Patch Notes Update Beyond - Chapter Four - Beta (Week 3)

[Rat Catcher]

I suspect every shipyard now sells one more ship, and all outfitting offers two more utility type. Due to the proliferation of new ships/modules the old way means you'd have to fly to increasingly more systems (even when picking high-tech) to get what you want without using 3rd party sources.

Just guessin' though.



Thats how I read it. Fixes are still mostly related to b1 issues, so I suspect we'll only see b2 issues being fixed in later patches. But at least they are working on it, and who goes mining in a mamba. As an aside, I do feel the next mining stream should be in VR. Just to put some pressure on them...

That's how I read it and interpreted it - makes a lot of sense

 

[-VR- Max Factor]

maybe i am being blind/reading it wrong but does this mean the VR issues with the shadows around rings and the mining scanner (Pulse Wave Analyser that highlights gold on the rocks to mine) has NOT been fixed?

if so that sucks.

Look at the known issues in the feedback section.

"the ship can hit hard and fast, vanishing before the target has a chance to react"
Griefers' paradise!

 

[Han_Zen]

Lots of nice fixes. Look forward to testing it.[up]

 

[Cmdr Eagleboy]

Lots of tasty fixes and new additions...especially non shooty scenarios, yes!

Are Wife Dwarfs required to win the Rock Hermit scenario?

 

[Fry]

One of Adam Woods' favourite features!

An automated, Wing-signal "ON" after joining a Wing is still not possible?

 

[Barking_Mad]

Are Wife Dwarfs required to win the Rock Hermit scenario?

New co-pilots confirmed?

 

[Factabulous]

OMG - it's running late

 

[ilo]

Thanks!

 

[varonica]

Nice update, a lot of things asked for there as well, number of bodies found now appears outside the FSS windows, while a small change to make it's a big improvement in game.

 

[Parmo]

New co-pilots confirmed?

Wife dwarves as back seat drivers? I'd like to hear the comms chat there.

 

[Xenia_K]

reads nice - thanks a lot FD.... can´t wait to test the fixes in exploration

 

[Lloyd Morgan-Moore]

I was only looking at the Wrecked Megaships last night and wondering if the Hull Breeches might be scenario related

 

[Ian Doncaster]

Lots of the bugs I reported seem to be on the fix list, so thank you!

[*]Reduced the grade thresholds of the Colonia engineers

Thanks! It didn't look like the previous live progress (even from a few weeks before) had been copied across in Beta 1 but I'll definitely be checking this out.

[*]Removed a 'phantom' third ring around "Paesia 2" which was causing players to drop out of Supercruise when nothing was there

There's a lot of these extremely tenuous C-rings about in both inhabited and uninhabited systems, so you may need to find a more general fix for this.

 

[Tori Yamazaki]

Anyone know an approximate length of time the servers might be down?

Just got back from a cruise and wanted to start looking at the beta... it looks HUGE!

Mining

Increased the cooldown on the Pulse Wave Analyser, to allow the results to appear before players can trigger it again
Resource Extraction Sites should now appear in applicable areas of the game
Outfitting text for the Seismic Charge tool now mentions that it is used to break asteroids apart

yields?

 

[Cmdr Andrew Johnson]

Do we have a known issues thread for Beta 3 yet, not being negative but just want to test without submitting bug reports, if any, for known issues.

Great raft of fixes especially for VR, kudos to all at FDev

 

[Kenneth McGrew]
