Gameplay and Performance
Wounded time feels overtuned and could use some tweaking
Pathing feels weird sometimes with Grey Knights making weird unnecesary steps to reach some locations
Grey Knights with random ability points feel very frustrating. They should come with their ability points...
I recently discovered that the entrance can no longer be deleted in franchise mode, and I see that a lot of people have complained about that back in 2021, but I can't let this go, especially as patches have been released very recently.
I understand a lot of people complained about accidentally...
So, I love the idea of physical multi-crew, it's great fun the few times I've managed to get it working, and it's a great concept.
However, it's just too risky to use. Not because of any actual risk though, because of the infamous "Braben Tunnel."
Right now if someone ends up getting...

First of all, I am quite satisfied with Update 11. Sure, there are some bugs - but overall I think it's pretty good.
Here is a small feedback list from all the little things and issues I gathered:
The new modular environment on the carriers looks pretty neat, but it is gated behind high...
Since Community Manager @Bruce G asked someone else for their issues with exobiology (see the post here), I thought I'd write up mine too. So, here's my list of issues with exobiology, the problems in detail, and my proposed solutions to them.
1. Exobiology has no interaction with the rest of...
So the latest galnet where the emperor was found after being missing for a year, I feel like thaat could have been done better. One of the biggest complaints I've heard from some long time players is that most of these storylines you frontier people have worked so hard to write end up as just...
These are a few short ideas on how to expand Odyssey or an entire new DLC. (Keep in mind I am not a game developer and have no Idea how hard these would be to implement. I assume that its very hard to.)
1. Make Interiors for ships, with a resting area/crew quarters and armory behind the...
So I bought the European pack and I love it. The animals, the scenery pieces,... it's beautiful. But when it comes to the Olive tree, some things feel a bit off to me. I was really hyped for new foliage representing my region, but I was a bit disappointed by the Olive tree, and I hope to bring...
A few things I would like to see added/changed:
-An option to turn on seasonal changes for deciduous trees in maps with biomes where it makes sense (eg a Maple tree changing colors and going bare as the seasons change on a temperate map). This not being a default option makes sense, but it...
You should think about adding a feedback forum like Planet Zoo has so these type of posts don't get buried.
OK so with that out of the way, I do like the new game. I like the added management layers like the scientists and the MVU and the ranger stations. The scientists aren't like Planet Zoo...
It is well known that this suggestion forum is where suggestions go to die. My question is, ‘Why?’ How can a company expect to continue when they ignore so much of what their customers want? Sure Elite isn’t the only thing Frontier has, but it has the potential to be the greatest. If you look at...
Copying this from a thread I made on Reddit and adding some additional thoughts from my Discord and other CMDRs about the Plasma Assault Rifle, the Manticore Oppressor:
Thread Summary:
We're at Update 8 now in Odyssey and the Manticore Oppressor has got to be the most underwhelming weapon of...
I am playing the game a lot recently and there's just too many little things I stumble upon all the time. Small things that cause me to stop what I am doing and think about them. They may be smart design choices or bad ones, missing bits of information or convenient placement of it, things that...
The restriction to only Windows devices is frustrating, in my opinion there should be a wider range of platforms such as MAC OS, Xbox, etc. This would bring a wider range of players and obviously more purchases of the game.
The way it works right now, research is a one and done thing in franchise, amd not a thing at all in sandbox, which is a shame, because I love this feature.
I'd love the option to reset research so that we could get the challenge of unlocking limited items as we go back.
This used to be a...
With the current debacle with Odyssey launch, a lot of people have been talking negatively about the game and this is shown on the steam reviews for odyssey, where it's mostly negative and this is bad. I love the game and I bought it solely for the fact that we could walk on planets, but the...
Firstly I want to do a small introduction as I'm new(ish) to the forums. When not playing Elite Dangerous, CSGO or Cyberpunk I find myself spending 8-10 hours a day at my “job” in software development, design and user-experience.
I’ve spent the past 15 years in the field starting from asset and...
When playing in conflict zones, I find myself constantly pressing the crouch key to slide-to-crouch whilst sprinting similar to other modern FPS games out there.
I was thinking maybe it be possible to add this functionality in during a future patch and I think I've came up with a solution...
I've filed several issues since the launch of Odyssey, some are seemingly one-off events, but others are 100% reproducible and have comments from other users seeing the same behavior. So my question is, why are these 100% reproducible issues being marked as expired? It's not like confirmation...
Am I the only one that wishes we had map options that weren’t completely flat? Like a tropical map that had water and a lot of trees. Or a taiga/temperature map that had mountains or cliffs? Forests with areas of plains. One of my local zoos has a lot of hills and even some cliffs that they had...
Mats gathering for ship engineering is empirically disliked by many. It is a known fact about Elite.
With on-foot engineering, it was a great opportunity to design something better from scratch.
Unfortunately, the current state is not good. Below is feedback and suggestions.
These are all...
Most of the bio signals are sticky uppy things, sometimes easy to spot glowing sticky uppy things, however bacterial aren't, so they they are harder to spot.
This means gameplay wise I'm currently:
Try and scan using the hand held scanner thing
The scan is really close range, so nothing is...
Hello everyone,
I really hope that someone from Frontier will actually read this.
I´ve spent many hours in Odyssey already, so I consider my feedback valuable. I also have multiple questions that could be considered feedback as well (since its not clear to me). Note that I like Odyssey even if...
I've got some feedback for the new keybindings and its acompanying UI and I don't specifically expect FDEV to open a post for that part of the UI so I figured I'd make my own.
I would love to know what you think of them and what other feedback you might have. Perhaps we can turn this into a bit...
I've been playing Odyssey through alpha and since launch and I think I've played it enough to have some clear ideas on it. As of now, I've tested every on foot mission type.
I will share my takes on scavenging, exploring and combat with a focus on weapons.
I will not provide...
Now that Odyssey is out I can get to grips with engineering, without losing any progress.
Bugs:
The "6 power up" mission engineer isn't unlocking for me.
The "10 CZ" engineer isn't unlocking for me.
I'll add to the bug tracker for those.
When you are trying to trade mats at the bar tender...
So overall I've been enjoying Odyssey, though I've not gotten to play it as much as I want and plan to put some more time into it here in the near future.
I have some feedback and suggestions. Most of the major issues already have many a thread/discussion about them so I'll focus on some...
I found this comment on YouTube. It reads:
"I'm glad they're at least feigning an attempt to fix things, but there's a major problem I have. The problem is that there was ZERO implementation of ship interiors. This isn't good for players or FDEV. The thing is, we play for immersion more than...
Mostly I am happy with the changes accept for the bugs. Well I hope their just bugs.
1. Routing straight to a station. Seriously this should be a priory fix or change. Now you have to go to bookmarks, then bookmark management, then station then you can route straight to station, then back...
@David Braben , @Kay Ross , @Bruce G , @sallymorganmoore ,
I've watched a bunch of vids about odyssey/horizons comparsion over last week and yeah...
We have triple up game size (from ~25Gb to ~75)
We have triple down performance
And we have this in the end:

I'm relatively new to ED (been at it since April), and decided on Odyssey's release - partly due to the unearned engineer invite bug, partly due to breaking my own sense of progression by doing a website driven road to riches in a Hauler to get an AspX (never found the meta game appealing) - to...
This appears to not be possible with the current UI.
If you want to change the suit that a given loadout uses you're forced to make an entire new loadout from scratch.
You might be using, say, a Dominator Grade 2 without mods and then find a great Dominator Grade 3, with 2 pre-fitted mods, for...
The #1 thing I do at my ship with SRV is board ship. Which is easy to access in the UI. This is fine.
The #2 thing is drop off my whopping TWO units of cargo that the SRV can carry. This requires:
opening screen 4
tabbing to inventory (pressing Q/E multiple times)
then going through the...
Hello! Since "BETA-testing" of ED: Odyssey have started yesterday (With a worldwide server crush. :ROFLMAO: ) Lets start helping FDev and write down all opinions and suggestions about current version of the Expansion, so that our Console-playing brethren will not need to suffer on...
The new UI is dissapointing. There was nothing wrong with the old one, it just worked!
In the new UI we can't see the rank progression percentage, we have to guess how much we progressed by looking if the bar moved.. it was soo handy to see the actual percentage!
The outfitting.. oh god what...
Hello! My name is Shalefoot, and I am starting this thread to be a constructive and civil discussion involving the Spotted Hyena within Planet Zoo!
(Reposted and redirected here from the Steam "Discussions" thread as per request — slight revisions made).
I absolutely love hyenas and they are...
Well, I have to be honest that Malayan Tapir would need to get a redesign. Why? Let's me to show you guys.
Malayan Tapir have thicker and curve snout than other tapirs, and their ears are bigger too. Planet zoo's Malayan Tapir doesn't looks kind right, it looked like they probably used their...
Making a sub-folder in the UserMedia should give the player the option to organize Media-files. But it does not.
The folder is going to be cluttered really fast.
My suggestion is to include sub-folders in the UserMedia folder for easy organization.
In a near future update. Could we please have the ability to access the experimental effects from the remote workshops? It’s just incredibly tedious having to fly back to the engineers to add effects. Especially when my goal is to get as far from the bubble as possible with my new Anaconda.
