Thanks for the info, support missions are still hard to find, it's one of the most voted for article in the tracker, kindly revert it to the way it was before update 5.
Development Update 2 - July
- Thread starter Arthur Tolmie
- Start date
Nice to see an update with lighting and planet textures adjustments, better FPS performance and camera suite improvements.
It's what I was waiting for the most with the finishing of the system map and the correction of the inivisible rocks bug (SRV killers). I hope it will be fixed soon too
Thank you very much for your work ! This is much appreciated

And the many other games that don't manage to balance the development needs of both PC and console equally would tend to agree.
Swings and roundabouts
FDev focussing on PC first, console later (crossplay will be nice too)
The problem is @StuartGT "later" is fast becoming "too late"
Maybe both? I just did a search for 'guy fainting gif'
, I can understand your concerns however, what gets broken doesn't get fixed for months, if not years, if ever.At this point, not even the fix for Megaship Piracy (broken since April 2020) would bring me back to the game, not when MFS launches tomorrow on Xbox Series consoles.
I feel like they need to actually fix multicrew as it is first including that multicrew ships are immune to scramble spectrum and don't have any malfunctions even if you cook all the modules down to 1%. Yes you can even jump out on 1% fsd every single time in multicrew
This is the kind of Info that was needed.
Well done CM team, Well Done Devs.

Great update!
If you plan to deploy further multicrew improvements like this one I strongly suggest you also take a look at all the related feedback to ensure the best possible experience, especially with regards to respawn mechanics while on physical multi crew:
Multicrew respawn suggestion
When you physically multicrew and fly in a wingmate´s ship, get to a settlement, disembark and die in combat there then the game respawn you back at your ship location wherever that may be. This leads to long periods of wait to get back into the action with your crew mates. Unless sent to a...
Or similar.
Depends on the size of the dev team. I myself am a team of one, and if I work on the Mac version of something I'm not working on the PC version.
Obviously FDev has more than one developer, but it's the same principle. If you allocate 90% of your team to Console, that leaves a skeleton staff on the PC version doing maintenance. If you move them all back to work on the PC version, the Console release has to wait.

such independent death (and non-multi-crew death) on foot in installations could be solved for everyone if bases had brigs ...slightly outside of the base borders. Where you went when you respawned for any reason. Add in a console there to rejoin the previous mission (which perhaps wont fail upon death) ...or decide to abandon this mission and recall your ship and leave...etc.
Boom. simple solution that solves all problems related to respawning.
Frontier seemed to manage with Planet Coaster and JW2. That might suggest it's less a question of time and more one of inclination.
When all ships get damage models. Lol.
Planet Coaster PC was in 2016, Planet Coaster Console was in 2020.
No, as you know it's not, and until they manage to make it run actually very well on PC, they can't possibly foresee any time period for making it work on consoles.But I thought they fixed it ? Everyone has quietened down and everyone was say it works fine with my rig. But seriously no mention at all not even the we are still up for Autumn ( no year ) ? Or give us something to look forward to ? Cos at the moment I ain't seeing anything .
Well its news Jim , but not as we know it.
My choice of tasks for the dev team would always be on fixing the bug/optimising to get the best performance
And while improvments to the NPC types and bases is to be welcomed, of course................ everyones favourite thing to be added to the game...... Thargoids...... we've already had those settlement logs references things running around outside before those miners blew up the base.

Hurrah! This is an excellent update post and a really interesting and encouraging set of changes. I'm actually excited again!
Go Frontier ... let's turn this sucker around!

Great news! Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is what we needed (and still will need): not only bug fixes but improvements, new features, diversity and more functionality. The game and the community really need this love for the game and for us
Thanks for the effort!
PD: Now that there's space for new functionalities, I still hope maybe someday you can consider to allow our commanders to get up their sits and walk around our cockpits And walk the ship's stairs to get to that cockpit! That would be great (and some necessary immersion).
And NPC SRV combat, and mixed combat zones!
Just some wishes.
