Update 14 and Beyond: Live and Legacy Modes

I'm a console player. Neither do I have or want to have PCs in my living room, where we use to play. Console players do have another rig, and I will definitely not change my (life-, play-) style for FDev. If they let ED die on console, ED is dead to me, it's that simple.
Ryxen 5 3500X, 16GB DDR4 3200 (6 core 3,6GHz without boost), GTX1660S 6GB here. No problem with performance as explorer (in deep space). Inside FC and outposts some FPS lower rates, but acceptable (cosmetic only). But get in or get out SRV black screens persists, no matter many times this problem was raised on bug reporting service... no effect. We (explorers) feels literally ignored by developers. All actions and corrections was targeted to FPS style "on foot" gamers. Bugs and again BUGS are main problem for accepting Odyssey with many of us, USERS who PAID for this game for entertaiment, not for another workhours or voluntary support.

You can just respond 'yes'. At least it would be there and you can play Ge-Force now in your living room, on your xbox and/or Playstation.
 
I'm PC user and I'm supporting all console users. In short words: Odyssey was crap at release and now is not well finished program. Maybe in FPS/on foot game it is finished enough, but in terms of exploration (my role) it is still buggy enough to repel me from accept new version as main.
So are you saying the experience you draw from is now your own personal experience or from what others said, as you stated originally? Or both?
 
Shame that console players judging by this update have only so long it seems before it be a MIRACLE to encounter a player in open anymore, even at crowded spaces like CGs or PvP hubs like Deciat or Shinny...
You know, and this is in general and not aimed at you specifically, but your post brought this to my mind.. but I think it may be more profitable overall to not focus on what is going to be an inevitability and complaining loudly and maybe embrace the fact that 3.8 is going to be a snapshot of the old galaxy and maybe see if Frontier will tweak it to allow for zero cost engineering and stuff like that. I'm sure there will be some locations that will still be popular.
 
Basically, it's what they mean by 'legacy'. Looking at the overall picture, I actually think it is rather nice of FDev to not just shut it down. Onwards and upwards, I'm looking forward to Update 14..
If Odyssey will be "bug free" at least at Horizons level I will be happy at all to accept new version and simply go on. But it isn't ... problem lays here.
 
Odyssey gives me better feels than Horizons so I'm fine, speaking personally, as I'm sure you were also.
Agree, first look was promising, new exobiology stuff - nice. Graphisc not well, but it's not a goal for this type of game - no problem. But loosing SRV on get out and after relog from main menu and stranded on foot without SRV (orbiting with ship somewhere) after genetic scan... it was enough for suspend Vista Gen on FC and quit playing in Odyssey. Game are for fun, not for another stress after work. At least for me personally.

Mainly personal experience because I'm not playing in open mode. It not was my goal. I'm RPG passionate and Solo mode was key feature to buy this title.
 
Interesting question. Since Arx are bound to your account instead of to your CMDR, I assume the limit stays the same.
ARX is simple "add on" for me, not required but nice stuff anyway. After split action (at 29 th) ARX will be separately added to both copies of profiles.
 
I guess time will tell, and it sounds reasonable that the limit stays the same per commander, so you could earn in either version but still be capped at 400.

Per commader or "profile' after split "galaxy" action. Some things not changes for centuries.

The last game I'd played on PC was BioShock Infinite, while the pc is quite some years older. Plus it have a ATI Video card. Didn't expect GeForce Now would be running at all.
I'm RPG single player passionate. Horizon Zero Dawn, Witcher 3 and Dragon Age Inquisition played at high or ulttra graphics settings... but ED is unable to run at this settings, Strange.

Probably because the other games you listed were properly optimised!!

And also they were for "last gen" consoles, but again mostly I'd say it's due to optimisation! 😯😂😀🤘
