Notice Fleet Carrier Update - Known Issues

So IDK if it has been posted before, but did they nerf deepcore ? I'm currently in New Borann, cracking LTD core asteroids, and the best I get is 3 fragments from the detonation, and 5 to pick up with the abrasion blaster inside. Anyone can relate ? Is it intentionnal ? Cheers

They actually boosted it. You do some wrong. 2 days ago I was getting 9-17 pieces + like around 10 for blaster.
Make sure it is in blue zone and maybe a bit in red, just a bit.
 
Anyone else noticing the avatar of the bridge officer notifying you of a successful FC jump in your inbox is not the same as the officer you select in your FC personnel assignments?

It seems the FC can't remember the price I set for items when I go back in to change the demand or adjust the price.
Also it seems that the FC does not remember what my buy or sell prices were when switching from buy to sell, or back again.
For how long it takes to set a price with the primitive left-right arrows this is very annoying.

Another annoyance, although minor, the buy limpets tab is the only one with a click-through/description window before you can actually DO the thing. It's out of place and entirely useless.

SOmebody told it already. I guess you have changed him. I put a bet in mail you get original one. Because I didn't change and all is ok.
 
The BGS problems are not listed as a known issue? Seriously.

Very worrying!

Absolute CHAOS throughout the galaxy, uncontrollable faction expansions and retreats, thousands of players seeing their factions facing wipeout, thousands more facing being hurled into wars due to unstoppable expansion (and many now working AGAINST their own factions in desperate attempts to stop that)...

...And Frontier needs to DO SOMETHING. If they haven't yet figured out what to do, they at least need to SAY SOMETHING.

We need the old Influence algorithm back, and a complete revert of the BGS to several days ago. Or at least a mass cull of all current expansions and retreats. And we need it ASAP.
 
In addition to the sound bug with the FC hangar ambience following the player everywhere (power tools, distant machinery, electrical crackles etc.), I've noticed that several starport sounds are missing at both carriers and other ports.

Most notably, the mechanical landing pad sounds when lower, rising, and repositioning the ship are completely silent everywhere I go, and it's persisted through both re-logging and computer reboots.
 
Odd one this:

Scheduled Fleet Carrier Jump
Launched from FC and scanned the system
Cancelled the FC jump as I found a class 1 gas giant with some icy rings I wanted to investigate
Investigated, nothing special so scheduled the FC jump again
Headed back to FC and hit the J button when close enough to FC
Discovered FC heading away from me at a ridiculous speed, (literally 100k every second)

Cancelled the FC jump, no change, logged out and back in, no change. Jumped away, jumped back, no change. Eventually I jumped to another system and called the Fleet Carrier over. Currently waiting for the jump to happen.

Edit: Jumping the FC to another system fixed it.

Okay with 54 pages of notes here, I can't see if what I've encountered has already been mentioned, but:

Repair Crews is installed on my carrier ... but not.
  • Ships can land and repair, and
  • The money for "Repair Crews" has been decremented, but
  • They do not appear as installed on the carrier management pages - I'm offered the chance to install them still, but
  • Even clicking on the install function doesn't do anything - doesn't take my money (again) and does not offer me the ability to uninstall/change crew/suspend.
 
From my most recent playing of game, following the FC update, I've noticed few changes and some which could be considered bugs.

Missions updates :
These no longer show in your notification panel, you need to go to side panel (navigation?) to see the details. Certainly more hassle.

Black Markets :
Will let you sell mission goods WITHOUT WARNING! Beware of this one! 😉

Changed icon colours on galaxy map.
Not great as the most important ones like mission systems, bookmarks and your own ship locations are less visually prominent. Should have left them as was I think.

Disappearing target ships:
Big pain this, especially if its likely to attack Me, it should be viewable on radar.
It's a pain when they keep popping in and out.

Fleet carriers:
Can we filter them out on system map?
Owners, please don't park them all in the same system! You've got a 500 LY jump range, try using it! (OK I understand there's some issues 😉)

New landing display:
Ok, the quick fuel, repair, rearm are quite handy. Think they are pointless as you don't really gain a time saving if you want a quick launch.

Wing lock:
Now of you lock on to a wingman, you have to slow down for the drop to work. I like this as it makes it just a bit more difficult for wings of people to jump you quickly, they'll have to actually manage their approach speed rather than racing flat out and getting dragged in from high speed.
If your on a wing beware of this as if you want to go and help your mate, you'll need to watch your approach.

Anyway, this is not a complaint post, just pointing out a few things I've noticed. 😏

Good summary, but sadly there's not much point anymore, it would seem. They haven't offered any feedback or acknowledgement since the day after the patchocalypse, when they were furiously trying to make sure that the FCs could still be bought, the Hades with everything else in the game. Now? Not so much. Not a peep since Wednesday.

Leave flaming bag of poo on doorstep, ring doorbell, run away.

The FDev business model, apparently.
