Firstly, the Anaconda is not ugly. Secondly, the DBX and a few other smaller ships can have a jump range that comes very close to the Anaconda anyway. I wouldn't be opposed to having more ships, but in my opinion the current diversity (and some of the niches certain ships occupy) is one of the things where this game actually excels.
Elite Dangerous: Odyssey | Update 9 Notes
- Thread starter sallymorganmoore
- Start date
Beauty lies in the eye of the beholder... I obviously wanted to sound provocative with the conda thing
Either you love or you hate it.The DBX is, without a doubt, my absolute favorite for traveling within the bubble... but whatever else you want to do with it... you HAVE to make sacrifices. And that goes for nearly EVERY ship except the ones with massive amounts of space for modules. The number of modules is what makes a ship better/more versatile/more useful (except PVP). Maybe I'm doing it wrong?
Where are the Conda's restrictions?Except, if you’re trying to use a multi limpet controller, apparently.
So you're saying the 2T Scarab is now a limited edition model?
Reads further into the thread... .ahhh

Overall performance and smoothness of play visibly improved (not counting reported bugs). Nice new things were released, but those needs some changes/tweaking to be really useful for players. Update 9 so far feels positively, but it need tuning to be really a good one.
What are "they"? The targoids' mothers?
Huh, for me at least the Scarab now sounds really high pitched and whiny with drive assist off.
Since Update 9 I have this issue every time I start the game:
Materials in guardian structures from sentinels or orb, urn... are hanging high in the air
Would be nice if some of you could confirm this and vote for it:

Here's a suggestion. How about you just say what limpets a particular multi limpet controller can programme instead of the current "capable of deploying limpet types suitable for -----" . For gods sake we are elite pilots in the far future, this is a sim not some guess what we mean game.
Well, I know that you all do the best that you can.
If it takes a little while I'm sure we can push the end date out to make it fair on everyone. Its not like I'll be in a fit state to watch organic scanning videos on new year's day
Well overall I’m happy with the update. The new SRV is awesome. Drives like a dream and sounds great. The weapons leave a lot to be desired against ground targets though and it’s missiles are completely useless for anything other than skimmers and yeeting npc’s a kilometer or two into the air.
The introduction of seat selection when boarding srv’s and ships is amazing! As well as the scorpion hanging under the ship until the driver either moves it or someone else boards.
the multi limpet controllers are better than I anticipated. I’m still bitter that only 6 ships in the entire game can use the Universal controller though. As such I’d still like to see a class 5 ULC added with stats inline with the class 3 MLC performance. Over all I also feel that both the ULC & MLC consume far too little power for their size. A 3A hatch breaker uses more power than a 3F multi limpet controller that can hatch break, collect and recon; as an example.
I do a bit of rambling and reacting to the new limpets here:

I’d really like to see the ULC added into the class 5 slot; again with more weight and power consumption but otherwise identical performance to the class 3 operations controller.
I’ll also state that the collectors from operations and universal controllers are way better than the regular controllers due to a speed increase from 200ms to 500ms and a range increase. As such I think all the existing limpets need to have a pass done on their stats to guarantee they are better in every way to their equal or lesser sized MLC’s/ULC’s.
A 7a collector for example can sport 4 collectors at 200ms with a 720s Expedia toon time. A 7a ULC can deploy 8 collectors with 500ms speed and an infinite deployment time making it single handedly THE large ship meta for mining. While I think this is a good think the ^a needs to be buffed as does the 5A which is capable of one less limpet at 3 than any of the MLC’s and at a slower speed of 200ms vs the 500ms of say the operations controllers.
note: nerfing the limpet speed on operations and universal controllers is not the answer as it will break hatch breaker ability; which is why they have that speed in the first place.
so please, buff the regular limpets to be in line with the new ones as superior task focused tools and add a class 5 ULC, pretty please!

I guess seeing as you took the time to pronounce it, that makes "ah-cue-lay-uhs" the official pronunciation <grin>

It’s been a long road, looking forward to having a drive about in a Scorpion.It finally happened - we now have twice the amount of SRVs available in the game
Hoping a Dev reads this Multiple issues with with Horizons crashing since the update. So far I’ve discovered:
Game crashes when trying to access stored modules. This is for all stations and fleet carriers.
Game crashes when a guardian sentinel spawns.
Home page on the right hand side info panel does not update in real time.
This is on Xbox platform but I believe other platforms are affected in the same manner. PLEASE FIX ASAP AS GAME IS ALMOST UNPLAYABLE!!!!

After you complete a ground CZ, the dogfighting ships above don't disperse any more and when you recall your ship they dogpile it. Thankfully using my warship and not my squishy ground OPs one. Got a nice lightshow when running to it at least (please make ships recall closer to the base):

Wow that was another huge wall of patches, updates, fixes, new srv and list of known issues.
Lets eee how long till the update 9 hotfix 1 or the likes. I really hope is not but with the new limpets and srv I think that will be the case once servers go back online.
Overall nice update indeed
