If you were monitoring the BGS, why the hell didn't you notice the double or even triple ticks, the upto 36 hour delay between updates, and the different results displayed EDO and EDH.

Doesn't need a balance, it needs fixing

It may also need a rebalance if anticipated effects of ambient traffic are different now.

why are there no starport to starport missions ? I know the split dual world instance issue and timeline .... but from Odyssey we still should be able to use starports after all and not just planet based everything. secondly i see ax bonds got brought back to current credit levels however ship to ship bounties are still at the old pre-balance levels that to should be addressed.

I take it you mean from the terminals inside the station ? there are station to station mission if you access them in the in ship menu ( although that UI is now horrific )

Greetings Commanders.

With the launch of Elite Dangerous: Odyssey, we have been monitoring the effects it has had in relation to the Background Simulation.

We have been collating Commander gameplay data throughout the last week. Using this data, we will be making changes today to balance out the effects Odyssey missions have on the Background Simulation This will bring them in line with existing mission effects in Horizons.

We are aware of a number of concerns raised from player communities around the impact Odyssey has had on the Background Simulation. We will continue to monitor this closely going forwards.

These changes will take effect as of 15:00 UTC / 16:00 BST today.

Fly safe, Commanders o7

Yeah, but can you sort out the torch? Feeling your way through a blacked out building with a torch that flashes intermittently is doing my head in. :)

Still love yah, though FD. XXX

And for the record, I think Odyssey is bloody great, temporary warts and all.

yes that is what i meant and thank you for the clarification on a bad design choice and just maybe they should be at all terminals. ship bounties still need to be brought up to current levels

Yeah it seems crazy that the mission screens are not identical inside and outside the station , not everyone wants to get out of the ship at every station especially if you are working BGS as time wasted is valuable "INF" lost or gained

I'm guessing they tweak the anarchy factions - most of them have seen a big dip in influence over the past week - to get less affected by actions or gain more influence more easily

Does this mean you'll be fixing / clarifying Archon Delaines R5 bonus issues? At R5 your bounties are set at 0 after each murder / attack / fine....however it also negates any BGS impact of that action too.

Can we have some more info please? Just for a change? It's been so long since @Dav Stott told us anything. :/

https://elitebgs.app/tick shows a tick at 0409 BST that finished at 0712 BST

No sign of one at the time stated ? Was a tick not supposed to happen then just a server update ?

And what about the wars that failed to deliver the systems/stations that people have won ?

Optimize the game, textures, performance and so on as Horizons or better PLZ. Even with a powerfull Computer the game is bugged. Yesterday when i disembarked on Rostler Station, when on foot in the Hangar the game started to break...
