Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 3

[LLB]

@sallymorganmoore I have been working as a team lead of a support team in the communications area and all I can say is worst update is better than no update to the customer and recently you guys are on right track. Just be nice and fair to dev team as well just like you are to us.

I have a query too. Not sure if this is reported before (couldn't find on issue tracker) but we are no longer able to see online squadron member's name when we hover or click to system name in galaxy map.

cheers, keep up the good work.

Yeah - please give us a sign - are they in the game, or are they Raxxla2?

Hello! Just want you to know I totally see you o7 Your sign is receieved clearly and my probes are...out.

Thank you so much for the work done! I admire your hard work. Making such large patches in such a short time is impressive!

I would like to clarify, have you observed a bug with a fall in FPS after a hyperspace jump? This is observed on hardware with a weak processor. Several patches have passed, and despite the overall performance improvement, this annoying bug still exists. I wrote to the mail about the bug and showed how to reproduce it.

Spoiler: Example

Before jump (this is a training mission)

After jump (and restarting mission)

SLI still broken, lower FPS than single card and eventually crashing after a few minutes.

I would imagine there's a limit similar to how ship and module buying works with arx atm.

This is the first I've heard of that.

So, FDEV transparent communication strategy - won't even let the community know about Smear Campaigns. How much effort would this take them to say "they are definitely there, go hunt" (working as intended) or "broken for now" (please wait).

Arx

• Arx will now be awarded for Odyssey gameplay, including -
  • First footfall
  • Organic sample
  • Organic analysis
  • Suit/Weapon buy/sell/upgrade
  • Suit/Weapon modify
  • Selling goods/assets/data
  • Combat zones on foot - winning and capturing point
  • Shuttle travel

So...er..

No arx for the entire scavenging/on foot base mission game loop?
A tad strange that you don't get arx for say, shutting down/powering up a settlement, or any number of other on foot activities.

 

[Ryuto]

Great to see it! One step at a time!

 

[Muzz UK]

Can anyone confirm performance and fps increases yet with the shadow optimizations?

 

[madmattnz]

Hey madmattnz! Sorry to hear this! Can you pop a ticket into the issue tracker please so this info doesn't get lost in the thread? https://issues.frontierstore.net/ . Thanks!

Ok - thanks Sally, and by the way, a little belated, but it’s great to have you back!

 

[duduschmus]

I really hope the performance will get fixed soon. I have almost all settings now on low, 1080p and super sampling at 0.85. Everything just looks awful and still runs at 20-40fps :/

 

[sallymorganmoore]

Thanks FDev! Keep the updates comin', Thank you for the dedication with the updates!

Thank YOU for your feedback and support, Commander o7

[SixVI]

Wow. I love what you done to engineers portraits. they do not affected by the color ui change. Great Job.

 

[Toxophilite]

Umm, what is a "toast" notification?

And, thanks!
And... please can the team look at fixing the ship scanner in planetary flight (blue circles have gone), SRV scanner (disappearing signals) and restoring the ships %shield strength on the helm (centre) menu?
Cheers!

 

[Trinity Star]

When are they going to fix suit/clothing decals, no point in purchasing anymore until they do.

Are we able to unlock Yarden Bond at this version of the game or not?

It's a little popup notifying you that you did what you just did.

 

[Phoenix Ryder]

So ... someone could sit there buying and selling suits and weapons from Pioneer, and Arx go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr until it hits 400?

Why bother losing money when you can get the 400 in an hour or so and making and 30-40 million+ CR ?

 

[Shaele]

so the good : Resupply option in the armstrong circle

the meh - FPS still bad, 30 - 60 fps (when facing a wall in the dark), below 60 fps when in orbit around a planet (upper edges of atmo) even tho the planet was dark
Still no arx for doing non mission things in settlements - killed 10 npc's, stole 2 suit loads of junk and a power regulator and got 3 arx
