Beta 1.1 comments for non beta players

No, you are not under a 15 second timer. If you exit right after the interdiction ends, you can leave the game instantly. The 15 second timer only comes when you're "in combat".

Then FD have got it wrong for that specific case, and people using that trick are using an exploit.

Mind you, FD have already said that it was not their intent to allow submission to give you a means of easy escape, and that they intend to fix it.

I personally don't mind the RES nerf, will be nice for miners who actually want to mine for a change. As long as Bounty farmers get something else to farm.

I'd personally like to see Bounty Hunting become a thing, though.


Miners have an entire ring system to mine. No need to go to a Resource Extraction Site to mine, just simply drop out of warp at any place within the ring.
 
I'm all excited for the release of 1.1, but with that being said, if you are testing, please post picture using the spoiler feature. I can't speak for everyone, but for me personally, I want to make these new discoveries for myself and not click in this forum to see pics of planets with lights etc. now.

Thank you.
:eek:

I second this motion but it appears the cat is already out of the bag ..
Perhaps somebody can start a new thread for V1.1 beta screen captures, and leave this thread for discussion only ?


/EDIT After all, 'Anticipation is the spice of life'

/EDIT /EDIT
Actually on reflection that should be 'Variety is the spice of life"
Oh well. 9/10 for effort.
Anticipation is up there high on the list of ingredients though !

bounty hunting in RES nerfed?!!?
how!??!

it is already hard enough to make money with combat! if this is true and combat did not received a buff but a nerf, ED is starting to lose me
its already too much of a grind-fest

together with the overdone python nerf, the next patch is nothing im hyped about anymore......
i will sell my crap python and go exploring in an asp.....

Is the beta 1.1 a test server so to speak so they can tweak before actual release? That's how I've seen it done and if done right, the beta should reveal if this hurts combat $(+ other stuff) and they can fix it before actual release in a couple weeks. If not, I don't understand the (update)beta phase...?
 
From the Beta 1.1 Patch Notes:

- Interdiction can be a Crime

And Michael's explaination:





This should change a few player dynamics. :)

Hope that with this change they also made the bounties amounts sticky in the sense that once I have Kill Warrant Scanned someone, I will see the bounty for some time after that (maybe an hour?). At the moment it disappears after any sort of jump / instance change.
 
You can thank me for this. ;)
Not that it was needed, but thanks i guess for making less people create whine threads about it from now on. :D It was however realistic to get spanked for hitting an authority ship (and somehow i avoided it in every fight).

Lots of stuff looking good though. Cheers FD.
 
i'm most disappointed about the lack of a submit,boost fix. and no cobra vs type 6 mass lock fix.

You may want to read up on real pirates in the Spanish Main circa 1650-1750....and then get back to us about that:)>

Considering this game isn't set in The Spanish Main, and is set during the year 3300, i don't see how that is relevant.

Real pirates don't pay off their bounties anyways, so what are you complaining about?

I currently dont pay off my bounty, so it doesn't effect me. However, I'm complaining because its a completely pointless change that is moving the game balance in the wrong direction. Before you ask, a small step in the wrong direction is still going the wrong way.

I hope so. Every time I am interdicted I shoot first and ask questions second. If they want to damage my hull and harass me, they better be ready because I have a short fuse when someone damages my ride.
 
I've been reading the beta forum and I'm starting to wish I didn't. Yeesh. Let's just say my hopes in frontier pulling a rabbit out of the hat and suddenly knowing what the hell they're doing fade more every day. The hope is still there but... c'mon guys throw us a bone here.
 
Yeah, I wish, its still the same game it has been far as I can tell, nothing 'changed' except bugs and tweaks. With new bugs, but no 'real' changes. Read the Patch notes. Lights on Planets.
EDIT: tbh I only played a couple hours, so maybe something is different.
