This was not in the patch notes.
Why trebling jump time, seriously why?
Totally pointless to sit and wait for some dumb jump sequence when sitting for 50 minutes.

Stop wasting my time fdev.....

According to Frontier it's just temporarily because the servers would die when everyone jumps his carrier at the same time after the update.

Save your outrage its intentional at the moment to not stress the servers.

Explained by Bruce in the Patch Notes thread:

Hi Bruce, Is this a temporary feature (I hope). I'm experiencing nearly a 1 hour jump time. That is pretty bad. I'm sat around staring at my screen for an hour when I should be playing the game. What am I supposed to do in the meantime?

The feature exists permanently as a safeguard. We expect the current spike in jumps to dissipate after the initial excitement of seeing a carrier jump from inside the viewing area.

Closed.
