No you didn't (if you are playing on PC). There were some console only patches after 2.4.03.

2.4.04 was PS4 only, 2.4.06 was Xbox only, then there was a performance option patch for both consoles (presumably 2.4.07), then 2.4.08 where we are now.
The only one missing is 2.4.05, but maybe that was rolled into another patch. Maybe it did roll out on consoles, I don't know. I only know there were no patch notes posted on the forum about 2.4.05 and 2.4.07 specifically (by looking at the thread titles).

So with the change is the AX Fighter now equally as effective as a standard multi-cannon fitted fighter or less effective? I hope they're at least on par, you would figure weapons designed to murder these super OP aliens would at least be just as useful at killing each other ;D

From a new HOTAS One owner thank you, but can you use some space magic and add a place to plug in the headset!?! [blah] Have to pick up a usb hub this week.

PS4

Cisco, take me to this world please.

You forgot about:

  • Fixed research limpets, they now work properly.

I can't believe the ramming scanning ships bug isn't fixed yet, that should honestly be the #1 priority as it's causing players to lose ships when they shouldn't be.

For Sale:
AX Taipan Fighter, like new, low mileage, several available

Yep, now that they've been rendered basically useless outside of messing with thargoids, I've a small fleet of these to replace. I'm not sure why, but for some reason, weapons that are designed to destroy extremely powerful alien ships that aren't even more powerful against human ships, that can't be otherwise engineered... something about this just does not make the best of all sense to me.

But what do I know, I'm just a freighter captain after all.

Go to a low security system to turn in all bounties. Yes this still doesn’t get you into that medium sized dock. If it is that important get yourself an imp eagle(you can make them extremely fast with easily over 25 lys jump range wil fuel scoop) to turn in all the bounties you’ve collected.

Edit: besides. Fighters don’t even have landing gear. Just those tracks to land back on a ship.

They do have landing gear. The NPC ones even land on planet surfaces.

Oh, look, an update!
Fear us, feeble bugs like scramming NPCs, your end is nigh!

Patch notes read: "1. AX fighter nerf, 2, 3, etc.: blablabla, unimportant paintjob + XBOX garbage".

Oh well...
At least I haven't bothered to buy an AX Taipan yet. Lucky me.

PS: update installed, launcher restarted, but it still displays the text "Elite Dangerous 2.4.03" in the upper right corner.
:)

I couldn't find a shipyard that sold them. Would love a few options to try.

But otherwise congrats on the Hotas and keelback fixes. Just don't agree with all the nerfing because we aren't using them only against danger flowers

Greetings commanders, we have 2.4.08 on the way today for you! This update will cover all platforms and will have about 10 minutes of downtime while you download the update, and us updating the servers.

Seems to be taking longer than 10 minutes. has been stuck on <1m for some time.
Button says "working" but is grey.
Not sure whether to shut down and restart or wait?
