That's fine if you play on your own, but for those of us that play with friends that is not a reasonable compromise or solution.

Sorry, but what is "unreasonable" about that ? It IS a workaround. Hopefully a temporary one and they can reintroduce hi-res capture at a later (perhaps less busy) time.

Removing possible exploits is (and imho HAS to be) a top priority for any dev team, even if it means cutting/altering features.

Please keep it in mind for those of us who don't exploit.

That's all we respectfully ask... It is a big part of the social side of gaming, like taking a photo together in front of Big Ben or the Eiffel Tower as a tourist, we were looking forward to taking high res screenies in front of all the major bodies in SOL as part of our community project. It's little things like this that hinder the social aspect of Elite flourishing for us...

Thanks for the hard work as always from you and the team and taking the time to reply. It is appreciated!

I think this is a fair compromise. You still have the option of regular SS in multiplayer mode, so the social photos are still available, and as the 4K SS do impact the network, then to confine them in solo mode makes them still available.

- Weapons: Empire Combat Laser Unit has specific firing sounds.
- Empire Laser Bolts changed from red to blue

Q. Are we starting to see the makings of 'faction' specific weaponry and effects that are unique to their side?

Shok.

So does the new launcher have the ability to auto notify when to update, or do we still need to completely restart the application?

Wouldn't worry too much if I were you. It is probably going to be a bumpy start for G 2.00 as it has been before right after major updates. You are just going to miss the flamous pickering of launch-related problems here at the forums :D

Wow what a list.

I have two requests:
1 - put a server status on the launcher
2 - stop timing your updates with the time we get home from work and want to play ;)

Good job, team :)

The poster said it's a reasonable compromise, but it isn't if you play with friends. You can't just "hop out" and "hop back in again" can you. So no, it IS NOT (copying your use of caps lock) a workaround. Do you understand now?

There were 2 changes that I noticed could have repercussions that cause screw-ups:

"- Ships may have at most one fuel scoop"
What happens if I already (in 1.05) had installed 2 Fuel Scoops (I was about to try that today to see if I scooped fuel faster)?

and

"- Added surface scanner to pledge level exporer cobra default loadout and added missing stats for the scanner module itself"
What if I have already kitted that slot with something else on my ship? Will my existing kit be replaced with the new default surface scanner? What if I already bought a surface scanner - will I now have 2 equipped?

Squee!

Particular little nervous giggle of joy at the audio tweaks - the audio has consistently been one of the best facets of Elite, indeed one of the best examples of audio in any game.

I already have 2 fuel scoops.

YES you did scoop faster, but the scooping only showed for 1 Fuel Scoop.
