I also get this pretty often now, mostly in conjunction with the energy save function of the shutdown button (not the regular energy safer), dunno the correct term in English. In former times it was called "hibernation". While it seems to work perfectly, after restarting the system ED runs fine but when shutting down the game now I get the black stream freeze very often, still need to check if not even always. Could be a hint for the devs why this happens so often as of late...
Patch Notes Update April Update - Patch 2
- Thread starter Will Flanagan
- Start date
Hello Darthtool,
We've been investigating the issue you raised earlier today with the team and require a little bit more information to understand the exact issue you're having. Is it possible for you (and any other Commanders experiencing this issue) to provide us some video footage of what you're experiencing?
Ultimately, this will help us understand when and where this is occurring. If you've previously made a Issue Tracker report about this, please also upload the footage there.
Material trader is unresponsive, yay! I'm stuck at the trading screen :/
Right, criticism does. And I'm aware, that FDev has contact to their fan/players base. That was the reason, I was wondering about the silence after the update/first patch. And I wanted to show, how this looked to me as a new player. Their is always space above (and around in the void).
Uh-huh - they never claimed to have fixed that, so .. they haven't fixed it https://issues.frontierstore.net/issue-detail/141
wrong literals is no unautomatable gameplay test and every single release is littered with them. just to cite an example. there is ample evidence (5 years of it) that frontier either doesn't test or does so with abysmal standards which amounts to no testing. also, if you had kept up with technology you would be surprised as to what can be automated today. and that's before you even mention specific problems that can only be reproduced in production (player behavior, concurrency or networking issues, obscure device incompatibilites, etc) which probably don't make the 0.28% of defects.
that's a quite thin skin, my apologies if needed and thanks for the correction. unlike others i usually only have to be told once (ymmv!
)
Nope it's Patch 2 on the April update.
<grumble> Why it can't just be 3.4.2 I don't know, kids these days </grumble>
Should I add some salt to the soup and say, that a developer, who relies on tests, is not a professional developer?wrong literals is no unautomatable gameplay test and every single release is littered with them. just to cite an example. there is ample evidence (5 years of it) that frontier either doesn't test or does so with abysmal standards which amounts to no testing. also, if you had kept up with technology you would be surprised as to what can be automated today. and that's before you even mention specific problems that can only be reproduced in production (player behavior, concurrency or networking issues, obscure device incompatibilites, etc) which probably don't make the 0.28% of defects.

Wow. So wrong it'sShould I add some salt to the soup and say, that a developer, who relies on tests, is not a professional developer?
- yes, triple facepalm.I didn't say, tests are not necessary...Wow. So wrong it's
I've just scanned about 30 systems with the FSS, no problems.
However FSS 'hotspots' with many signals (about 10 in the same screenspace) gives me a bit of lag - down to under 50 FPS using a 1060 GPU.
This is not a new issue for me though, can't remember exactly when it started or if it has always beem like that.

Yes, I agree. But in my opinion it has always been this way.
dunno, do you work at frontier?Should I add some salt to the soup and say, that a developer, who relies on tests, is not a professional developer?
it is impossible to develop anything useful without side effects: there are your tests. they've been around since the abacus, just in a chaotic, ad-hoc and primitive way.
since then we have learned that testing is an essential part of software engineering and have developed methods and technology to make it so. a today's professional developer is not only expected to test, but to write and design easily testable components and to automate and document the full circus of it. tests are no good if they are costly to run, so they absolutely have to be automated. the test plans, runs and reports are often an integral part of the delivery.
In this patch, we haven't made any additional adjustments to the (re)spawn rate of High Grade Emissions.
You're right, testing is an essential part. But not the main part. You can not test every input constellation or environment of a program. You simply can't. A developer has to foresee certain things and has to develop code, that is robust in many ways. Trial and error is not the way to do it. So, don't get me wrong, I emphasize only the fact, that you can build a stable software without tests but not without stable code.dunno, do you work at frontier?

Although a abacus might be possible
Unfortunately or fortunate maybe that i cannot reproduce the zoom bug again since relogging.
I reckon 'higher prices' is rather an understatement. Not $40, right, more like $4000 or $40000, right? So there you have your answer.
What kind of answer? That less copies*higher price is totally different to many copies*lower price? Or that a company, which sells products, which costs less than (lets' say) $40000 has more freedom in reacting to product issues?
I hope so! During the last couple of days I literally stumbled upon HGEs in many systems where I'm using the FSS (currently not explicitly searching for them). I've never seen so many HGEs as in the last couple of days. Also the amount of the more profane USS' seem to be excessive so that it starts to be distracting normal body scan. HGEs on the contrary ar usually about 3 per system for me - if they are present at all. Seems perfectly fine to me (
All latest scans were done in a radius about 280 Ly around Shinrarta Dezhra, if that matters. I didn't make notes cause I'm currently not collecting and wasn't aware that's a problem for some, sorry.
