News 2.3 Dev Update

[zackmck]

I have no idea about all the legal stuff but do they really need to pay royalties for a guy roaring into a mic?
Would be cool if FDEV collaborates with the guys at HCS and do all the things in-game with corresponding character models sitting next to your CMDR. ASP Explorer sucks then though.
BTW. They even contracted the original voice actress of ED's computer.

Yeah, on top of the fees they charge to show up and record it usually, depends on the contract.

Does this update also apply to Xbox 1 Version of the game?

So a couple of questions that I did not see in the notes first can we play mulitcrew with friends on private servers "private group" & will we have the option of hiring npc crew if we so desire ? Thanks for any info in regards.

Consensus of opinion so far on this thread seems to have ruled out the possibility of NPC's filling the same roles as instantly teleported magical unicorn players. Despite reading all of it, there doesn't appear to be a mention of private groups.

There's a slim chance FDev may rethink some, or all of this position before release:

Please note that before now and release, some details may still change, as we’re currently in the thick of implementing this feature!

Sounds awesome! I'm excited to add a little customization to myself. Also, SPACE LEGS

 

[CMDR Joseph Marsh]

Looking good so far!

I would join everyone in the beta.. but I didn't buy Horizons beta access.. so no beta-testing for me.

(and yes I just registered... hello all!)

Of course.

About the commander creator, what about the ones like me, who doesn't want to restart the game for create a commander???
I mean, it's gonna be a provisional menu for this creation or it's obligatory to start a new adventure???

There is no mention of restarting a commander to get our avatar.

 

[sebinator]

The question is, what if a friend who doesn't have horizon join my ship
And then I decide to land on a planet..
What will happen ?

Of course we won't have to start from scratch ...

If they do not have Horizons how are they going to join your ship?

 

[BigF]

If not they'll be the one floating in orbit while your prospecting planetside.

The multicrew feature will not be implemented in the basic game ?

 

[Whitehair]

It's a Horizon release (2.3) - I can't see any reason why people who haven't bought Horizons would have access to it.

 

[DoctorDanny]

No, it's a part of Horizons.

SPACE LEGS IS NOT IN 2.3

Neither in 3.x for that matter. Who brought up this space legs thing to surface recently? It is confirmed that it won`t be in 3.x, meaning not in 2017 and it is also said that it is not a priority feature.
