Greetings Commanders!

I'm going off piste again with creating a casual thread.
Firstly, what a day yesterday! Thank you so much from all of us here for your feedback, thoughts and those really kind wishes directed at the devs as we continue with crafting the greater Galaxy!
They're heroes, I agree.

The other reason I'm here is this:
  • I currently have (since responding to and in turn clearing notifications yesterday evening down to zero) 64 pages of forum mentions and quoted messages to catch up on :')
    • Thats pages, not individual notifications :) You're amazing.
You know how much we love to make sure we get back to you and how valuable each and every comment is but I may be a little slower than some might hope with personal responses, as there's lots to do on all sides.

Just wanted to send a big, personal thank you for your patience! Paul will be around too today :)

Any massive showstoppers/really scary things happening - very happy to have them posted in a response to this thread.

Happy Friday!! o7
 
Any chance you could do a post on how fdev expect on-foot notoriety to work, as it wasn't mentioned in the patch notes?

Edit: e.g. if I'm on a mission and kill clean NPCs should I get Notoriety? In EDH you don't get notorious if you kill things for a mission, but in EDO it's less clear what 'on a mission' means - if I kill ppl while turning off the alarms for a heist should I be Notorious?

Thanks Sally!

I'm going to take this opportunity and ask - will ADS on the Intimidator be fixed anytime soon? It's been broken since Update 4 or 5. And seeing how ADS on Opressor was fixed in update 6 but the Intimidator was left as it is... how come?

Heya! Sure! Can arrange that :) I'm a bit confused why it would be expected in the patch notes for you though, so if there was any point in the patch notes specifically linked to this topic for you that needs more clarification then let me know :)

As mentioned in this post, it'll take me a fair old time to get back to you while I go through the feedback from over night but bear with me :)

Hi Sally - there was no Notoriety for on-foot actions before Patch 6, so it was a change in patch 6 and Notoriety wasn't mentioned at all.

It brings up issues like : if I'm on a mission and kill clean NPCs should I get Notoriety? In EDH you don't get notorious if you kill things for a mission, but in EDO it's less clear what 'on a mission' means - if I kill ppl while turning off the alarms for a heist should I be Notorious?

Lots of discussions here https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/odyssey-activities-now-give-notoriety.586957/
 
Hi @sallymorganmoore!
Thanks, but unfortunately, this Friday will not be happy for me. I often played my favorite game on weekends. Unfortunately, patch 6 did not improve my performance and the new graphics settings from AMD significantly worsened the quality. :(
Should I wait for patch 7? Is there any chance that Frontier Developments will give me my favorite game back and the joy of playing it? Is there any hope? :(

Id like to take this chance too. Things look better now, especially the Planets and it appears the Dev Team is Trying their best to fix The managers mistakes but the Frames per second are still below the 20's on Geforce now and just about 30's on a RTX 3060ti (near settlements and on some Planets). I am using Geforce Now cause im genuinly scared that Oddysey will damage my own card. (When i played it on my own PC, my 3060ti was sounding like a turbine)

Now to my question, are you guys allowed to tell us anything on when Optimisation will be complete? That would certainly be appreciated by many. Have good day!

you can always go back to normal supersampling instead of the amd one, just click on it. Also what resolution do you play on? With 1080p or lower there is sadly next to no effect on performance with amd fsr.

I know. And so I did. But with the standard settings, I still get 12-15 fps in many cases. Patch 6 did not improve my performance.
(I play on 1080p)
 
Happy Friday Sally,

Could i make a small suggestion, it looks like your gonna get asked a lot of questions regarding what was added with Patch 6. Things such as the implementation of AMD FSR and the removal of AMD CAS, I can see from above that Cmdrs are asking about the Notoriety changes. These are things I for one would think perfect for the monthly dev stream. Could you consider maybe using the monthly dev stream to discuss why the changes have been made and what effects that has overall.

Might help reduce the number of questions you have to face after patch release.

Hey sally, thanks for doing this!

I do have some things to report. Unfortunately work has been too busy to make tracker tickets etc. so this is all i have time for.

  1. Tilman Point station is currently damaged but missing a rescue ship.
  2. Tilman Point station is inside the ring system, which leads to bugs with asteroids clipping through the station, including the hangar entrance. Got killed by one such asteroid the other day. This happens randomly but often, and with multiple asteroids.
  3. Supercruise assist was not disengaging when target was in a ring system (Tilman point, RES sites). Unknown if still persists with Patch 6.
  4. It is not possible to see the modifications of stored modules in the outfitting screen. The UI tab exists, however does not work. Been this way since patch 5 and confirmed to persist in patch 6. I have recorded a video but sadly haven't uploaded it yet.
  5. If the same type of module is replaced, e.g. equipped multicannon is replaced by stored multicannon, and both are engineered, then the experimental of the old module persists in the UI after the module has been replaced. You must go back to the station service menu and return to outfitting for the experimental to get updated correctly. Unknown if it still persists, didn't check.
  6. This is a major lighting bug - in supercruise or otherwise, if you lose line of sight to a star (e.g. behind a planet), ALL OTHER planets in the view become dark. This persists as of patch 6. Again, have a video of this but not uploaded yet.
See images below for (2) and (6).

That gas giant should be lit up. if you go back out of the planet's shadow, it will become lit up again. Happens irrespective of system.

The thanks should go to you. You tirelessly take care of us and your positive nature makes a lot of things so that it doesn't feel so bad anymore. Thanks for that and have a wonderful (deserved) weekend! Cheers :)
