Upcoming Elite Dangerous patch will fix issues introduced in last major update

If you have been playing Elite Dangerous recently then you may have encountered a few bugs following the most recent update. ‘The Commanders' update began rolling out earlier this month and didn't get off to the best start, causing a simulation failure and throwing some systems out of balance. At the time, Frontier resorted to rolling back the game but a proper fix for bugs will be landing in ‘early May'.

Frontier has now detailed the Elite Dangerous update 2.3.01, which will fix most of the issues introduced with the 2.3 update.

Here are the key fixes but more may be piled on, so these patch notes aren't entirely complete:

  • Galaxy map UI tag not pointing to selected target body
  • Packhounds having infinite ammunition
  • Multicrew bug fixes
  • Various Stability improvements across the board
  • Missing Galnet articles will be fixed
  • Xbox main menu softlock will be fixed
  • Large frame rate drop when friends log in to the game

There will be an updated patch notes post in early May, when Frontier is ready to begin rolling it out. In the meantime, Elite Dangerous players will either have to wait or put up with the in-game issues for a bit longer.

KitGuru Says: I've not jumped into Elite Dangerous for a while so I don't have much first hand experience with these issues. Have any of you guys been playing recently? Have you run into many problems?

  1. Having massive mouse problems with the Commanders update, mouse movement is erratic, will not point to what you want it to point to on the menus, makes it almost unplayable, found other people with the same issues but not mention of it by Frontier at all which is disappointing. How can we fix this again the game is essentially unplayable with the mouse issues.

  2. You’re in a minority, I’m afraid.

These days alone, I generated close to $36,000 until now with no more than my home computer as well as some spare time, despite that i have a fulltime 9 to 5 job. Even everyone not used to this, can make $89/per h easily and the earnings can go even higher over time… This is how i started

  5. “you may have encountered a few bugs following the most recent update.”

    A few bugs? A few bugs???

    There are currently OVER ONE THOUSAND LIVE BUGS logged on this latest version of Elite Dangerous https://forums.frontier.co.uk/forumdisplay.php/105-PC-amp-Mac-Bug-Reports?prefixid=BRF_ED64_Commandor_G0 . Many of which were reported to Frontier weeks beforehand in the public beta test, which Frontier mostly ignored, releasing this bug-ridden update regardless. Lots of players who tried the new multi-crew feature have never been able to play since, because a bug in that feature locked them out of their game accounts.

    Gotta wonder how much Frontier’s PR dept pays you people for this whitewashing of the train wreck that is Elite Dangerous.

  6. I started out freelancing over web, through doing some elementary tasks which basically requisite a personal computer and consequently having access to broadband in addition to Now I am more happy than ever before… a few months get passed on since i began this and therefore i had residual income total of 36,000 dollars… Basically I generate 80 bucks each and every hour and work for three to four hrs many of the days.And awesome thing about this is exactly that you could keep control of precious time when you work and also for how long as you like but you still gain a take-home pay a week. —->>>LEARN Additional ABOUT IT here-> B1Z.ORG/38H
