Update 11 - Finishing Touches (Are you sitting comfortably?)

[redthorne]

Greetings Commanders,

Some issues have been detected in our final round of checks before the launch of Update 11. Therefore we're taking extra time to apply fixes and moving the release to next week. Apologies for the further delay, but we trust what's coming will have you on the edge of your seat.

You're giving out free bottles of Centauri Gin in real life? Sweet!

Jokes aside, thanks for the update. And the gin. Maybe. Please? heheh

 

[Jaden Capek]

Hmm. We're getting update 11 around the tail end of the last storyline, and there were some last minute bugs that need to be ironed out?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.

They needed to remove the Thargoids from the fleet carriers.

A lot of your criticisms are valid and FDev has performed awfully, but you need to learn to pick your battles. FDev's poor communication and tendency to release broken updates has been a problem for a long time, but in this thread FDev is actually communicating with us for once and taking the time to fix bugs before release, which is what most of us have been wanting them to do for a while now. Criticizing them for their actions in a thread where they're trying to do what we want them to just makes you look insane.

True.

I could be wrong, but I suspect rather than the company telling the ED CMs to go quiet, it may be Arthur telling the company sorry, the ED team are not going to be hung out to dry twice a week while someone higher up makes a decision on consoles. Make the decision.

But as I say, I could be completely wrong. I normally am

Thanks for the update Bruce.

Since we're on the topic of FCs, can we please please get a moving hologram of the FC when we target it during supercruise?

I want it to move like how stations do so I can exit supercruise facing the docking pads, not the underside.

I'd like Outposts to be accurate too.

Wait people actually do that?

You should trying racing sometime

Curious if you don't mind me asking Bruce since I put it up in the previous thread, do you happen to know if the nasty bug where you can't switch back to a Drake-Class carrier if you change your carrier layout (say to a Victory, Nautilus or Fortune-Class) has been fixed in this upcoming update?

I've posted the issue so many times on the tracker and each update it gets marked as expired, support says there's nothing on their end they can do to change it back other than to recommend decommissioning the carrier entirely and having them (support) reimburse the credit cost.

This has been an issue since, I'm gonna say Update 7 or 8? Would love to know if it's been squashed.

 

[Jack Winter]

LOL.... I just got Rick-rolled by a CM. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Wait people actually do that?

Not with carriers, outposts or planetary bases, but proper stations yes especially if carrying scan sensitive items. Drop out of cruise facing the slot and boost right in.

 

[St0rmFury]

Wait people actually do that?

Uh... is it really that surprising? I always try to maneuver my ship to be facing the mail slot when supercruising there.

But I can't do the same with FCs because the hologram is static during supercruise (but not out of it, which is strange).

Sorry to hear about this issue, Delta. I'll ask about this one even if I can't guarantee that a fix is included in U11.

Let's analyze the situation, we lose the monthly development updates, no news of the console port, radio silence for almost 3 months, they announce that they have to study how to communicate (what?), then a delay when they had not announced anything previously, then , they are postponing it when they had the intention of launching it at the end of February, it seems that they don't even clarify, you tell them truths like houses and it seems that I am the culprit, I don't want you to side with me, I want the base of Players are the ones who have the voice to say enough is enough in such a situation and some (myself included) these types of messages overflowed the glass of water and you can no longer shut up. We must also remind them that the player base are the ones who pay them the salary that sometimes they forget.

Where did all these "we's" come from? Just asking because you seem to have a lot of them!

 

[St0rmFury]

I heard the missing Drake class layout bug has been there from the beginning...

Well it is the forum and that implies we actually play the game!

 

[Northpin]

I'm not in a position to share detailed information ahead of official comms, but this should give you an overview.

god dammit, cant believe i felt for it

LOL.... I just got Rick-rolled by a CM. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

Well, you're not alone...

 

[CMDR Xyhod]

Good lord.

any chance you could wet our appetites with a few more juicy pics?

Edit: Oh, and if its a pic of rick we might have to hunt you down... (j/k)

 

[babelfisch]

so we can't take you seriously as a company.

Which is just fair, because nobody can take us seriously either.
