Update 10 - Odyssey and Horizons

[bunker]

...while I'm here..

That paintjob was never supposed to be gold, it's just the name and yeah it's misleading. Orange is the correct colour, same as in Horizons.

Assuming you actually know what the paint job designer intended; then it serves everyone right that the midnight black paint job is grey now then? I'll just try my luck with support asking for my ARX back then.

It's also pretty bad to both put gold in the name and list in the gold category if it is supposed to be orange or yellow.

I know because I bought that skin a couple of years ago or so, in Horizons, for the same ship, with a thumbnail image on the store and in-game where it shows exactly like it's in your screenshot. You can ask for your Arx back but it's just a mispurchase based on a misunderstanding of the name of the skin, not what it should look like really.

The difference with MNB is that they look very different between Horizons and EDO (you could even argue the thumbnails don't look identical to Horizons either, but I bought them based on the Horizons in-game preview, so I knew what I was getting and I want that back); until patch 10 they weren't even matte which is one of their USPs.

How is it a misunderstanding if the name says gold AND it's listed in the Gold paint category?

I'm not trying to argue with you - I'm just saying that paintjob is not supposed to be a shiny golden colour, never has been. Why they called it gold I have no idea, and the category thing... well that's the intern-level store UI for you, it's just filtering the name, not the actual colour of the skin.

I buy items based on what they look like, the name is pretty irrelevant.

It's hard to "stay positive"... I dunno how u guys do it....
Each and every update, they try to fix some things but they break others.... in most cases completely unrelated.... a constant pursuit of what should be already done since odyssey launch...
in my personal opinion we shouldn't clap our hands and give thanks vigorously for the fixing of things that were literally broken by the fixing of other things. it doesn't make sense.... of course I'm grateful that something which is broken is now fixed! but this is not how a company should operate.... ppl come here saying that this is like a beta and some of u guys "crucify" them. Well it is!!! It was expected to be a finished game when we bought it.... not a pile of bugs that remind something we all have imagined this to be... this is my honest opinion, i don't mean to be rude or disrespect anyone, etc....
It's really hard "to comply" with 'this company' behaviour. And it's very sad, cause i love Elite as much as you do...

I find it easy to stay positive because im a positive (grumpy) old git and to be honest in game i very rarely come across to many bugs and certainly nothing i cant get around.
As long as im having fun (and i am) all is good.

I wonder when they are are going to fix the cargo issue with the SRV, they cant just ignore such a gamebreaking bug. Again I'm very appreciated that they are fixing some issues with the update. Guess i have to use the workaround for the time being.

They ignored the hostiles not turning red for a month which broke ship combat in CZ's, don't hold your breath for a quick fix

It's really good to see the updates coming, the product is getting better. However, I think I've encountered a regression with respect to surface mining. I just blasted an outcrop and picked up a raw material nugget, but the message remained stuck at "MATERIAL ACQUIRED" from that point on. Retracting the scoop removed the message, but it came back once I extended to scoop again. Furthermore, in this state I cannot pick up any more raw material nuggets! So, this is a major breaking of surface mining for me ...

An actual counter that tracks progress towards the unlocking requirement. Something that most other games feature for ages, but somehow EDO does not, made worse by the fact that "do X of Y" is widely used in this game to unlock stuff and you're never really sure where you're at unless you keep an eye on your journals via Inara (which I did for this particular engineer unlock), the fact that in-game text is pretty vague and can be read in more than one way doesn't exactly help either so a counter would be crystal clear, and you'd be able to see whether there's a bug with the game not counting missions also.

Not enough info here ?,

Referral requirements =/= Unlock requirements. You're showing the former, I was talking about the latter.

kaputt repariert
jetzt geht garnichts mehr

Here's another one, what else would you need to know, it literally tells you how to get referred, how to gain access and a progress bar towards getting access

There are lots of really great reasons to just keep playing Horizons rather than accept the constant game breaking bugs of Odyssey. I wonder if they will at some point just port over the legs, settlements and interiors to horizons? They can keep the rest of their “improvements” on odyssey.

Naprawdę dobrze widzieć nadchodzące aktualizacje, produkt jest coraz lepszy. Myślę jednak, że spotkałem się z regresem w odniesieniu do górnictwa odkrywkowego. Właśnie wysadziłem w powietrze wychodnię i podniosłem bryłkę surowca, ale od tego momentu wiadomość utknęła w „MATERIAŁ NABYTY”. Wycofanie miarki usunęło wiadomość, ale wróciło, gdy przedłużyłem, aby ponownie zgarnąć. Co więcej, w tym stanie nie mogę zebrać więcej bryłek surowca! Jest to dla mnie poważny przełom w górnictwie odkrywkowym...

Like SRV?

I see what you're trying to do.

Am not playing.

So we three alone in all the world can produce the finest orange at will?

Orange is the new Midnight Black.

You should hydrate more...

 

[bangermsuk]

so what colour is gold. hold it's it a orange colour mixed with a splash of yellow that is then mixed together and wallah

Can we please tone down the scavengers on support missions. Used to be some of those missions would get scavengers, and lately it's been every single mission. Getting tired of being bum rushed by them and I don't want to take the cheap route of firing ship rockets into the packs of scavengers.

I agree , This game is mountains ahead of other games , so much to do , so little time . it just needs some optimizing then it'll bounce back , I'm hoping for no mans sky return of this game starts out rough but 1 year later and its running like horizons (this is my hope) .
