A very happy Friday to you, Commanders!

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/

AH perfect. Thanks for clarifying :)
 
If you can share some examples we might need to look at then I'll be able to tell what the current situation is. Thanks!
It's with regards to https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/34834

The preview images of Update 6 also show these patterns.
See here:

Sally is the best CM!

My one gripe right now is that Bulk Passenger missions still do not show the destination faction to deliver to.


This bug is important to me when I do BGS and this one thing makes me have to load up Horizons instead of Odyssey when I want to do BGS. I wish I could just play Odyssey but this information is kind of crucial if I want to BGS efficiently. Thank you Sally for everything.

Can you show some current examples from update 6 from your own experience - I would be interested to see the current progress as currently ( from Wednesday ) I have been unable to get online.
 
Sally, yesterday I stacked 5 Salvage Missions to see if the bugs were fixed.
3 were a success, however 1 Satelitte Crash site didn't complete the Mission despite me taking the item from the panel & 1 item in a locker failed as the locker was crammed with goodies, but not the item I needed.

While it's a definite improvement, there's still the odd hiccup which is causing Missions to have to be abandoned.

I notice from other threads knocking about that it's not just me being effected.

I'll be doing some more Salvage Missions today & will make some notes & report on the tracker which are failing.
 
Regards notoriety: is one point equal to one situation of murder, regardless (so, a sort of 'Death Unit' of measurement)?

It seems a bit off that blowing up a Beluga gets you one point (which has got (presumably) lots of people on board, but you get the same amount by making someone on foot 'fall over' as well. Is this intentional, if not, will notoriety be re-calibrated?
 
Hey Sally and the rest of the CM team,
Really appreciating the engagement and feedback, please keep looking after yourselves first and foremost!


Some feedback from a session this morning, sorry about this.

Performance
Performance hasn't improved for me, Odyssey FPS is still 60-65% that of Horizons in directly comparible places with no on foot elements, with Odyssey's FPS being noticably more unstable never mind the drops and extra instability when I go to an Odyssey settlement or concourse.
I know there are deeper performance improvements being looked at, I hope they're addressed the direct performance downgrade compared to Horizons as well as specific on foot elements.

I've tried down-sampling and using FSR, it definitely works and helps with FPS but adds a LOT more aliasing to the image, makes the text harder to read and also just doesn't look as nice to me (1440p monitor and VR headset with 4k per eye)

Paintjobs
With the Stygian (and Iridescent) paintjobs, the problem was not the colour, it's that half the PJ is missing (I've checked this morning)
In Odyssey it looks like this:

In Horizons it looks like this:

Repeating terrain
Finally in regards to the repeating terrain geography you're talking about here:
If you can share some examples we might need to look at then I'll be able to tell what the current situation is. Thanks!
I drove the SRV over some cool terrain, then flew to the other side of the world and saw the exact same terrain.
This is "Ross 1047 B 1 a" this morning:

Sorry this isn't more positive Sally

Hi @sallymorganmoore,
Just so you know the SLF crew are really chatty after the patch. After you tell them to focus fire they go rambling on about the area being clear. I think they are running the entire dialogue string? Odd!
