MiseriWhat did you mean by Open doesnt have High-res screen shots is that for real or just joking:?


No.

1. Go in Solo and press alt+F10 then in Open/Private group and do the same.
2. Go to your screenshot folder and check the highres screenshot

pssst
It does work in PG...
...works just as intended when flying alone in the instance...
..might be a bit borked, when other players are present, but the game will try at least

The hi-res screenshot function is somewhat broken anyway. Sometimes the camera moves while rendering, so the tiles don't align properly.

Recently I've been using a different method: I set supersampling to max (x2.0) before taking a normal screenshot. This way you get a result that looks like a hi-res screenshot that's been scaled down, i.e. the anti-aliasing looks quite good. There are no alignment problems, and it's also easier to take a rapid sequence of shots.

The only downside is that you have to go to options to change the supersampling. The game should do this on the fly every time I press F10.

Yeah, noticed that... And that started with Odyssey, of course. 3.8 Horizons high-res pics were totally okay, and Odyssey tends to screw things up, especially if your hardware can't keep up with the maximum possible framerate. However, if you have somewhere around 40+ FPS, you still can spam Alt+F10 and 30-50% of your screenies will be okay. Totally unusable on 30 or lower, tried on an old potato laptop.

So long with that peace thingy with cat-piss. R.I.P Kingfisher.

I guess I will head to get some guardian weapon blueprints for that Salvation engineered weapons.

Wow, that didn't take long! So the anomaly ate the ship? Or pulled it into witch space or something?

get your rescure ships ready I think that we will be picking up survivors while defending from Goids...

Well it seem like we did try a little attempt at peace, but it seems it is "not peace in our time!"

The FSS readings in Taranis are fancy. Five or six anomalies on the way to that system.

I'm really getting curious about the upcoming changes to the galaxy. Thargoids soon everywhere in the bubble? Thargoids that interdict and attack random ships? Thargoids that melt all Guardian modules like in HIP 22460?

And most importantly, will cardboard ships still be able to survive in solo? This could become a real game changer.

Maybe the peaceful galaxy we know will remain only in legacy mode. Maybe the live game will become much more hostile and action-packed.

Guardian module melting would be harsh, without this technology we have nothing against them. Human AX weapons are joke Not to mention that this will erase all past effort to unlock them and so on. At best it will be getting something like a CG or campaign to develop ways to protect them.

Survivability of cardboard ships will probably not change unless access to engineered ship is given to new accounts in noobs' district.

That most likely means on-foot weapons.

In a recent livestream FDev said they will introduce new AX weapons to make it easier to get started with AX combat, but they also said those won't be as good as the Guardian stuff.

My alt is currently in the noobs' district. I'll keep it there to see if u14 changes anything about it. But I doubt there will be any Thargoids in there.

Imagine starting a new game as a Thargoid, in a Thargoid ship, in a Thargoid nooby district, and then playing it like that.
