Notice Fleet Carrier Update - Known Issues

"'Whats that? Wasted enough of your life to make >30 billion credits so you wont have to worry about getting a Carrier and do whatever you want for outfitting?
AND OH BOY! You got >66% of it via a method other than mining?!
AND GOLLY You wanna buy our ARX for the Fleet Carrier you wanna buy?!?!
Well I have something special for you!!..........
...............Black Adder!'
- With Love, Frontier"
Well I mean, I did have a rather enjoyable time trying to see what sense I could make of the error to see what is causing it. I got a few hours of fun poking at the internals of Elite, so that was a good time. :) (It's actually a really odd issue since multiple people seem to be seeing the same two id's being used for the carriers for some reason.) But yeah, kind of disappointing not to be able to try out my FC and get it customized with the cosmetics I already bought for it.
 
I managed to purchase a FC and even moved it to a nearby system (then had to go back as I couldn't buy limpets without the armor service). I didn't participate in either beta but had plenty of black adder errors and an hour of not even being able to connect to frontier servers. But this was 6 hours ago
 
So, at this point, WHY NOT JUST ROLL BACK THE PATCH?

Ditto. Maybe roll it back out when it actually works, and not a second before?

So the status is that the #1 bug is people being unable to purchase Fleet Carriers in the Fleet Carrier update. It is to laugh.

The #2 is that everything else (sounds, beacons and POIs missing, can't sell explo data etc. etc.) is broken too, so we don't even have the option to just put off the purchase for now and do what we were doing before until they work.

Out-STAN-ding! :rolleyes:
 
Another commander adding to the list of those bitten by the Black Adder. Tried purchasing a FC in Balante, not many FCs already present in system. May try again later.
 
yeah... Black Adder
tried in a few different systems :(

Update: just tried CD-47 990 as there is just 16 FCs in the system, Black Adder in any game mode... what a heck?

So, at this point, the executive leadership at Frontier needs to be questioned. Why not roll back the patch. No matter what happens, you are GOING to have to have a patch ,regardless, even if your engineer stumbles on whatever bug slipped through production. Don't try damage control, just own it, restore the game before FC. 100% of non-beta players have lived without Fleet Carriers. It will be fine for a little longer without it.
 
Same here, unnable to buy a fleet carrier in system Ehlanda, black adder error as soon I click the buy option. Unplayable right now, and I just buy a pack of ARX to customize my carrier, well sad to refund the pack until 48 hrs policy expire on steam :(...

5 years "Elite Dangerous". 36 years "Frontier". And they still makes, these same mistakes.
I'm so disappointed! :/ wrrr
since your so wonderful, how about you develop, code, model, texture, uv map a better version for yourself... so sick of peons complaining all the time when they have no idea about the amount of work that goes into a gametitle
