Patch Notes Elite Dangerous - Update 3.7.05

[Oldviboy]

almost 1 year since the carriers were "not launched" ...I don't know how many patches with false notes (I've seen the limpets going through rocks supposedly fixed * since September, but they are not even able to eliminate the false error message of limpets, every time you launch a prospector)

the falls to the main menu happen quite a few,which takes away the little desire I had to play ,the game is worse than in 2019,

a bit regrettable ,really,I can't understand how you let the game get worse every time.

Thanks Paul and the Team.
Bug fixed are always welcome

Provided they do not generate new ones

 

[Maolagin]

Why bother? A relog (quit to menu) is faster.

I wonder if it will still work after tomorrows patch

My understanding is they already fixed that one. If you leave the instance and come back, the SSD asteroid remains depleted for a few-hour cooldown. There was clearly a deep and previously unrecognized problem with switching to the fighter perspective that it was causing the client to forget the asteroid had been mined without triggering the instance-refresh code. One wonders if this will fix or exacerbate any of the other odd behaviors surrounding fighters.

It was another bug. Guess they fix it now. If you fly away slightly more then fighter range, 32kms then back without doing SC - exploded deep core restores. So you could find 1 VO and farm it for 512T single rock. How to fly back ...well, use FA-OFF and imagination

I wish they would fix the crappy instancing on Wings. I've crashed 4 times tonight with Purple Python disconnects. It's getting so bad it is almost impossible to play in a wing.

This isn't a false error message. The game is telling you that your last prospector limpet is no longer working.

Just curious, did there happen to be a lot of unsold FC's parked at the various planets and moons.
Reckon it's just me but when I go to leesti, I get all kinds of different colored ship notices. There are about 95 unsold FC's parked in that one system.

ok i was wrong, i just checked it right now and they have already deleted the annoying message, finally! but I think it was a mistake, and very annoying.
Now there is no message,fail or not

I think you can also turn off the COVAS limpet notifications, you may have changed that setting

no, they definitely removed it, at least in the Spanish version,
before since you released the first limpet, and then each time you released another, the message skipped

Mining

• Stopped depleted motherlode asteroids from respawning when a player flies a Ship-Launched Fighter beyond its maximum limit

I thought this was fixed with those FC updates? Guessing perhaps it didn't quite work as intended.

.05 !!!

Likely only one more to go before we start the next beta.

Open Only Powerplay when?

LOL
Griefercrew wants something to play with.

I hope NEVER.

LOL! Powerplay is not holding hands.

The whole point is that its gang on gang warfare- when you come across people you can kill them with impunity because it sets the other team back.

Nope. After patch 4 it was still working. I tested meself.
What they "fixed" in patch 4 was the reset with the SLF. And iirc they also removed LTD from 3/4x SSD asteroids.
Nor sure it was a general fix, but for example, the XB egg had Bromelite

 

[Tyres O'Flaherty]

Still waiting for "improved Tritium spawning rate in ice rings" to return to the game...
Probably also a "Tritium spawning in every ring type" would be welcome.

I know it's a delicate balance but between ships refueling and FC refueling there's an abyss of difference.

Seconded. It still feels really grindy lasering for tritium - which seems a better way than sad or core - with, imho, low yields versus time required.

 

[Adel]

Why do people assume unfixed bugs are fixable?

Because they don't say anything about them .
If they had told: ok we cannot fix this bug, it's hard, we will be disappointed once and for all.
But if they say nothing, it logically means they can do it but don't do it because -put an excuse here-.

 

[Darkminded]

Why do people assume unfixed bugs are fixable?

Because of the very definition of Bug, unfixed bugs are fixable, they are just to time consuming to be prioritized!
I would not mind working on a bug fixing department for frontier, clearly theres much work to be done!

I've seen the limpets going through rocks supposedly fixed * since September

Yesterday I saw one try to push an asteroid, instead of exploding on impact it just stayed there full throttle and then exploded when the time was up!

 

[Darkminded]

Hotspots with millions of miles of radius, often do not spawn the compound they are rich in unless you are 20km from the center!
