Wow, no crashes or lag problems at all with multiplayer or single. Netcode improvements obvious. As others have said, NPC interdictions now tougher and more frequent in anarchy systems at least. It makes delivering cargo to an anarchy system pretty exciting.

Known Issues Thread


ATTENTION: We are aware of issues with missions such as errors when attempting to pick them up and missions disappearing from your transactions panel after hyperspacing/supercruising to a new area. We are investigating this and need no further information on these two issues at this time. Thank you for your patience.

PLEASE NOTE: If you're experiencing an issue that is already on the list below, you do not need to submit a ticket for it. Please consult this list before creating a new ticket.

We're no longer allowing tools which scrape the data directly from the game or through its communications. We will be considering an external API for future development, but for now these tools are not permitted.

We are experiencing an incredibly high volume of tickets coming into our system at this time. We are working through them as quickly and efficiently as possible and ask for your continued patience as we get back to you all as soon as we can. Please also ensure you're setting your ticket to the correct category so we can prioritise issues accordingly by severity.

If you're experiencing a more general issue, advice can be found on the game knowledge base

@BlueThunder: i ran as soon he opened fire, thought it was a civil cop ^^

20 players at an outpost was really amusing, i had a cargo mission running when i got acces denied like 10 times, went solo, and i will hide under a rock until i got a good ship. will sell my weapons now, too.

Galaxy map route planner

Please give us the option when planning a route in the galaxy map, highlight the next jump point in the ships side panel, so that i don't need pen and paper to write down my route.

Impressions? Amazed once again. Never saw game being polished so fast. Sounds are better, graphics is improved, effects added, UI improved and beautified...

Game is starting to look like a finished product.

I have reported some bugs already but all of them are minor. My major complain is strong FPS drop.

All in all, i enjoy this game even more now, although i thought it can't go any further. I'm finally in love again :D

Great game and great work with this patch!

The small Fighters no longer have 100000 tonne fuel tanks

The small Fighters no longer have 100000 tonne fuel tanks, meaning they should no longer destroy anacondas and other big ships on impact!

Just reading the change log while patching.
I LOLed at this.

So thats why hitting fighters has been so deadly.

Either kill your target quicker, wait until someone else has done all the hard work, or kill those who would "steal" your bounty. All have consequences - that is part of the beauty of Elite.

Wait for someone else to do all the hard work hmm, you sir will never date my sister, being British i consider myself a good sporting chap... Abd the last one, kill a fellow bounty hunter??? All of your points are useless scribbles to someone who wishes to implement a fair system... you don't agree and think i should change my mind? Get away ya filthy animal!

Did you all get the "display auto optimization" question on install. said mine recommended as high. The fps on the screen shot below is 20fps, other went to 19 fps from that view. 30 was a average at the low end. around the starting station and planet

I love the 'new' lens flare effects. (not shown on this screen shot)


I have AMD 7800 Series. latest drivers. I'll try beta drivers tomorrow, and report findings
I ticketed this white blocked border and dot graphic bug, New for me in v3.9.0. Just now at iBootis

I appreciate and understand your points good Sir. Never play with your food, you never know where your hands have been.
I'd never date your sister on principle of her being a good sporting chap. Killing bounty hunters? Not a problem for me - I carry no bounty, and if they fire upon me then that puts them in an awkward situation Sir.

There is no such thing as a fair system Sir, there never was and never will be, and scribbles are not my area of expertise. I'll happily assume they are your main arena of study as you brought them up first., quite outside my knowledge.

I do still, and will always, disagree with you, in a friendly manner of course. But tagging any person as a filthy animal, Sir - that is inexcusable. May the tentacles of a thousand Thargoids infest your orifices for years beyond count of millennia.

I wish you good day Sir! :D

Haha love it, didnt mean anythin by filthy animal, its a joke between friends..... But you gota admit... If it happened to you, youd be annoyed, what about carefully wittling down an anaconda in a sidey with 5% hull left to go and Mr cobra mrk III step in and takes the glory, where is the justice!?

Good luck when wings is finally implimented... It would be a good idea to team up and take a big ship down... Without a split reward tho, honestly whats the point?...
