I think it's very inconsiderate of you FD! Rushing out yet more fixes to improve my gaming experience when you must know I can't play or test them till Monday as I'm off all weekend! ;)

Same here - I'm off on holiday for a week from tomorrow and don't know how I'll manage without my daily dose of ED.

Still I suppose by next weekend we'll be on Gamma ?? :D
 
Good job by the sound of it guys. I hope you enjoy a much deserved weekend :)

Every patch is a step closer to a truly amazing game
 
Suns still look like crap compared to beta 1

Here's the old view:

Have spent a quick half an hour on b2.04.

No connection issues. Minor hangs on leaving leaving s/c, when playing in private group.

Otherwise very stable and looks good so far.

I am away from the usual set of stations and there is commodities to be traded, which means I can mix the game play up a bit, but most credits coming from missions :)

Since b2... there are times where you come across just the most stunning visuals... sun rises over dark planets, or a lit station in very dark space, docking on an outpost in orbit around a blue planet... that just make you smile with pleasure it looks so good.
 
At first I could not connect on open play. Then I restarted and connected, but had to quit because of serious lag. It was so laggy that my framerate must have dropped to about 5fps. Anyone else had these problems since the 2.04 update?
 
Wow. I never had the problem before now, but can confirm the game contrast goes WAY up after exiting the galaxy map. To be honest, I think it looks drastically better that way, and now I'm wondering which look is the intended one.
 
I'm not sure if they realize how much that impacts all parts of the game. Much worse than any HUD issues, I would say. Ah well, they will get around it eventually. Thanks and have a good weekend, guys!

Yeah, I did the update and logged in briefly just to check that (no time to play until later today). The shader bug is still there for stations, causing that washed out look, like it's in a preview window in a 3D modeler program. I'm just squinting and ignoring it for now.
 
Ok so I have issues in 2.0.4 that I didnt have 0.3

The station services menus are really laggy, and I've had 2 disconnects and 2 unresponsive progs from in the station menus and trying to return to surface from hanger...not managed to get out of the station yet in 2.0.4

That aside, the game is looking amazing now, working coms is superb, if we could just squish these few connectivity issues we'd be laughing.

Cheers for all your work FD :cool:

How high is your upload rate?

In beta 2.03 I could play fine in stations, even with my slow internet (~50kb/s upload). I was not able to play that smooth before beta 2, because I always had a high upload in and around stations that made my ping go crazy. Beta 2.03 helped to reduce this high upload.

Now with 2.04 I'm all back again...my upload limit is at maximum capacity, my ping goes high...


edit: just did another restart of the game. Now it seems fine.

I get this to and have submitted a ticket. The contrast changes back when coming out of hyperjump so i have to go back to the map and back to the cockpit for that nice contrast again.

2.04 is a big improvement being able to disable UI effect. :D
 
- Fix unable to sell all exploration data

The button is now working but there is no respond from the server. Still have to sell the data one by one :eek:

Yep, just came back in to say everything gets washed out looking again after exiting hyperspace. In and out of the galaxy map makes the game pretty again.

Also: Now I want a gyro....
 
New one!: I accepted a courier mission, after it said my cargo hold had been filled, the game stuck on the "Please wait" icon for a good 45 seconds. After heading off on the mission I found that it isn't listed in my missions, and the cargo I was supposed to be transporting is listed as stolen.
 
Thank.. I'M IN and it's full of stars, beautiful :D

I'm not going to pretend to know what you all did nor would I ever understand it - but I suspect me doing a 'clear save' might have helped.. what ever... it is great to be back in the universe in a 'Sidey'.

So my one hour of playing (testing) each day is back - should make a Cobra in time for the next wipe - can't wait:D

Good job everyone, hope others have the glee i'm feeling right now.

Have a great weekend.
