did it take long to get the update (I know internet depending). I kicked mine off 10 mins ago but have to get back to work in 10 mins.. and I need my bandwidth

Its 4gb, took my internet about 20 minutes.

So:
The sitting is smooth
My ship UI and cockpit lights look very low res (on the high preset) everything else looks as it did before. Edit apparently "Upscaling is now on by default with all presets, even ultra. You have to make a custom preset to turn it off."
Once the bar was added, the bartender did appear to have the material trading function expected, but I couldn't figure out how to sell stuff, it said 0 stock for things I have so I'll have to investigate that in more detail once I have time
And, most trivial of all, there's a new, much more limited pool of appearances for the crew. It has absolutely no bearing on gameplay but it's spoiled U11 for me nonetheless. My Deck officer had different appearances in carrier management and the chat system, and I'd been looking forward to seeing what she actually looked like, but she's been replaced by a stranger with the same name. A stranger who's clones have replaced three other members of the crew. The rest of the crew have at least been replaced with different strangers.

Oh well, they've been with me for almost two years exactly now, I guess we were due a relief crew, replacements all round.

I can't get off the ship to the fleet carrier, but fps is great, 90. Exit to the desktop helped

Hi All :)

More content to enjoy. 😝

Nah, it's because everybody is jumping their carriers at the moment and the servers have a harder time to keep up.

🤔 Guess I'll leave a Carrier purchase for now, noticed the undocking computer throwing a wobbly as well, got a 500 cr fine for blocking the exit o_O
I changed to manual undocking as the computer seemed to be a bit confused! ....seems to be okay now though.
I also couldn't access the missions menu (unable to access the server), so probably all this was likely due to server overload. 😒

Jack :)

Just as I expected the amount of credits to activate is ridiculous. The carriers are ships the ships are supposed to have VR, no VR. . FD did have the good sense not to force you to activate anything and I don't. For me this turned out to be a big nothing burger. I will go watch the carrier jump a time or two and that will be the end of that. I hope the NPCs don't die of loneliness because they won't see very much of me.

When I sit to commanders seat how do I use controlling panel? I don't see any options. (Pressing ESC, wasd or space bar seems to exit the seat).

When FD launched ODY you said that VR would not be there at launch. "NOT AT LAUNCH" to me implies that it will at a later date. You no longer have consoles to worry about, when might we expect VR in ODY? Or at least a version of ODY that is in VR. I will Gladly pay extra for a VR ODY version. So can we get on with VR in one form or another?
If you keep chipping stuff off the game and not putting things in that have been implied the game may cease to exist in a playable form.

it is true that is what they said and if that is genuinely the only post you saw on it then I sympathise with you. however FD then clarified multiple times after that they no longer thought VR in ED was a priority and said to assume there would be no VR in ED:O at all.

eventually they changed again and said the VR which is in ED:H would stay in ED:O but there would be no VR for the on foot stuff aside from a cinema style screen at least at launch, but maybe never.. which is where we are now.

FD say a lot of things not at launch and I have assumed that means never. a couple of times I have been pleasantly surprised.

btw PSVR was also not at launch iirc. look how that turned out

Ed needs to keep in mind that for everything they chip off ED they are also chipping off customers. They should keep that in mind.

They confirmed after launch that there's no plans for new VR development.
