ANNOUNCEMENT Community Update - January 3306

[Old Duck]

If only John Boyega or Tom Holland (or Mark Ruffalo) worked at Frontier, then we'd know what was going on!

 

[Winterwalker]

Or maybe there is still an entite week before the update so the notes may change?

Likely. Plus it gives something for Cmdr Thrust (Bradford) to brag about while the servers are down.

 

[Gibbon]

Let's hope the developers and testers don't fail it again.

It's not the testers you need to worry about. We keep giving them the problems to fix, whose fault is it if it doesn't happen? There are bugs going back years that are still present in the current version of the game, when those get fixed, then i'll be happy. For now i'll give FD the benefit of the doubt after the last update debacle, let's hope they've learnt their lesson.

Running like a freshly-purchased Cobra Mk3 ?
Interesting analogy, so you mean it will be E-rated and barely usable ?

It is a little like Chevrolet trying to sell the Nova in Spanish-speaking countries, or the administrators who didn't understand why Hispanics wouldn't go to Salsipuedes Hospital for treatment.

 

[Scubadog]

Well, to be honest, it's hard to get any kind of excited over this since it really is just a bug update. There are so few bugs that I encounter in my experience these days that it's more of an annoyance that the servers will down than any kind of benefit I'll perceive. I see it as no different than waiting for a security update for my phone or PC.

Salsipuedes Hospital

Not heard of that one before

'get out if you can'

 

[jac68]

I'm hoping for the ability to wing up with a npc, but am not holding my breath.

Yeah, it was a real mystery to the hospital until somebody explained it to them.

 

[Ngine523]

Why do i think that blowing up asteroids in a wing will still be bugged after the updates and stuff that was literally asked by single players will be fixed?! honestly FDEV: you lost most good will... better put up or shut up...

 

[Rastarn]

 

[Martin Shepard]

I really hope that POIs not showing up immediatly when scanning a planet will be fixed.

 

[CMDR Big Mike]

It would be sweet if limpets didnt destroy my ship when core mining.

Also, more information please

Also also, why cancel II/CGs? Either completely strapped for manpower, or these updates better be coming a lot sooner than we expect

Lmao I wanted to write this the moment I read the article

But that minty fresh smell!

But that minty fresh smell!

Even "new" Cobras are used, like the Vipers, aren't they?
Also the Lakons look like they are third or fourth hand at minimum.

 

[CMDR Big Mike]

Like seriously this is one of the lamest updates of all time.

The team are hard at work on the next major milestone coming to Elite Dangerous at the latter end of this year and, as also mentioned in the previous post, we'll be ready to start revealing more about this after the Fleet Carriers update. We know you're keen to hear more, and we're excited to be able to show you what's to come!

Get the lead out, lads!
I love the game but the development pace is glacial at best

 

[Bier00t]

I fear last thing to be on hold will be Galnet News - really the last thing that is left for us to get any bit of new content that we have left...

 

[Valorin]

Thanks for the update!

 

[mastershotgun]

This sentence puzzles me "coming to Elite Dangerous at the latter end of this year"... How many end of years do you have in England? I'm sorry the English is not my first language, so maybe I'm reading it wrong, but you do not have like earlier and latter ends of the year, do you?

 

[Fenwe]

Thanks for letting us know Fdev.
