Thank you Sally, can you also mark multi-limpet controllers weight values as a point of note?
Ah yes sorry!! I do have a LOT of notes on that feedback.
I'll be chatting about it more AS feedback to look into addressing as oppose to the gamebreaking kinds of things in this thread. There's a fine line you see, here and there hee.

The ranges also do not match. 3B Operations Controller says it has range of 3100m and yet I have to get closer- below 1500m - for the limpets to work.
Can it be rolled back to pre-upate 9 and then re-released once it has been tested and fixed?
It wasn't entirely unexpected to be fair; what is the phrase? "Never play on patch day"?...A dissapointing release with many issues, old ones have resurfaced, new ones introduced. I would rather that the issues were fixed before introducing new features, but that's just me... There are 27,000 issues in the tracker (a lot of duplicates and many fixed to be fair) and so there's a bit of work to be done first. I'm sure there are hundreds of players more than willing to Alpha/Beta test prior to general release.
To chuck my tuppenyworth in I also CTD when trying to change hardpoints in Outfitting and also lost all firegroup settings. I haven't checked for issues in Odyssey yet, I find it too untrustworthy. I keep checking the forums to see when new fixes get released but, despite paying for the DLC, I rarely play it and so I'll wait until the new, even grindier material gathering/engineering loop gets a buff and basic gameplay issues get resolved but for now I shall remain in the relative safety of Horizons..... Oh wait, I can't change any loadouts...Oh well...
And another thing...
I just don't understand the business sense of releasing half-baked new content. I understand that they want to draw in new players and encourage current players to upgrade but unfortunately all they seem to have done is disenchant the console sector by dangling a carrot that seems to be moving further away and frustrate the PC player base by releasing effectively a new game (Odyssey) without performing the minimum of QA, Alpha and Beta testing. They are in danger of losing the trust of the entire ED community. I don't mind waiting for a finished product, I just want a quality product and clarity of information. Just manage my expectations please.
Are they being takenover by Bethesda?

Also: one would think that the Cyberpunk2077 fiasco would be a lesson for everybody. DO NOT RELEASE UNFINISHED PRODUCT. The backlash will be a killer.
 
Has anyone else experienced an absolutely catastrophic drop in frame rate when landing at a settlement? (literally at the last minute as you're about to touch down on the pad). I've had this at every settlement I've been to (about 5 different ones) since update 9. The on-screen Ctrl+F framerate shows about 38fps but what I experience is easily less than 1fps. My headtracking stops working completely, the ship completely freezes at weird angles and the controls and UI become completely unresponsive. This situation lasts for at least a minute or more before finally clearing itself.
 
Have noticed a considerable drop around settlements over update 8. Not as bad as yours and it doesn't go away but I need to test more, only landed at one last night so far.

Don't think it's ever lasted a minute, but I think I've never not had this (ie, been suffering it since release).
 
Cant see it mentioned here but there is a major problem re combat.
I opened a thread under discussions yesterday as follows

Ships attacking not showing colour change​


Just been hunting pirates at a res.
When attacked not able to determine who is attacking me as all ship markers shown as yellow rather than the flashing white when you are being attacked.
Ship I am attacking shows just red.
Target next hostile etc doesn't target anything even when my shields are dropping like hell.
Is this a bug or am I missing something?

I have had a number of people saying it is a serious problem as it makes pirate hunting almost impossible.
Can it be fixed as a matter of urgency as it is not just a cosmetic problem
 
Other Issues:
-All fire groups deleted.
Not totally, but still a "little" game breaking.

-STORAGE tab(for Odyssey mats) on systems(right side) panel visible but greyed out(of course) in Horizons.
Shouldn't be there at all. Surely no real problem, but surely not intended either.

Both Problems exist for a lot of discord members. Definitely not only for me.
 
Thargoid hunting Pleiades Sector PD-S B4-0.
Collecting Thargoid hunting missions, leaving station, and then targeting Nav Beacon, the marker on Nav Beacon disappears when entering supercruise.
Dropping into a Non-Human threat site, setting speed to 75% goes to 75% of the ENTIRE range, instead of 75% of current max speed.

Thank you! If at all possible, please check some of the suggestions from this thread
 
The only other one I noticed a few times yesterday was traffic hold-ups at the mail slot. All at Jameson Memorial so I don't know of others are affected.
It stems from 1 ship which has seemingly just left the mail slot and is now stuck there rubber-banding back and forth. This causes other NPC ships to wait on the inside and outside.

It was on my stream of last night but I don't have a timestamp but can get it if FDev are interested.
 
I'm just saying that I opened stored modules and it didn't crash. How can you say it applies to everyone? Are you implying that I am lying?
Same here, last night I reset my fire groups on my DBX - moved my carrier to an Admin system - flew to Shinrata and purchased a Scorpion, selling my scarab via outfitting, even tried swapping modules to see if I could get 2 SRVs but decided against in and swapped them back - flew to my FC and got rid of my Black Market (just eating money!). Swapped out a cargo hold on the DBX and flew to a planet surface - played with my Scorpion, tried to scan some Bacteria (known bug). Boarded scorpion then DBX - returned to Carrier and then real life got in the way and I had to log off. I had fun!

I've seen this.

I've also commented about it (roughly) in this thread with an update on additional issues and additional info as to why I can't update this list on the fly with this post https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threa...-immediate-issues-of-note.595269/post-9646803

Please can other Commanders continuing to alert me I've missed things off the OP I did give me some of the time needed to "do my thang". I see you, but I just want to get things done so sometimes can't reply to every single one of you, I truly am ultra sorry on that one. I am reading I promise.

This rubs me the wrong way. Like you, I haven't had a crash in outfitting, but I'm not arguing with or dismissing the players who are experiencing this issue-one look at the forum and it's clearly affecting many across both games and platforms!
