Aww, no patch to fix the things broken by Update 5?
Like the stuttering down to single digit fps (*) in certain settlements and the broken missions?

*(these happens on specs well above the recommended specs)

 

[Rubbernuke]

Piracy stream? Oh no.

Get Arthur to pirate a megaship.

@Zac Cocken how about to stop streaming Supercruise News at all (until the majority of EDO issues are resolved) and switch to the stream showing up the fixes from the latest update? Just demonstrating the work of test engineers at FDev...

That's actualy a very great idea, I love it

No reply, no communication.

Sad story :-(

Update 5 fixed a bunch of minor little quibbles relating to data spawns and raid missions, but then completely and utterly tanked performance and made the game unplayable.

I could play the game without Yarden Bond. I can't play the game when my framerates drop to single digits.

Exactly. Nobody cares about UI and paintworks now, just make the game playable. Then add content, not the opposite way

We'll see, hopefuly

Get Arthur to pirate a megaship.

That is a great suggestion

Please remember to be civil and polite.

I actually care.
I payed good money on my Carriers cosmetics and in EDO they look like Crap
Same for some of the paintjobs i got for my ships

Sure, i'd like the stuttering / fps fixed, i'd like the missions fixed too, but the payed cosmetics are important too...

 

[Rubbernuke]

Damn straight it is. Maybe humiliation by livestream will get it fixed after it being reported for over a year.

Eyup, I meant it that way; like nobody cares UNTIL the performance is fixed.

That can’t be a real cat - there’s something weird about it

 

[denispage]

I think he resumed well.

Embrace the impact everyone. The console launch will be delayed.
Agreed that update 5 was good, but still far to be real good.

i disagree with both your statements.
Update 5 really broke a lot, if not most, of the settlements. Major stuttering and FPS tanking to single digits
Plus the broken missions.

 

[CMDR Von Abrahart]

Nope deffo cats are weird

Lucky he’s not in charge otherwise exploits would be built in as gameplay

You're right. Many things were broken and they fix many other things.
I need to change my statemen to: I liked part of update 5, like shared missions, shield % information and engineered info in shipyard.

Clearly they release a beta.

 

[Northpin]

shield % information

Having the number is really nice indeed, but making it wiggly is quite disturbing and takes a lot from it.

 

[CMDR Von Abrahart]

Yes shouldn‘t wiggle

Thursday

Arf's Pirate Stream: The Twitterverse demanded it, and here it is. Arthur will be donning his favourite pirate outfit and sailing (flying?) the high seas of space and getting up to no good in this bumper pirate stream.

Just to point out, in the email this is advertised as the 7th.

The 7th is Wednesday, so I assume the email is wrong...

(I can watch on the 7th, so that's why I noticed. I am sadly not available on the 8th...)

Update 5 really broke a lot, if not most, of the settlements. Major stuttering and FPS tanking to single digits
Plus the broken missions.

I never noticed - even the missions I did were no more bugged than normal:

Skim through: It is just about 3 hours of play! - fps counter active all through... missions completed - but one needed a revisit!
(There is a big FPS drop (20 FPS) a few minutes in during play - I'd like to blame the game, but the issue was other software! (when I tab out Nvidia CP sets the idle FPS to 20!))

@zac you misspelt Update #6 as Piracy. Just thought you would want to know.
