unfortunately that is probably not going to happen, if a 1200+ euro/pound/usd gaming pc is struggling at times to perform well, how can you expect a PS4 too?
In order to port this to console a lot of optimisation needs to be done, this will take a few months. Those optimisations need to be done on a core level of the planetary and FPS tech. Those changes are happening now for PC and being phased in, but to release this to console they need a pretty optimised build.
Consoles getting the same broken experience as PC does not benefit anyone, so it's good (although sad) that you need to wait for a more polished product.
I want all the people and players and users that said anything negative about Odyssey lately, to retract all their salt and negativity.
Also, I want all Youtubers like Yamiks, that sparked all the negative speeches and insults or whatever bad thing they said about CM's, developers and staff, to publicly apologize.
Frontier is working hard to provide us our hobby game and even a second life for some of us and they all do is spark endless debates and curse, influence people in most negative way.
I'm curious if they will shift their opinion now
The new planets ...I need an exploration ship now

Negativity about odyssey:
This developer update and the new direction does not make up for the odyssey release we've experienced (in its current form), that is riddled with issues and clearly incomplete.
The reason Fdev switched focus from console to enriching odyssey is because of the negativity around the release.
I'm not saying you should thank <insert name here> and others for being so negative about the game, but you should understand where those comments came from and the affect the mass-amount of people have had on changing odysseys development direction on the short term.
Keep in mind a lot of that negativity was still constructive, it stated the problem but also gave ideas and solutions on ways forward. At the beginning a lot more trust and positive energy was coming from the community despite the issues.
The more dark tones came about because the response from frontiers did not meet expectations at that time.
Fdev needing an apology from the community:
People who have been abusive need to do more than apologse, but thats clearly not what you meant.
Giving constructive negative feedback on the game can do more to improve it than negatively impact it.
But it's important that frontiers takes the feedback in and communicates how it will do better. (which they're working on and it's appreciated)
Frontiers needs to earn back trust at the moment, not the other way around.
Working hard / on our hobby:
Working hard is not the same as working smart, we know frontier developers are working hard. But as an organisation they haven't been working as smart.
Things are slowly turning around and im hoping this a learning moment for everyone (including us as a community).
Our Hobby: you seem to think they build this game for us, in part that is true.
But keep in mind they're in the business of making money. They work hard to continue to make good money.
Additionally it being our hobby or not, a certain level of expectation of quality is important and mis-managing that can easily become a legal issue (cyberpunk 2077).
In closing:
Frontiers aren't evil, they made some mistakes and so have we as a community (in part).
But i think it's important to be objective as much as possible. As to not invalidate the issues or concerns from either side of this issue.
Frontiers could become more transparent and have more open discussions on certain features, this can help a lot with funnelling people to information instead of CMs getting bombarded by the same questions.
