And someday, it will be a release! Can't wait

This is just Phase 1 BETA and they released quite a bit; really hoping it's scratching the surface of what is coming in 2.4.

So this patch is the .... let me count... fourth attempt to get missions right, adds irrelevant bounties to griefers (so all the promises from Sandro in this thread https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php/349769-Deliberate-Ramming turned out to be not happening), adds holo-me saves, does not add the Panther Clipper or any other ship, and is mostly bugfixes?

The update is mostly about the Thargoids but that content isn't in the beta. Hard to judge the worth of an update without seeing what it really is.

So far yes, it was 2.4: Route Plotting.

But Ed said more things were to come in the next beta releases.

And the ghoids content will be after release only.

The first stage beta has now closed Commander.

Some time in the next few days it is expected to reopen with phase 2.

Oh cool, I take that back then. Thargoid update obviously has no business in the beta.

I am still disappointed Sandro once again fails to deliver a proper law system and instead "improves" an irrelevant aspect of the one we already have.

Oh I'm not disappointed at all, he is consistent with bogus decisions. I also simply love the "magical SJW fairy" idea that will make you philosophically wonder during supercruise to Hutton "why is it okay with the magic SJW fairy to smuggle 100t of imperial slaves, but its not okay to shoot clean imperial slaveRs, especially if they are flying lesser ship then you". Also why doesn't fairy care about NPCs?

Instead of devising a system which could be beneficial to all players but harder to do, he choose mvp as always, can tick a checkmark on the checklist and be done with it.

There is no way to reactivate the sound for the shield cell bank...there is no sound anymore...that´s horrible becouse ilts leave uncentain if you activate or not...leave a option to hear the sound again...so we can choose it...thanks.

What's going on with the heat cannons? Are they being patched?
