well it's all happening isn't it an elite dangerous at the moment no sooner if we
have the console transfer four commanders to migrate their profile from PlayStation or
Xbox to PC that Frontier have now said that the horizons and odyssey 4.0 launch will launch on
Thursday the 15th of September giving access to version 4 of the elite dangerous Galaxy
now as we mentioned before Horizons and odyssey currently exist as separate entities of the game
there's version 3.8 and version 4.0 which Odyssey is on the foundational code supports Odyssey is
all on version 4. and all that content and all the improvements added since the Odyssey launch is not
included in 3.8 so we're talking about things like better lighting better Planet generation
etc etc etc so great fantastic what are they trying to do well they want to get everything
back to one version as we've mentioned in the past running two versions of the game
you know it's double the overhead of um what they have to do to release story content and
we're all after this new content we want to see how this salvation and aftermath thing pans out
so Frontier quite openly stayed in one of their many releases on this subject that to allow as
many players as possible to experience the new narrative and gameplay elements they intend to
give all PC players and whilst they've enabled people to migrate from console to PC yesterday
and that's gone quite well I mean mine was done within two hours they intend to give all PC
players access to version 4 at no additional cost now of course you have to go out there and buy
Odyssey but you can still use Horizons if you don't want to or if your PC that you're
using won't run it but like I said in previous videos I've had it running on a seven-year-old
i7 and a 1050 and I think people have had it running on a 970. so you know it is possible
okay so where were we you'll still be able to launch Elite dangerous in version 3.8 if you
choose okay this option is expected to come in the following weeks they state but it's coming
tomorrow on the 15th of September 2022 and that's great but there are a few things that
you're going to be able to address and access and a few things that you won't and here they are
here's a breakdown once again of the features you can be able to access if you upgrade and
run to version 4 of Horizons so the updated Graphics especially Planet rendering across
both versions version 4 and obviously Odyssey all improvements of performance Graphics UI ux
Etc from post Odyssey updates planetary settlements are non-tenuous atmospheric
planets so all those thick atmospheric plants where you can walk around you're not going to be
able to access those on Horizons because that is a walkie around the Odyssey sort of thing you're
going to be able to access or player multi-crew now they've cleared this up only between players
on the same version so you can have multi-crew with someone on Horizons and you're on
Odyssey you have to all be on Horizons on version 4 to do that okay just to clear that little bit up
and here's a great one both Horizons version 4 players will be able to join Odyssey players in
a scorpion SRV that's the militarized SRV uh that is partnered up with the Scarab that we
all know and love two tons of cargo on this the um scorpion but it's got a massive big gun on the top
and also a rocket launcher and it's a two-seater you gotta love it okay next up you're not going to
be able to access station Concourse is awfully carrier Interiors once again that's not a sea
walkie aroundy bit as well as tenuous atmospheric Planet you're not going to be able to access that
right next up on foot gameplay that's an odyssey thing now if you have a good hunt around you'll
be able to find a cheap version of Odyssey somewhere no doubt on foot points of interest
not going to be able to access those and odyssey ranks because that's an
odyssey thing oh this sort of like sound self-explanatory and I don't mean to sound
condescending because I'm certainly not trying to be but like it's good they've spelled it out
and I wonder how many players now having made the migration on console to PC and got their
free version of Odyssey I'm gonna get Horizons 4.0 with all these new embellishments on it
I'll actually be waiting for payday saying I will be having a copy of elite dangerous
Odyssey my good man and if it runs it runs and if it doesn't well hmm
damn it but at least I'll have version four and I'll be able to witness the at the end of
the Azimuth Saga as that sort of pans out let me know in the comments if that's going to be
you be quite interesting to see I know a lot of commanders made the migration because there
was huge cues last night I've been Ricardo thanks for watching let's see what happens see you soon
