Hey, Michael!
Thanks to you and the team for the update. Another job well done.
It seems the POIs still disappear at around 2km height. Is this a known glitch? Also, some of them seem to spawn Sentries only after deploying the SRV.
Also, could we please look into reducing the radius/size of these blue circles? Even at full zoom out in Sensors, I can't see the edges of the circle when in my Cutter, making it difficult to spot the exact center/origin of the POI.

Please, don't try to hijack my request to FDEV. Both sentence are true.
if the hardware meets the software requirements everything must runs fine. Maybe something can go wrong here and there,some stuttering or an occasional crash... but not like this situation.
this is why i wrote "if you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem".
Ok , even if it's only AMD fault you cant let your users stays in a situation where they cant play the game.
tomorrow horizons is going to be released and I'm pretty sure I can't play and enjoy it.

PAYOUTS
PAYOUTS . PAYOUTS , PAYOUTS ...
The only reason many of us not even trying out mission's is because its pure waste of time with current payouts...The same for crash sites want some good cargo...
its real shame ..looks like i am back to NPC shooting and trade runs ...untill next update

You do realize you can stack the missions and get a good payout while doing several of them at the same time?
Also it seems weird that "This isn't worth my time" comes before the "Hrm what kind of mission is this lets try it and see"
So yeah, apparently "Pay me a lot or go home?"

Any chance for comment on height where navigation compass (showing heading) kicks in, right now it only does it below 25km?
Michael, just one question/suggestion:
Flying low is where the fun is, so why forcing us to fly above an arbitrary value ?
If it's to prevent POI to be found too easily from the air, what about giving us just a small message or a sound when we are close to a POI zone below 1500m, this way we could still fly low to appreciate the fantastic job the team has done, but have to gain altitude to get the approximate position of the nearby POI.

Tested out the Beta 6, with good results for POI the search time is cut down a lot there is some outcropping poi that I can't find however can only assume these items are quiet small, the fade down from 2km does not go to 1km dead!! more like 1.26km maybe a small tweak required, also bug reported for some buildings not sitting on the surface correctly, but a much better improvement from beta 5, more tweaks required for the coming weeks hopefully, the payouts and cargo is still an issue as players lose interest in them, perhaps some rares or something with an added bonus payout on odd occasions. I still would like to see much bigger wrecks sites though lets go big. 
but overall good job so far FD keep going.

I Agree with xondk, it's not about the money, money, money. (hangs his head in shame for the reference and sulks away) but it's true, or at least it shouldn't be.
An issue that start with "What I want is simple"

Michael, was the writing of 1Km in the patch notes, just a slip or a miscommunication? What I'm trying to get at is would you consider lowering it to 1Km after the release tomorrow?
I, personally, think that if the fade off happened then that shouldn't be too much of an issue as you could still find it from lower you just don't have the circle to guide you.
Is it just me, or is it the fact that people think the POI vanishes rather than just the graphic when you get below that level?
It is all about the payouts when the mission them selves are so lacking in fun and interest ...I am not the only one that thinks this there are many have said it before and payouts has been brought up in obsidian ant last 3 videos too ...
All so just check steam forums they are a blaze with posts about lacking payouts

What's your problem. Every single post of you is just you bashing the game or Frontier. If this game makes you that angry, maybe you should stop playing and reading this forum. Stop acting like a spoiled brat and try to behave like an adult for once. You're embarrassing yourself.
Will the Horizons release tomorrow require us beta testers to redownload the entire large game or can it be an incremental small download like with regular patches? I dont want to spend hours downloading the full release when the changes from beta 6 to public release are small. Thanks

Well unfortunately fun is entirely subjective, I guess interest is aswell but I certainly find exploring a planet's surface interesting. I also don't venture to the steam forums, they're one step above the EvE forums, which are one step above reddit.

do not be angry
I have no problem. FD must have it, since they are not capable to make a game with fun and depth concepts, and insist an do things in a shallow way. And forcing the use of SRV with the gameplay
I'm just putting my understanding of how this decision is amateur in the game, and reinforcing how much it should be reviewed.
From only a gameplay point of view(as sugestion), this is a bad decision as others posts indicate.

Will this affect any CG missions that you have not redeemed on closed CG's as well? Or are these safe?
