Elite: Odyssey

Yuna SakashiroI'm on a planet surface right now, the first time since update 10, and I'm seeing some ugly texture pop-in. Haven't seen that since the alpha.

At least the frame rate is fine. Constant 60fps in the SRV and on foot. I'm not near a settlement though.


What video card U B running?

Nvidia 1070.

I've played ground CZ with a friend yesterday. He have a 1070, I've a RX 6600 XT, and we both had a very decent framerate and enjoyed the battleground But I know some other people with a better computer than us who have a bad framerate with frequent FPS drops. We try to understand why, but it's difficult :|

That's strange. Had 20-30 fps on 1080Ti with low everything and 0.75x or smth downscaling. Space flight and combat are completely okay at 75fps, which is a refresh rate of my monitor (1920x1080).

I have around 30-40fps in combat zones with 1.0x and high settings, also trying low settings only gave 3-4fps more so I stay with high settings (Full HD).
On 4K it's 20-26 in combat zones with high settings and in space 60-70 no matter the resolution.

While horizons always has 85-120 in 4K no matter where.

Meanwhile Hello Games have ported No Man's Sky to the Nintendo Switch.

The only settings that make any real difference on the surface for me are the two shadow qualities and terrain quality. Everything else makes a negligible difference (if any at all) so I keep them maxed (I keep scaling at 1.0). I have no issues in space.

I never played NMS but from various videos I am left with impression that it looks very cartoonish. Like Sonic the Hedgehog cartoonish

True, I refunded it the same day, for other reasons too.

This is a feat in itself. Consoles will probably never get Odyssey and Hello Games out here putting a game that renders space, planets, plant life, biomes, UNDERWATER BIOMES, etc, etc etc, on the switch. Lol. I put the underwater in all caps because I redownloaded after the Sentinel release and the underwater gameplay was by far my favorite. People have created whole underwater cities on planets they colonized.

There are talks that FDev can be bought out either by Sony or Microsoft. While I'd prefer Microsoft obviously as Xbox player, either choice gives a very serious danger that either Playstation or Xbox would get neglected.

Microsoft being more or less not so picky on exclusive games (I still don't get Starfield decision to be honest...), but Sony has been so notorious for the past ten years on pushing companies to give priority over THEIR consoles (the newest CODs) or neglect them entirely (Sekiro, Dark Souls III) so if Sony buys up Frontier... that would mean the possibility when Xbox players would no longer enjoy Elite: Dangerous.

I doubt we will have such luck. If Frontier is acquired it will probably end in Tencent and we all will be %$^&# up

The biggest issue with FDev getting bought out IMO is that 'honouring the lifetime upgrades from backers etc' will probably not be in the sales contract.

My concern would be that if FDev got bought out, the acquiring company might shut down ED and just focus on other FDev titles.
