Thanks, Ed. Looking forward to these....

Jolly good.
So early? Less than six or so months before release?
ie: Anything significant that's going to be added has been designed by now I suspect. And I'd imagine some development must surely already be in progress assuming significant new mechanics?
Anyhow, at least some nudges can be made if appropriate.
Thanks indeed, Ed.
Request: before this Focused Feedback commences, please could we get some more dialogue and timescales on current bug fixes?
Relevance: it is frustrating to see new content announced via the Focused Feedback process, when old content remains bugged, with no communication as to why, or when it will be fixed. This does not engender confidence in the new content.
Example: in the spoiler below is a comprehensive video of penetrator dumbfires causing 0% module damage (internal, or external) from any angle, under controlled conditions.
This is of course but one example of many. It was bug reported in this thread...
https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showt...al-100-bugged-causes-0-internal-module-damage
...four weeks ago. Although QA acknowledged the thread, there has been no confirmation that it is a bug, or why, or that any action is being taken and the issue does not feature in the 'known issues' list.
Likewise for example we have no feedback or timescale on the Powerplay C&P bugs save that the same were acknowledged and access to Interstellar Factors granted as a workaround. But nothing since then and again not in the 3.0.5 known issues list, nor the C&P issue list.
What I am saying is that although I have participated extensively in Focused Feedback forums & associated Betas before, I'm feeling decreasingly motivated to do so because I foresee similar widescale bugs affecting these releases and thereafter foresee similar silence concerning the same.
Please could we therefore have a serious update on all known bugs - or confirmation of what isn't a bug - before this Focused Feedback opens?
Thanks for reading!

sweet time to give them what WE want.
God no!
If I was a developer I'd just not bother getting an internet connection.
Thanks for the info, Ed. I know everyone in the WoJ has a lot of suggestions for squadrons, and I'm excited for exploration changes.
Thanks for the update! I am really looking forward to the mining and exploration changes. I saw earlier a post asking about a focused feedback session on the missions system; I want to echo that as I feel the community has discussed several amazing ideas that could flesh out this part of the game.
Thanks again for keeping us in the loop!

It's enough time. We won't be directing everything about it. It will be the finer details that we will be feedbacking on. The overall design will be set in stone.
Great feature. Is there a way to give focus feedback on things that are already part of the game and could use a tweak or two? The thing is that not all features can be fully tested in beta and often problems come to the surface only after it has been used for a while by regular, non-beta gamers. A "Phase 2 - Live Gaming" Focused Feedback of some sort.
Is CQC bug (vanishing structures) from 3.0 going to be fixed in 3.1?
Something was messed up with instances in 3.0 I presume, the bug often happens when someone quits the game mid match.
We reported it straight after 3.0 was released, but no info since the initial reply that they were going to look into it.

I just hope that the exploration update doesn't break the discovery scanner one button press into multiple button presses.
I like to believe it will be something far more interesting than that...
Looking forward to the mining as I have lots of cool things for this...
