Patch Notes Update 2.3 The Commanders Beta - Changelog

[CMDR Cosmic Spacehead]

I knew multicrew was going to cause issues.

Have fun with that one FD! Lol

But, my god, excellent work on the rest of the beta patch notes!

So. Much. Stuff! Too much to even read.
Looking forward to the final release. Or maybe the release of beta for sale.

Again, well done!

Any ideas how big the beta update is?
If it's too large, I can't but it, or beta will be over by the time my carrier pigeons fly backwards and forwards with the data.
That said, if I sent a carrier pigeon with a 32gb memory stick to the nearest person with beta to copy it, and return it, it would be 100s of times faster than my internet. Lol
I fact, so would the post.
Or walking to FDs HQ.
Or dial up.
I need new internet.

Addition of Fishers rest plus "Red Spider Nebula is now red" are my favourites XD.

Personally multi-crew was the thing I was least excited about for this Beta so not bothered about it being delayed!

Great! 20 word pages indeed!

 

[peteuplink]

Woah! That's a heck of a change log!

Well done, FDev!

Have we heard if we will be able to keep the Holo-Me we create in Beta, or will it get wiped? Don't want to spend 3 hours getting it just right if there's no way to keep it.

 

[Gully Foyle]

Great list of non-headline additions

According to you anyways eh

Holo me, the new improved cam and a large changlog look pretty headliney.
They released the beta sans multicrew for now and CMDRs are going nuts with glee

adding IPv6 will fix alot of problems. Its intuitive network abilities are the future of IP traffic.

you're the second after Maddog to ask.
I don't think they will give us that option. maybe for a dollar.
Get thyself to suggestion thread forthwith

Hi Devs having a major problem downloading, I click update in the launcher and a message pops up that says: Failed to read from response stream Network connection closed?

Oh no after setting it for alternative downloads I am 1m from finishing and it happening again Failed to read from response stream network connection closed

 

[Patrick_68000]

Changelog very impressive ! Congratulations Frontier. +1

 

[Cadw]

* Added Milky eye type - huh?

I guess this is a result of the first live stream, with the scar through the eye!

 

[Bertrand Du Guesclin]

"Fix for Federal Dropship paintjobs covering the vehicle bay"

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS

It might seem like a small change, but this had been annoying me since the launch of Horizon.
Just for this change, I'm happy with the patch

Now I'm off to read the rest of it.

Hello Frontier,
how can i get access to the Beta Severs, if i didnt back you on Kickstarter and didnt buy an upgrade yet. will there be a way? i am waiting for this since the announcment and i hope i can somehow enter the Beta . :3

Sincerly
Cmdr. Dana Xue

 

[Retrograde]

Awesome!

My only request would be to increase the number of asteroid bases from 32 to 100+. They would still be fairly rare, but you'd have a chance of seeing one just by bumbling around the bubble.

I hate having to search online to find some POI - it feels like cheating. (And in the same vein, how about placing a few more of those partially built stations around the bubble. The models are gorgeous, but they're so rare.)

Now only another 6 hours of downloading...

 

[HailVectron]

Nooooh, 3 mission limit on planetary scans! I've only just found Quince tho! Please release 2.3 on xbox around Nov/Dec time pls

Makin' it rain!

Ok, it's Beta-money. Which is, technically, one step down from monopoloy money, but still....

 

[Privata]

I read all this and its all very impressive , looking forward to it all
But I lost it at ''Space scenarios can now have localised fog'' that is amazing !

 

[CmdrKull]

All ship explosive effects improved

This makes me happy. And to test it, I get to blow something up, which also makes me happy!

 

[Uthxis]

Wow!! Will definitely spend my lunch reading this. Can't wait to try this out tonight, the day will be long!!

Many thanks Frontier for your hard work and patience with the community
