Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 7 Notes

I wonder if my other account has been banned for some reason - now when I try to enter I see this

Any ideas? (in addition to banning this other account as well - I love so much the game I have 2 - actually 3, one is "dormant" at the moment waiting for a good time to activate it)
Cheers (so to speak)
 
I look forward to the day when Frontier release a new expansion and the British Rail Sandwich is Odyssey :D

Edit: I'll add that I seriously doubt we'll get another expansion for Elite.
And it'll probably look delicious (if they survive the Odyssey debacle and manage to rush push out another expansion)
 
That popcorn is going to expire long before the merge happens.
Well, you actually might be right, since they started breaking patching horizons, and they're saying there are more QoL patches coming for it, i guess they don't expect to be able to merge the clients anytime soon.

Forum rules ?
Only allowed one account.... that'll be it.
 
I know this is kind of "are we there yet?", but since U7 hasn't done anything to improve my VR performance, is there any hints when U8 will arrive?

Regarding performance in U7, I get ~45 fps with Reverb G2, RTX 3070 OC and 3950x at LOW settings. I thought that might be a good starting point for tinkering with the settings, but it does seem sort of a waste of time until some radical optimization happens.
 
You're showing me screenshots between Odyssey and Horizons here so there will be differences at this point, but I can double check of course. Are these the exact same locations and positionings to stars and such too? The issue that was fixed in Odyssey was that the pad lighting and basic top part of the carrier itself were MASSIVELY overblown and all shades of incorrect.

@sallymorganmoore since my screenshots apparently failed to illustrate my point, I made a video with control measures in place (same system, planet, time, etc..)

Already onnnnnnnnnnn the case. Collected all of the reports so far so bear with me :)
Can you tell me what you did before going into the menu please?
Just landed on carrier and was not able to access menus. Was doing Foot Conflict Zones before returning to carrier. (seems suspended services is the issue, so now I have to pay credits and keep services active so I can use the carrier)

Nope. I expected that for late October/early November, but i kinda hope they take their time to late November (or not, the final result might not be that different), since after that i'll decide if EDO is F.U.B.A.R., if they don't show a very noticeable improvement in optimizations (i don't expect it to be totally fixed of course, but they have to show they can actually do something effective about it)

Adding enforcers was the dumbest idea ever. Conflict zones are too difficult now. Even with G5 gear. Who was the monkey responsible?
Suits are not resistant against explosives even with engineering.
Stupidest idea ever.
I understand that against abusers in SRV was necessary, but against people is plain stupid. We use lasers, they use rockets. Who is going to win, guess.
The one playing with D2EA's "Iron Man" suit, I guess? Much harder to hit a flying target with rockets.
