Greetings Commanders.

A very happy Friday to you all - here's hoping it's been a good week wherever you've been in The Galaxy.

Here today to give you a heads up on the release of a new gear set for Elite Dangerous: Odyssey Commanders. It's been a little while since the tailoring department has released a new line, so thought this worthy of a share.

Introducing: Metro Badlands

Sporting a mildly modern take on classic camo (I'd say, anyway. That's my view for fun, by the way, as I yarn through this post and not the official view of Frontier Store...), the 'Metro Badlands' pack hosts this new design in 3 colour-ways, sold together for 16520 ARX total.

Which is your favourite piece (only if you have one. Don't feel forced with fashion)?
For me, I like the 'Airtex' feel to the fabric... Read more

Greetings Commanders - Here's wishing you a really strong Monday ahead.

A tidy little Discovery Scanner post for you today which includes an important change to our livestream schedule this week.
*Spoilers for those who may not have time to read through fully yet, but Frameshift Live #15 will be taking place at 16:00 BST on Wednesday the 24th of August this week and not the usual Thursday slot.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

I've read that .... and the question I asked is not answered there. Hence asking it both on Twitter when I asked [USER=266302]@Zac c*cken[/USER] and here and as yet still have no answer to the question.

I can put the question another way if you prefer?

I already have a PC account can the xbox account stuff be transferred to the already existing PC account or do I need to create a NEW Account/CMDR on the PC for everything to be transferred to?

The account can merge in-terms of purchased cosmetics etc but you won't be able to merge your save data. If you want to transfer your Commander data on console to an already existing account on PC, you'll have to delete the Commander save data that already exists on that account on PC.

If you'd rather keep both, you can create a new Frontier account using a different email address during th... Read more

Greetings Commanders!

Another new week and another new month begins in the Galaxy!
This month is shaping up to be one of those months on the excitement and anticipation scale - it's sitting pretty high on it, we can say that much because Update 13 is coming next week!

Actually, allow a little more to be said as I deliver to you today the latest instalment of our Discovery Scanner: https://www.elitedangerous.com/news/discovery-scanner-01082022

Have a wonderful week ahead in the Galaxy, Commanders.

Great post! I love the Viper (and the general niftiness of all small ships).

Greetings Commanders!

Thank you for your feedback on the first Issue Report table that we released last week. We've heard your thoughts relating to lighting in Odyssey and would like to gather some more information so we can look into this further.

We've made note of multiple lighting-related queries that you have raised and the development team are now investigating. One piece of feedback that we'd like Commanders to expand upon is the c*ckpit brightness issue.

We're looking for information to answer the following qu... Read more

1. Lighting and Illumination in Odyssey

Since Odyssey’s launch we’ve made a large number of updates to in-game lighting to bring the experience more in line with Commander expectations. These changes included relighting ship c*ckpits, improving all materials and overhauling star light and station exteriors, to call out just a few.

Following the major changes in Update 6 we’ve now, ... Read more

There are a lot of rumours floating around that EDO won't make it to console, if this is the case would prefer to know sooner rather than later as has been observed it is subjective as to when EDO will be considered "stabilised" enough to allow console development to begin. I used to be able to remain relatively positive regarding EDO but recently this positivity is starting to wane as though feedback has increased there is not really anything substantial that is able to counter said rumours regarding console being scrapped. Basically just wandering if there is any truth to these rumours, as have had prior responses from [USER=188830]@sallymorganmoore[/USER] have tagged you on to this cheers in anticipation......

Maybe FDev want to finally kill ED off so they can focus entirely on making more park management games.

I'd be really, really sad if that happened.

"Navigare Necesse Est, post: 9494248, member: 96034"

They said they are looking to end reloggins and in good FD tradition I expect them to adress the symptom rather than the cause.

This.

SO! Thought I'd pop my head in here because actually it was me that was talking about "The Grind" last week, casually throughout the forum.

There have been some instances where people have experienced the "relog technique" to mat collecting no longer working in areas they were always used to it working before, which caused a whole discussion (a REALLY good one) to cycle up.

It's from that discussion that I've started digging i... Read more
