Elite Dangerous Update 14 Release Schedule

Probably a bit off topic but I feel like the introduction of yet a new game mode will just split an already small playerbase and make it less likely that you'll encounter other players in the main open mode.
Not really, 3.8 is being put out to pasture, as it should be. I'm grateful Frontier are keeping it around for old time's sake though. If you want to keep playing via console, GeForce now is a solid option to keep going with your free duplicated to a new PC account in Horizons 4.0 and/or Odyssey, if and when one decides to purchase it.

So all in all, it's not that far off when it was Base Game / Horizons - in fact it could be argued that it's a lot better now Playstation & Xbox players with GeForce aren't separated from instancing with each other and PC players. And, if everyone eventually moves to Oydssey, it will be one shared galaxy where everyone is united in one galaxy with no instancing restrictions.

Greetings Commanders,

We're on the brink of a big day ahead - Update 14 is incoming and imminent for release tomorrow, November 29.

Here's a hopefully useful guide to the release schedule for you today, so you can make adequate preparations ahead of time, or just generally get warmed up to share the big moment together.




TUESDAY 29th NOVEMBER, UPDATE 14 RELEASE SCHEDULE (All times below in UTC)
  • 5:00 - In game broadcasting of 'server downtime warning'.
  • 7:00 - Both Horizons only and Odyssey Servers go down (update notes released via web and 'Release Tracker' style forum thread at around this time).
  • 15:00 - Servers return. Update 14 Deployment will be live.
DOWNLOAD SIZE INFORMATION (UPDATE 14 ONLY):
  • (3.8) Horizons Only Update 14 : 164.7 MB
  • (4.0) Odyssey Update 14 : 4.8 GB
Total combined update size : 4.9 GB (Updates combined only. ONLY if you have already installed the full 4.0 game client in advance).

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you have not installed a full download of the Odyssey (4.0) game client in advance of tomorrow's update 14 deployment, the client itself, minus the update 14 download size, is around the 50 GB mark. You may wish to do this prior to Update 14 release if you have yet to do so.

UPDATE NOTES:
Full update notes will be shared tomorrow, just ahead of or alongside server downtime.




Again, appreciate it's an early start for the UTC club BUT do watch out for the Release Tracker thread and update notes around 7:00. Pour a coffee.
Then pour another one.

FD and brewery parties eh?
Thank god its just a game and not important in the slightest. In the real world people lose their jobs over failing to meet deadlines and taking products offline. ;-)
