Update on Communication
- Thread starter Arthur Tolmie
- Start date
In these turbulent times it’s nice to know you’re our firm foundation. What can give to you, in these trying times?
Don't quite get your examples, I mean the removal of Mac support was announced. Or were you expecting running commentary? Internal memos and meeting notes read out allowed on the Internet?!
I was expecting some indications of the efforts that Frontier claimed they were making to get Horizon to run on macOS, in the same way that I'd expect Frontier to give some indication of how they are going to work out when Odyssey is stable enough to restart the console ports.
Life is full of disappointments
From reading the other sub-forums it looks like the streaming / CM Interaction for the other games were pulled last week as well.
Hopefully is just a blip and not a sign of something bigger.
Tuesday:
Quick update folks, unfortunately we're going to have to cancel this week's Lemnis Gate stream, but they'll be back again next week
Thursday
Doooooooom

Hi Freyja, I've just confirmed the release date in this post.
Thank you @Bruce G for the updates,

This is great, thanks for the update, I hope we can go back to a pre-vacation communication schedule soon. This situation is quite uncomfortable for everyone
I had in mind that it should have been released in February. Last week from Tuesday to Thursday would've been the expected date. Now on the very last day of February - which is one week too late from expected - to tell us in a oneliner it will be legen ... waaaaaait for it ... March the 8th makes me very excited!
Yeah, ohh wait… fleet carrier interior ? EDO? Nevermind, will get back to my friends in the dark console corner 
for all affected guys and girls, have fun with it

I'm not sure if you're aiming that at me? I do remember when a lot of 3rd party developers were going to go on strike though! But I hope you don't think your work is not appreciated by me or that I'm making digs at you either? I'd love to see FDev provide a way to allow you to hook your programs in like plugins so we could access them in game, but that's a discussion for another thread..
It would be funny if FD announced they’d sold up the company including their franchises except for Braben’s baby, ED... cos then he’ll set up new ED company and make a new version with his pockets of cash and lessons learnt....
Lol, sadly nope.

I mean, for grins, if David Braben were to cash out to go solo with Elite, what could he expect to get? He has around 40% of the company and with buyout fever, could £200m+ be a reasonable estimate/start? That would be a pretty good payout and funds to invest in Elite if he so chose.
Honestly knowing you’re all here and supporting my small but growing startup is enough.
