FWIW I still get the same FPS as always. If anything they have gone down a bit for me, to now 19 on the concourse from 25 w/ patch 5. I don't really care to reduce my resolution so that I can't read text anymore, so disregarding that option, it appears that we're 6 patches down the road now and nothing substantial has changed. They are never going to get this fixed.
Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 6
- Thread starter sallymorganmoore
- Start date
Why only two things for horizons when there are hundreds off pages for bugs to be fixed for horizons?
Which option in the graphics settings does this apply to? Which setting do I dial down if I want to scale back the glass shader quality?
It means being hassled by bounty hunter NPCs incessantly while trying to get stuff done. Please tell me it's not 1 for 1 on NPCs at settlements? One settlement raid and you're at 20hrs of notoriety?
I don't quite get it yet, and at 7 now. Seems to scale a bit, murdering an entire settlement got me from 6 to 7.
Sally the game is taking the shield percentage of the last ship that you have scanned and overlaying it to stellar bodies.. I have checked this multiple times and it's from the very last ship contact you scan before you deselect. I hope this helps.
@sallymorganmoore
Murdering workers get you notoriety.
Wait until you get to 10, and murder a clean ship in a Corvette, or something else big, and look at the bounties you get
Sure, but how many per level? Is it linear?
I thought it was one per level, but I'm not sure now... I have shot more military personnel than workers tbh.
When doing a settlementmission for collecting personal data and there are megaships around the planet these are also marked as mission destinations.

What?
ETA: Oh crap, I see it. No freaking way.
"Illegal interactions (Hacking, taking stolen/illegal items, pressing illegal consoles) now require a press and hold for 1 second to avoid accidental criminal activity."
I have not once accidentally pressed 'E' or the button assigned to that. That's going to make settlement looting a long freaking process.
You have to hold down the interact button to pick things up on foot now, breaks the flow even more. On top of that, there's now a minimum distance limit for the arc cutter. Considering there are no more reactivation missions in Oddysey, this is entirely needless and only hurts people even more.
It's a video game, why can't they let it behave like one? Jesus Christmas Christ.

For God's sake those are actions I need to happen, right the freak when I need to, not after I fiddle around position and hold it down. I might need to activate that panel or snatch that item lickity split. Not to mention all the ways that's going to make people re-press and screw up.
These are the type of things that we should hear about in advance with a chance for feedback. I can tell you right now, that this is a major negative impact on what I do that's not C&P but just punishment via the UI. Every update seems to have one of these surprise hammer-to-the-fingers items. I wish it would stop.

The problem that I see with giving notoriety for on-foot murders is that it's even more incentive for people to dunk on anarchy settlements specifically when they're farming power regulators or opinion polls or whatever, as if they didn't already have enough of a reason to single out those factions for farming.
I will try really hard to be positive.
Good news, it seems AMD FSR does lower your GPU usage a little bit, at ultra quality is not horrible. But you can see the visual diference between native and FSR (Edges, text, etc.)
Bad news, disable FSR and everything is the same as it used to be.
The frame drops are still massive with and without FSR, 1% low sometimes falling below half of the avg FPS, and .1% low going to the 1 digit territory (specially inside bases and startports).
Just in case someone wondering same setup as with Horizon, 1440p, ultra quality settings (R5 3600, 16GB DDR4 3200, RTX 2070-latest driver) .
Adding AMD FSR is the first step in the right direction I see since Odyssey launch (its been more than 2 months now).
But unless developers fix the game engine performance this wont really get better.
Main menu needs a hard coded FPS cap, and the starport menus still use over 90% of your GPU, is insane:
