Is that true? - FD never let us quit from the ships to space??? I hope they will make this feature in future

Yeah, even if it were to happen, it's so far in the future that (especially considering the average age of this community) it may as well be "never"

Although honestly, I don't think that more leg stuff will make Elite a better game. It's always been about the ship and improving/expanding ship gameplay would do much more good.
 
Well, I don't have Discovery so I can't verify if this is a thing or not...But in Horizons you could take your SRV and drive over a geyser and it would launch you a few hundred meters to several kilometers above the surface. I think I saw one video of someone actually reaching orbital altitude.

So, if you really want to have space legs...find a geyser and be a human cannonball! (subject to functionality that is)

Take care and check six Commanders! o7

Ya know, the entire Odyssey part of the is title was a complete failure (IMO of course) due to it really has done nothing to the title but just one step closer to a FPS which ya can't do with a true Simulator as EDh. Now don't get me wrong the intro of Odyssey killed everything as the Overwhelmingly Positive reviews for ED and the same for EDh, but when Odyssey came out it destroyed the reviews and despite what players think people DO look at reviews for potential games.

Now Odyssey is slowly getting attention but VERY slowly as optimization is truly a game killer. "Oh it's just your hardware" players that say this are lying as I run a high, well sorry medium end platform and clearly see the issues and where they are. As I'm set for 60 frames, Horizons ran a perfectly solid 60 and some times 70 for 7 years. Now even though I'm limited I still hold a 40 heat on my 2080 and a 38 on CPU. "Hardly debatable to anyone that challenges hardware being the problem".

Frontiers EDh is now a dead game as all resources are now put toward Odysseys space legs which is a good thing I guess though I personally think pointless as 90% of foot missions can be done with ship or SRV but as you mentioned Frontier will put all resources into Odyssey thus you very well might see a lot of changes including what you posted.
The only true core problem I see with Odyssey is the balance of what a firearm can do to an SRV or a ship. (Please for gods sake it should be like shooting a 9mm at a tank.)

Now please don't take this the wrong way but the idea of space legs in a Ship Space Simulator is kind of reaching a bit for space legs due to it's really not needed and pointless, IMO of course.
Now Carriers are the last thing Frontier will ever do with Horizons but wouldn't it have been a better idea to dump Carriers for building bases on a planet now that planets are no longer seeded but set with Odysseys system. Most Carriers don't go anywhere anyway and are just space clutter. Planet bases would have made the idea of space legs and a far better choice, as you posted, the intro of Odyssey might have run smoother being prepared for the change and would maybe helped the space legs in actual space easier to implement.

I truly hope I didn't upset players for my opinions but this is coming from a vet from day one of the vanilla with over 8000 hours, but this is what we have now so lets hope Frontier can pull this off.

Thank you for the read I hope and enjoy the title Commanders...o7
