Update 9.01 - Patch Notes

Just been to the Ghost Ship orbiting Chukchan 5 B and tried to use my Hatch Breaker but it does not work. I have been here before. Is this a broken thing or am I doing something wrong?
 
I think it’s safe to assume some work was done over the weekend to try and get a patch out. Even if they didn’t the sentiment of being respectful still holds. No, we don’t like the bugs or being unable to play. But we should keep in mind that they don’t like it either.
Sure, being respectful should always apply. But I don't see the need to make up sacrifices. I think it's possible for ~100 developers to create this hotfix within 1.5-2 days.
 
"Hostile ships not being correctly marked on the radar"
I didn't care about the fire groups. This is more annoying then most of what ever was fixed in this small patch. Our Ai fighters can shoot enemies without taking aggro need to be addressed. Defend, the Ai fighter doesn't care you are being attacked. Probably because enemies aren't red.
Yep, the broken IFF seems to work both ways like that which forms the basis of an active and as yet unaddressed exploit.
 
Because even if you halved it, it would still be utterly nutzoids
On the one hand the MLCs would allow people to partake in previously neglected gameplay like distress calls without having to fully commit to the detriment of other activities, but on the other hand nobody wants to install a 60T controller just in case they run across those USSes or some damaged megaships.

Welcome to a taste of console life 2021 edition.

You can still do Horizons stuff right?

I welcomed Oz to join us on Horizons, he got a bit testy.
Both of you seem to not realise that scanning new biological lifeforms can't be done in Horizons.

And as I said before my main character is out in the middle of nowhere scanning new biological life.

Absolutely nothing at all to do with Horizons Vs Odyssey.
 
Yea, something tells me scanning non-interactive plants by staring at them is a bit less of a problem than ruining powerplay for an entire power years ago when it was still something anyone actually cared about. the 180+ people shouldn't hold your breath.
While I can't speak for the rest of them, I am not holding my breath. I've been around the block long enough to know how things go. It's just a bummer. I was really excited about having Vista Genomics on carriers in January and having loads of data to turn in while I'm out here on the Magellan Experience. Now I'm put off from even touching down on planets because I'm altogether unsure if I'll be able to log any data other than Codex scans which are....well....mostly useless.
 
This is literally game breaking for me. I cannot play until it is fixed, as I am over 20,000Ly from anywhere scanning Biological life. If one of the new professions introduced in Odyssey is not working, should it not be a top priority? To not even include it in the list make me very concerned that I won't be playing over the holiday period at all.
Odyssey working as intended should have been top priority before they launched it. Fast forward more than half a year later and they're still trying to figure out how to "fix" it. By the time it arrives on last gen console (April's fools already?), it will no longer be as sought after.
 
Congratulations on breaking Exobiology. Thank you for waiting until I was about 5000 ly from the bubble gathering samples before you decided to "Update," and completely break exobiology.
And, it's *still broken. At least half the samples can't be scanned at all. I land on a planet with 7 biological signs and I can only scan *maybe two of them.
Thank you for breaking exobiology. Your timing was perfect, as always.

It is a bit of a bummer for sure - I was going to send my main out on my next exploration expedition whilst I'm off work over Christmas, not much point if bio scanning will remain busted until after that.

Yeah that's probably because he paid for the update...
 
As much as the hostile ship bug affects me more as I rarely explore, it can be worked around - either play in Horizons or take more damage figuring out your enemies direction. So if Frontier can still manage a fix before the holidays, please make it the genetic sampler one. The workaround for that is to miss basically half of the biosamples for however long it takes until the fix...
 
Updates broke, so until it’s fixed it’s either play horizons or sit back and wait.
I know, that's exactly what I'm doing.

Perhaps the posters are suggesting you are in the same boat as them, unable to use Odyssey content?
Oh have they paid for Odyssey too? Sorry, I thought they were people who played on the console platforms, must be getting my user names mixed up again because you'd obviously never draw a false equivalence like that.

(As I've said roughly 10,000 times now, I totally get the frustration of our console companions but one thing I can say categorically is that no matter how much they might want to, they have not paid for Odyssey already.)
