Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 7 Notes

I also noticed that it was still hold not toggle. Like many I didn't like the hold mechanism at launch but now that we've got used to it the change back to a toggle may well be unwelcome to many so perhaps leave as it is? (I guess an option in bindings is the way to go ... perhaps it already is an option, in which case - excellent).

It's totally optional here, if this helps. If some of you DON'T have the option to change it then totally let me know :)

The game dropped to single digit fps then froze for about 30 seconds, I have never had that before.
To me that is a serious performance problem that has appeared with this patch.
Welcome to my world of pain. I've been suffering this since alpha. Fortunately, it usually jumps up to a reasonable (depending on situation, sometimes only just barely reasonable) frame rate after a bit.
 
... the patch notes are wrong - seems a Hold / Toggle option was added under the keybind, and it defaults to Hold, so seems unchanged. You could have checked that yourself, like I did :)

Yeah - I'm at work tho so no Elite here to double check. When I saw someone mention it still being hold I thought I'd back them up, then realised an option would be good, then realised it might already be an option. Probably shouldn't have posted at all as it happens ... c'est la vie.
 
Ah, another patch and more strange bugs appearing.

It won't happen, I can't see it happening, but I wish, I just wish, that a representative of Management that approved this update for release posts an apology and some kind of explanation why so many strange bugs happen.

I know it's their job, but I really dislike that Sally and the rest of of CMs have to apologise and take the blame for things they're not responsible for.
So I'd really wish that something like I described would happen.
 
After surgery on my right hand, I'd hoped to get back to a little light Elite over the weekend; but having now ploughed through this thread, I'm thinking the smart option would be to spare myself the frustration by waiting at least until the next hotfix.

You guys rock!

And I got my pink SRV back!!!!! (did I already mention I got my pink SRV back?)

It looks beautiful ... even at 10 fps! ;)

I'm joking, my framerates don't seem bad so far.

Have a nice day Sally - don't let the bar stewards grind you down!
 
Hi all. I'm going to get on my high horse for a second here, bare with me.

<high horse>
Could we please hold off on the negativity and tantrums, maybe a little? Yes, EDO has issues and this is why we're here. FDev posts a patch and we're giving them feedback on it. There's 39 pages on this thread already and it's hard to pick feedback vs hissy fits.
</high horse>

My small issue to report is that, while headlook now does activate the Comms panel, it clears the NPC messages as soon as I look at it. If I set it to 'show' then the message stays but, of course, I can't interact with the panel.

Thanks!

It's matte.

(I have the Iridescent Scorch, and while it's true that the paint finally, after 7 updates, covers the entire SRV again, the shiny metallic effect from Horizons is still missing.)

Tell you what.

I will forever remain in silence and even delete my account right there and then (lol joke, don't think the forum gives that option) if Frontier will give me a refund for EDO. Don't even need an apology from DBOBE or anything to that matter.

Until that happens (and it won't) - deal with it. As Frontier will have to - you reap what you sow.

OK, Can not access anything in Fleet Carrier Menus. Nothing selectable. Can not even change ships. Really?

When do we get a patch that actually fixes things, and does not break working things?......

Already onnnnnnnnnnn the case. Collected all of the reports so far so bear with me :)
Can you tell me what you did before going into the menu please?

@Bottom Hat future stupfhz here I think keep it bookmarked.

@sallymorganmoore Sorry I hate to tag you but have you been informed that on foot npc appear to be easier to kill than before the update?

@LeoBartlet @Bottom Hat in lieu of a refund you'll be waiting for some time for the little stuphz my Novice rank CMDR has "accumulated" but if you form an orderly queue by all means.

Instead of telling off people for being negative (thereby creating a double negative) you could learn a bit from Sally, who appears remarkably good at being positive. You could also thank the hundreds of players who have paid for odyssey and have patiently tested the various patches over several months, and are still willing to report them.

Oh I don't want it im just a concerned party that looks out for Bottoms interests and informs him of the opportunity to accumulate more stupfhz
Well, I get the tired joke and all... fwiw my post wasn't about quitting Elite per se, I'd still play Horizons as that mostly works.

Speaking of which - I wonder whether megaship looting was fixed there? Given I couldn't find it in the patch notes presumably not.
