News Status on Focused Feedback Forums

So then - Beta : Open or Closed ? Is this our premium content for the year :D

Joking aside, great news, looking forward to the posts & streams - very soon™
 
I’m thrilled exploration is getting some attention, would love to participate further.
Any exploration updates are moot without an SRV crash fix, and I’m begging for a light at the end of the tunnel.
Also, the Beta ought to include consoles as with 3.0, we’d have discovered the SRV game break bug prior to launch. I trust we’d be included and not further ignored from Focused Feedback AND the Beta.
Thank you for considering the opinions of other platforms.
 
Said alterations' scope is probably limited to balance changes, then.

It must be real hard and time consuming for them to implement those features so they probably already've decided to do whatever they have in mind for exploration with room for balance changes probably. Most of the visual gameplay features is a challenge for Frontier and thats why almost all of the updates so far are based on numerical tweaks.

Hi FD, a question from the Xbox community.

Will the public beta be restricted to PC, or will it also be available on the console platforms?

I'm going to assume it's PC-only, but confirmation would be appreciated.
 
Hello Commanders,

We wanted to give you an update regarding the numerous Focused Feedback forums. We recognise that it has been some time since we’ve spoken about the topics covered but rest assured, the team have been hard at work in shaping the final chapter of the Beyond series of updates.

If you’re unfamiliar how the Focused Feedback forums function, allow us to explain in detail. The Focused Feedback forum section is a platform which allows us to present you with proposals on upcoming game features. With your feedback, this allows us to potentially tackle any problem areas we might have missed, or areas in which a feature can be improved upon.

We realise that it’s been some time since you’ve heard about those features, but we want to assure you that the team appreciates the time taken to discuss, scrutinise, and critique Focused Feedback topics. While the team have not been able to address each and every piece of feedback we received, we can confirm that the vast majority of discussions have been extremely useful in reviewing those features before they are released later this year.


In the coming weeks, you will be able to see the new content in game for yourselves in our planned public beta tests. We’ll also be showing it off for the first time in a series of pre-beta launch livestreams.

We also wanted to take a moment to talk about the Powerplay discussions. Whilst this was never planned as part of the Q4 update of Beyond, it is still a feature that we wanted to collect feedback on and investigate and we thank you for that. The discussions players have had about Powerplay give us strong guidance on how we may revise the feature in the future.

What’s next?

Later today we’ll be presenting to you our vision for Exploration improvements, in a post on the forum, and we look forward to hearing what you think. As this topic will function differently from previous Focused Feedback topics, we’ll be asking you to share your feedback on the thread itself.

In addition, over the coming weeks, we’ll be presenting you summaries of the features coming to Beyond’s final chapter in a series of social and forum posts, and you’ll be able to test them for yourself in the public beta – of which we will have more details on very soon.

In preparation for the beta,
we’ll be archiving existing Focused Feedback discussions. We would like to once again thank the community for their feedback on all the topics so far, it has been immensely valuable.

so after removing the fluff, tl;dr:

- in coming weeks there will be public beta and livestreams
- today, grand opening of a post on exploration 'vision' already implemented

on other non-news:

- focused feedback officially ditched
- open only pp soon(tm) or never

response:

- crowds cheering

business as usual.
nice trolling frontier! :D

As for your line of "- focused feedback officially ditched"

All previous focused feedback discussions are archived when a new focused feedback topic is added to the mix.

It's far from being ditched.

Hi Un1k0rn,

We'll have more details about the beta soon, but it will be restricted to PC only.

Rest assured though, details about the content will be posted here on the forums so even if you're not able to test the beta, you will be able to see a summary of the content we'll be introducing into Chapter Four of Beyond.

Its more of:

Propose small solutions to massive game problems

See you next year

i stand corrected then. does this mean that the new feedback about exploration has a genuine chance of impacting what will go into beta in a few weeks?
