Is there a stance on 'cut scenes'? (I consider Elite all the better for having none.)

Can we see a return of Thargoid massacre missions in areas where Thargoids are present such as Pleiades, Witch Head Nebula And Coalsack to get a little extra for thargoid combat.

I would like to know bout the UDC thing mentioned earlier, about the crashed T-9 in colonia and how it was never fixed to have a destination for the UDC, but to this day it still has a timer and everything. I'm not an expert on the matter but I really wanna know if something got missed.

The recent 'loreification' of changes via galnet articles has been excellent, and a big improvement on how things have been previously. Keep up the good work!

With that in mind, how about doing something similar to give a bit of recognition to some significant in game achievements (whether by group or individuals). Things like Zulu Romeo's arrival at Sag A* for example. It's not just the recognition side of things. There's a lot of stuff that people who are newer to the game won't have been around for, and it might be good to give them a bit of an overview of significant happenings as well!

For sure - we'd love to do this!

In Odyssey, when transitioning from ships to (breathable?) space stations, will my character be in the selected outfit I bought from Holo-Me or in one of the new suits?

That's a good question which I don't have the answer for right now. Will add this to the list for the Odyssey post we're looking to release in future

Will pve piracy get any love? (there's plenty of commodity that are found exclusively on npcs)

We recently buffed Thargoid Combat Bonds considerably (4x) but know that Massarcre missions, incursions and AX CZs are popular requests - we'll bear them in mind moving forward!

Are you considering ways to make it easier to track players with Notoriety in open mode?

This is so player Bounty Hunting can be an option for those wanting some 'righteous' PvP.

 

[Stephen Benedetti]

Hi chaps, are you planning to allow NPC crew to sit in the cockpit?

Good question, we have nothing to announce at the moment about NPC crew members.

 

[Bruce G]

What ... was in Patch 8 that went out today?

Just some maintenance, no tangible in-game changes, hence no patch notes!

 

[Sensei Jacksama]

Will we be able to use our current clothing in Odyssey?

 

[SpaceScania]

Question to add to Odyssey post please: If a player isn't into FPS combat will that part of the expansion be optional? For explorers surely, but for space truckers as well?

 

[Rhys351]

Can we have a Raider style layout and paint jobs for the Fleet Carrier?

 

[Paul_Crowther]

As an explorer, especially with Odyssey coming where I can be the first walking on a planet, will we be able to see which systems we discovered first? Or which planets we mapped first? And with Odyssey, which planets we walked on first?

We'll be sharing more on how explorers can make their mark in Odyssey in future.

 

[HunterwithGreenScales]

Is there anything to the "Landscape Signal"? As in, is it really an intended signal source? Or is it just background sound fodder?

 

[sgurr]

Just in case this was missed:

Are there any plans to subtantially improve the networking performance with multiple players in an instance?

Could a Dev or CM engage with us more in the Suggestions Forum? It feels like a backwater to this forum that is not visited (I could be wrong?)

forums.frontier.co.uk

 

[Bob McBobblehead]

We got three Guardian SLF, some modules and weapons. Will there be a Guardian small, medium or large ship in the future and what happened to the missing guardian modules like FSD(not FSD booster), thrusters and shield generators?

 

[Rubbernuke]

With 'physical multicrew', can we heal others on our ships, or donate weapons / ammunition?

 

[DMaster]

Are there plans for a higher limit of bookmarks in the galaxy map, as well as the possibility to introduce different categories with different colors/symbols (for a better organization)?

Thanks for your attention!

Q: will ship kits ever show up in the HUD / spinny loading screen? If I bolt twenty foot spikes to my hull I want that represented

This would be nice, but probably means creating those assets for every single combination of ship kit pieces on every ship which would be a huge amount of work. A nice to have, but likely to continue taking the backseat priority-wise compared to more pressing projects for the graphics team.
