Not seeing any passenger missions now, the ones which you transport x amount of people.

Did they fix belugas hijacking the landing pads?

 

[Caramel Clown]

Did I miss a fix for missions that pay few thousands of credits for 10k LY trip, and trillions for one hop route?

Greetings commanders,

Hopefully your recent endeavors in Elite have been.....eventful and mysterious! We are taking the Elite servers down at 8PM UK / 3PM East US time for a quick update.

The downtime should last no more than 15 minutes - if not, i will be back here updating this thread with a status update.

Below are the patch notes...



Outfitting
Fix for a hull reinforcement package incorrectly providing caustic resistance


Ships
Beluga Liner
Fixed some incorrect preview thumbnails and names for the Beluga Expedition Paint Jobs


Stability Fixes
Fixed an issue that was causing players to disconnect when attempting to load into game near a station

Anything on the oculus update yet?

Restart your patcher client, your patcher client might've polled the servers and got a malformed file as it was being sync'd in.

Not currently, sorry.

Well I can confirm that this is a NO. It still says 'Invalid Credentials'.

Time for another strike.

Launcher won't open for me at all - edlaunch.exe appears in task manager but nothing happens. I've launched the game 6 or 7 times tonight before this update without a problem. Is it trying to communicate with the servers?

ETA on PA fix? It's almost impossible to dodge them and really throws off the visual feedback.

When you fix a broken visual FX for Plasma Guns?

Wow.. that looks bad. :/

Really want to hear a Frontier comment, is this horrible new PA graphic a bug or intentional?

anyone else notice Pilots Federation faction is missing from Jameson Memorial even though it's still the controlling faction?

 

[-JAFO-]

Cant update launcher is doing same thing again locks up. then says i have a Quota issue. Um I dont have Quota enabled. PC non steam. LOL figured id do the main game not thru Steam due to issues with steam and updates with other games in the past. Seems Steam is the better way to go for this game! SAD PANDA FACE!

Thanks for the quick update, appreciate you guys working late to do this.

It's a superpower now.

Except they were fine before the update. Stations that had 30-50k supply on weekends in 2.3 now have 20 supply on weekdays in 2.4.

Edit: And it wasn't fixed. Lovely

That recent (pre-update) behaviour is the weird thing though, not what you're describing.

I noticed it at the last two trade CGs, the supply at the stations closest to the CG station was something like 300k and it never dropped during the whole CG. Back when I started doing CGs, that would have gone within a couple of hours tops at a weekend with people having to constantly find new sources of supply. It was far more realistic because a station couldn't just ramp up the amount of goods it can supply that fast - I'd assumed the 'new' behaviour where the supply never dropped was either a bug, or basically FDev just making CGs easy mode.

Still no oculus update.. what a joke :/

 

[Tiayviel]

Not currently, sorry.

Any ETA? Debating sleep but then again want to get to Gnosis on time..
