Elite Dangerous Community Schedule W/C 7 June 2021

[Zac Cocken]

Greetings Commanders!

We're into June now, and with it, we're kicking off a brand new initiative to recognise some of our most dedicated players - more details on that below! Aside from that, it's going to be another packed week of community activity, so here's the schedule:

Tuesday

Supercruise News #36: Supercruise News returns on Tuesday - we'll be discussing the Odyssey roadmap, our plans for communication going forward, and sharing all the highlights from the community.

Wednesday

Stellar Screenshots: We're always looking for great screenshots, and Wednesday is the day to get yours submitted using the #StellarScreenshots hashtag!

ED Elite Club: We want to start celebrating some of the achievements of our most dedicated Commanders! Starting this week, we'll be sharing the tweets of Commanders who celebrate their newly reached Elite (or Triple Elite) rank using the hashtag #EDEliteClub on our own social accounts. So all you need to do is grab a screenshot showing off your new rank, and post it with the hashtag!

Thursday

Odyssey Conflict Zones: It's time to suit up and tackle some Odyssey Conflict Zones for the first time since launch, with a full arsenal of weapons now available! What carnage will ensue?

Odyssey Update 3: The next update for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey is due on Thursday!

Friday

Commander Creations: Checking out the wonderful creations from our community is one of the highlights of our week, so keep them coming using the hashtag #CommanderCreations!

[Animage]

And again we gonna have a claim that development and social part of the game are two different instances, but behold!! On Thursday we have the update and that's on the same page as the other social things...

 

[Animage]

Also zero reaction to the outburst of replies and comments on the "rOaD mAp" thread

Do we have to use social media? What about these forums?

Glad to hear, I sincerely hope it will continue throughout the whole future development of Odyssey. Thank you

Yes.

[...] What about these forums?

Doesn't really work for marketing.

 

[Elfener]

IIRC they said on a livestream that there will be a forum thread for this as well, any info on that @Zac Cocken?

 

[Tyres O'Flaherty]

Yes.

Doesn't really work for marketing.

Social media doesn't work for me. I think I have a FB account somewhere but I'm buggered if I'm signing up for all that other rubbish!

The issue you have with the non-roadmap roadmap is that quite a few people have now concluded that Odyssey will be the final update for Elite Dangerous and the game will be just kept on maintenance mode until it is no longer profitable there after. I personally assumed that the 32% positive rating on steam would improve somewhat after the initial release as a large number of fans would give FDev the benefit of the doubt and post positive reviews to counter the negative ones but they haven't (which says a lot).

Just out of curiousity, what people are saying this and how do they know?

Don't worry, I'm happy you mentioned it. Clear communication is better. At least we know that way that you are working on it.

Go read the "rOaD mAp" thread on these forums

Or just have a good chuckle and read this one instead!

State of the Game

If FDev are going to constantly bring hot fixes out and now a large patch and planets still arnt rendered, why not just scrap the game.

we'll be discussing the Odyssey roadmap

Which of many fixes and improvements will you be discussing first?
