They change actually a lot in the UI. For details have a look at the last Supercruise stream, there they show the changed Outfitting UI and talk a bit about the rest.
Development Update 1 - June
- Thread starter Arthur Tolmie
- Start date
Yup! Gotta give credit where credit is due. They seemed to have made good changes to the outfitting UI and some QoL changes to the system map from what the stream showed. Something will be bugged when it releases tomorrow for sure - as is the spirit of Frontier - but it looks fundamentally better.
Put back Store Multiple button and flipped the switch to Store as default. Color me rainbowy amazed.
I think it's a good change, the more visible data etc. Sure, just my opinion, but I like to be fair. The UI will be changed for the better in my eyes and besides all grudges I can
that.
True. Who is this Suit sitting on all the information we want and not letting anything out???
I want to know:
1. Will there be Thargoids on foot?
2. Will there be new SRVs?
3. Will there be base Buidling? (as we see all those vehicle and building schematics in game)
4. Whats in that 10 year plan that was spoken about during the "Beyond" panel at the Frontier Expo?
- will 1, 2 & 3 come when console launches?
- did everything change? if so because of what and to what?
- will i ever be able to fly through clouds, land on grassy planes and go submarine with my ship?
- will we ever be able to fly into the atmosphere of gas giants?
- will we ever be able to land on lava- oder waterworlds?
This was not the time to talk about Bugfixing.
I have great appreciation to the incredible task of building an FPS shooter on top of an Galaxy wide and incredibly detailed Space Simulator. This is truly an outstanding achievement. All you Devs can be proud of that. I have a lot of fun playing Odyssey. I love you guys and want the game to succeed, as we all do.
But as it seems, some guy/girl in charge at Frontier, does not like to share any future plans. Or he/she likes to surprise us. Alright, keep some secrets to surprise us on updates. But please show us the grand scheme of things. - Or is there no plan at all ????????
That’s because they’re all pouring through the hours of amazing details to read in the dev post that was going to make us all really happy at the end of the month. I’m sure they’ll all be back online soon.
What about implementing FSR for a fast huge performance boost?
Both AMD and nvidia would benefit

Frontier made £16.6m in 2020.. Hardly the 100s of millions you are peddling?
Is this a joke or what? One of the main features of the dlc is broken and devs still have no clue how to fix it when it should've been ready more than one month ago when they cashed all the people money???
Well, we wanted them to be honest.
All
All this honesty is killing me..
Sadly, no, that's not quite correct. They poked at it, in a few more places. This is a repeated pattern in Fdev's adjustments - instead of making a systematic interpretation, it's poke a bit here, a bit there, and say "there, it's closer!" Last time I went trawling through the change log, at least 1/3 of those I could verify had this property. Nudged, not fixed. Same thing for all those paintjobs that get their colours adjusted instead of restoring their material properties, and that's something they take actual money for.
I still marvel at how many times such a simple thing as matching the orientation of a space station with its model gets broken. The most recent "fix" switched which axis it is 90 degrees off on, and it's often not even showing the right model (funny, Mitra Estate in Farack shows different models depending on how it's targeted?).
All of those are low hanging fruit as fixes go; easy to check, easy to change. Often things left as introductory tasks to find your way around a codebase. But... this is what gets signed off on. This is the example being set.
So, after years of telling you how broken the "issue tracker" is, here's the played up update: You looked at several of the issues inside it. Not at the many issues preventing people posting issues. Yep, more than Elite is broken.

Interesting, perhaps my comments were a little complex.
How much has SC earned in not yet producing a product? ($300+ million, allegedly)
NMS had netted in the region of $100 million in its first 2 years of existence.
How much has ED netted since release?
Now, about those $100's of millions... They are already being spent on products / non-products so the market exists for a released product to compete... Sorry, I can't explain it any simpler.
I think we should cool our thrusters for a short time with the 'when we will get this new thing added in' questions.
How can you even begin to ask for new things when they need to fix the basic functionality of the game...um, I mean beta release?
I am slightly encouraged by a sense of some progress thusfar, albeit painfully slow. And I am still feeling extremely salty that you released this game for the sole fact you needed to pad financial books. I know you'll never admit it, FDev, but that's what you did. And you've clearly alienated many core fans. Wasted our time with a useless alpha, ignored the feedback from it, and then frankly lied to me and stole my cash.
I'll give it another month or two. Mainly not because of the company, or the game, but because I owe it to the CMs who are taking a lot of crap...when all they are trying to do is their best to help. It has not gone un-noticed, and you deserve a bit more of a chance. I'm cheering for you, but I'm way up in the back of the stands right now.

I don't blame the honesty of the post (CM can't be blamed at all) but the dishonesty of the released product.
Is everything forgiven already?
