Guess I just had to wait an hour or so. Game seems to load fine now. Not sure what the issue was.
Elite Dangerous Update 14.01 Deployment Imminent.
- Thread starter sallymorganmoore
- Start date
So, a predictable nerf to exobiology..
Is it really a nerf or is it now displaying what you're actually paid? Before this patch your actual pay was about 1/3 of what the VG summary screen showed.
@sallymorganmoore - Another thing for you to watch (item # 2 below)
From today's Patch Notes:
2. I spent an hour the other night going to several (3 or 4) Fleet Carriers in the vicinity of the Taranis Maelstrom trying to buy AX MC (Both the 3F and 2F), but I could not buy them even though they were listed as being in stock.
From today's Patch Notes:
- Advanced AX Missiles and Multicannons are no longer missing from Rescue Megaships.

- I could buy AXMR on the same FC but not AXMC.
- There was an error which I don't remember now.
- I have video footage (as parts of a 3 hour recording) but I have not had time to snip out the relevant bits from which to create an Issue on the tracker. I will do so when I have time, which may be a week or more away.
It's not a nerf.
Most of the time Exobiology doesn't take that long and there's no need ro drive around for hours in an SRV most of the time. I never use the external camera to find biologicals.
The chat is seriously broken after the update (U14). It seems to very frequently just completely break and I’m unable to scroll up and down in the menus at times. Not fixed unless y out leave the game and come back but then it just frequently breaks again. How can game breaking items like this make it into release?
In ship or on foot?
In ship. Have not tested on foot yet.
I'm loving this update, thank you so much for all the hard work put into this update 
From 14.01 Patch Notes: Fleeing or distant Interceptors at surface settlements/Invisible Thargoids at surface settlements
I'm very happy to confirm it's solved. However, it's solved in somewhat humorous way. There's no Interceptors at all. Including invisible bugs.
Progress bars are blocked, sometimes there's no progress bar, endless scouts are coming. I checked Farkas Oasis in HIP 23716 and Turzillo Point in 63 Eridani,
for hours. Have not seen one Interceptor.
So, if somebody want to enjoy to meet Interceptors, you should fly and jump around, there's enough hyperdictions and interdictions, fortunately. It works like a charm.

In ship. Direct messaging often breaks the comms UI completely. You can't highlight items, look at messages, accept invites ect. It's been bugged pretty bad for months but U14 made it horrible.
The on foot text chat has been horrible every time I've used it (rearranging itself in some random order usually), but I've never had issues with ship chat. TBF though I haven't actually used it since before U14.
Now its getting really strange. I have this problem every time when trying to book a long distance shuttle from a station.
I was surprised too but the Steam launcher will not see the update.
You have to run the game as usual through Steam.
Then the Elite Dangerous launcher will ask you to upgrade.
So, the upgrade is done through the Elite Dangerous launcher which is sad because it is not as good as the Steam launcher.
You have less options for the download.
- Exobiology rank requirements have been adjusted to correctly account for their adjusted balance.
