At the risk if ing everyone off...am I the only person who has been able to get into the game with no problems? The stars are there and there's no crashing. Looking good FD!
So that's settled then. We're all coming round yours to watch. You have >1000 beers right?
The huge logs for me are in C:\Program Files\Frontier\EDLaunch\Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1002\Logs
Managed to get a 4 gig log file before killing the game from Task Manager.
I hope we're not melting FD's servers with us all trying to download and connect.
the real question is .. is there a problem on different continents.
from what my friends an i have seen the american access to the servers have been somewhat stable but the European UK/EU access is a little unstable and constantly disconnecting after about 3 mins of play.
i think this could be a combination of net lag from the mirrored host servers and the shear amount of people trying to access the servers at the same time ( lets be fair this is one of the most popular betas in the last 20 years) there is bound to be issues.
i just purchased my £50 version today and got about 2hours in before the issues kicked in. am i complaining .. WELL yes and no.. yes cos i just bought into the game and was looking to play based on what i heard about this development of one of my favourite franchises game wise EVER.
and no.. cos as a modder in the gaming community and a gamer also i know full well this is a beta and time needs to be spent to iron out all bugs and from observation this seems an issue between server and clients and not everythings setled since the 2.02 patch.. (i can live with that irregardless of howw irritating it feels personally)
all i ask is ppl please be patient. rushing them in this fix will lead to mistakes. you've all paid your cash.. i ask you this (would you like a polished and fixed game or a rushed game thats so broken you'll regret the investment????
i prefer the former so i trust the devs will look into everything over the next few days and keep us regularly aprised of the status so we all can benefit.
dont get me wrong i feel plenty peeved that i cant play this evening.. but i will give the devs the benefit of the doubt this time.. they tried with 2.02 it clearly didnt solve everything for everyone and they need to look more into it..
as long as they do that within a good time frame that everyones happy.. i have no problem being patient (it aint like theres nothing else everysingle one of us could be doing right now whle we wait is there)
have a good one folks i'll see you in game

Make sure you're looking in the right place, there's an older "Log" directory that isn't be used. The current logs are being written here (for a C drive install, Win7):
Code:
C:\Users\(yourcomputer)\AppData\Local\Frontier_Developments\Products\FORC-FDEV-D-1002\LogsBeta 2 is a problem child. I have been through the mill with games released as fit for market in worse shape and to date (after 10 computers including this one) FD have been relentless in hitting deadlines and fixing problems.
I am not a Fanboi, just tell it as I see it and at present this version of the game is a mutt but I will bet in a day or two they will have this sorted.
Six months or a year down the line this 24-48 hours will be long forgotten.

Your incorrect. ALPHA was for this kind of mistake. Unable to load past login screen during beta is a massive issue.
I can understand bugs but not bugs that prevent loading the game.
When your current beta client is worse than your previous clients. Its time for whoever is in charge to have a meeting and decide WHO or what is the problem.
I'll be waiting for beta update 2.999594548454
I really hate applying "updates". Unless the game is stupidly large download I much prefer to wipe the game completely, even the launcher and start it all from scratch. Re-download Launcher, install and go from there. Least that way I know 100% there are no residual dust bunnies that can clog up the fun making.
Ditto,
Boot
menu
freeze
ctrl-alt-del
repeat ad infinitum.
ridiculous isn't it that this thing doesn't work, almost like it wasn't even a finished produ.....
oh
huh
never mind.
Thanks for your efforts to keep us happy, FDEV
Fellow software tester feels for you, many a times I was stuck in the office till late to get the release done and in the end we had to go home and retry next day...
See you in space, Commanders - soon(tm)
Devs shall never surrender! They will fight them on the beaches (the office sand garden)...
This calls for Company Card Pizza guys, C'mon, what's their address everyone dial them a pizza!
I to am having severe connection issues, am currently soft locked/waiting to get into super-cruise after my first access follownig multiple "Server Did Not Respond"'s while loading Solo...
But I wish good Karma on the Devs and the server guys (nobody ever remembers the guys in the big air conditioned cupboard). Hoping to sample the wares soon!
Surrfice to say there was a reset? I appear to be in a Sidey with 1000CR
Same here, can get into open play but crash after hyperspace. I'm generating cash reports faster than i can upload them.
Log File Size
Guys I am getting net log files of between 1 and 3 Gb being written to my SSD! Is there any way I can get them to write to a different location such as my HDD?
I would also like to report that I am frozen at the main menu both with and without the Oculus Rift connected like many of you are seeing.
