    Unfortunately I did not get a chance to test the mission timer last night. Was too busy playing around with GUI disabled and taking high resolution screenshots. Perhaps tonight I will have some better luck.

    Although I did discuss a lot of the new developments with friends:
    The Corvette is one serious beast now in beta3.
    SCBs got a decent enough buff, with a certain build you can use them to make shields very potent.
    The new bi-weave shields are interesting but I don't see a lot of players using them.
    The cutter has some serious firepower, it's downfall comes with agility. It's only slightly faster at turning than the Type-9. Which is bad, however it can take more cargo. So that's a fair trade off.
    There's a new type of mine launcher that does more damage to shields than hull. But I have not had a chance to test this out yet.

    [MENTION=4816]axon1988[/MENTION] - would be cool to squad up some time. I'll probably put more time in this weekend.

    [MENTION=4924]Wyzak[/MENTION] - I think you have the Cyborg X (FLY5) ne? I ended up formatting my machine and lost something along the way as now my ED has no assignments to it, and of course the game doesn't recognise the joystick.
    Also, when going into the devices properties in Windows, the yaw axis doesn't go all the way to the right, works fine to left.

    Cool, cmdr name is bologniusmaximus.

    About your fly5. I used to fly with one till a couple of months ago. Have never had issues with the game not detecting it. Not quite sure what you are having issues with either, could you elaborate? I would like to try and help out!

    I know Wyzak has had exactly the same issues (if it's him I'm thinking of). The game just doesn't pick it up. Though it has a specified configuration file for it, it just sees it as a generic joystick, therefor forcing you to manually set everything. Though I think it has the standard config which doesn't utilise all the buttons.

    I'll spend an hour or so setting it up. But I also don't see any place to calibrate the device in stupid Windows 10.

    Drivers? I used the generic drivers from mad catz site and it worked perfectly for me. Maybe try the UK region of their site, from what I recall it had different drivers. And run the setup as administrator.

    I have the fly 5 yes. From what I've seen there are multiple variants of it even though they look identical and the game only knows about one (or some) of them.

    See my post here - https://forums.frontier.co.uk/showthread.php?t=69383 if that doesn't help you, I'll dig through my config.

    I found the files on my desktop, but can't seem to attach them here. Drop me a PM with your email and I'll email them to you.

    When an anti-piracy method is affecting the game for people who legitimately bought it and causing other people not to buy the game, there is obviously something wrong with it!

    What is a beacon used for?

    Secondly, is it possible to loan my account to a friend so he could try it before he buys it? [MENTION=5134]MalicE[/MENTION]

    The beacon is used so that your wingmen can join you in a USS.
