3.0 goes live tomorrow!

[Pug76]

Jumped it to the live thing today ,

Pro's
Average 25fps at Olisar
Doors work on the exits , so getting to my ship was a bonus
Ship launched fine
Flew to Daymar
Logged Out in Bed
Con's
Daymar FPS was a bit up an down like a whores knickers 4-24FPS
Exited the Game , re-entered the game back on fucking Olisar so had to reclaim my ship as it was on Daymar still
Both game exits got the verify / game crash from windows on exit

I can say it was smoother than the PTU by miles though .

Played for 20 minutes:
- Got attacked by an invincible (yet mostly stationary) Pirate Caterpillar;
- Took on a mission to retrieve a crate and the crate appeared to be in the middle of an asteroid, so I circled it for 5 minutes and couldn't get to it;
- My Aurora got stuck on "forward" and I couldn't stop it or land it, so I crashed into something and died.
3.0 is awesome.

I'm actually trying it out for the first time. Just in case.

I'll try it out this weekend for the first time! I'm excited! Is there a list of new ships available so I can see what I can now crash?

FYI, if you encounter weird problems, delete your USER folder. It's recommended in the patch notes, I rarely ever did before, but the last 2 PTU builds, and then with the Live release, I had all sorts of weird problems initially that were solved when I deleted my USER folder.

If you have any keybinding changes, make sure you copy your file someplace else so you can re-load it into your new USER folder.

I’m out of town... I can’t wait to come back home

Played a couple hours last night and it ran pretty smooth. A few fps issues but nothing terrible.

Only issues:
My X-55 goes to full throttle when I try to power off ship (Makes it hard to land)
Black screen on startup (Turned off GeForce experience fixed this)
Have to rebind my X-55. Hard to land when you can't strafe down

Overall I am very impressed.

I'll wait for a smoother version.

I get between 11-28 FPS. Finally just got on and played around a bit, here's my adventure:

Spawn in bed.
Climb out of bed with legs and body sinking into bed.
Spawn Nox Racer.
Crash Nox Racer.
Spawn Buccaneer.
Fly out into space.
Attempt to bring up Quantum Travel.
Flares activated.
Flares launched.
Eject.
Log out.

Overall I'd say I had a good time! I'll need to look at key bindings, but can't wait til it becomes a bit better on the frame rate so I can fly down to a planet.

I'm downloading the new launcher now, 90mb and it says it'll take 20 minutes.

Just did a speed check, 1.27mb/s and this 90mb download now predicts 25 minutes - Average speeds on my road indicate 17mb/s.

Someone is yankin' on my sack, yo.

EDIT - Update, have downloaded 2gb in 1 hour - thats practically light-speed considering it usually takes over night to download. If this keeps up i'll be ready to play by... b-by the time Santa is supposed to be dropping by...

So the question is do I stay up and go on Santas Naughty List or do I go to bed and play on Christmas Morning and go on my Wife-To-Be's naughty list?
