Does Elite development ends in 2024?

Couldn't agree more.
I would kick an Anaconda out of Hutton Orbital!
I have

Afraid these are broken as described. Last month I did a Raxxla Potato sector and found two tourist beacons on a well-trodden route which had clearly been put there to teach players about the geology. No ice fumaroles anywhere to be found anywhere near the tourist beacon for them.
It would be nice if we could report things like that for Frontier to tidy up, and even if we can, are Frontier motivated enough to do it?
We do keep reporting problems and bugs, though we do wonder does it reach Frontier at all, and if so are they motivated to fix the problems..
Wrecks are present in Odyssey ... no toutist beacon, but the POI is at the right spot

I guess the point was that after the "planetary re-generation" in Odyssey - they didnt bother to invest the resources to match and align the POIs with the tourist beacons.
Not what they said though - they said the graveyard was gone in Odyssey. Makes you wonder how much to trust other stuff they say, lots of posts here are PEBCAKI guess the point was that after the "planetary re-generation" in Odyssey - they didnt bother to invest the resources to match and align the POIs with the tourist beacons.

Still, the discussion started with the 700+ tourist beacons and it was mentioned that for planetary tourist beacons, the beacon is no longer aligned with the relevant POI
So from the quoted post i understood that the Tourist Beacon is in the middle of nowhere, with no wrecks to suggest that you are visiting the Anaconda Graveyard
While you confirmed the Anaconda Graveyard does exist, but it has no tourist beacon
Which makes for a double freaking confirmation
@Elpapo confirming the tourist beacon exists, but there is no graveyard, while you confirmed there is a graveyard, but no tourist beacon which means they are not aligned since Odyssey - which was exactly the source of their unhappiness
But it doesn't - confirming the poster got two things wrong - double PEBCAK!
(Really I'm just surprised that ppl think tourist beacons getting moved and asteroid fields being interesting is more important that Ship Interiors and ELW - ppl around here have weird priorities*
)* not that fdev will do any of them anyway
Nice excuse to go visit the graveyard anyway - in full sun for a change : last time I visited it was a bit gloomy so worth the trip at the moment
i very distinctly remember the first tourist beacon i ever saw in the game: it was for ice geysers. poi in the middle of nowhere. no geysers to be seen anywhere. now after a couple of years i have to say that really set the tone for the game...
theres also one engineer that has its signal wrong (you can see the city from supercruise but navcomp guides you few km away, fixes itself after drop) and just this past week ive seen a couple of regular surface poi being not at the place navcomp was guiding me to(moved a few km)
Elite is a fabulous game, but Frontier tends to play with our emotions.
At the same time that I provide the joy of the dangerous elite, it also provides the sad silence of her presence in the forum she created, what can we say about the Reddit or Steam forums....

No interactivity.
Well, that's certainly a way to view it.
You could add
"Does anything work, why is my system on fire at 18FPS" in there too.
ETA:
For me. I enjoyed the hell out of legs and after 9 months of updates even found the performance enjoyable enough. But there was never much really added to that foundation. Lots of potential but after the same missions 100 times over again it lost the fun. I really liked the later defend cargo missions because they were difficult and good reason to team up but again... nothing more. It's been about 7 months since I stopped playing and I've never really come back in.
Its provided 1000's of hours of gameplay for me so I'm not downing it too much but I don't love the way the war thing went. Just a continual stream of modules to grind more mats to get other modules to grind different mats. Once I stepped out, within a few updates I was too far behind that curve to care to go back to it. I was hoping for some more legs content for the war but have given up that hope of late.

This exacly was I did meant about whole thing.
Glad you went there, to actually confirm those wrecks are over there in oddy. Ive seen bit of reports both on forums and reddit, well as even at issue tracker, that ppl complain about wrecks being missing, and I would never myself would bother to check it out. Seen enough flat mountains or flat craters in oddy, well as missing Maia 5c barnacle, bunch of other things too, to have any doubts whenever its true or not. I assumed its gone, according to reports I saw.
I already far beyond having any hopes or "priorities" for this game... apart of what will be broken next in case of next update.
If anything, I guess its way more realistic to expect from devs they would fix something like this, than having dreams about elw or interiors. In end, not like there is many those beacons that are misleading, just a few, compared to thier number or what they are "pointing" at.
Atleast we both agree on something.* not that fdev will do any of them anyway
0543-0619 - I take that some of these was what you meant by that... These beacons was added, as pre-oddy those geo pois was not spread planet-wide(left panel pointers to these was added later than these beacons as well), and every each these beacons was placed by devs (of course following cmdrs imput first on dedicated thread) in order for players have easier time checkin these out. And yes, back then, if there was surface tourist beacon, wich did mention of something local, it was next to said thing.
But I guess its no longer relevant in oddy, due of how drastically things got changed after oddy relase. I guess your view is kind of valid for these. But some of these beacons are middle of nowhere and thats fact.
My whole point was that these things should be next to beacons, as thats how they where added in first place... If you have still doubts, go check these:
0020,0032,0063,0073,0533,0646 - go visit those in oddy, and see what my point was about.

Agree with what you're saying but having visited them all i still never got the feeling something was missing.
I see the beacons as pointers to locations or events, not an actual 'its here'.
However my original point still stands, there's plenty to do in Elite.

Oh, Imo, it ended last year already. There is still development?
