still have major problems with supercruise and hyperspace when on time critical missions where you have 12-15 mins to move cargo from system to system you approach station in supercruise then press button to drop out and sit and wait,wait,wait 2 mins later crash the game with windows task manager go back into the game putting you at the star system for you to supercruise to station again with 5-7 mins left (in mission time) press the button to drop out and wait,wait,wait that's the saga i tend to get, have raised ticket on the problem and this has been going on from beta 2.3 and still waiting for that to be fixed....

this!

oh and after the mission fails/disappears you get a fine for stealing
 
Did they sneak in a fix for the Elite Rankings in the server side update? I got Competent rank on the 17th and I had to log out/in for my status screen to update it, but I just now ticked over to Expert while ingame. My ticket only says "under investigation"...
 
Playing today - Saturday - I have had several SC Locks in OPEN play approaching Rukavishnikov. After docking there in SOLO, I tried to reenter OPEN and got the never ending spinning sidewinder.

Got worse later in the day... got multiple cannot connect to servers, when it finally did connect, I see no nav beacons in systems where there were before. And more sc hangs in other systems...

not fun to play/test when I have to restart frequently...

And oddly enough, I tried what I read before worked for someone -

Went into the "docking" tutorial.. immediately exited out of docking tutorial, and then I was able to connect to the server. Maybe coincidence, maybe something got reset..

If I may add, and this is by no means proven, but it seems that if you have created your own group, this increases the chance of "Spinning Sidewinder Syndrome".

I deleted the group I created and I logged into the game in seconds! I didn't even have to do the docking tutorial thing.

Attention Devs..

Bulletin boards are empty in quite a lot of systems middle east pill and beyond. Are you aware of this? For example Taurawa system and HE Vision. Bulletins failing to load.

Hi,

The team are looking in to a variety of issues at the moment, and this is one of them. I've passed on your details to the devs. If you can make sure you fill out a ticket, that would be really helpful!

Thanks for all the feedback guys, hope your weekend was filled with happy space exploration, and not freezes or spinning sidewinders!

Just for the sake of "mee too" flag :D I got struck by exploration bug - t.i. planets after scanning stayed Unknown and I couldn't sell data. Got my basic discovery scanner back though, so that was tons of fun (combined with little frustration).

I didn't ticket it as it has it's own paragraph in red in known issues list :)

Thanks Edward.

Unfortunately, my weekend had a fair old complement of freezes and spinning sidewinders. It also had lots of good stuff in between them, but the overall experience is very shaky.

Tickets raised, of course... :) Fat diagnostic logs/videos sent (Tickets 35859, 35868, 36053, 36061, 36056).


[edit]I'd love to know what drugs the ranking system is on. I've got a modest 250-odd kills since Beta 2 dropped (bounty hunting accounted for over 200 of these), and still on HARMLESS. Oh well. Guess I'm a harmless kind of guy. :)

Still got the exploration bug where you can scan a system to your hearts content and still only get ~200cr for the entire lot. Scan rewards seem to be over-writing each other instead of adding up :S

Freezes in Online Open I guess as I have not had a freeze since switching to Solo, the P2P is just not up to the task yet, on a slow connection ie 2meg.

Solo works great as its only talking to the server and not trying to contact players miles away if not in another country.

I have a 100Mb up and down glassfiber connection. I checked my actual speed to a server near London to be 92Mb up/down. I am having the same problems.
 
Dunno if it was a quiet server update today, or whether my tearing down and rebuilding my internet connection - but I can now reliably drop out of SC at a station(!)

\o/
 
I had the most lag yesterday since I started playing in beta 1, never had a problem like it before with ships jumping all over the place, controls playing up etc.
 
I can no longer log in since this update. Just get the spinning sidewinder and then it tells me it can't connect. I then can't reattempt to connect until I restart. Very frustrating as I've been having lots of fun in Elite.
