Development Update 1 - June
- Thread starter Arthur Tolmie
- Start date
So if the devs can't fix the repeating planetary features, which is too much of a technical challenge for the devs, which seems odd because it's something the devs created... Revert back to Horizons/Beyond planetary generation, but keep the atmospheres and the new biological distribution?
I really have to admit defeat, it's hard to stay positive after making a show of myself being a fanboy on social media, for someone who is primarily an explorer, bumping into the same mountain range, and the same fissures on multiple planets seems like such a step backwards.
I just don't want to play your game anymore and that is so sad for someone who has multiple accounts and over 70 weeks of playtime. I'm going to put it on the back burner, come back in a year or two maybe or sooner if your "increased communication" and "dev updates" piques my interests. I can't believe I preordered Odyssey twice for two of my accounts.

Which part of "Dr Kay is hosting a Frontier Development livestream" do you find funny?
Ahhhhh...Just a well meant suggestion: Put the "please note" part in rainbow colors and font size 26:
Feel free to copy and paste.
Well...
I still hope that (at least) the shield status percentage will be available tomorrow.
I agree, Lysette. It would be nice to have the question answered though.
And was one of the major features of the DLC!
Is the live stream about game development? Anything about Elite Dangerous development going on in there?
Makes you wonder how they made a trailer and multiple picture and stuff without noticing.
They didn’t fool anyone.
Everyone here should taste the torture of trying to keep an irate crowd happy
Maybe Arthur had been given an indication it was ok to share some interesting information, got excited and mentioned as such to us plebs and had the rug pulled out from him by one of the higher ups at the last minute. I would not be in the least bit surprised.
Salty.
That's how it taste.
Does this include fixing passengers disappearing from ships when jumping?
If not - great news, I can't wait to team up properly.
If so - AMAZING news, this is going to be so much fun

No - it's not about any of the games Frontier make. It's a FD supported stream, being done by FD employees in their own time.
What part of LGBTQ Pride has anything to do with Elite Dangerous?
you have no idea.
the part that frontier managed to schedule 2 "development streams" on the same day(they can't even manage their calendar, jesus) but fled from the one with a botched DLC release, if that's not funny then that's truly tragic.
Edit: Seems like a Pride month stream, which im all for it, at least it is for a great cause.
Still, frontier had a month to schedule and did on the same day as the promised dev stream,tragic.
It is literally mind boggling. Got a whole trailer and screenshots of something that doesn't fully exist in a fully priced product. We got sold a car with premium tires and we're out here riding on the rims like some suckers. A MONTH AND A HALF since release. How was this not caught in testing? They had a whole 3 weeks after alpha closed!
