Hooray for server kicks! I was owned by an Elite Anaconda - shot to pieces but got kicked as my oxygen was running out, logged out, back in, restarted, and I'm back with 100% paintwork!
 
Good job on getting a lot of these bugs fixed so quickly, but can I ask what's happening with the (what seems to be) large volume of players who are still waiting on refunds coming through due to the collision damage bug? I know we've been asked to create tickets if we've not been auto refunded, but these tickets take weeks to get looked at. Clearly some criteria has been missed when you've been scripting the auto refunds, can this please be looked into again? It's really putting me off playing as I've had to sell all my good modules just to have enough insurance money to fly :(

ticket again for reference:

at least you can login to the game, its more than some of us can do
 
From the latest newsletter:
we have already doubled the support team and are continuing to hire to further increase our support bandwidth.

That's FD's way of saying we've expanded from 1 to 2. LOL...all kidding aside, thank you Dev team for your prompt attention to the "stuck commander" issues that were preventing so many from accessing the game. It looks like when we enter a bugged system again it should be much more obvious what has occurred. Again, my resounding thanks!
 
Sorry, but you should really be a bit more appreciative that they actually care and FIX stuff instead of waiting a full week until next maintainance is due.

I really want to appreciate it. I do.

But there are so many questions left unanswered that prevent me from doing so.

Why did the team not heed the reports from the early access beta testers? Why was the upgrade released without any of these fixes applied BEFORE? The reports were already there. The beta test did exactly that. They could have made sure 1.1 was working properly BEFORE they dished it out to all players. But they decided to just wing it and fix bugs later. When ALL OF US are affected by them.

Why?

WHY?

Who was the genius that thought this was a good course of action?

Not to mention the implications of all the galaxy changes to station names, types, locations, ownership, even their existance....
 
Hello Sandro,

I have a question :

"- Backers who backed at the Founder level or above should receive a 2.5% discount at all shipyards and outfitting shops"

It is possible to become a backer?

Just want to make sure the game won't tend on a pay to win's game.

Thank you for your kind reply

Its not like the servers are off for hours. Sure, FD has to learn the ropes of doing some stuff better, but its the right course of action, IMHO.

There are a bunch of peopple on very slow internet connections, who take hours to patch their game.
Which will this the straight 4th day without being able to play.
I can understand those guys.

Hello there!

Just a quick update: the servers had a small hiccup around 17:30, but it looks like it was quite temporary, things should have pretty much sorted themselves out by 18:00.

There servers are still sorting some data out for missions, so for the next thirty minutes or so you might find that starports and outposts are not generating missions, but over the next hour they should build back up to normal.

Dont' get me wrong, i fully agree with you on that point. Was thinking myself that the release of 1.1 is quite rushed and the content should have been tested at least another week. As said, FD has to learn the ropes and i hope they did and will continue to do. My statement was more in regard to the "every day another update" part, for which i am quite thankfull. Course even if they clearly made a mistake there - at least they care. Something i missed in the game i played previously :)

EDIT:

@Ericlas: I do as well, but personally i don't see that the other option would be any better - meaning to wait with relevant patches until the next maintainance.

Thats nice but whatabout those of us still waiting for the promised refund from the broken collision data?

Edit:Ticket id for reference
TICKET #00000037568

I'm still waiting for my refund following a server glitch 4 weeks ago that was supposed to be followed by automatic refund then too! Still it doesn't matter now it was a lot of money at the time but 45K doesn't really matter now :D Still it's not in the same league as loosing a ship!
 
The last few days I have seen an increase in kamikaze npcs during combat.
It is funny only when they are in small ships, not so much when they fly an anaconda....
I think an adjustment to the npc flight parameters may be in order.
