Update 11 - Release Date Change

Thread Closed: Not open for further replies.
im quite pessimistic about this update. rumor that the carrier interiors are coming in update 11. i dont trust it, frontier has a history of delays after delays after delays for major features to be released. i will be happy if my pessimism is proven wrong this one time.
If there is a delay, you lose nothing you haven't got already.
If it isn't delayed, yay.
 
The major issue is not even the delays, but the lack of new content, gameplay and a terrible communication.
The "funny" part, they promised that they would improve the communication after the "fiasco Odyssey release".
To be fair, Odyssey may lack of new content, but they fixed the vast majority of issues.
It's a solid framework to add new content.

I don't like nms, Hello games is always in silence mode, but the deliver a lot of new content and gameplay. A LOT. And in a shot period of time.

Let's hope Frontier change the behavior and their "speed" after they announce they won't release odyssey for old Gen consoles.

I believe!

Cheers
Others would say the biggest issue is none of that, its lack of Odyssey on consoles. So were Frontier to make a big push to add new content, you’ll get console commanders complaining. As it stands, many of them respond to things like the emotes, the Scorpion, and FC interiors with disdain and anger.

Damned if they do, damned if they don’t.

Even if (by some miracle) they delivered a stream of content and narrative that delighted 99.99% of players, this forum would still be populated by the 0.01% complaining that the game’s ruined, Frontier don’t care about what the community really wants, and that everything currently in game is useless.

Source?

So what's your advice then? Frontier should close the forum, stop all communication and probably cease development as well I suppose.
 
Oh yes! Let's just talk about how we feel about something - which can never be wrong - and usher in a new era of completely argument-free conversation.
And while we're at it, I feel that all planets should be triangular. And don't you dare question that. 😬

So, that's a type of flat right?
 
60 FPS everywhere, even in ground High CZ with fires...
I can play EDO in VR on my Valve index too with a consistent 90 FPS.

All with mostly Ultra settings and no AMD 'helpers' switched in. (and in 4K resolution)

But, with my hardware, if the expansion was better optimised, I'd be expecting around 50 - 100% better performance, but the expansion has issues still, so I don't have that luxury.

I'm unable to comment in any meaningful way as to how the performance of the expansion has improved or not since the end of November, hardware changes has removed the frame of reference I used to us
I get in VR 30 to 60 FPS@RTX 3090 with mostly ultra enabled. Could you share your settings. 90 FPS@VR seems very high with ultra settings.

Experiment with settings... I use a 6900XT GPU and 5900X CPU. Perhaps the combination works well together?
You are not the first to post unexpected results with the 3090, which is interesting.
 
I'm kind of taking it easy these days, is Mar 8 the time when the update lands and we get to see the eager young CM faces again via images delivered in rapid succession?

You're right. Console players still in a worst place.
There is still hope for new Gen consoles.
For the last Gen... Forget about it. (my bet)
They're planning how and when to announce.

Still... Terrible communication.

Cheers.
 
No, think of pyramids... In a way they are "flat", but only until you reach a border where you would tip over to the other side.
But wait a minute...
You're not really going to argue with me about this nonsense now, are you?
Ah sorry, forgot. This is dangerous discussion. 😜
But pyramids aren't triangles, most of them don't even have all their sides as triangles.

Actually it is still News and Bulletins if it keeps going after U11 drops maybe they will move it to DD.

Yes, to this part (The rest doesn't seem to have anything to do with what you're replying to).

It's only here as a matter of history and I'm not really sure what anyone Frontier gains from posting here apart from the same announcements they would put on Facebook/Twitter.

I have to disagree.
They should close down Facebook/Twitter & Reddit(?), but then I would say that as I don't read the others.
So what they gain is access to those like me.
 
Congrats for this. 😉 😂

ps: sorry but gallow humor should be allowed

Instead of closing the forum, us users could stop harassing the CMs, complaining about FDev, and fighting each other. We could instead use it for helping each other, and with a bit of luck get the occasional nugget of information and the occasional discussion with a CM looking for information from the player base. I know, a pipedream.. :)

I knew you weren’t really dead John.


P.S. Love your music, I’m your number two fan
 
I like the forums, but they're not very practical.

For example, the current CG. The reward details are buried 8 pages deep in one of the two threads about it, meaning most players have absolutely no idea about it, what the decals are, the fact the rewards are super-engineered, and so on.

If they were posted on Twitter instead, then everyone could know immediately. All the memes and crap could be filtered out, and only the important questions(which is to say, the ones Fdev replies to) would be seen.

The forums are 85% useless memes, 10% useless suggestions that will never be seen, 4% player-run events(which would probably be better on Reddit or Discord anyway), and 1% actual, relevant information.

And that's probably being generous.

If they ditched the forums, let the community fully shift over to Reddit, and did everything via twitter, I don't doubt for a second that the overall experience would be dramatically better.
