Hi Michael,

Please could you explain the reason for the "Elite or Founder" missions only being made available at Jameson Memorial?
Are these intended to be storyline missions once players have reached Elite? (or are Founders)

There's also been a pirate-hunting mission "Mastering the Maleficent" that has this rank and had been available anywhere - is this going to disappear? And why, if there is a mission of this type for "Elite or Founder", can Founders not do other missions for lower rankings e.g. Deadly if they're not at that rank.

Quite confused what the intention was with the "or Founder" requirement...

Thanks

Andy

The Elite and Founder missions are issued by the Pilots Federation which is based at the Founders World.

Founders are Commanders who backed at the Founders level in the Kickstarter and part of their reward was to be able to access some of these special missions.

Top Bloke!
 
Quite impressed so far by this patch in general, this fast update should make testing more intense.
Thanks to all at Frontier and have a nice weekend!
 
Michael, you guys working on Saturday?

Appreciated; weekend working is never much fun, o7.

Ok, that's enough honey :D

Is there any chance someone could re-look at the Asp Scout? Looking at the feedback from the Thread, the Asp Scout seems to be confused as a boat. It looks like it wants to be a bit of a DBS/Cobra/Courier but...there's no reason to choose the Sc-Asp over any of those 3 boats.
 
Issue with freeze on loading screen still isnt solved. I start the game...everything looks fine until i press any of the groups/solo/open play buttons, then i had the loading screen text in the main menu, and the game freeze...i can see the main menu background station orbiting the planet, but i cannot press any button, and i am forced to kill the process via task manager. I can't see the classic ''orange ship loading screen''.

 
Incredible work by the dev team Michael, my thanks to each and every one of them. They and you have made this old Elite fan very happy indeed :)

I resisted the urge to jump into the federation behemoth and went straight for the Asp Scout wanting to build a sort of Mk.IIish type of Asp. Pretty zippy from what I could build I think I"ll do some more testing with it since I was a big Asp fan (after Cobra that is)... my only real issue is the side flap things that are meant to "complete" the sides which just look tacked on and non functional I wish they just built the ship out to a point instead of resorting to that. It could just be the HUD image being rendered not all that so I can't confirm because the debug cam is bugged in the Asp Scout and can't see it from the outside.

I'll try it out more when I can get back in the game download is super slow now.

Aye, that's what I plan to do, though more DBS-ish type boat :D

Admit, I'm now able to log in, so a lot of my post is from the Thread and what others have said...but it's actually a very polite, very informative Thread...who'd have thought o_O :D
 
Nice! Thanks guys!

In was afraid to change out of my cutter to test out the other ships while the shipyard bug was in effect. Time to go try out the corvette!
 
Michael does this update sort out the issue of the cutter not being able to fly through the docking slot, I lost count how many CMDRS lost their imp cutters because of some invisible wall stopping them from leaving.

I'm not Michael, but I can answer. No it doesn't. The temporary fix is to keep your landing gear down when entering and leaving the station.
