I wonder how many people will think console is getting the Odyssey update tomorrow and not just some bug fixes lol. Should probably clarify in the post that it is not the console Odyssey update, some people are quick to read and make assumptions. @sallymorganmoore

Oh come on my "select fixes" part covers this surely :')? I'm not gunna change it (said with a smile). I trust the Commanders :') o7

Best of luck, Frontier! I hope this is the patch we've all been waiting for so the Elite community can heal and come back together again.
It's probably to late for that but we can hope that it isn't the mess that update 7 was. As to the community coming back together that cant happen until the merge. Will be interesting to see how some of the fixes pan out as the description of the fixes was deceptively vague. Best back up key binds I'm a creature of habit.
 
Why not just post the patch notes? Surely they won't change in ~24 hours time?

The secrecy surrounding such benign stuff is incomprehensible to me.

Because they have NEVER released patch notes the day/night before an update.

It's got nothing to do with secrecy it's SOP for Frontier.

I never realized they had such a ridiculous policy around patch notes. Been playing for a very long time and mostly ignored patch announcements since <= Horizons was pretty stable. Only reason I'm paying attention now is I have my fingers crossed for certain fixes (eg: lighting). So... uhm... nevermind.

It's like FD's entire communication strategy is designed to alienate. Bizarre.

Frontiers communications strategy in the past has been reactive instead of proactive.

You get used to it.
 
Lookin' forward to the patch and the patchnotes. Let's see, what's in that box... hope for some content or QoL stuff on EDH @ Consoles. Landed my Krait savely at Dav's hope, turned off all systems, shut down the main reactor and wait for the Over-the-air-update to upgrade my Krait's mainframe... Gn8
