Update 11 Patch Notes

[LixNix]

Will it be possible to book an apex shuttle on carriers?

 

[DrinkyBird]

Also Bruce, I don't see anything about disco balls or dance floors? Can I at least play Vengaboys over the tannoys? These are of the highest importantance for our #armada Party Bus.

 

[CMDR Von Abrahart]

Bruce - what does The following mean?

• Checkerboard rendering is now automatically applied to low, medium, and high quality graphics settings. This option will reduce the cost of the planet terrain shader when in close proximity to a landable planet.

 

[Ski'Thor]

So, looks like no Vista Genomics available by default, right? The carrier needs to get to an admin system to install the module, doesn't it?

Seems so... sent the carrier back to Deriso yesterday, just to be sure

 

[AJ24]

Will it be possible to book an apex shuttle on carriers?

This is what I was wondering as well

 

[Rat Catcher]

Say goodbye to Power Regulator farming???? If so, glad I managed to complete my 'set' of suits already.

No, only BGS manipulation - or trying to get hostile with Sirius possibly?

 

[Marcus Seldon]

A seating area for safe Fleet Carrier jumps.

Does this mean that every player or NPC must sit before a jump?

 

[Hangerhead]

It is now possible to sit in all chairs and barstools found on all concourses (albeit one at a time).
I see what you did there.

 

[CMDrAdam]

Is there a sitting down animation

[DragoCubX]

So no Apex shuttles nor Frontline solutions on Carriers? That's quite a disappointment, if an expected one. Would've been the two most important on-foot services to have for me, like this it just became a bar & a nice bridge with a (hopefully cool) jump animation.

I guess support can help you with that...

 

[londonx]

• Fixed suits and visors rendering in-front of particle VFX.

At last!

 

[Ingram]

 

[tolm]

Now that the Odyssey content updates have finished (what was announced), will FD turn to other, more Powerplay shaped matters?

Probably waaaay off topic but I think we need some multi-part missions that link the parts of the game together:

Planet Based:

• Clear the skies above a settlement (essentially a ship-based CZ)
• Drop out on foot or SRV and fight ground resistance to get into the base
• Steal a thing / shut-down the base / etc

Similarly, Space Based:

• Clear enemy ships around a mega-ship
• Disable the mega-ship
• Launch a fighter (or possible EVA) to fly inside the mega-ship and dock
• Locate the bridge (fighting on-foot resistance)
• Initiate self destruct (requires cloning both the Captain and First Officers security credential - maybe by two different CMDRs for wing-only missions?)
• Eacape back to your fighter before she blows!!

That sort of thing …

 

[Garud]

Since the shipyard is accessible for the FC owners, will the owners themselves be able to access their ships on foot?

 

[Northpin]

Improved the alignment of thrusters on the nose of the Cobra Mk IV

Fixed Stygian paint jobs appearing as the wrong colour on the Cobra Mk IV.

Hmm, mentioning Cobra MkIV twice in the same patch notes... when a lot of people are dying to get one... it's really harsh

edit: joking

edit2: i think

Correct.

Thanks Fdev, good work, I look forward to sitting for the first time in bars!
