KurakilAs if 3% wasn't low enough already...

Would you be able to check if it is the same 2% in EDO because I am still flying in EDH? Thanks

You can only see that while at the engineer, right? I checked my right-side panel but I didn't see any % listed there. In which case either I am blind or I can check in a few days as I am currently occupied with other activities.

I still don't fully understand its mechanics. There's obviously more to it than just keeping the reticle centered on the target.

Is there a way to give feedback to something on things such as an item not being at a station that it's showing up to be? What if the prices are inaccurate? How can I do my part to hep others see more up-to-date information? I have created a profile on here and linked the game.

In my case I was comparing beams 3C gimball engineered to long range grade 5 and grade 2 with special effect oversized and when you try to replace them with regular ones - unengineered it shows that you are gonna lose 2% not 3% in damage per sec or gain if you do it other way around.

Updated to 4.0 client and now running at literally 30fps with everything on lowest. Even the hud looks like atari gfx and pixelated to where its unreadable.

On old client I can run about 90fps on ultra preset.

If you want to give feedback for this site
https://inara.cz/elite/board-thread/1/#newpost

However, keep in mind that this site works with players submitted data, so pay attention to last updated field. Something that seems inaccurate for you may just mean that the data submitted is few days/weeks/months old.

My condolences! It is as this for most of the players in last 16 months.

Do you want some help as how to make things a little bit better or you just share your experience.

If former, please give us basic information about your hardware. Cpu, GPU, Ram is enough.

But I need to clarify one thing:
You will never have the same performance as in 3.8 until Frontier development do not fix their mess.

horizons 4.0 never had to exist, doesn't make any sense, 3.8 and odysseyy had to be merged.

I am getting almost 240FPS while in space with 3.8 client in EDH. (ASUS B550-F, ADM 5900X, 32GB RAM 3600, MSI 3060TI gaming X) Though I won't recommend ASUS MOBO.

That is not correct. The plan was to move Horizons to the new engine and declare 3.8 dead. There is zero sense in keeping two code bases. This means double effort and gazillion issuees due integration between old and new code.

But then Frontier in their ultimate wisdom failed to deliver performance and used "technical demo" BS to try and use player base fragmentation as a leverage to boost DLC sales.

Maybe, but I think maintain 3.8 for lower pcs and odysseyy for medium high machines, the players not need that been excluded. I think 4.0 don't have solution on lower machines. 13 updates don't have fixed the performance and don't will do. Its only my opinion.

If 3.8 disappear, many players go out. Lowers pcs have the same final like consoles ¿?.

3.8 was announced officially in maintenance mode. You will see nothing new there.

If my potato laptop which is 3+ years old can do easily 60 fps in space it is good enough
