Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Update 8 / Horizons Update | 27 October discussion

[sallymorganmoore]

Greetings Commanders.

Right, listen up!
There are a lot of threads, a lot going on all over the place - let's condense it down to this thread of discussion so all eyes can hopefully be in one spot to farm and gather feedback on today's updates as we go, following deployment.

Today is pretty impactful in terms of what's gone into the game, so here to listen and report around.

Trying to stay out of bloating the update note threads where things dotted about all over the place could get potentially missed and such, so let's see how this works.

Thanks!

NPC hitboxes are too large, and prevent me from getting close enough to use the point emote to pick their noses

In old Horizons I can save different flight suits I've bought for different occasions. In Odyssey only one flight suit is possible. Why?

In Odyssey camera I can't see flight suits decals. I've reported it, the ticket "expired" - in whom's IT world bugs disappear by expiring?

There is a lot of sentiment regarding the console update on the Horizons Pc/Console update thread among others, to try and keep things positive it appears to be working ok. Will not attempt to rehash what other people have said here but there does seem to be quite a bit of disappointment, maybe mismanaged expectations, but hey it's working (positive) and my new elite career as plumber is calling . From my pov the work that went into this update is appreciated. o7

Webster Excavation Complex (also Tir) also slow
Huber Metallurgical Enterprise (also Tir)

Video of Huber: Before Patch 7 this was about seamless - now there's a 25 second black period on disembark

I have a mission...

And I can deliver him the stuff over and over but he doesn't actually take the goods/complete the mission. He also seems to be having some... rendering issues

The body language is spot on though.

Bit of an update on this - I have killed Ed, relogged and successfully delivered the package to an alternative universe Ed.

Oh flip haha, I was about to ask you if you could provide a video too if poss!
If it happens again can I be proper cheeky and ask if you could video it and send any netlogs to me in a DM please?

The Colonia on-foot engineers are not unlocking.

They are greyed out, and stay that way after jumping to another system, re-logging and restarting the client.

Trying to complete the unlock requirement doesn't help, I'm already Allied with the Colonia Council (needs Friendly), have visted 7 settlements in the Colonia system (needs 5) since the patch went live, and have sold 10 Cocktail Recipes. Nothing changed.

GALNET BREAKING NEWS.
EDO confirmed to still, in fact, be EDO.
Players baffled.
