Ok. I guess my expectations are just a bit lower seeing as I understand what goes into making a game; somewhat understand it as when I look at the file structure of this one, I just shake my head in amazement. I've always been of the opinion to truly appreciate something you have to actually do it. Cooking, for example. To truly appreciate the food you have to actually cook food. Or you have to play music to truly appreciate it. Just my opinion, of course. But I've written code before; oh, nothing of this complexity, but I understand that sometimes a bug is found and you look at the code and look at the code and look at the code and are going, "What in the holy **** is going on here? Code looks good, but there is clearly a mistake somewhere. And you just don't see it. I've seen 2 and 3 people look at such a problem and they started to think it might just be hardware, but all the HW Diags report no problem. Bugs like that do happen and it is extremely frustrating.

I know it's a complex Code Monster what they've achieved. I just wish a bit more direct communication bout the progress.
Even if they would say 'Sorry guys, but we'll not release a patch till we found and fixed bug blah.'
You know. Something. I'd be way less frustrated if i knew what was going on.
If they come up with new Bobbleheads or Paintjobs instead of fixing or optimizing (sure, could be different peeps working on)
it's like a slap in the face.
Like 'Hey, we know, it's buggy as hell, but here, have some new Shiney for some Dollars!'
 
Yeah it would be cool if the bug reporting forum had status on the thread, like:

CONFIRMED (checked and confirmed by F D QA dept)
FIXED (ready for next release)

Although obviously don't want to add to the existing workload.
 
I agree. I'm ready to give money for this game, every years if needed, but not without a clear roadmap, for the patchs and the add-ons.

But, maybe the team is bunt out, and in holidays.

So, currently, i'm waiting what's going on, and i will see later.

The latest newsletter said, that there will be a life stream next week, where they will show some of the things to come. I am really looking forward to it.
In the meantime, i enjoy some planetary landings. I just love Horizons so far.
 
I´m sorry for posting here but couldn't find any where else to do it. Today around 10PM I tried to launch the game and got this error

Are you on Comcast by any chance? Their DNS servers seem to periodically have trouble with frontier.co.uk addresses. I was able to get it to work reliably by manually changing my DNS server in Windows to 8.8.8.8.

Well I don't know what is Comcast (I'm from Portugal) but I take it must be a problem with the DNS?? For about 3 or 4 years I've been using google DNS both on IPv4 and IPv6 and so far haven't had any problems. What is strange is that I can go to forums, but the support page can't login, the shop also error message. I even have a fixed IP on my PC because I don't want my PC to change the IP due to some configurations in router (open ports and port forwarding) due to some games that have better connections. Maybe I'll try resetting the DNS or the internet card. I've checked the router and is as should be! When I get home at night I'll check and leave some feedback here!!

Cool, I lay great hope in the next release, mainly for a major fix. If there are also the characterization with a mission system improved, fantastic! :)
I could finally play again seriously.

Today launched the game and all was normal!?!? Didn't do anything, only turned on the PC launched the launcher and game on!! No modifications to the PC nothing!!! Strange! Thanks fpr the help Patrick_68000
 
Ah, sorry, I didn't realize where you were. Here in the US we have an internet service provider called Comcast that's known for their rampant incompetence and frequent network issues.


No harm done!! I figured as much just didn't know what country would it be in!! Portuguese IPS are quite reliable, just a bit pricey for cable service, the all provide fiber connections but strange as it may be, normal cable service is better then fiber:rolleyes: ! I've been offered the services I have but with fiber optic at same price but said no because there are fewer people with this type of connection and of course it becomes more stable and less and less lag!! But anyway, have you fixed your problem?? Like I said in my previous post the next when I restarted my PC the launcher worked fine!!

FD, pretty please, give us a mini patch fixing the broken missions.
I just threw more monies at ya, bought a bobblehead and another PJ.
Loving this second life, erm, game, but those bugs are so damn annoying and immersion breaking...
Please. Or just tell us when to expect the next patch, a rough ETA would be fine.
 
I am hoping to actually drive my SRV forwards *and* actually FIT under the ASP. Both of these operations seem to be challenging. I spent 20 minutes just today trying to get moving forward and then fitting under the low-sitting ASP. Yesterday it was closer to 30 minutes of this "why did you get out of your ship?" mini-game. I don't plan to get out again until both of these are resolved.

You must be on some very un-level terrain. I have an Asp and I have no problem getting out or back in. The SRV fits under the asp (barely) but it does fit.
