Elite Dangerous: Update 7.01 and Horizons Update (PC Only)

[Mallchad]

A fix has been implemented for where engineered weapons were....dealing extreme amounts of damage (I have no 'wit' left in me to give you anything more on this one...other than that really was a lot of damage).

Sorry, I usually refrain from memes but that was neccecary. You must know.

To help you understand.
Console submission processes are handled differently to PC update submissions. There is a platform turnaround time that developers must abide by.
Hope this helps...

Welcome to the dark side.

• Some weapon damage values are still potentially not entirely what you were previously used to. We'll carry on looking into instances of these.

Just to double check - are Efficient modded weapons included?

We're targetting next week for deployment of those (Certification time required).

When this update goes live and someone tests engineered beam weapons, would you reply to me and let me know where they are at now? Also, is it just certain engineering mods (like overcharge) that aren't working, or are ALL engineer mods effected? And is the missing multiplier only for DPS, or has range and efficiency also been affected?

Thanks!

We've also reduced Data Transfer times by up to 75% following your thoughts and feedback.

\o/ @sallymorganmoore I love you, please whisper more stuff like this in my ears !!!!

Investigating Commanders who were unable to modify their suits or weapons.

I guess I will continue to play hard mode this week end.

@sallymorganmoore should we expect another update beginning of next week ?

Thanks for the updates as usual! Quick one - I noticed last night that NPCs in both a settlement (with scavengers) and a conflict zone were all standing still, unable to move (though they could fire). This was a bug I saw a few patches back but seemed to reappear for me last night... anyone else see this one?

What about players who voluntarily exploited the High Damage Output to kill hundreds of players in Open? Those who earned billions of Credits due to this BugExploit & the Thargoids? And those who duplicated items with their Fleet Carrier? They... can just keep everything and don't get any ban or so...?

I have absolutely no idea right now, Nicou, just wanna get those fixes in and everything sorted and then absolutely take your feedback onboard.

I can make sure they are? Doing a big sweep, basically.

Why would they? They didn't do this, FDev did this. Why so spiteful anyway?

Reverted change to Data Ports that made downloading all forms of Data an illegal act.

• Now, only data that is alarmed is illegal to download.

Am I dreaming? What going on? Quickly reacting to feedback? Where are we? When are we? What the heck is going on?

Why should anyone be banned for doing what the game allows them to do? It's one thing to roll back credits earned through broken game mechanics, but banning someone for just playing the game they were given seems mighty harsh.

Hahaha, well look...lots of really constructive chatter around here on this yesterday so it seemed only right to do something about it.

HOPEFULLY. We're really going for it but I'll keep you in the loop. Want to get console update out too as a priority.

Like the post says, consoles can't immediately deploy updates. There's a verification process.

I dunno how many times I need to remind everyone that I'm listening yooooooooooo You were all talking about it, so there we go!

• Fleet Carrier UI sometimes fails to format incorrectly.

Yeah, we wouldn't want that, now would we?

4 months is quickly in your books?

Don’t get me wrong, is that the reason why Odyssee is for consoles on standby? To get it in the right position, so that Sony and Microsoft will give their go to this? I mean after cyberpunk anybody knows that Sony is a little bit hard with products which need some improvements after the release. Honest question.
