Patch Notes Update Elite: Dangerous 1.3.02 incoming

[Zphinx]

Hello everyone,


- Reduced the amount of wear damage taken from emergency super cruise drops
- Reduced the amount of wear damage taken when interdicted



Thanks guys!

Will the wear damage still be the same for jumping into other system as it was in 1.3, and 1.3.0.1 as that is insane also, it would remain the same for jumping 4 or 5 system and still be 114000cr.... we need a bit more information how this is calculated so that we can prevent it from happening.
It would also be cool to understand what it means when your ship integrity reaches 0... what is the impact on that? what are the penalties? What happens to the paint job when it reaches 0? Do I see my ship oxidizing (that would be a cool effect btw).

Thanks for letting us know

British Summer Thyme, Currently 17:35 at time of writing, servers be up in 25 minutes unless it gets delayed again.

= UTC +1 (or GMT +1 in old speak)

OK your fixing some things, good, but why not put an indicator on the launcher to say if the server is up or down
It saves having to log into the game to find out your doing an upgrade and find out the bloody thing is down (again) >.<

And this is why these notices really need to be in UTC and not a local daylight saving time (BST).

This was at 6:03 PM my local time, which is gmt +2, so around 7?

Sorry for the silly question, but what time zone is this?

- Fix for the various intensities of RES locations. High, normal and low now mean high skill, medium skill and low skill, which they didn't before

Excellent. But skill in what? Combat, mining, conversation?

I think skill refers to a combination of the NPC combat rank and ship types.

Just go here and take a look at the clock...takes 2 seconds to google 'BST'

my main gripe with controls for ED is constantly locking/unlocking my headview to look around my ship.

Have you tried/thought about head tracking software and/or hardware (TrackIR/FaceTrackNoIR etc.)?

Keep this thread open on a tab in your browser. I bet one of my Pulse Lasers that the "IT'S UP GUISE"-posts will be coming quick when it's back up.

I think thats CET

The lack of professionalism by FD continues to floor me. Do you not realize that half the world does not even know what CET is... Please use GMT so we all speak the same language (at least timewise

Sweet! but still no change to medium docking port launch speed?

It was fixed in 1.3 to be instant launch. You only get blast shields if you have been in the hangar.

I use ED Tracker myself. Can't see myself ever playing the game without it again.

If you do not have it you do not want it
If you have it you want to catch it
If you caught it you want to get rid of it .

Guess what it is.

ED Update (-patch) ?

[Verz]

when will servers be back up?

ETA is now 6pm BST.

 

[Merthin]

Time given by the Devs, Is currently British Summer Time (BST) which is GMT+1

BST always starts on the last Sunday of March and ends the last Sunday of October. I know that one of these dates for daylight saving is the same in the USA and the other differs by a week but I can't remember which one is which.

If you are used to working in UTC then BST = UTC+1.

Learn then - do something useful with the time the servers are down.

And I am not an FD employee, so you can take your accusations of my unprofessionalism, and - reconsider them.
