Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
My install keeps crashing out with either:
Failed to read from response stream. Network connection closed
or
Update failed for file "C:program Files (x86)\Steam\seamapps\common\Elite Dangerous\products\PUBLIC_TEST_SERVER .... various file names after that ... (validation error)
Is it just busy with everyone else downloading ?


Got there in the end. Each time a little bit further on the progress bar... Eventually took about 15-20 install attempts to get the whole lot.
Would be nice to have a %age meter and for it to not download files you already have down but that's something for the future I guess.
 
Also concerned about making interdiction easier for the interdictor.

Escaping interdiction from another CMDR is nigh impossible, even when I keep the escape vector dead center on target.

Escaping interdiction from NPCs is easy as pie (only exception is flying in a T9, which is fair).

Clarification would be much appreciated!

Agreed, the way interdiction works is a complete mystery, it's not 'what you see is what you get'. By analogy, if you're in a CZ, you blow up, or other ships blow up, because damage was done by shooting. In the interdiction mini game, the relationship between actions and results are unclear, it's like ships blow up out of the blue, or you shoot at another ship but nothing happens.

Curious: for me it's really easy to escape an interdiction by an NPC when I am in a T9, easier than in any other ship.

Managed to get into a couple of matches so far, winged up with Teezo. First one, 5 of us, was split..... 4 vs 1 :) Eventually the other guy's team filled up though. Then we had probably my first 4 v 4 in AGES. Now though, I've been sitting 20-30 minutes on Team Deathmatch without a single soul in sight. :(

Right.. gonna have to start a stream.. won three matches already today.. I give FD a hard time when I feel its due BUT once again big reach out to the devs and all involved with CQC (Its wonderful fun). I hope you guys are prepped for the potential cheats and hacks that we'll no doubt have to endure. ;)

A bit off topic for a second...

What thrusters are on your T9...I was still running with D rate and just couldn't win any interdictions (and I've noticed that the maneuverability buff that thrusters give in normal space do translate into SC). There was one NPC Clipper in particular that would interdict me, I'd get to SC, it would interdict me again, I'd get to SC, etc...repeat 3 more times until I got em to crash into a planet (was quite harrowing as I had a cargo full of silver and not nearly enough for insurance *slaps own hand*)
 
Validating the game files got the BETA 5 working - but the galaxy map in the game modes OPEN, SOLO and PRIVATE still shows no stars for me, so testing possibilities are limited.
 
I see there are a lot more players, so I waiting for players with 5 other commanders and not just 3... When we got a full group it still waited for players for a few seconds then someone left and it kept going for about 5minutes, then I left. I dont see what should i test here...

edit: It was their test that more people solve this problem or not, well nope u need to code some things there
