@sallymorganmoore I am getting plummeting abysmal frame rates getting near a planetary settlement, or leaving it (ie aiming 90 degrees at the sky with no planet visible at all - only sky).
CPU is not busy at all, GPU is 60%, using 6GB ram (I have 8GB), disk io is not occurring that I can tell. Running at 1080 with most stuff on high. Didn't have this issue in update 6 at all.

Repeatable in Asura system, heading towards Ibanez's Burrow. Drops from 60fps to 35 to 3fps (!) and takes 30 seconds (?) to recover.

On leaving the settlement and aiming at the sky, flying upwards into space (before entering super cruise) the same happens. Truly absymal frame rates even though I am looking at the sky - no planetary terrain.
On entering super cruise it appears to "fix" itself after a bit.

Walking around the settlement was smooth but approaching and leaving was utterly horrendous and the worst frame rates I've had in Odyssey, even since initial release.

EDIT: GPU is actually 100%. Same happens if you approach Sanctuary in the same Asura system. Same happens if you walk into the engineer's workshop - stood facing Petra and appalling framerates. Same happens if you then go to Sanctuary's concourse/bar - 3fps but the GPU is only 6% and it's a constant 3fps stood looking at the bar....

Thank you for so much info here. Can I trouble you for yourrrr DxDiag maybe? You can DM it to me in an attachment if you have a moment (and don't mind, of course :))

Hi Sally, just tried out one of the planets near Beagle Point, noticed the following (no, didn't check all 30 pages if this has been reported so sorry if this was already mentioned):

Floating rocks. No, not actual floating in the air rocks. This was noticed on the SRV scanner.
3D884D9FBCEAB5FFC66D78730D236A2BBF55642B

Note it shows the item is above me. It is actually under me.

Noted something similar on my ship when returning for departure from the surface:
E3C702C68257558D2FB701FF64A079B9DF73B6DF

I realize that I'm in a crater but the ship is on the same level as me. There shouldn't be an indicator that it's hovering several meters above me.

Frame rates: Still having an issue watching this number vary from 55 to 35 depending on which way I'm looking. On approach there was a huge amount of visual stuttering. Tried using normal view as well as "heat map" view, no difference - if it's going to stutter, it'll stutter.
Did notice that once I got about 3 or 4 km the frame rate picked back up.
1D080BEBD11BC2956169C2A35945FDD2C0A5748F

Love the textures. Would love the frame-rate number shown in this last image to show up on the ground. Even if it's never going to be possible, 50-55 fps would be a serious improvement. And I'm not going to get to see the inside of a station for another few months. BTW, the station I'm heading to is Jaques Station. It would be nice to see him tending bar (hint hint). :)

Thanks for all your help with this, Sally! We appreciate you being here and putting up with us. I know we can be … trying at times.
I, myself, have had to herd cats once in a while.

Hahah I can appreciate at this point that you're all not going to trawl back to see who's reporting what, so don't you worry.
Yep, grabbed the "floating scanner rocks" yesterday so that's under my belt - the rest of your feedback is reall helpful and awesome too. Thanks so much.

Do you think someone deleted the source code by accident and Frontier are having to reverse engineer everything?

LOL, no. That would be terrible.

Allegedly that is what happened with one game that i bought. It was EA and didn't play it much. Then devs said they had lost (some of?) the source code and rereleased it after some time as free but without multiplayer or something. No idea if this was a load of tosh from the devs and they were covering up that they couldn't deliver on the multiplayer part.

Walking on stations for shopping breaks fps in space AGAIN. As it was in patch 4. Like 120-180 fps down to 20-30.
Game complete reload fixes.
P.S. I feel like talk-to-NPC breaks fps, but not sure for sure :D

EDIT: Just docked POISSON ORBITAL into KAPPA system. Used market - sell/buy - undock. Broken FPS. Didn't go to walk.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmaaarrrg...what is doing this....
Would you mind DMing me your DxDiag please? Im really sorry that I'm doing this to people but gotta try whatever at this point.

It was EA so yea for sure it was the latter.

If only you thought about at least adding a few ships (in a space ship I wouldn't be stupid that). Or give us 5000 Arx every time you force folks full game size updates. all 24 hours before the break on Thursday instead of doing it at the same time.

Would giving people free money and more ships have prevented any of the bugs raised in the update?

Also, 5GB isn't a full-size update.

iirc EDO is about 60GB, if you want full game size updates plat COD warzone 60-70GB updates were common after launch.

I havent checked previous posts yet or submitted a ticket but...

I was mining in my corvette earlier and quite often on deploying a limpet, i would hear the audio, but no limpets would launch. The audio of the limpet launcher was continually sounding, but no limpets would appear. This happened about 6 times in the hour I was on. To do a quick fix without having to relog, simply do a reboot and repair, that clears the dead limpets and gets you back going until the next time.
thanks for the many fixes and QOL improvements.
