Hoping some sweet Cobra mk IV access is involved.
Otherwise, great news.

So if you have a Carrier on Console and you dont sell that carrier before the transfer, then your ships and modules could stay there. Why not?
With the mention that now you will have a new commander, with it's own ships, modules, ranks, materials, etc... As far as your console account is concerned, nothing changes.
Hello Sally,
any news regarding the Carrier migration - i know they will not be migrated and it was suggested to the people that cannot take a 6+ billions loss to decommission their carrier prior to the actual migration
However, this quote
from Bruce implied that some other options are under scrutiny by the dev team (for example, and this is my daydreaming, the console migration process automatically enabling a carrier for the migrated account if the source had one or simply adding the credits value to the new account so they could use that amount to purchase an identically outfitted carrier on their new account)
They should spawn on the console carrier.
Activate shipyard and outfitting modules and set access to [ALL]
Yes, if you don't sell your carrier everything stays there on console. But my concern is with the pc save, not the console save. where does all the stuff thats in your console carrier go, on your pc account, since your carrier doesn't copy over?
Your pc save should be identical in every way to your console save. Means that every station you stored your ships/modules it should all be in same place on pc, after the transfer is complete. EXCEPT for what is stored in your carrier. Because your carrier doesn't transfer over. So where does all that stuff go.
They count as stations.
If they're moved to the nearest station, so what?
I'm very much interested in this too. I'm down to less than a billion creds but have a lot of trit and LTD stored on my carrier. I assume I'll have to firesale those off or just lose them when decommissioning?Hello Sally,

Would like to know if there's any more info regarding fleet carriers before I hit the big red button to send my beloved cookie carrier to the scrapyard
Nothing get lost... no need to worry about that.
Your stuff (ships and modules) will be on your console account carrier or on the nearest station
As a sidenote,
sometime ago, i was doing missions from an AX Megaship. And the thursday come, the system gets into repair mode and the Megaship disappeared from the system.
When i logged it, i loged in the empty space (Megaship departed)... then i flew to a nearby system to a station with starport and outfitting and i transferred the modules that i had on that megaship (they were listed as being in the previous system, where the megaship was)
So again, nothing get lost.
Hope so. Just been hearing so many different things lately and frontier haven't really touched on carrier contents. So wasn't sure what to believe. I was hoping for a response from them here.

Any updates about Fleet Carriers tranfer? Yes, they aren't being transferred, sell your FC on XBOX and get the money, that will transfer with you to PC and then you can buy a new one.

It's been a rough road and a true Journey to the Black and Back!!
Finally, something I can look forward to. This game has continuously frustrated me and let me down for the last two years.
I started on PC, moved to Xbox, then to PS4 over the course of the game's evolution and now here I am back at PC again soon.
I was beginning to wonder if I had bought a new PC for nothing, as I rarely play anything on it. Although I did reinstate my World of Warcraft character and get in a little old school shooter time on Day of Defeat while hoping that this day would finally come.
So here I am, Steam account reactivated... have I really been a member 13 years??? wow!
The squadron, or group we had on console went from 10 to 3, now that have decided to migrate to PC. Changing all that for 1 game isn't always feasible. Some have PC's for work but they cant game on them and they are not cheap.
So this is bitter sweet for me and I would imagine some others... The wait for Odyssey on console was soooo exciting, then became a bit alarming. When the news hit after nothing from the Dev's for so long, all the excitement, wonderment, and newness of the expansion was gone. Many were robbed of that new game feeling and became bitter. It was tough to chew on. It hurt a bit as I decommissioned the carrier and said goodbye to a game I had been playing since slightly before Horizons. After a few months we got word accounts may transfer so a few of us got back on and played the old console a bit and even revived the FC with renewed hope, yet there was the matter of only one of three having a PC to play on.
I want to thank FDEV for at least putting forth the effort to care about some of us long time players who ended up on console and offer the transfer. Not how I would have handled the situation obviously and I was extremely unhappy for quite some time, this was a game I loved. That being said I have come to terms and am excited once again to be playing on a new platform... well back to where I started oh so long ago anyway. Turns out console wasn't the entire future of gaming eh? Anyway thanks guys, hoping for all of our sake this goes well. Just wanted to offer up what I believe many of us have been through on the console side. The struggle has been quite a journey but we are hoping the light at the end of the tunnel is here, (and not a train).
Carry on commanders, I look forward to becoming a member of this elite group once again.
I sold my Xbox and used the funds to build a gaming PC. I'll be ready and waiting.
I would like to know how long the window will be open. I know September 12th is the planned start date for the transfers but when will the last day to do it be? Will we have 90 days? 60? There are still some things I want to do on my console account so that when it copies, it carries over to the PC account and I have it on both.
This is really good news, got me a brand new gaming rigg and oddesy looks beautiful on it.
Carrier and all is decommissioned and i can not wait to finally get all my inventory over to PC.

Ready for the transfer. PC arrived in time woohoo.
Probably not the right place to ask but thought I'd take a shot.
I am completely computer illiterate and all the technical jargon goes right over my head but I was wondering if anyone had any advice on a gaming PC good enough to run Odyssey at a playable and acceptable level.
I'm also not a rich man with a family and with Xmas around the corner and the cost of living crisis the cheaper the better. Thanks in advance

One thing to keep in mind about the console transfer is that it is effectively a save copy (minus FC and arx) and won't delete the Dave existing on your console of choice. The way I see it you might as well go ahead with the process so that the transfer is there if you ever do happen to get a PC that can run the gameWhile I'll keep the transfer process in mind, I'm not particularly interested in it, I don't have a PC that can run "base" Elite Dangerous, let alone Odyssey and I don't want to play 99% of my games on PC if I did.
I want to play most games and in particular what to keep playing fully featured Elite on my family of systems of choice, Playstation!!.
I'm still hopeful that after Frontier sort out Odyssey on PCs, they'll "return" to console development and "at the very least", release the game in full, along with Odyssey and any new features on the "next gen" consoles, while adding everything they can to the "last gen" systems, while all platform crossplay would be a great added bonus!
You'll "leave a lot of us behind" if ye don't "return" to console development, but we'll welcome you back with open arms, IF you come back to us!

You only need to decommission it if you never plan to use it on the console again, I am planning to keep mine as the PS5 account will be just as rich as the PC account is, as its a copy of said account. If you have a lot of cash on the account you really don't need to decommission the carrier unless you want to. Mine will live on the PS5 for years with the money on that account for weekly maintenance costs.
If I ever need it for some reason I can then still use it. If you are in need of the credits though, then yes decommission it and buy a new on on the PC.
I am not even sure I will buy a new carrier on the PC yet. Not 100% sure.
