Hot fix incoming..

I opened launcher manually through EDLaunch.exe and click "UPDATE". The launcher basically freezes but in task manager under the performance tab you can see things moving about. Took less than an hour to update and when finished PLAY was available and I could launch from Steam as per usual.
 
For those having trouble with the Upgrade in the launcher (i.e. just freezing after pushing Upgrade), try turning off Windows Defender real time protection. It seems to interfere. Personally, I have Malwarbytes Premium as well so I wasn't too worried about doing that.

Thanks for the tip, I'll just wait it out and see..
 
Got a reply from a support agent. Had to explain the situation again that Odyssey for LEP owners on steam does not have any real fix until they generate steam keys. Also avoid doing any integrity checks as this will make steam download 1.5GB and mess things up further.
 
In Steam,
  • right click on Elite Dangerous game in your Library
  • Manage -> Browse Local Files
  • Double click on EDLaunch.exe
The Elite Dangerous Launcher started and wanted my to Login - I did.
Then Odyssey was listed as needin an Upgrade, which I did. This went very fast.
Then it was ready to Play. I exited the Elite Dangerous Launcher and Steam worked correctly.
Yes, but when i try to manualy login, i get this
But i found a solution to force the update : delete the install folder.

I'm not a LEP owner ^^
 
OK, back in the mix now with the update, managed to escape the prison that was Alexandria and took a war mission with a faction but...

The planetary site is deserted and my dropship has just left me there, I have no idea how to get it to return to pick me up. Apparently you can book a shuttle wherever you are but I haven't worked this out yet.
Any ideas?

The graphics and gameplay will need to evolve, rather a lot, at least planet side but they're getting there with some other stuff.
A lot of work to go for Fdev but I think it's got legs.
 
r u serious?? do you not know any biker cowboys?
I am western Canadian.
I take no guff from twits on the street any more than anywhere in life.
you either stand up for your beliefs and your life or submit.
I submit to no-one

I run over dogs and shoot cats with salt for fun

I'm a Navy SEAL with over blah blah blah etc
 
amazing how accepting people are of lies and deceit.

AND FRONTIER..!! GUESS WHAT ?

sTILL nO R-E-A-R-M-

I AM nOT 65
I AM a computer programmer/tech/engineer with over 40 years experience and still active
BUT do eye for an eye conversation bother you...?
You ruin my BGS for now 3 days
Make it so the game is actually unplayable.
And I am still waiting for a fix.
Now that my predictions have come true about the release....maybe prove me and a few hundred others wrong and FIX it before you all go home for the weekend.

or...
just ban me now. cause guess where I'll be.
NOT IN THE broken game that is a shooter that cant shoot
 
no.
If I did I probably would not waste 1 second in here or on this game
I have an anger issue
that stems from extremely poor release planning and execution that is repeated to the extreme every release of new stuff.
I have worked for many companies that love to quote 'Lesson Learned' and now we are better and wiser...etc...
Bull * * * *.
People are expected to say these things, no-one ever believes it because we get to see it over and over and over.

Currently Odyssey is nothing but vaporware.
It has bulk
it took time
it took space
but it seems all it did for me was make it so I cannot SHOOT in a game designed to SHOOT

There are no lessons learned here.
This will NOT get better for Next release.

Only Lesson learned here is people never change.

in my case there are many more details that you are unaware of and don't matter

frontier picks on people in this game.
They have been picking on and at me since the first CG in Paresa.
They thrive on conflict.
And with me they found a cmdr that takes on everything. over and over and over
they keep inserting pmf's into my systems
not just systems I have expanded into either. systems that I and many others fought for for 2 years.
We won our fights and the properties and frontier steps in and gives those systems away to more pmf's

They know they are doing this. it is very specific and pointed and not un-noticed.
But I don't mind. the harder it is to win, the better I like it.

But here, now, you take away my bullets...
you destroy most of the work I have spent 8 years building
and lastly make it so I can now not even defend my ships.

If I could figure out how to detonate the hafnium....

I have lots of ships a couple carriers....I can shoot and rearm my srv...not much use though..


By the way, this is how you aid the opposition. get fdev to disable a players ships. for days on end....
 
and I would not be surprised if this is intentional towards me.
Right now there are 2 pmf's that cannot get a foothold in 2 of my systems that frontier inserted them into
by disabling me for 3 days, they are now growing and gaining.
so once again frontier to the rescue to save the underdog from being squished because they were dumb enough to ask for one of my hard earned systems that frontier put them into without a care for me or my HARD EARNED systems.
 
I have a treaty with some of my opposition
I have a treaty with my allies
They all respect what is mine.
Frontier needs to make some treaties. They have no respect at all for what is mine.
