News Winters Powerplay Decal now contained in free decal pack

It's not fair at all.

I agree. It's basically flaming the OP about something off-topic to this thread (and as you say is discussed in other threads) perpetrated by whingers.

Moderators should remove all those off-topic comments from this thread.
 
Yesss! Thats my decal! Do you see that, ZYADA? Thats the symbol you will see when all your slaves are free, every lawless dictator empowered and peace and wealth are finally brought back into our galaxy!

Unfortunately, the art team isn't very good at coding. We've lots of people on the Elite Dangerous development team, not just a few people.

Thanks for your concerns however. :D
Ouch! Do they read the forums?! Aren't you normally in a different country to them, never mind office? If so you're pretty well out of range of any reprisals :D
 
No mystery dude, they were saving it for when things got bad. If that gal-map is not fixed before the weekend i demand an Elite logoed lollypop.
You can fix it yourself in the meantime by rotating the vertical axis to show the hidden horizontal plane and circle ;)

I'd rather leave our art team making beautiful art, textures, the whole nine yards of awesome eye candy - rather seeing them getting shifted into actual game client and server coding. :p

Hey Brett, hard question for you, but are you able to shed any light on exactly what happened to cause such seemingly catastrophic release of 2.3? I know that's quite putting you on the spot, but perhaps its possible to get a word from someone more senior?

Well then ... can you see about getting the art team to look at creating some Major Faction decals? You know: Fed, Imp & Alliance? I'll certainly pry open my wallet for a Federation decal. Already have one on my fight suit ... need one for the bow of my FAS.
 
Wait wait wait, hold on - I can't believe FDev would just sit on the missing decal for a couple of weeks and only now unlock it, and the new patch only comes out next week. Does this mean that decals don't need a client update?

Agreed, but boy do they need better management/Quality Control. On the store items, some of the quality is real shoddy and the variation is lazy. On these in particular there is some very lazy aliasing and outlining, just look at them close-up. I wouldn't dream of giving that quality to my customers (yes I'm a graphic designer, hence my fussiness).

Add to that, they want me to pay $15aud for some poorly designed triangles to attach to a Cobra... It's rather... confronting. To say the least.

When there's no more eye candy to add to ED then I think we can assume the 10 year plan has finished...so I hope they never stop!

And re the quality remark, personally I've not noticed any issues, but then I'm not looking for it. But now I think about the amount of work that must go into them, the paintjobs are a bargain at the price they are now!
