someone early in the thread said this was fixed; I was pointing out that it is not fixed.

Not gonna' lie.

The use of that emoji does give an indication that you view the community in contempt.

Good job.

You take emojis very seriously.

where possible is not very optimistic

It worked!!! (See Will's reply above)

@Old Duck

Shouldn't your signature read

I once was blind(ed by Elephant Butt Leather), but now I PC!

 

[WinterKing2112]

Engineering looks fixed, the PS4 boot looks fixed, the VPN issue is better but some people still can't connect.

Or run missions...

Like it or not but they are part of modern language.
