Patch Notes Update Elite Dangerous: Beyond - Chapter One 3.0

[vindelanos]

Either way shouldn't it be changed to being able to pay off low amount bouties?

Nah. Crime is crime.

They are looking at the threshold for friendly fire. But beyond that shoot a turret, fire a hatchbraker, scan a private beacon, and you're committing a felony. Own it.

Gentlemen, it is vood to listen to galnet on the radio, but... Is an Italian version planned in the next future?

I really enjoyed it. It was much more engaging.

Hope you guys get your Italian version.

Own it? It seems that playing legally gets a fine according to forums. I have a lot to learn. AGAIN .....

Passenger missions in Amun are 50% nerfed this way:
Mission reward is the same but passenger number per mission is about 200%,
Therefore my cabins are full with only 2-3 missions stacked instead of 4-5 before 3.0
Struggling to make 5MCr per run where 10MCr was pedestrian before,
OK I know that's life...

Data material payouts are only giving me "1" material per. For example, I scan a data uplink and get Cracked Industrial Firmware, I only receive "1" at a time. Is this change intentional?

 

[Mike Reacher]

What do you mean?

The threads that mention so many actions in the game, playing and working as intended, have become a no-no! Lucky I mostly trade, so I guess I wont be doing missions such as scanning any time soon.
Unless FD want to turn the game into a criminal free for all!

I don't do passengers but checked their missions tonight.
I saw that to do huge-time missions with a reasonable distance would net less than my trade Python in an hour. (If I don't get interdicted I can make over 10 mil cr in an hour)
These prices could be system specific. I don't know.

And trade seems to be weird. 4500 tons to the next system can net as low as 600,00 cr. And (maybe) as high as 2 or 3 mil. How long to take that stuff in a 200 ton hold? Too damn long.
This thread is for 3.0, so I will mention that doing trade missions gives the option of getting up to 5 grade 3 mats. (there will be big variations in this. I did get 2 grade 5 mats once)

But that trade mission is maybe 2-3 runs for a wing of heavy haulers, 8 for a wing of 200 tonne capacity ships which is probably too long for most of us.

What next? ABS in space? Oh wait, we already got that. It's called FA On...

Nope...it is called,at least in 21st century "fly-by-wire"

Guys/Gals, Just because the one system you normally take passenger/cargo/etc missions from appears to be paying less, TODAY, doean't mean FD have 'nerfed' that thing across the whole game ... some days are better than others, things fluctuate. Elsewhere in the same game you're playing, others are making just as much and more doing those same mission types...

And experience from previous updates, it takes a few days to a week for the mission servers to catch up. It's usually a bit crappy just after an upgrade or patch.

Anyone had issues with close binaries? I ended up between 2 yesterday (after flying though one of the stars!) and it got pretty toasty. I've posted a bug report as this hasn't happened during 2.4.

 

[Alanthier]

Uhh...passenger mission payouts were nerfed a good 200% you mean. I was making anywhere from 200-600k on tourist runs(non vip) for normal passenger trips, now the most i've seen if i'm lucky is 120k.

I had one too - I got that fuel scooping sound that gets the heart racing

The drop in point was too far away before & the criteria has been tweaked. Hopefully it'll only drop you in a safer location if it's really dangerous now. The one I had woke me up a bit, but my ship wasn't actually at risk.

51 years old? Deserves well a little absence

bonjour Patrick, actually we're 70; dated 3 years in High School, married when 20, and been together none stop since. Thanks for the Rep, back atcha. Post attempted to express my sincere appreciation for doing a great job; a habit I formed centuries ago and practice in both personal and professional circles--gives back more than you put in to it. FD upped their game and seems their players appreciated it. Next to the game I find reading these posts most helpful, which, I surmise is a result of the quality of gamers that are drawn to ED. Thanks for your posts as well, adds a lot to the player base, o7 Cmdr.

Well supply missions are also weird IMO:
Took a 7MCr wing mission consisting in sourcing 900t of tobacco,
Did this alone as it was just 2 round trips with my Cutter,
Then I've selected reward as "money + mats" option,
Final profit was 0Cr + 3 exquisite focus cristals...
I guess I am a very silly trader,
Luckily I did not need to split these 3 mats will wingmembers!

Hope so because yesterday was total crap too,
Time for me to travel to Colonia...

Yeah. Seems far too close now. I'm checking the galaxy map before every jump!

It happened to me some weeks ago. Thus it doesn't seem to be specific for this patch.
