Dear FDev: Regarding your most recent "fix" of the Mission Board . . .

Another fail. [down]

Nah, the Devs just made a list of everyone who gets salty and they get the 'special' missions board :D

I haven't had that problem for the better part of the week, and I am enjoying the new boom cargo missions for large quantities of haulage. Just wish I had a bigger ship at time lol
 
No problems for me doing Passenger Missions

I'll try the regular mission board when I land.
 
Just checked

Mission Boards loading almost instantly for me - but then again, I just upgraded to Gigabit fiber optic internet.
 
All good for me too, and I'm all the way out in NZ.

Check your connection OP.

Second this, internet connection is most likely the fail.
I have had this twice since 2.3 drops, one was MS kindly downloading patches in the background (given tis background, could they not throttle it), the other to be fair is unexplained, so putting down to wireless and or internet, or evne FD servers having a bad 5 minutes, as going out and back in refreshed the board ok.

You get this message when the game cant connect easily to the servers. Sometimes I get a blip in my internet service and these timeouts happen then.

You also get this, when the board gets a mission that is invalid. Saw it a few times over the past weekend. Nothing to do with your connection.
 
I use phone LTE connection for play ED and during whole evening (circa 8 hours in game) two days ago, when I did missions most of time, happened to me only once that mission list ended like in OP. Considering highly increased variation of missions and balancing rewards for missions (included the micro-materials rewards), I think that this last server update was really good one. Personally I only wish that FDev continue improving missions similarly like they did it for this last update. Maybe OP can try reach to support so they can check why it do not work for him smoothly.

Mission board changes that happened about a week ago are one of FDs greatest successes to date, the mission variety and rewards are better than ever. Please don't disregard that just because a server had a hiccup.
 
I've had a few partial loads of the mission board over the last few days, but never a complete fail. Also had a mission disappear as I handed it in, so there are still some gremlins.

Nothing show stopping though.

So did I but I could only get a "partial load" of the Passenger Missions the day before yesterday. I got maybe a total of 7-8 compared to the usual 30-40 across all factions at Wu Guinagi.

That problem resolved itself the following day.
 
Missions are currently the majority of my playtime, and I've yet to see a single hiccup. Always loads fast.

Besides, I'd hardly classify what the OP posted as a 'fail'. The game did exactly what it was coded to do, provide a partial mission list instead of failing. Seems like it's working as intended.
 
You could see it as an improvement over the old behaviour where the game would CTD, give you an empty mission board, or return a partial list, as in the screenshot - but without telling you that it'd happened at all. Best err on side of dev incompetence, I guess.
