    Elite Dangerous: Horizons patch 2.0.03 incoming

    Greetings Commanders,

    We will be taking the servers offline soon to apply update 2.0.03. The downtime for this update should take no more than 30 minutes. As always, we hope to come in under that time. The servers will go offline at 11AM UK, 6AM Eastern US time.

    Sit back, relax, read the patch notes, and think about the socks.

    CLIENT UPDATES
    Don't crash if an invalid preset is selected in bindings.
    Fixed a crash in trail rendering.
    Prevent a crash if closing bulletin board while the page is updating.
    Fixed a prospecting drone crash.
    Fixed a render crash with asteroid cluster.
    Fixed a crash from NPC launching.
    Zooming into a discovered planet surface map and zooming out will show all unknown planets - fixed.
    Corrected an issue when accumulating replication on SRVs so that we don't halt network replications if the owner is currently in the classified camera.
    Shouldn't have to drive away from the crashed ship sites and Barnacles to be able to recall your ship.
    Fixed a network error when shutting down drones.
    Rebalanced the ice field lighting in the CQC map.
    Fix for at least one cause for broken materials on Radeon HD 5000/6000 GPU's.
    Fix skipping in ident video.
    Plus sign fixed for German language.

    SERVER UPDATES
    When purchasing exploration data, Universal Cartographics is now able to include details on all bodies in a system.
    Fixed a number of star systems with stuck controlling minor factions.

    LAUNCHER UPDATES
    Addition of 'Alternate Download' option for users with slow download speeds.
    Fix for users unable to launch the 32-bit ED client.
    Fix for some new customers not seeing the redeem product prompt.
    Minor background update when launcher is booted via Steam.

    Thanks!

    Going to start grinding Empire quests now so I can get the Clipper. Either that or I just go straight past and grind money for the Python. From there I think I'll easily be able to participate in faction battles and get into the proper meat and bones of the game.

    I would totally recommend the clipper. It's one of my favorite ships and it's very intimidating. But the amount of work it takes to get a rank high enough for it can be an issue. The python is an all rounder. But hell, that clipper is so fast in a straight line for such a large ship. It makes me moist just thinking about it.
    Please keep all extremities tucked in...

    When I sit in my tiny Vulture, I laugh at Anacondas and clippers. Without shields my ship is super tough to lock onto and hit. Though I have not had the opportunity to try attack a Corvette yet and that is what I am looking forward to most.

    You make it sound like that's the only purpose of the game.

    For me I'm quite happy to cruise around fighting in my Eagle. Fuck fighting even, just give me a decent jump range ship and I'll be happy just flying and exploring. It's a perfectly valid way of playing. I just love the sights and lighting, and pictures I can take in this game, the game is amazingly beautiful. So picturesque!



    Makes me want to now document a trip to the outer rim.

    yeah my dinner plate of a Cobra makes quite an easy target to hit.

    Had my first run in with a pair of capital ships yesterday. I didn't stick around too long.

    dude, sight seeing isn't all as great as you think it might be.

    the little bit of exploring I've been doing now it's mostly just a lot of flying around in empty space. you drop into a system, there are maybe three or four planets each about averaged 300,000Ls apart. so you spend about 30-45 minutes flying from one to the other just to go "ooooh so pretty" and then fuckoff to the next system. Rinse. Repeat.

    and once you've seen about 15 planets they all start to look the same. and so far I've only seen 4 types of stars.

    So I'm going exploring for the money. and to see something nobody else has seen before and plant my proverbial flag on it

    I disagree and I love it.

    And I'm okay with that. It's not all about the fighting for me, I'm going to see things I wanna check out, explore, land on, drive on, fly by, etc



    Another reason I'm so amped for No Man's Sky, and another reason why a lot of people will be disappointed with No Man's Sky.
