Another patch with "mysterious and exciting things"... Sounds like really boring content for me as usually. :(

When player factions will be in game finally, not only custom names for NPC factions?

my understanding from back in kickstarter and dev diaries that what you are hoping for, more of a guild type thing (am i right, just guessing really) is not really something FD are interested in for elite. They didnt rule it out EVER, but i think is very low down on the list of priorities
 
"You'll need to get this updated patcher before you will be able to download the update."

Ummm...I opened my launcher to the expected message of needing to update. Clicked yes expecting everything to be hunkee doree, but nope.
Nothing happened.
E: D is white listed by my virus pro so I have no idea why the launcher started up, then just fizzled out downloading nothing.

 
No they're not. Factions are just on forums and in game we have only custom names for NPC factions. Players doesn't belong to any faction, besides Power Play. Did you play any mmo game? If yes, then you should know how it should look like...

AFAIK, that is not going to happen. I don't believe the game will be getting guilds anytime soon. Factions may be updated in the future so that you can actually join one, but I very much doubt that you will get full control over any.
 
No, that's just what you think player factions should be.
Player Factions in ED are not the same as PF's in other games. PF's in ED are not major factions (ala PP).
PF's are in the game; whether you choose to see them as such is a completely unrelated thing.

Nice patch notes.
Nothing majorly "wow" .. but lots of nice updates.

What are you talking about? How can I know from which player faction is player I'm shooting to, genius huh? Tell me HOW?! Every NPC is in "not major" faction... players not.

How does the launcher update? I just get the single player combat training launcher and no message to update. That is with the steam version....

I would definitely appreciate the ability to join minor factions, even just NPC ones. Would be nice when flying about to see various CMDRs and their factions. You'd be able to see who joined such and such Empire Party, or Independants, or Mafia, etc.
