Dont know if its the right place here to write... I play with the Oculus Rift.

Small Feedback:
The blue fog in the VSS are not in the background but litte bit annoying.
Even those blue effects in the grid.
Night vision moves with the head at a greater distance to the planet.
Unfortunately, there is no real black anymore (I have the gamma on 0) and the colors are sometimes too colorful for me, maybe you can add adjustable settings :

Otherwise everything is great until now, I love the new UI and explorer features!
 
Is anyone having trouble switching cockpit modes after exiting FSS?
Wouldn't enter FSS/Exit FSS make more sense as a toggle? like F to enter, and F to exit if in FSS?

I cannot seem to find a control for switching cockpit mode back to a combat capable position.

I've lost the grided view in the FSS and can't see how much of the planet's surface I've not scanned in order to aim probes at. The front/back planet view toggle makes no difference.

Anyone seeing this?

also, how can I tell which planets I've surface scanned or not? There's nothing obvious in the system map or HUD as far as I can see. The system map keeps showing the system as being 000% mapped.

questions about new modes

i own the horizons on xbox1x and pc. ive been testing it and i want to know why the new modules cant be activated via trigger as the equipped module itself. what purpose does adding modes serve other than unnecessary clunky ui?

also in your live stream you launched probes from a star to a planet to discover the surface map. when i tried this i had to almost be in contact with the planet in order to use it. btw it took 3 hrs just to learn how to activate dss mode so damn your help box doesnt offer help with that at all.

i was wondering if you could create a galactic power chat for people that are pledged to work en mass.

thx

Could not aggree more.
The new modes are utterly pointless and serves no real purpose.

Why take us out of cockpit, and take away ship control ?
The entire discovery scan mode could have more easily been done as an addition to the orbit lines visible in cruise instead of being done as a completely seperate mode.

It makes no sense and is honestly poor game design.
 
Engineers Crash - Open Beta

Hi Team,

i was docking at Felicity Farseer and as I docked ED crashed. I relaunch and the same occurs... could you look into this please I'm Stuck! [up]

The more important issue for me is the same issue I have with the GalMap and SysMap. That you can't hear cockpit sounds while you are in those screens.
I don't spend much time in the SysMap and I try not to spend too much time in the GalMap. I have see commanders lose their ship because they were in the GalMap for a while and couldn't hear the overheating alarms.
Now there is yet another mode to take us away from the cockpit. Even at zero throttle you're not stopped, and it's not impossible to trip silent running accidentally or come under attack from another player. And you would never know it until you're looking at the re-buy screen.
 
I still don't understand why we need a key to enter FSS and another key to exit FSS. Devs that worked on this - have you never heard of toggle?

Discrete keys allow automated tools like Voice Attack and macros to enter or exit without having to know what mode it's currently in.

Shouldn't make any different to VA. Your voice command will trigger any key prompt, there is no reason that it can't be the same one seeing as it's responding to your desires.
 
I play ED with the Rift when i go into the FSS nothing of the binded key's works.[where is it]

This is a known (Hopefully) bug, in that VR users cannot see the help guide that seems to pop up when first going into FSS. Either press your enter key blindly until you hear no more clicks (I think ther is 8 or 9 pages to click next on), or go into the FSS in 2D mode, do the help screen and switch back to VR, when things will work again.

Should (SHOULD) be fixed soon Hopefully, fingers crossed, touching wood etc etc!
 
Efficiency target during surface scans are sometimes impossible to achieve. I just ran into a planet with an efficiency target of 1, i shot one probe into the planet and it revealed only 79%.

Because in plenty of multi-crew seats you dont have the view to do that, for starters. Another reason is that when you tune to a certain USS freq, all USS of that freq light up. Which means that you spot them way faster in VR/TrackIr if you ship doesn't block them out. Honestly, you may not like something, but it is quite likely there are reasons for something you may not have thought of yourself. :)

Try selecting the other beta version
That doesn't have planetary landings, so you should find yourself in orbit.

I've visited Felicity and left without problems...
