Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 5

[RikonGB]

How is it harder to get Power regulators when the missions available cannot be completed due to coding errors and, if you want it or not you end up with a regulator just for trying to complete a mission?

would not know have not found any restore missions to be able to try

But that comment was about taking the missions just to get the regulator to upgrade a suit and not actually attempt the mission.
as have had very bad results looting one, think I have looted 1 usable and around 100 degraded. and do not get many from mision rewards may found 2 or 3.

...
if you want to get rid of the element of chance...

Ah, thanks for the tip.

We'll see... I seem to have a bit on an internal block when it comes to stealing and murdering, in games where it is optional, even in a virtual setting, and even when the pseudo-randomly populated data structures that are my victims, carry the procedurally assigned numbers that designate them virtual hitlers.

No, not everyone. But many people do.

Then to all those players I suggest a better, proven, playable game is more to their taste. Take your pick of the ones available, it's a shame FDevs didn't look into that earlier.

There's still some odd quirks in the Temperature Range for some planets.

OMG

Fear the methane magma.

Why is it so hard to upgrade a spacesuit in a game about space and ships?
And where are the hackers in Anarchies who can change the data?

i posted about this on another thread and earlier on in this one. If the container is not listed in the console it will be outside on a roof. This has been confirmed by other CMDR's after my findings.

We're agree this is a bug, how re u going to know this without a crystal ball. U know every mission I get has one or two problems that made it imposible to finish it. Container missing, or buried in the ground.
I'm getting tired. Gonna keep waiting some more patches before coming back to this game.

I have given it a fair enough test. Too many game crashes (white x red circle). Into planetary bases, exiting supercruise, even loading the game. Was better on better settings then too unstable this weekend, so back to Horizons for me.

 

[Sergo]

Will it ever be fixed?

At NPC stations in textures

Are retrieve item from crash sites missions broke? Just took one but it doesn't generate a site when I got there (even after mapping the planet/moon).

A detail I've been noting since quite a while :

- FSS does not render Asteroid Rings of zoomed in Gas Giants/Planets/Moons anymore?

At least I can't remember seeing a ringed Planet or Gas Giant rendering the Asteroid Rings in FSS in Odyssey to be honest.
In Horizons, that often used to give quite distinct visuals in FSS (and immediately indicate presence of Asteroid Rings) and I believe I never saw that ever again ever since Odyssey.

Now, only the Icon on the FSS Spectrum or later the System Maps appear to indicate Asteroid Rings anymore.

No, it's due to the fact factions no longer send you to repair other faction's bases. So if one faction has a base that needs fixed, and 9 other factions are within range, the odds of a mission is now 10x lower.

If this were the case then I would expect there to be at least one restore mission on the board where there were previously 6 for the same location and this simply isn't the case. I'm currently working out of Tau Ceti and pre-patch there were regularly three locations that required restoring (more missions were available by different factions at the same location but only one per location could be taken). Post update 5 there are zero. And it's the same everywhere I've been. Since update 5 I have seen zero support missions, let alone restore missions.

There is something wrong with this and your explanation doesn't cover it.

@sallymorganmoore

Please take this and fix it asap or before console release,the game is unplayable at settlements since update 5!

Added to this one as well. Game is unplayable.

Also NVidia? Reports that mention GPU seem all of that brand. Which drivers are you on?

Newest, after having the same problems with the previous one.

I had this a number of times. The FSS reads the correct value, and it's the value that's being logged (one can cross reference on EDSM), so it looks like a visualisation bug for the System Map?

I've checked this on EDSM, too and it's indeed as per your FSS reading

The only support missions I found (very rarely) include extinquishing fires. These are BROKEN!!!!!! no onscreen indication of completion or any progress bar to show progression of fire control. SERIOUSLY these were working fine before update 5 so why don't you remove what is obviously the problem (update 5) until you test it on a private server. Or is that considered too much trouble???
Interesting that, of the ones I've found, they are multiple missions for the same target base, I thought this update was supposed to remove multiple missions of the same target?? and that was considered the root cause of the problem (which obviously it isn't) .Attached shows actually only three missions when board shows seven available. But on the plus side I now have a huge amount of power regulators!
I have also noticed that 'kill scavenger' missions also seem to be bugged as, on landing, no onscreen indication of how many need killing or in some cases NO scavengers at all! It seems that update 5 is imploding the whole game.

Mission board shows many but you are supposed to be only able to take one. If that isn't the case it's bugged.

Same here, it’s fine on planet surfaces, horrible in settlements.

Yes, they are broke. https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/39930 ... mission pois for crash sites (and seems also mission assassinations when redirected) are not generated with patch 5.

Right now the mission board doesn't seem to show any. I know some people have said they've still found some - where? I might go see if I can see them too.
