How about ??Just thinking if we can convice Sally somehow to post Patch7 patch-notes today
Elite Dangerous Update 7 Progress
- Thread starter sallymorganmoore
- Start date
Maybe post some pics of Beer and Kebabs for the other CMs too.. might entice them out
what you tryna say about our lovely CMs?? lmao.. (I would loooove to ping them for the joke but it ain't worth it what with everything these days)
There is enough pandering to stereotypes here with the flowers and chocolates.
But not Sally .... But I thought about it and thought if it brings a smile to someone's face and it's not mentioning rainbow lasers and unicorn paintjob and stars shooting out of engines , what have I to lose . I did think the ping was .......your out of here ......

Yes I remember we had this convo before (after I quoted you, natch). While it is true that improvements have been made, they're quite incremental and too meandering for my taste (up to patch 4 it got a little better, then patch 5 improved some areas while others become 100% unplayable so a net step backwards, patch 6/6.01 semi improved things again but I'm still having severe drops in random places, sometimes even in the docking bay of all places, which suggests culling/garbage collecting issues remain a factor).
Will be interesting to see how the return of CAS changes things (part of 7, right?), I presume not by much and it's more a case of what look one prefers (especially for those who play on 1080p displays - I much preferred CAS fwiw, even if it didn't really bring performance gains but the image looked better to me).
I also think that the real issue isn't graphics as such, but NPCs - whenever they're around my performance tanks; while empty settlements without ships yield an almost stable 60fps locked. Which is more what I expect given the (lack of) visual fidelity on display.
FSR to me isn't an improvement either per se (even though I've seen some posters using it as an argument that it helped - yes, but at what cost) but a temporary stopgap until "proper" optimization occurs; though I get the feeling that it might actually be part of the overall plan to make Odyssey acceptable to people who don't care/know what it does and/or don't see the visual downgrade it brings.
But who knows - it might actually work out for Frontier, especially when I see how people are a-okay with the degraded visuals when comparing them with Horizons (such as the burning stations comparison thread). When your customers have limited expectations in terms of performance/visuals, you might get away with putting less effort into it. Hope I'm wrong and Frontier retains a minimum level of artistic pride and sorts those out regardless.
As I said before, the way in how patch 7 is rolled out and the quality of it (how much does it fix vs. how much does it wreck that wasn't broken?) will be a key acid test for me, so I might not end up waiting for patch 8, which could still be several months away for all we know.
I get the feeling you'd have more success bribing them all with a few decent bottles of gin.
Hey Star Citizen was meant to be released fully featured and complete in 2014, I think I can live with the trivial matter of manually backing up bindings.
This isn't the SC thread though. And I think you mean SQ42 anyway.
Perfectly understandable as you need all the rest you can get before dealing with all of us idiots during and after the release, especially those of us asking why stuff that was not in the patch hasn’t been fixed by the patch.
Panther Clipper confirmed!
Is that the same group who complained about ship interiors or full VR not being in Odyssey when we were told that neither were being included?
Uhm, my post was just a reply to your previous question towards someone about how could you answer to them.
Quoting the last bit made it a bit out of context.
Before that last bit, I did write, that development was very complex, and not as simple as most think it is. (I'm a solution architect, former lead developer.)No offence was meant by the last part - no, I do not think the team is lazy, quite the opposite!
I wrote it just to explain that it may seem like that for people who do not understand how complex development is. If you think (as some players do) that these things are simple, then you'll only see that FDev is slow, hence FDev is lazy, hence you (as CM) get questions like "why not hotfix it?" etc.Sorry, maybe I'm not as good in English as I thought.
Anyway it doesn't matter rellay and please do not be upset about it! Have a nice day, and have a cookie and some hot tea (or coffee)!
I'd read it that way also.
Sadly, such comments are so common on the forum that I just shrugged
Yeah mate. I fully understand that you're perfectly happy for your roof to leak because some guy in a completely different country doesn't even have a roof. Makes perfect sense.
