FYI, I executed two crash site missions successfully with patch 5. Just a data point, doesn't mean something is not broken with your particular mission/level etc.
Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 5

If so, it's been confirmed by dozens of actual players that it isn't. I got 8 confirmed covert thefts and 2 covert heists, not enough; had to do another 4 covert heists. "Sometimes" indeed.
Eyup, I have that suspicion as well, some settlements (extraction) works fine, some are at 12 FPS (same layout)
Finally you won't be blinded by your own bloom! Fantastic work FD

Hello. I'm so sorry I wasn't in today. Got a little backlog of tags and quotes and messages to work through tomorrow but will do my best to get back to you asap.
No rush, we're a patient bunch
Invisible rocks, still in game, any news?
If you manage to thin that backlog, maybe the really bad stuttering that kills the fps down to single digits in EDO Settlements get your attention too
Please?
it appeared with Update 5

No news as yet sorry! I absolutely spoke with QA on it at the end of last week and I had some INCREDIBLE help from several Commanders now sending me specific locations where they were at their worst! Still really grateful to those folk. It's not just a case of "rocks are invisible = everywhere", it's like "certain specific rocks are invisible = only where they wanna be on whichever of the landable planets they choose" :')
So yeah...eyes are on. It's a tricky one but again, so thankful to the rock spotters I had!!
The idea is that for gaming mulithreading leads to lower FPS in general, and Edo is no exception. You can disable it in CPU settings of your bios. If it doesn't work you just turn it back on.
Still unable to use the jetpack properly as the HOLD button doesn't seem to work when using an xbox controller and HOTAS together
It definitely seems to be a problem connected to those two controls surfaces in use together as there are some other HOLD functions that will only work on one controller and not the other despite being bound properly. Certain menus will only accept a controller bound A press etc. There are a myriad other things I'd like to highlight that don't work as they should but I'm sticking with the Jump pack one until it gets resolved.

quit complaining
I actually see detail imrovements in space background 
Hi Sally,
Since update 5 a lot of folks have had their first encounter with the game dropping to cripplingly poor framerates, as well as the now rarer than hen's teeth Support missions being broken, if you can actually find one.
I'm disappointed that after Arthur's words about openess and honesty, FD seems to be resuming it's role of "Hey, no problem here, let's check out all the cool Community stuff.....".
I'm a fan, I don't mind there being issues, I'm sure they'll be sorted - but shouldn't FD be talking about them and how they're going to be fixed - instead of reverting to type? And for goodness sakr the roadmap was built up to bigger than Ben-hur, what the hell happened, and why ("openess and honesty") hasn't it been explained?
Seriously, I respect FD and all you guys - but this does not compute.
Are we ready yet to just completely revert the un-necessary "Docked menu now defaults to 'Starport Services'" change from Update 4? No, Update 5 didn't fully fix it and many of us are of the opinion it never needed changing in the first place. I always want to refuel as first action after docked:
I already added a reproduction on this pre-Update 5 issue that was still open (and not marked as a duplicate of the one that is now erroneously marked as fixed): https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/39226

Thanks Piglet
I've made a note for myself for the morning again on HOTAS/controls feedback. Again, thanks for your helpfulness with noting with the issue link too. Helps me out so much (also thanks for helping out further by raising just one prevailing issue for now). Very helpful Also the bloom is gone from Plasma Accelerators and the shots are now really hard to see and track in PvP it looks terrible.
You are a Star Sally and I won't hear otherwise!! Keep on keepin' on!!Thanks Piglet
Some positive bugs.
1) whilst doing high czs with one of my vettes... when the battle is over and I go into sc to head back to hand in, the heatsinks and shield cell charges have all reset to the max. Having depleted em it's surely not intentional?
Surely this is a positive bug? Oh mebbe I shouldn't mention it!?

I've had normal numbers of support missions, done a good 20 million's worth or more... Could there be some other cause - something intentional, perhaps, in how support missions are generated? Perhaps they occur during expansion phases of the giver faction, perhaps during times of stress also, such as famine or whatever..? I don't know, but the faction giver for me is one with which I'm allied and which is actively supported in the BGS, so frequently fights wars or enters expansion.
