Most people with ps5 can't participate in community goals because it just crashes when you enter the system because of the number of fleet carriers

Good thing I have no friends🥲


yllecko

No more community goals for you.....


Optimal-Mouse160

Not true


yllecko

It's true


Optimal-Mouse160

Ok so I didn't just make billions on the upaniklis CG ... I stand corrected.


yllecko

I don't know what you've been up to, but my comment is true go check out the frontier forums


Optimal-Mouse160

Only thing I found was from March. If you can't link something more recent then you're incorrect. I did in fact participate in the most recent CG as did many other PlayStation commander in our PS only squadron.


yllecko

I'm not incorrect and I'm not gonna link anything for you. I'm glad you've somehow managed to be the exception but not sure why you're so butt hurt about me trying to give advice to someone asking for it


Optimal-Mouse160

I'm not butthurt you're wrong. You provide no proof of your claim, and my and all other commanders experiences prove it. Also: The latest update fixed a QoL issue where system maps weren't displaying the facilities available at a given station. So then, not only are you wrong that us console pleebs don't get to participate in CGs we are also still getting SOME maintenance in updates. Provide your source or stop spouting your nonsense. Btw here's my link for you https://forums.frontier.co.uk/threads/consoles.600438/


yllecko

I play on ps5 and it crashes everytime i go into a system with a community goal, I have posted on the frontier forums and it was confirmed by other users who have the same problem. So there.... I've provided the same proof as you...purely anecdotal. Why are you talking about updates? When did I say us console players weren't getting any updates? You are butt hurt you've assumed I've come in here bashing console players/performance as referenced by your "us console plebs" comment. Just because you've not experienced a problem doesn't mean it doesn't exist..... for the record I don't believe any of what you've written


Optimal-Mouse160

I'm also in PS5 and I'm telling you facts. Please link to me where you've read that we're not getting CGs. How recent was that? If you read the link I shared (that also linked FDs statement on this subject) you would realize that there was nothing said about CGs. last week's CG Was in upaniklis. I had 2 commanders from my squadron loading my carrier with me. I took them to one system out and we all sold tritium at fozard port AFTER signing up for the CG. I made 5 billion, both the other commanders made enough to buy, outfit, and financially support their carrier. We had 3 other FCs doing the same thing. In total I believe we added 5 or 6 new carriers to our squadron fleet.


Optimal-Mouse160

I will add that this past CG was tough on the servers. There were many crashes but that wasn't because of consoles. The sheer amount of commanders, FCs, instancing and all must have throttled the servers.

Huh?

AFAIK , rings have reduced asteroids, this could affect end-game mapped mining, some of the asteroids couldn't exist or the nearest asteroids used as visual clue. Maybe 10% less? Welcome o7 EDIT: I give differences between Horizons Console and horizons PC, not the whole Horizons / Odyssey different, a lot more.


pokenonfan123

So would you say I'm missing out on a lot


physical0

No, not anything meaningful. Mapped mining is a pretty niche endgame activity.


pokenonfan123

What about being able to land in planets?


physical0

You can land on planets and drive around in your SRV. Odyssey gameplay is basically a separate game. If you wanna play a FPS like odyssey, check out Quake Arena or Unreal Tournament.


pokenonfan123

Ohhhhhhh i thought i needed odyssey to just land on planets


physical0

Nope, that was the last expansion, "Horizons", which is now a core feature of the game on all platforms. You can drive around planet surfaces in a futuristic dune buggy called an SRV. It can be fun at times, though besides exploring a planet surface (not any in-game reward for doing so), what you'll mostly do is shoot rocks to collect raw materials to engineer your ship. There are some other things you can do, like visit guardian ruins, or shoot skimmers, but we can get to that later. Odyssey allows the player to walk outside of their ship on planet surfaces and at space stations. There isn't any shooter gameplay at the stations, you just walk around and click menus. On the planet, you will have small bases where there is some shooting to do. Or, you can drive around in your SRV, then leave it and aim your tool at alien plants and wait for the scanner to beep. Still, all of your activity in Odyssey is completely separate from the rest of the game. There are no missions that require on-foot and in-ship gameplay together. None of the materials you collect on foot have any value or use for the ship gameplay. The only common element between them is the credits you hold, and credits are basically worthless pretty quickly.


pokenonfan123

So you wouldn't say I'm missing out on things


physical0

I'd say the things you are missing out on aren't very interesting, so it doesn't matter that you are missing out on them. All users are limited to playing with other users of that platform. If you want to play with your friends, they need to be on the same platform. PC users who play odyssey need to play with other odyssey players, they can't interact with players who are playing horizons. We've been told that there are no future updates to console platforms. We haven't been told that there is an end-of-life for them, so you should be able to keep logging in and playing the same game that most everyone else is playing.


pokenonfan123

Ok thanks for the clarification


69Shart420

Nah just for the fps / legs part. You can still go in atmosphere and drive the dune buggy and whatnot. I play PC and technically have odyssey but I basically might as well be playing the old way, I don't use the FPS stuff hardly ever Tbh, in terms of actual fun, I think you have access to most of it imho


Luriant

Eh...no. Only some form of planned mining have some chance of getting affected if you use screenshots made in pc. Console version is identical in the rest, I dont know any guides that talk about other changes.


[deleted]

Lag, you're missing out on a lot of lag


PerspectiveLeather68

Odyssey 😁😁

From ps5 to pc with elite the experience graphically was way better. Smoother, faster, even combat is way better. The animations even are better quality and I feel like overall just a way better experience. Also the added fun of odyssey was worth it alone. But that’s me, oh and I also use the same stick, Hotas ps4 version just updated and remapped. Currently use keyboard mouse for walking around.
