News Beyond - Chapter Three Launch Announcement

I guess to all those complaining about the game should be made to play the original game, or even Frontier. Then you just might be a little more appreciative about what the guys at FD have created.

Yes there will be bugs, and yes not everyone will be happy, but it's still a massive undertaking.

Seriously, try out the '84 game if you can.
 
Hi!

Good to see the game progressing, hope to play it to it's full potencial.

I would like to have the gimabaled version of large multy cannon, small guardian plasma launcher, and shard cannon.
I think the apsence of the gimbaled varsion of some of the new weapons is like a slap to the face of those who don't care about multy crew, and prefer gimbaled weapons over fixed an turreted.

Large gimballed Multi Cannons are already in the game for some time.
Regarding plasma launcher and shard cannon. Those weapons are same category as the plasma accelerator and the frag cannon. Both of these are fixed only. So regarding gimballed version for those.... it's not gona happen.

I am flying small ships, for now, so, i am not sure about this, but, there is an option to hire an npc and give it the gunner's spot in ur ship, right?

Sould try it out on a multycrew capable ship first, before complaining about it, but if, the only way to use an npc is by giving it the fighter's pilot spot in my ship, is like discrimitating solo players of the game.
Same logic applyes to any other bennefits player controled multycrew ships have, and solo players don't.

I would very much enjoy using manually any turreted weapon i may have fit to my ship, while an npc would fly the ship, and the npc getting better on aiming as it progresses threw the combat ranks, a lot like npc fighter pilots do.

NPC pilots are only for fighters ATM. But this doesn't hinder you in any way to use turreted weapons. Even without NPC crew the turreted guns will fire at the target. So I don't understand your problem.

Are you suggesting both games are so bad that we'll appreciate this one more? I'm confused.

No, they were great games of their time, but in Elite you only had the Cobra, and Frontier you could only own 1 ship at a time. And they were only single player games, you can now fly anywhere in the galaxy with a group of friends, or just muck around in the bubble and mine or taxi or whatever. It's the choice you have now that we didn't have then.
 
Thought file transfer was fast these days, does'nt take 7 hours to copy files over to main server and if the delays are down to tests, should'nt these have been done before the update.

I was just wondering how you test if the update to the servers has been successful before you do the update to the servers?
 
Quite annoying listening to the live stream, as they are saying there some new content coming and "more things to discover" but we know it's gonna be Guardian puzzles just like the Thargoid, AKA Grind...
Even the official trailer seems this is the case Guardian Grind toward Combat focused gameplay only!!

Though Q4 is meant to be aimed at Exploration for players time will tell.

I just wish ED would take note and listen to the community more than just do there own thing what they believe is right being a long haul community game.

Any developer or creator will tell you it is their product and their vision so they decide what content comes along, users can of course react to it but making demands will not get you anywhere.

Then again I also didn't notice the Triple Elite Decal, so I must have skim read it ;)

Yeah, I asked about that in chat but I guess they missed (or ignored) it. So, if the Triple Elite decal has been fixed/added ... you have to wonder what else is missing from the patch notes.
