Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 6

Greetings Commanders!

The time is almost upon us as the day of deployment for Update 6 has arrived.

<snip>

See you in the black, Commanders o7

That's a lot! Thank y'all for the update, I look forward to testing it out when I get home from work today, especially the new planet colors and changes. One thing I would like to mention, please don't change the lighting too much, space is dark and I think the current lighting is more realistic as it is, and much more atmospheric. o7

Another thanks for @sallymorganmoore and teams.

Having an insight into what the actual ‘bottleneck’ is with frame rates would be great. At minimum we could understand ‘what’ the issues are and feel ‘included‘ in the dev of the game.

For instance was it only transparency issues? Or also occlusion volumes, LOD details, shadow generation. What are the overheads at the moment - would love to have an insight.

Yeah so another Commander here was excited by the idea of us doing a focused chat or post about performance progress. Like a breakdown of the "story so far". I personally think this is a great idea too so I'll float it back stage :)
 
What about the 'conda?

Question for a future patch - will storage for data, goods and technology for Odyssey be changed to be in line with Horizons, so you don't have 1,000 slots to share for all goods items, but rather e.g. 200 for each individual item type?

This was a Mahoooosive patch, can you please convey thanks to the hardworking unseen devs behind the scenes and I personally REALLY want to thank Frontier for taking on board a LOT of our feedback and actually listening to what players want. Thank you @sallymorganmoore

:)

Out of many, Piglet, I was genuinely excited to see your reaction to some of these actually :)
 
Nice! I just hope that 1 second press and hold on illegal interaction applies only when it will actually trigger a crime. Think of us, kleptomaniacs picking up everything when nobody is looking, illegal or not... ;)
I agree, I wonder if it wouldn't be a better idea to have a 'do not pick up illegal items' check box in commander settings or something?

Given that it was this way in Horizons originally, but then changed to the current system because it annoyed everyone so much, you have to wonder why exactly the same thing was done again with Odyssey...
