Die Beta für 1.4 CQC ist seit gestern auf PC draussen.
CQC macht Laune, Spieler ohne Beta access oder lifetimepass müssen aber dennoch etwas auf das Final release warten.

[Knollo]

Elite: Dangerous wird ab 6. Oktober kein Preview Spiel mehr sein.

Die Xbox-One-Vollversion von Elite: Dangerous soll am 6. Oktober 2015 an den Start gehen, sagte David Braben (CEO von Frontier Developments) bei einer Fragerunde. Derzeit ist das Weltraumspiel im Xbox Game Preview Programm (GPP) erhältlich - vergleich mit Early Access. Alle GPP-Teilnehmer sollen zudem eine Belohnung erhalten. Braben stellte ebenfalls klar, dass die Erweiterungsstaffel Horizons für Xbox One erscheinen wird und Betatests künftiger Updates auf der Microsoft-Konsole durchgeführt werden sollen. Ob Speicherstände zwischen PC und Xbox One übertragen werden können, ist noch nicht klar. Im Rahmen des Game Preview Programms erspielte Schiffe und Module wird man nicht in das finale Spiel übernehmen können - das Geld hingegen schon.

[AndiBcool]

Gibt es für diese Aussage auch eine Quelle ? Auf der Elite Dangerous Homepage habe ich davon noch nichts gelesen.
Macht nicht so viel Sinn den Spielstand zu zerstören wenn man das Geld mitnehmen kann, es sei denn die Preise auf der Xbox sind zu billig für die Schiffe.
In der Beta für den PC kosten die Raumschiffe ca 1/10 vom richtigen Preis.

Viel besser ist doch eher die Nachricht, das die X-Box Spieler bald auch auf den PC/Mac Testserver kommen um das Update 1.4 einem Stresstest zu unterziehen.

CQC in Game

[AndiBcool]

Heute kommt ED offiziell als Final Release auf XBOne raus.
Entgegen dieser Falschmeldung von 4players, poste ich mal den offiziellen Forenbeitrag für die Early Access Members.

Hi all,

As many of you will know we're going to be moving from the Game Preview Program to the full launch on Tuesday October 6.

There are a few pieces of important information for you to know so please have a read of the details below. If you have any questions pop them on this thread and we'll do our best to answer them and add them at the bottom for all to see.
At launch the servers will be down from 8am BST for approximately 6 hours while the final update is migrated. We’ll post any changes to these times on our forum.

Here is a list of things that will happen when your account transitions into the full game. Again, if you have any questions, just ask.

New Commander accounts will start with a credit balance of 5,000 – existing Commanders will keep their current credit balance.

The following ships become locked to purchase unless you have the correct Rank:

Imperial Courier
Imperial Clipper
Federation Dropship
Federation Assault Ship
Federation Gunship



Everything else will be copied as it has been for previous GPP updates :-

Current Missions will expire
Unsold exploration data will be removed and credited
Exploration history will be lost, including any first discovered planets (This does mean that you could get more credits from exploring everything again)
Keep the location that you last logged out from
Keep all Ships, Modules, Cargo, Damage and Fuel
Keep Ranks for Exploration, Trade, Combat and CQC
Keep Powerplay Rating, Merits and Duration spent at that rating
Keep Minor Faction reputation
Keep Bounties, Fines, Vouchers and Permits.
Keep Statics - Balance, Combat, Crime, Smuggling, Trading, Mining, Exploration, CQC Stats




Updated answers:

Info about the download...

The download will be 5.3gig and the download will be available while the servers are down so you can get ready to jump straight into the full version!

Will I keep my Naval Rank?

Yes, this will follow you through to the full game

What about ships that I don't have the rank for?

If you own the ship already you will keep the ship. If you die, you will not get the ship back. Unless you have insurance. Where you will get the ship back.


Thanks,

Zac

Ich muss dringend mal wieder ins Game reingucken. Hab ja mehr die Beta gespielt als das fertige Produkt.
Was genau ist verändert worden?
Kann man noch auf wenigstens deutsche Untertitel bzw Übersetzungen der Questlogs hoffen? Kann man sich Horizons bereits herunterladen? Finde da irgendwie nichts.

[AndiBcool]

Ich spiele das Spiel nur auf PC, von daher kann ich dazu leider nicht so viel sagen.
Der Vorteil beim PC ist:
1. Die wesentlich bessere Grafik
2. Bis auf ganz aktuelle Berichte im GalNet ist das Spiel komplett in Deutsch
3. Erweiterung Horizons schon seit Dezember 2015 verfügbar
4. mehr Anschlussmöglichkeiten für Zubehör
5. volle VR Unterstützung
6. diverse Mods und 3rd Party Software ( z.B. Voice Attack )
7. einfache Steaming Möglichkeit für Youtube/Twitch
8. Spieleextras wie Wackelköpfe und andere Lackierungen für Raumschiffe verfügbar
9. 64 Bit Client

Horizons ist bisher nur interessant, wenn Du auf Planeten landen oder über die Oberfläche fliegen willst. Es gibt Stationen auf den Planeten, wo Du landen kannst oder auch Überfälle machen kannst. Zudem gibt es Raumschiffwracks, Mineralien zum sammeln sowie so eine Art außerirdische Pflanzen. Achja mit dem SRV kannst Du auch auf den Planeten rumfahren.
Außerdem sind für das normale ED und Horizons neue Schiffe hinzu gekommen.
Im Frühling erscheint die Erweiterung Engineers, wo Du selber Module bauen kannst.

Für den PC ist zudem eine Arena Version von ED erschienen, diese beschränkt sich nur auf den CQC ARENA Modus.

Für den Mac wird kein Horizons erscheinen, das liegt allerdings hauptsächlich an Apple, weil dort die Schnittstellen und Treiber für die aufwendigere Grafik fehlen.

Das Horizons Update ist nun auch ein günstiges DLC welches ohne das Hauptspiel nicht mehr funktioniert. Das wurde hauptsächlich so geändert weil sich viele über den hohen Preis beschwert haben.

Hier noch ein paar Screenshots die ich mal gemacht habe.

Danke für Deinen Support was das Game angeht.
Du ich denk rein grafisch sehen die Spiele ziemlich gleich aus. Die One Version haben sie toll hinbekommen!
Aber ich tu mich echt schwer mit den Einstellungen und vor allem aber mit den Missionen.

Mein Raumschiff z.B. war total "verstellt" - konnte gar nicht mehr schießen. War dann in den Einstellungen, Waffenprioritätseinstellungen etc. - nix. Musste das Schiff dann zerstören und mit dem neuen hat dann alles geklappt. Ist natürlich nicht der Weisheit letzter Schuss... ähm Schluss

Außerdem hab ich da grad ne Mission dass ich 3 Piraten abschießen muss im Sektor XY bzw Sternsystem xy, aber ich hab keine Koordinaten dafür, weder auf der Galaxiekarte noch auf der Systemmap. Wer Elite kennt, der weiß dass das Spiel GROSS ist. Muss ich jetzt rumfliegen und hoffen dass ich angegriffen werde?

Wie schauts aus mit echten Spieler Begegnungen? Hatte bisher noch keine Einzige Ich hoffte immer Elite wäre ne Art MMORPG im Weltraum? Ich spiele doch Open Play (?)

Klar ist die Galaxie einfach nur gigantisch (!) aber dennoch wäre es toll, wenn man sich mit nem anderen Spieler treffen könnte und zusammen auf Piratenjagd gehen dürfte.

Zock das Spiel mit nem Turtlebeach Headset und der Sound des Spiels fetzt einfach mal alles weg

Engage!!!

Kann ich noch auf eine deutsche Übersetzung hoffen was die One Version angeht? Wenigstens die Missionsbezeichnungen könnte man doch auf Deutsch anbieten.

[AndiBcool]

Du kannst die Tasten und alles komplett umlegen, wie es Dir gefällt. Auf der rechten Seite siehst Du im Schiff alles was mit deinem Schiff zu tun hat, unter anderem auch die Feuergruppen. Wenn Du neue Waffen kaufst kan es sein, dass Du diese noch zuweisen musst. Die Einstellungen für das Joypad kannst Du auf dem PC auch problemlos im Hauptmenü zurücksetzen.

In der Galaxiekarte gibt es mehrere Reiter, unter anderem auch eine Suchmaschine, dort trägst Du den Namen ein und das System wird dann rausgesucht. Um die Piraten zu bekommen hast Du mehrere Möglichkeiten:
1. Du fliegst in ein Abbaugebiet ( RES ), dort lungern immer Piraten rum.
2. Ist in dem System kein RES, suchst Du nach unidentifizierten Signalen oder schwachen Signalen im Supercruise. Auswählen und wenn in Reichweite den Supercruise verlassen. Oft tifft man dort auch Piraten.
3. Du holst Dir einen Frameshift Unterbrecher, suchst im Supercruise Piraten unter Kontakte und ziehst Diese, mit dem Gerät aus dem Supercruise.

Missionen haben einen Timer, der auch mit läuft wenn man ausgeloggt ist. Wenn Du Missionen nicht schaffst hat das Einfluß auf deinen Ruf. Mit einem guten Ruf und höheren Rängen bekommst Du fast immer bessere und höher bezahlte Missionen.
Anfangs würde ich nur kleine Liefermissionen machen. Wenn genug Geld vorhanden eine Adder kaufen und diese für den Bergbau ausstatten.
Dann zusehen um eine Cobra MK3 zu kaufen und diese auch für Bergbau, Handel oder Kopfgeldjagd ausstatten. Ich würds wohl in der Reihenfolge machen, erst Bergbau mit der Cobra bis zu einem guten Framshiftantrieb und D Modulen, dann ein paar seltene Waren einsammeln und 150 LJ zurücklegen und diese dann mit viel Gewinn verkaufen. Sobald die Cobra dann an den wichtigen Stellen A Module hat würde ich damit Kopfgeldjagt machen.
Danach muss man sehen was man lieber macht. Wer gerne abschießt holt sich einen Imperialen Courier oder gleich eine Vulture, wer lieber flexibel bleiben möchte holt sich einen Asp Explorer. Natürlich gibt es auch Schiffe dazwischen, das ist jedem selber überlassen. Im Prinzip machen alle Schiffe Spaß.
Ich habe derzeit 1,17 Milliarden Credits im Besitz, in Bargeld aber nur 160 Millionen. Das andere Geld ist in die verschiedenen Raumschiffe investiert. Hab aber dennoch noch nicht alle. Bis auf die Federal Corvette fehlen mir aber keine hochpreisigen Schiffe und im Mittleren Bereich sind es auch nur noch Fer de lance, und Orca. Sofern es anders nicht mehr Sinn macht (z.B. beim Cutter fürs handeln), sind auch alle Raumschiffe in A Grade Ausstattung.

Da ich überwiegend nur Solo spiele sehe ich andere Spieler meist nur im CQC oder wenn Freunde online sind in meiner privaten Gruppe.
Wenn Du andere Spieler treffen möchtest, musst Du entweder in die Startersysteme gehen z.B. LHS 3447 oder schauen wo Community Goals stattfinden. Dort ist die Gefahr auch hoch abgeschossen zu werden.

Wie es mit der XBox Version weiter geht kann ich auch nicht sagen, generell arbeiten die Entwickler hauptsächlich an der Horizons 2.1 Erweiterung Engineers. Die Mac Version bekommt keine Erweiterung, ob noch Zeit für die XBox Version bleibt ist unklar.
Sofern es Updates für das normale Elite Dangerous auf dem PC gibt, kommen diese auch für die XBox Version. Warum keine Übersetzungen verfügbar sind kann ich auch nicht sagen, die sind ja auf dem PC vorhanden.
Wahrscheinlich ist das auf der Xbox nicht so einfach oder benötigt noch Zustimmung von Microsoft, woran es aber letztlich liegt weiß ich auch nicht.

Sofern Du viel mit Elite Dangerous spielen möchtest und einen guten Rechner hast, würde ich das Spiel lieber auf dem PC spielen.
Das Hauptspiel auf der XBox ist ja durchaus ausreichend und gut, die Vorteile am PC überwiegen aber.
Horizons stellt jedenfalls noch eine ganze Menge mehr Anforderungen an die Hardware, es wäre zwar schön wenn es noch auf XBox erscheint, drauf wetten würde ich aber nicht.

[yammar]

Moin. Was das addon Horizons angeht das erscheint auf der Xbox jedoch mit schwammigem Release datum " before 4Q 2016"
Was die deutsche übersetzung angeht die wird wohl irgendwann kommen, es gab im Dezember kurzzeitig einen bug welcher das Game auf deutsch setzte aber dieser wurde schnell behoben, es gibt zwar keine ofizielle ankündigung für die übersetzung aber da bin ich guter Dinge.

Das mit dem verstellt hatte ich damals auch das lag an der finalen Version die hatten da die grundeinstwllungen verändert musste alles umstellen dann ging es wieder.

Ander spieler sieht man schon ab und an es gibt systeme in denen ist eben mehr aktivität als in anderen.
Spieler erkennst du an den unausgefüllten Rechtecken auf dem Radar.

An der Raumstation "Ising Vision" Weis leider das System nicht hallt sich die spielergruppe Pixel bandits security herum.
Sind ganz nette. Haben auch ne fb Gruppe und helfen neueinsteigern gerne mal weiter.

Hoffe ich konnte etwas helfen

Ein Video für Fred, damit er noch mehr Lust bekommt sich noch ein paar Raumschiffe zu besorgen

[AndiBcool]

@ Fred Stiller
Wie weit biste denn nun bei Elite ?
Da meine Handelsroute derzeit nicht so strapaziert wird, mache ich 3 Millionen mit dem Cutter hin und zurück. Sind dann in der Stunde zwischen 12 und 15 Mil.
Werde aber dennoch bald nur noch Bounty hunting machen, damit ich vor dem nächsten Update im Kampf auf Elite stehe, derzeit sind noch 44% zu füllen.
Beim Handel bekomme ich 1% mehr ca alle 6 Millionen Profit. Ist aber auch absehbar wann ich dort ebenfalls Elite bin.

Habe ja schon Horror den Entdekerrang auch Elite zu bekommen und auch CQC wird sicherlich eine ganze Weile dauern.

Boah ich glaub Du zockst das Game schon um einiges intensiver als ich derzeit. Ich komme meist nur dazu mal ne Stunde oder zwei reinzugucken und das wird einem Elite natürlich nicht gerecht.

Ich spiele es aber immer wieder mal und bin nach wie vor begeistert.

[AndiBcool]

Nö eigentlich nur immer ca 1 Stunde am Tag manchmal auch gar nicht. Wenn ich Glück habe schaffe ich im RES 2% pro Stunde mit der Anaconda hin und wieder aber auch nichts beim Kampf.
Handel ist da deutlich entspannter. Allerdings spiele ich das Spiel schon ca 1 Jahr.

Wenn Du mal auf PC spielst oder die Xbox Leute mit den PClern zusammen spielen dürfen, können wir ja mal ne Runde Piraten abschießen gehen. Kannst Dir dann auch das Raumschiff aussuchen welches ich dann benutzen soll.
Wobei ich dann lieber Vulture, Fer-de_Lance oder Conda nehmen würde.

Heute ist ja ein schöner Patch für die Xbox erschienen. Viel Spass mit den Paintjobs

[AndiBcool]

Horizons erscheint für Xbox one.


Elite Dangerous: Horizons for Xbox One will launch in quarter two of 2016, featuring both 2.0: Planetary Landings and the forthcoming 2.1: The Engineers expansions.

Elite Dangerous and Elite Dangerous: Horizons are fully back and forward compatible with one another. All players who upgrade to Elite Dangerous: Horizons will retain their in-game progress and all players will fly together in the same shared galaxy.

Was hast es mit dem Physiksystem da auf sich? Hatte Elite vorher keines, oder warum wird das nun so in den Vordergrund gestellt?

Hatte mir den 2 GB Patch geladen in der Hoffnung dass nun endlich deutsche Texte da sind... Nöp. Was ist eigentlich neu dazugekommen, außer ein neuer Titelbildschirm?

Find ich inzwischen irgendwie ziemlich arm.

[AndiBcool]

Der Patch sollte dann wohl das hier sein und kein neuer Inhalt:

Greetings Commanders,

We’ve got a patch incoming today which will update both PC and Xbox One versions.

The servers for all players will be going offline at 10am BST and we’re expecting them to be back up, online and ready to download within a few hours.

- Buildings texture fixes
- Fixed floating decals on buildings
- Extended foundations on the Dome outbuildings to help prevent them from floating over the ground on very bumpy terrain
- Fix various floating buildings
- Added an extension to the entrance ramp to improve access to a crater base if its placed on particularly bumpy terrain
- Removed some rogue ground polygons which sometimes clipped into planetary port hangars
- Fixed intersecting text on low lod of medium sized planetary hangar
- Don't generate small rocks within planetary ports
- Fixed offset UVs on the small planetary landing pad, which was causing textures to pop between LODs

Celestial Bodies:

- Prevent rings intersecting moons
- Make sure that a ring is not completely invisible
- Planet pops in and out of view when close to the edge of the viewport fixed
- Graphics settings-dependant rocks now placed near existing rocks to maintain patch layout, so that graphics settings now only affect the general density, rather than the pattern of placement
- Small surface rocks now generate right up to and around settlements
- Game is not waiting for physics terrain to be ready on start-up at planet fixed
- Reduce the green component of the starlight starting with surface temperatures greater than 8000K. This moves the colour scheme more towards the expected colour range for O-B stars
- Reduce the maximum brightness from the star so that not every system follows the full range. This is a loose guard to stop dim stars with a nearby frost line from having high-albedo planets in over bright conditions
- Fix the desaturated starlight target - it had been transitioning to full-grey instead of a fraction of the true/conventional colour mix
- Fix a bug where patch lighting wasn't being generated and causing planets to render at low detail
- Disable the terrain depth prepass render nodes when the player isn't on near/on the planet surface
- Ejecta crater basins, edges, and multiring regions play nice with each other - the subsequent craters in the array should (mostly) stamp out the previous ones
- A layer of noise from crater basins has been removed as it misbehaves for planets with large radius
- The europa line depths have been exaggerated for large planets
- Various optimisations for planet surface rendering
- Add a very low terrain option for use in environment map captures
- Optimisations for weapon effects on planet surfaces
- Improved LOD management over distance
- Enable asteroid shadow casting in ultra quality settings
- Put the rocky/metal asteroid shaders into the correct FX list, there's no need for them to be doing any forward rendering
- Add high quality bloom settings and preset updates for new bloom settings. Currently enabled for ultra and high presets for Win64 and OSX, and also enabled for Xbox One. The previous bloom has been kept in as a cheaper medium setting
- Colour re-balance and general housekeeping for Rocky asteroid rings.
- Changed billboard colour to better match "real" rocks
- Tweaked billboard normal to give better surface detail
- Tweaked fog effects when in ring to add more "atmosphere"
- Balancing pass on Metal and Ice asteroid rings:
- Billboard diffuse textures tweaked to remove shading.
- Billboard colour matched to "real" asteroid diffuse better.
- Billboard normals given more detail.
- Ring fog boosted and balanced for greater atmosphere.
- Ring distant specular brought down into sensible ranges as much as possible
- Transition from distant ring to close up ring (in supercruise) improved to be more visually pleasing
- Fix for large surface rock rotations not matching the correct settings
- Enable asteroid SSS at medium material quality
- Change to help reduce the brightness of ice ring systems
- Texture generation workload size is now increased during System Map loads to compensate for vsync
- Fix environment map null render logic
- Fix black strip artefacts on planets
- Tweak shadow bias settings for planetary approach on ultra to reduce some blocky artefacts
- Fixed non-linear depth for stars and planets
- Fix AO artefacts due to precision issues on terrain patches
- Prevent light showing through planets that use lookup tables for atmosphere scattering, like gas giants
- Implemented alternative technique for baked shadow calculation that removes precision issues. This fixes patchy shadow artefacts on large planets
- Fix an issue where planets were using the wrong lighting when rendering sometimes
- Improve LOD calculation for surface patches
- Replace the authored ring detail texture with a generated texture which is unique for every ringed planet and does not tile
- Scale frequency of detail texture on planet rings so that rings of differing breadths have uniform detail effects
- AMD optimisation for terrain patch generation
- Asteroid billboards are now deferred. This means that the ring fog is able to interact with them correctly
- Changed how planet rings shadow. They now receive more realistic, much less diffused planet shadows. Rings background occlusion values have all been boosted as well
- Fixed the asteroids in the ring sometimes not appearing when dropping out in them
- Planet base dust is now driven from blended surface material colour
- Stop shield geometry being drawing into the environment map (was causing the planets to turn blue sometimes)
- Fix an issue where stellarforge live objects would not get a FOR shift it it happened the same frame as a location transfer, this would mean the live objects would be a few km out of position

Render:

- Fix lens flares from clipping against near plane
- Fix stereoscopic display resolution issues when using borderless window
- Fix for normal maps having an incorrect format in Win64 resource builds
- Add additional options to frame limiter and increase accuracy
- Stop beam laser light sources from flickering
- Added new VR High and Low graphics options
- Fixes for particle visuals when shadows are set to the lowest setting
- Decal rendering optimisations
- Disabling the GUI now dims the HUD lights
- Improved default HBAO settings and fixed reading settings from the graphic configuration XMLs
- Fix AO quality presets for Windows
- Changed how the size for HBAO quarter res elements was calculated in order to avoid any additional aliasing
- Added scaling for the AO radius based on the distance to the camera. This ensures that we get some HBAO contribution on far away objects in large scenes (such as station interiors and settlements).
- Environment map blending optimisations
- Rebalanced shadows for all quality levels and profiles
- Fixed the light diffusion on lit dust

VR/3D:

- Fix HMD cockpit position for ships
- Fix VR performance issue in glide mode
- Fix for no head look when in hyperspace
- Updated the main menu hangar
- Fix headlook not working when playing on a 3D TV
- Make 3D mode revert to off when options attempt to set HMD when it is not present
- Update hangar VR cameras

Steam:

- Instead of always blocking the "shift+tab" button combo for the steam overlay, look up the current steam users steam overlay binding and block that key combo in game

Stellar Forge:

- Rename some duplicate star systems
- Capitol is no longer a water world
- Change StellarForge population to match system data in LHS 2819
- Renamed CEECKIA ZQ-L C24-0 to Beagle Point
- The authored Naraka system has been renamed to Arbuda
- Renamed EACTAINDS GN-W C1-6 to Rendezvous Point
- Renamed duplicate HR 6946 to Mammon

- Use localised strings for star types that previously weren't
- Fix some localisation issues with the training scenarios
- Localised Galnet's Powerplay prediction
- Adjusted ship name to cover 2 lines instead of 1 in the shipyard

Xbox One Specific:

- Fix physics crash with overheating ship and fuel scooping
- Fix softlock entering or leaving supercruise
- Fix error retrieving star data when the data hasn't loaded yet
- Add option to hide user's presence in rich presence
- Unable to see any notifications in the top right panel about the flag in CTF fixed
- When a player is invited into a game, try to use your squads suggested team as your suggested team, this should help the xBox backfill matchmaking make better team suggestions for new members
- Allow comms to remain open between squad mates until a CQC game starts, then it will switch over to team comms. After a match has ended it will go back to squad comms
- Fix issue with player being kicked if they're Live data wasn't properly initialised as the session was being created
- Activate panel controls while focussed on the scanner panel for consistency - can now use pad B to exit the focus
- Docking computer activates hardpoints and fires at station without player input

Was die Sprache betrifft, uf dem PC kann ich im launcher Auswählen welche Sprache ich haben möchte.
Wie das bei der XBox ist kann ich Dir nicht sagen.

Allerdings kann ich anhand der beta schon sagen, Horizons lohnt sich jetzt noch mehr und generell wird nun alles noch lebendiger.

Achso Fred noch 10% bis Elite im Kampf
