Calling for more content at the current state of the game is absurd. This brings potential sources of error back into the game. I would prefer to focus on troubleshooting first. There's more than enough of that.
Still no shutdown field neutralizer hotkey?
We need new planet gen badly.
@sallymorganmoore I have a question of why isnt't your updating process scheduled every week. You can deploy minor fixes every week and when major issue is resolved you just notify ppl that on next deploy another major issue is fixed. I do believe you'll get much better response from the compunity this way and also I think you need to make community test teams before patch is released. By teams I mean . 1st team test SRV game play (maybe spit ppl to test separate SRV gameplay features) , 2nd team test settlement missions type 1, 3rd team test settlement mission type 2 etc etc ... The bugs I see are so obvious that it's kind of hard to imagine how did this slip through QA tests. You have loads and loads of community players that play this game non-stop and are dedicated to same cause and would love to participate and help. I know I would use ppl to help things get through better testing before release if I was the one leading QA. If I hadn't been busy with my own big projects I would hapilly help you make this thing better. This is just my humble opinion from experiences working on big sfotware projects ...

I can confirm i have this as well - did you log an issue tracker for it ? @Parduz ??
Because long ago the question was asked of players whether they wanted many small frequent updates or larger and more spaced out updates and the general consensus at the time was for larger and more spread out updates.This of course doesn't refer to hotfixes for serious bugs and things like that which should happen quickly.
But I don't think everyone was aware at the time that the productive environment would be used as a test environment.
Nope, i hate that place
Also, the game crashed 2 mins later, after takeoff while switching to SC, so i gave up entirely and decided to wait at least update 10.1.
- An issue when running with the cutting tool was fixed. Although, our mothers still advise against it - now that was funny!
thank you for your explanation ... although it looks like bad decision after all
Really?
The issue can be voted for here: https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/45792
It hasn’t yet been acknowledged by the Devs but more votes should help.
While you’re looking at size problems with the holo - would you care to add a Confirmation to the small landing pad at settlements looking too small?
Well, my boss won't allow me to release to our customers patches X.1 after patches X(.0) more than a couple of time, so i was'nt expecting to be a patch tester (go figure to be beta tester for something i bought as a finished product).
So, while I may understand that EDO got F.U.B.A.R. for whatever reason, why the patches (or "updates") are clearly not tested before release is astonishing, to me.

Bravo for your boss! Which games studio do you work with, again?
No games. We build "smart sensors" for automation machinery.
It probably depends on the industry.
Those who value customer satisfaction strive to maintain a good standard of quality.
Is that somehow unclear?
OK, so in a pretty "mission critical" environment, where people's live may be endangered if you mess up?
Top dog, your boss!
If a game isn't 'bug free' nobody is likely to be killed because of it (apart from the odd person who may expire due to apoplexy, of course, as they have lost any perspective over what is important) but a bug or two may be inconvenient in meaning a work around has to be found, or a feature ignored until it is fixed. No big deal, really!
EDO has had issues since launch, it isn't likely to recover in the forseeable future going by the new issues introduced with each fix. But, it isn't important, it is just an expansion to a piece of entertainment software. If Frontier really cannot get it working as intended, it should be removed form the game and purchasers refunded, but, sadly, that is unlikely to occur.
Unclear? No, not at all, old chap(ess)...
As you said, it depends on the industry, and the gaming industry is notorious for poor quality products and customer support. There may be exceptions, but generally, it is an industry built on fantasy and hype.
Now if Frontier were selling you coffee & cookies, the story might be different.
