hello it's ricardo and welcome back to elite dangerous update 13 is now with us and that's
fantastic and i thought i'd do a separate video that relates to elite dangerous horizons
as opposed to everyone just focusing on odyssey lots of improvements are going to be coming
to elite dangerous horizons as it moves from version 3.8 to version 4 of horizons will give
better parity between the two versions of the game frontier did explain this on a recent release so
what's been addressed so the update notes in relation specifically to elite dangerous
horizons are less should we say than what they are for horizons horizons is going to be the thing
going forwards and we'll have the more i think enriching game experience but for those who
still wish to remain on horizons you have your reasons um mostly around hardware i'd imagine
this is what's been fixed so elite dangerous horizon update 13 notes issues of notes that have
been addressed an issue has been fixed whereby attempting to play cqc does anyone still do that
would cause a crash an issue has been fixed whereby guardian sentinels were failing to
fire their missiles now i have noticed this in both versions of the game and it's great that
it's been addressed because i thought well is it me is my ship doing a really good job
of cueing it all down in regards to the point defense i thought god these point defenses
are really working well on this asp okay so looks like it was a problem and i missed it
in regards to audio they've fixed uh implemented fire sounds turning on and off at burning stations
great so you get that more visual experience when you're going in there to rescue someone
and they've fixed implemented to stop fire sounds from rapidly turning on and off at thyroid wrecks
so they fixed fire sounds turning on and off at burning stations brilliant and they fixed
fire sounds turning on and off from rapidly turning on and off i should say at thyroid rex
okay brilliant fantastic well done i think that's absolutely fantastic um in regards to
art improvements have been made to the type 9 hazard kit to stop some pieces protruding into
the cockpit well no one likes a little bit of scaffolding poking through their cockpit
misses they've implemented a fix to stop the hazard ship kit bumper for the cobra mark 3
doing exactly the same thing so that was two models really the type nine and the
cobra mark iii in regards to the hazard ship kit that you know what it was poking through
they fixed visual flickering on the python hazard ship kit and visual flickering on various
decals on the damaged empire capital ship okay improvements the anaconda ship model to represent
paint jobs that transferred over from odyssey made improvements to the further landship kit pieces to
prevent some paint job smearing okay so a little bit of smearing going on you know in regards to
you know all the customizations we can put onto our ships and adjustments of the python imperia
industrial ship kit as name plates were being obscured if you can see the name of your ship
what's the point i'd be more concerned about that crate and looking out the window of the crate and
look what happened you can't see anything i was trying to fight thyroids in one last
night i thought i'm taking this bumper off but then the headlights are so cool so why should
you they've made some improvements the imperial cutter debris so they work correctly as intended
improvements to imperial cutter debris so they work correctly as intended
have to go and blow up an imperial cutter okay in regards to the server they fix
players being able to request to join private groups and this is going to be the key thing
as players move to version 4 of elite dangerous horizons right you're going
to be able to join an instance with people in odyssey on pc apparently right apparently
okay we'll see if it works because normally when this sort of thing happens there's usually
a cataclysmic clash uh you even try getting on a ship and jumping into fdl and people are left
floating around in space without a ship or a ride to get home in regards the user interface
they've added better protection from malformed strings entered into the social menu search bar
brilliant um i can't say i've noticed that to be perfectly honest with you so in regards to the
elite dangerous horizon specific notes right they are quite minimal in regards to to everything else
there are some known issues however that um probably translate to both versions one of those
is the skimmer movement audio currently fails to sound this is bearing in mind that version 4
of odyssey and version 4 of elite dangerous horizons that's the same code base going forward
so i imagine these problems are going to be there as well nav lock is currently not working um
in odyssey but it does work in horizons so it's going to be interesting to see what the
what the difference if it's meant to be the same code base that's all i'm saying
um so they're also saying that community goal galaxy map icons fail to appear but that again
these might just be odyssey specific but if it's the same code base well then we have to see what's
going on um also okay frontier are great and i mentioned this in the elite dangerous odyssey
patch note video that i put out as well which might be worthwhile having a look at just to see
what's coming um features of note scenarios and features added to reflect the finale of
the azimuth saga game nothing further to add on these other than well see for yourself the time
is almost upon us and as mentioned i mean from a social media point of view it's been amazing
they've been saying they've been keeping people updated you've had your frame shift live
people have been streaming there's been drops this they're really going all out i just hope
it works fantastically for them it seems that an awful lot of work has been put in by frontier
and i hope the player base appreciates it now they haven't told me to say that this is just
me my rosy colored glasses on hoping everything goes well hoping everything goes well one thing
they haven't mentioned in here is the scorpion now elite dangerous horizons players are meant to be
getting the new srv the scorpion as well so why have they put that in are we gonna see even more
ground combat we're gonna have to wait and see as they say the time is nearly upon us let's see what
frontier has in store for us i've been ricardo thanks very much for watching this video on elite
dangerous horizons update 13 specific patch notes a little bit of chat as well it's nearly with
us let's hope everything goes according to plan thanks very much for watching i'll see you soon
