Keep dreaming CMDR. The new outfitting "UI" is a steaming pile of horse
No matter how much you try to fanboy it.
And no, I will not adapt.
Ship Outfitting is crazy hard !! very disappointed !

Just to inform you: they ran an alpha, which was even paid for by the testers, and the testers did their job and told them that it has massive problems. They just ignored it, and proceeded to launch it anyway, with all the problems in it. So there is nothing you can come back to, really. ATM, you've generously got the possibility to switch back to the old client to enjoy the better UI/UX there for a limited time. After that time (console launch), you will just have to deal with it. Or play something else.
There is a chance that EDO engineering will burn me out and then that
will happen.Which will mean that i will get to save money on EDO for XBox and also i can skip getting an XB Series X since Elite is the only game i play on XB
Yes, I already feel like that exact same thing is happening to me, too. But then BH will appear and demand stuphs to be haz.There is a chance that EDO engineering will burn me out and then that
I do agree that changing the outfitting system would have an adoption curve no matter what they did. However, I also agree with most posters that the logic tree and for this UI was a step backwards. For example, the "store" or "sell" shouldn't be a slider in smaller text on the bottom. It should be imbedded into the buy option or be a pop up after you select purchase. Also the yellow highlighted modules are confusing mixed in with modules available to purchase. It would be more intuitive if modules were highlighted that matched the slot size and have a separate column for similarly equipped modules and call them "equipped" or something.
I think its more than just change management for existing players. I think this is terribly confusing for new players.

When you remove features that are vital to use it i.e. which special effect is on your engineered module that is stored in your garage (meaning you can't possibly know which one of your 5 multicannons is the one with extra ammo and corrosive on it till you've transported all 5 to your location and fitted them one by one) then yes.. that's broken. Btw that's just one example. I have 17 more should anyone be bothered to hear them!
Yeap,
Whoever designed the outfitting UI should be forced to fully equip 20 Anacondas with engineered modules from module storage.
Then to change the outfitting by swapping shield boosters with different engineering and weapons with the same engineering but different experimentals
Edit and i forgot - they should also be careful not to sell any engineered module by mistake...
I just realized that I am terrified of changing my modules on my ships. I have tinkered a little with a courier for ground ops but that experience made me not want to mess with my other ships. Mentally I think I just said to my self, "yup, that Python is a miner forever now."
I'm scared everytime I use the UI now. I don't want to lose another G5 item.
Wish they'd give an icon for legacy mods and special CG issued mods too.. I am so scared of accidentally losing those!
Yep, i changed 3 modules on my bubble taxi - which became my EDO taxi - and that was by far the most frustrating experience in EDO.
And even the change did not implied any engineered modules, i was still stressed out trying not to sell-by-mistake my FSD booster or my Fuel Scoop in the process
A lot of us are just swapping back to Horizons for outfitting, it's faster even with the log out/in and MUCH safer.
Hear hear! I can second this!^^
Have done this myself. It's absurd how badly they screwed this thing up, and says a lot that this is option everyone's choosing to work around it.

They did. We told them to fix it. They told us to go jump in a lake.
I 100% agree, outfitting in Horizon was much better and easier. With Odyssey you have to back out from Load Out to use or check what is in your storage. There is no option in Load Out to use modules from storage, you can only browser store and there is special section just for Store. Which doesn't make sense.
Design is all messed up. Doesn't make sense. Don't be a White Knight, this is a loose loose situation.
lol ya the one thing that doesnt have a confirmation button in EDO.... go figure!
I can't sleep at night knowing I will have to do some outfitting next day.
