I assume those specs aren't strict, if your build can comfortably run Horizons at ultra settings, chances are it will be capable of running Odyssey at low-medium settings.
Why??Are you sure your name is Jike, not Jack?
is that 60 additional gigs in addition to the game has already or a total of both.Greetings Commanders,
With the Odyssey Alpha almost upon us we wanted to take the opportunity to share with you our minimum and recommended specifications for the Alpha phase of Elite Dangerous: Odyssey.
Please note that as this is an Alpha phase, a large amount of optimisation work for the final release is yet to be completed. As with all pre-released content, please be aware that you may encounter bugs and inconsistent performance as part of your experience. Community feedback is a vital part of the Alpha process and we would encourage everyone to share their experience to help shape Odyssey into the best experience for launch.
If you want to report an issue, or check if an issue has already been reported, please head over to the issue tracker:
https://issues.frontierstore.net/reported-issues/elite-dangerous-odyssey-alpha
These specifications are subject to change as we move toward release.

- Intel Core i5-8600K / AMD Ryzen 5 1600 (above 4 GHz recommended)
- 12GB RAM

We can't wait to begin to share what we've been working on with you all!
See you in Odyssey, Commanders!

Might struggle a bit with those specs.In this game, my dream is to make the most of my computer configuration:
I specifically bought this computer configuration for this game.
- Tobii eye tracker 4c
- CPU: Intel® Core i9-9900K
- RAM: HyperX Fury 64GB DDR4 3466
- GPU: GeForce RTX 3090 24GB
- SSD : Samsung 860 PRO - 1TB
You will get an additional entry in the launcher alongside your normal "Production" game.I have always waited until the official release of previous episodes but as I am signed up for the Alpha I wondered whether I will have access to Horizons as well as the Alpha or will the Alpha install over Horizons?.
Unfortunately my computer configuration is outdated today. )Might struggle a bit with those specs.

As the Alpha wont affect the main universe, I am really not that bothered about getting involved and downloading my preorder until the initial wrinkles are worked out. Lets face it Monday is doubtless going to be a show of bugs and disconnects- why inflict that on myself when I can get disconnects and bugs aplenty plus earn credits/mats in the main universe?
That post was highly insensitive, and it hurt my feelings (me being a VR enthusiast), which is not PC. Shame on you Facta
True, but it'd be still too much to expect anything to work on launch dayProbably, but then that is kind of the point in (at least the first part of) this alpha. They are trying to stress the servers, it's pretty much why we are confined to one planet/system initially.
That choice should be possible as it is effectively a separate game being downloaded - makes the best of what would otherwise be a bit of 'downtime'c) grind combat whilst waiting for a) to d/l... if that's even possible.
I agree everybody should postpone downloading until the following day when all the issues will have been solved.True, but it'd be still too much to expect anything to work on launch day
I too shall not be downloading until Tuesday.I agree everybody should postpone downloading until the following day when all the issues will have been solved.
