Patch Notes Update 2.4 The Return - Update 2.4.02 - Downtime scheduled

[stormyuk]

Um, how is it that we can share a BGS and servers, yet this "Downtime" doesn't affect PS4 or Xbox users?

I wondered that too!

 

[Redan]

I wonder if hatch breakers are going to be fixed, or if them passing through shields is a feature.

This balance change was done in 2.3 iirc.

Working as intended.

Fingers crossed for Plasma VFX and SCB sound fixes.

Different server sub-sets and transmission of BGS influencing occurrences during the daily "tick"?

Hooray for everything. \o/

I was literally a hair's breadth from touchtown when the servers died. Landing gear kicking up dust on the pad. Welp, guess I'll start like 50 klicks away when the server comes back.

Great, we do need the changelog then, players already know everything

Passing through shields is a feature iirc. Hatch Breakers are low velocity and can slip through (use point defence).

Cheers for the update on the update, and for the update .. which will be updated. o7

 

[Adam Jay]

Pretty sure that's the only thing this patch is going to address

[Duckfat]

Dang, I knew I should have stayed up a little longer last night making all the extra cash I could.

 

[Scottykad]

Do we reply without reading posts now or something?

Speaking of reading read post 12.

passing through shields is a feature

 

[Ashnak]

Hmmmm....

Grumble.....

Can't do a blasted thing about it, though.

It's a rainy holiday today over here, and I just sat down to give my new iCourier some TLC at a few Engineer bases when I got the 5 minute warning. So I pulled off at the nearest station - and had to smile:

Spoiler

Guess I got some time now to finally have a go at Lone Echo.

Speaking of reading read post 17.

is there a problem with my post scot?

 

[ZiggyGG]

I'm expecting:

Added new content
- Added Type 10 Defender to be bought on various stations

 

[J3DI]

In 2.4 we increased the frequency of mining missions to be around 90% of those available on the board.
This micro patch will ensure that the frequency of mining missions will be at least 99%.
You WILL go mining!

Oh, and by the way, all that money you made at Rhea is getting clawed back! ( insert evil chuckle sound here )

 

[Kimosabe_X]

Hopefully this addresses the mission board only partial loading issue, too ?



P.S.: Oh and... damn... we have a holiday in Germany, so good CG playtime wasted... ;-/

 

[Vardaugas]

I just landed at the barnacle forest. I hope I won't log in to a fully grown (and operational) battle station.

 

[olklei]

"the console versions of the game will not be affected by this downtime."
Now we have the proof.
1. FDEV is infiltrated by thargoids.
2. thargoids play on xbox.

don't be surprised if you wake up with a thargoid cmdr right next to you in multicrew in 90 minutes!

ihope they will patch the missions back to profitable... now they are useless for me and i ignore them. before the nerf game makes fun again. now not worth to Play again. 1 mill each heat for a 300k ls Station is ok in my eyes. 56 mill for 21 heats was gamebreaking. but common nerf everything to useless is stupid fd. u allways make the same mistakes again and again. sad to see.
