Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 4

Thanks for the Heads up. So can we stop looking for them then?

Also, any news about possible balance changes? Like for example
  • Projectile Speed on Executioner (since its not really viable at Long Range),
  • Damage versus Skimmer, SRV and even Ships for regular Anti-Infantery Weapons,
  • Ship-Damage versus Suits (Class 3 Beamlasers only tickle them)
  • Capped Damage of High-Damage Singleshot Weapons (even 1% of a Shield absorbs a full Projectile, while Auto or Shotguns simply ignore that due to the amount of Projectiles),
  • Sharpshooters spawning too randomly as part of Groups, which can cause severly broken encounters,
  • Team not being able to use Turrets on a Ship (Only Holo-Multicrew can)
Whoah there cowboy
 
Just to be clear. You are just a guy who posts the patch notes, you don't really know what, how, if.... maybe they missed something in a patch notes, like Smear Campaign Plans ?
No disrespect to you. Please.
Smear Campaign Plans are so secret posting information about them here would be breaching of state secrets!

I don't feel disrespected AT all but I do feel I should maybe introduce myself -
I'm Sally, previously on the Production team for Elite Dangerous so I know quite a lot about the development of the game from Horizons onwards (not tooting my own horn, just want you to feel reassured I know what I'm doing). Similarly, Community Managers who write the patch notes absolutely know everything they possibly can about the game and it's progress. We're here to support you on this side and the devs on our side to get this game the best it can be for you all.
I'm also not a guy.

Smear Campaign plans, as I said to a couple of Commanders back in the thread - we're looking deeply into things on that side and will update you asap with news on progress.

Thanks!

Wow now that's a patch noted list! I had to go and make a cup of tea halfway through just to get me to the end. A huge thanks to the team for their continued hard work, especially this time the UI team. There are a lot of pretty big QoL improvements in usage terms there, and that is greatly appreciated. Remember to stay hydrated and take breaks.


I didn't see a fix mentioned for the target button in the System Map being wrong https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/32739 which I only mention because of all the other changes in there.

Sally can I ask a question please? Is the "Codex CMDR stats" that were mentioned in the roadmap just the limited 'distance travelled on foot' one, are there not any coming for Exobiology or Mercenary?
 
Frontier always in the front line in the fight. (y)

And as usual when I see the awesome lists of updates, I wonder how it is possible to make so many mistakes originally. :unsure:

😷
If you can name a piece of software that you have purchased in the last 15 years that meets the following criteria, I'd be very interested to know what it was:

Has a Version Number of 1.0
Has NO known flaws
Does exactly what it was intended to do - Every time
Has NEVER crashed when being used as intended
Is impossible to use in a manner that it was not intended to function, and doesn't crash if it is
Has had No updates, fixes, security patches etc released for it
Has had no new features added
Has not been replaced by a newer version.

I'd like to know, so I can make sure none of my Pension fund is invested in that software company (if they even still exist)

Nah ! its just that if they release this easy you will have EDO gameplay done for like 95%, end of gameplay ! The rest is just same all story over and over again , grind, grind grind, =upgrade..... grind , grind , grind, =upgrade... Sometimes to distract just go do some missions for BGS or just for leveling up your ranks .... (Oh wait, this is also grind, grind , grind...) ... Well seems i already finished this game nothing new , and dont understand what are the plans in the future for the game, if this will be like 1 year just for fixing and balancing and nothing more, than sorry but this game is not for me anymore!
 
Now that we're just one update away from the end of the "roadmap" are we going to get a replacement roadmap with longer term goals?
 
Tried multiple times to play but zero success so far. Either stuck on Loading Game screen, or cannot find a server, or Toupe Cobra error, or loaded once but immediately crashed into a black screen. I think the game and the servers are still not stable yet.
 
Still no Odyssey specific POIs on planet surface with plant life. Going back to X4 and Star Citizen. I'll check next week update.
