Well, no, this has never happened before... I'm used to painfully slow updates for sure... but never not getting past the preparation stage. Not an ISP problem on account of, well, still being to do this post.
Elite Dangerous | Update 13 Notes

Well, that was fun. I was previously docked at Bright Sentinel last night and took a seat in the bar, and i just started the game, saw the cut sequence and immediately after ended up back in my ship close to Bright Sentinel. Then a load of Thargons appeared out of nowhere and kicked the crap out of me, back to rebuy screen...
Nice.
Nice.
I only had the FSD booster installed and was in my AspX with no weapons...
Cancel the upgrade & validate files.
I did, only because i went to nosey at the that thing on that planet
Got beaten to a pulp by some unknown thargoid i didnt even see!

Did you have any Guardian tech? I had an FSD booster and it definitely didn't fly away peacefully...
4th reload of the launcher, this is probably the cause... ostensibly the update was launched before the launcher was updated
Though for future reference, how do I validate files through the launcher? I don't use steam for Elite.
That cinematic and the eerie log-in is some of the scariest, most hypest things I've experienced in Elite.
Damned be my curiosity afterwards though! I tempted fate, nevermind fate however, because the thargoids took care of me before fate could even respond.

I have no Guardian tech and i got 'sploded after landing on 10A
After reviewing the patch notes, I have only a few questions and commentary:
- Cool, likely understated change
- What does this mean? Is it just additional voice lines, is it a new HUD element, or does it change anything regarding attributed kills whilst having an AI crew member use an SLF? (You know, like removing the XP reduction penalty for having one.)
- When will a change to the demonstrably superior quality DX12 or Vulkan renderers be made? Is such a change at least being investigated? The jaggies are killing me, man. (If we are already on DX12 or Vulkan, then, well...why are the jaggies still here in this game and not other ones?)

I was already in the concourse when I logged out last night. I loaded into a broken, red lights flashing crippled tangled mess, fires and sparks going off everywhere. Couldn't move, crouch jump ...Nothing. Cool though. Then after 5 mins my air ran out, then died, at the rebuy screen my Vulture was costing zero to redeploy. Then I found myself on a pad. launched and got the hell out of there as a huge energy burst appeared and the goids (well one biggie) came in for lunch. Got killed on my escape, and reappeared after the rebuy back at Wyrd. Very cool.

Same here except DBX - seems to be a Horizons vs Odyssey thing

Are you still experiencing this, Marvin?
Guys, this is not joke... Actually managed to reach... 60 fps on low settings in settlements! (the big kind of)

Some type of settlements like the smaller kind still drop in frames, especially when it's the day cycle on the said part of the planet.
Holy we might actually see decent performance improvements after all.

It seems that the launcher update resets "Enable Virtual Cache" option which has been freezing any upgrade attempts for me since medieval times. I re-disabled it and the update started immediately.
All I got was a message in my inbox, no cutscene. Is this because I was 500ly outside the bubble? (I failed to get back to the bubble before the servers went down)
