Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 7 Notes

Fixed jump assist fuel usage so that holding the button and repeatedly tapping it will reach the same height.
This seemed to be a feature, didn't it? Is that correct that the maximum height can be reached by just holding the button?
Ship launched fighters no longer grant combat bonds in conflict zones.
Is it about space combat zones? Does that mean that when your SLF destroys an enemy ship at CZ will not give you combat bonds?
Seeker and Pack Hound Missiles no longer cause double damage on shields.
Thanks for that!
A fix has been implemented for "ghosting" (kids these days know this as only one thing. I myself am guilty of it too though, I won't lie) effects seen in cockpits when ship would overheat.
Not sure if it is related to my graphics settings or just a bug - since a while I don't get the frozen glass effect after launching heat sinks. The opposite to the effect you mentioned as fixed. Could it be a bug?
Map UI - Added a new Friends sticky panel to the Galaxy Map, which displays a list of friends in the selected system.
I was missing this since Horizons, thanks for adding this back!
 
That's fine! Each to their own :)


Still got some awesome Commanders playing, so we'll keep doing what we're doing now for them and welcome anyone who would like to come back, whenever they're ready :)

Not true, I/we listen to it and feedback to it pretty much every day here. The critical feedback is what gives us the ability to put out these updates.


Thanks!


We'll keep rolling out the improvements as best we can though to make way for content so that's cool.


Getting on with it now.


What would you like us to do, sorry? You want us to "bring the game back to being the pinnacle of games it was" but we're getting 'told off' for doing the updates that will hopefully make that happen.


I'm so confused, I'm sorry.


Hi.


Nah


Nahhh


No really. I actually GENUINELY appreciate the time you put into this statement. I do. All feedback is absolutely welcome and it is only making us better (you might not think it but honestly, it is).


Yay (we'll keep going!).
My goodness Sally, you are an Iron Willed Woman - Impressive. Long may your strength stand up!

We are going to need a kick-[donkey] Sally COVAS pack before too long.
 
Wow, this all looks good.

Although I'm not sure about this change to downloading data. If I read it right, this means that even downloading legal (as in not illegal) data is still going to aggro any NPC that sees you? Could you explain the reasoning behind that?

Also, I don't see anything about Unicorn Defence Plans.
 
I have always wondered where we outside FDev can find figures for the number of players that are accurate enough to show a 10% shift, which is what a decimation is.

Maybe, a long time ago. If words always adhered to their etymologies, December would still be the tenth month of the year.
 
  • Minor optimisation to avatar hair lighting have been made (Maybe they're born with it. Maybe it's optimised🎶).
well, I chuckled.

I've worked in IT for 20 years, these are genuinely some of the most well written, entertaining and understandable patch notes I've seen. Well done Sally!

Try not to make me cry really thankful tears at my desk so soon after we've gone live, ey? Big o7
Thanks for making these updates possible with your feedback and cooperation, to you and everyone.
