Beta 1.1 comments for non beta players

More "oversight" than bug. On the plus side, I tried this and bought an Orca (a ship I would never otherwise spend 48M on) and tested it. Very white cabin with yellow lighting. Felt like driving an electric coach. Got 1km from station and was deliberately rammed by player in T9, so back to Sidewinder. Glad I skipped that ship in the "real" game.

I suspect the devs will either make all internals have a purchase and resale of 100cr making the exploit worthless for the week of the beta, but even if they don't, does it really matter? The savegames here will be wiped in seven days anyway.

From a CMDR on Twitter I chat with: "Buy T9, sell internals, buy Sidey and store T9, buy another T9, sell internals, buy Sidey and store T9, buy another T9, sell......."

It's like one step forward, two LY back with the Dev team these days.

You sure this is not merely the result of the T9 being so cheap right now? The lowered price will not be included in the release version - it is meant to help in testing.

Because in 1.1 you will never see a big ship in your hanger and possibly never afford the upgrades you want for your viper. That is unless you "live" in your gaming seat in front of ED. The game is so nerfed. No money to be made anywhere now. No missions still. In fact I believe there are less missions available. Trade routes you are used to are gone. And at the same time they seem to have reduced what you can make in the market. And to add to it, bounty hunting is lower also. I haven't gotten that far yet in 1.1 and all of this already. Nothing seems to be added to the game at all accept a bunch of fixes and tweaks that should have been there on launch. I do have to say the sound is better. But oh well I can sit and listen to new sounds all night long instead of playing new content that was supposed to be in it. Who the hell cares about community goals (2 of them and incredibly boring at that) that you can't even see what you personally have put into it. No rep fixes or content that pulls the players in. I want to have fun in this game still, but not adding real mission mechanics and new content for gameplay is killing this for me. As much as I want to keep playing. When they update to 1.1 If it stays like this. I'm afraid We are going to loose a ton more cmdrs. FD stop nerfing it. You are killing your game. I don't have endless time grinding to get enough credits to by a new fsd drive. And I would really like to be flying a python by the end of the summer. But most of all I just want something to do In-Game (((MISSIONS Real ones))) 9 or 10 generic ones does not cut it.

Glad others are realizing it too!

1.1 python changes make it useless 1.1 python changes make it useless

so the python now turns as slow as an anaconda, cant catch or kill anything.

My python is worth 220 million, and it can now be out turned by a viper that is just lateral thrusting. This is unacceptable. This means the python has no combat roll whatsoever in the current state of the game.

im ok for a small speed nerf ~ 20 knots but it needs its old manouverability or it cant compete in combat with fixed weaponry, which means it cant compete at all.

Hmm, something several times the mass and volume of a cobra no longer rotates as quickly as one? Boo hoo.

Not just gonna come in here to crap on you though, I'd say the python is going to get another balance pass because they cut it a little bit too low, but this is only the first day of the 1.1 beta. The fact they didn't include it as one of the ships that's discounted for testing has left me worried though. Another player said they might be saving focusing on testing that for another day while they work on the priority tasks, but I don't know if the picture's really coming together that way.

Either way we have to wait and see what the final build ends up like.

Last time drones appeared in Patch notes it referred to Limpets, which are stored in the cargo back and leave via the hatch.

This is a good update.

These are all good changes.

They are making a better game, for all of us.

Not picking on you, just using your comment to mention that in Elite, FE2 and FFE the Python was never a combat ship. It was always a frieghter.

thats fine, but where are the combat ships above a viper then? the anaconda is pitiful in combat right now (mine is worth about 400M) i could get solod by a viper no problem, so where is the up market combat ship?

cant really compare a game that was released 25 years ago with this game though, a lot of stuff is going to change. I am hanging out for the fer de lance and vulcher, its really hard to stay motivated to play this game with the lack of content

"Seeking Luxuries" grinding and extraction zone hunting nerfed.

Can someone explane EXTRACTION ZONE HUNTING nerfed in a bit more detail. I'm bounty hunting @ RES a lot and I think compared to trading, the money you get is way less. I hope they did not nerf it so it's even less worth. I REALLY don't want to trade but I somehow want to be able to buy expensive ships. If it takes even longer now, then

GOOD BYE!

You sure you can't kill a Viper? Even tried to adapt your combat style? You're not flying the same ship you know.

For god sakes STOP! screwing the game up FD. Just saying, Now you can't make credits in anything unless you spend half your life grinding. Still no real content , missions etc. No fix or explanation of rep system still. And then the endless nerfing of everything because someone complains that they were picked on on the playground. Or they don't like that someone else has more money. Fix the things that need to be fixed and put the content in or you'll be loosing more players than you think. It is getting really really boring with nothing to do and no missions to run. Especially when nothing scales. Won't be long before every weapon and every ship and every profession is exactly the same. We might as well all just have sidewinders and no upgrades. That would be balanced right? It really sucks that this game had so much potential and a great ground floor. If FD keeps going this route they will run it underground. But I guess well all back the roller coaster game instead right? Good job on the new sounds though.
