2016-10-25 - 1.7 & 2.2 "The Guardians"

Elite Dangerous: The Guardians 2.2 update

Hi guys,

The time has finally arrived! Today sees both the Elite Dangerous Horizons (2.2) update and the Elite Dangerous (1.7) update making its way to the live game.

For those of you who haven't experienced a big milestone day, these updates can take several hours to install and make live.

The servers will be down from 10am BST (15 minutes) and will be down for an extended period of time (up to 8+ hours) Xbox One players will see that the download will be available from 11am to pre-install but the game won’t be playable until the servers are back up. The size of that download is 9.7gb which is a file increase of 1.8gb

We'll keep you updated with progress in this thread should there be any extra information. In the meantime we have a couple of exciting things going on today to keep you entertained while you wait for the updates to be added.

Join David Braben on a Reddit AMA from 10:00 - 12:00 BST. Followed by Ed Lewis and a series of developers from 1pm BST on our official YouTube channel.

The development team have been working incredibly hard over the recent months developing the game and working with our fantastic beta community to test, adjust and test again the upcoming version of the game so please give the beta community and the developers lots of thanks and support.

Weapons

  • Two changes aimed at rebalancing Thermal Shock and similar heat-imparting weapons:
  • Ships now gain resistance to heat weapons based on spare cooling capacity (when ships are cold they're more resistant).
  • Having a heatsink actively charging diverts most heat from external heat attacks straight into the heatsink, granting 90% resistance to these effects for those few seconds.
  • These two changes combine well, as now heatsinks are much more able to cut through even extreme heat attacks, and then the newly cold ship is temporarily more resistant. Simply running a cold ship will also extend the time before external heat is able to cause damage by a larger proportion.
  • Heat sink launchers now take substantially less damage from beaing overheated (down to a quarter of what it was), they are designed to be the defence against overheating after all.
  • Shield resistance to heat-imparting attacks increased, and active shield will now block 50% of the effect of thermal shock weapons, up from 25%.
  • Fix issues with mines and missiles sometimes failing to hit targets due to networking inconsistencies, most noticeable when driving into someone else mines at high speed
  • Fix issue weapons switching to Fire at Will on supercruise transitions
  • When modifying a weapon that fires in bursts, always ensure the clip size is rounded up to a multiple of the burst size. This will retroactively affect existing weapons and fixes cases of the Double Shot 3 slugshot having a 5 round clip
  • Fix custom VFX scaling for weapons (scaling was affecting the particles rather than the emitter
  • Mines should be affected by gravity
  • Mines now have vfx for default, dirt and ice surfaces
  • Point defence range has been increased slightly along with it's integrity
  • Blast radius for Deep Cut Payload and Penetrator Munitions is now correctly 75% of what it would be for an external blast, rather than 0.75m
  • Fix a bug where the penetration direction for a missile could be wrong depending on the exact detonation trigger
  • Set the Penetration chance for torpedoes and dumbfire missiles to 1. This is not used with their normal damage mode, but guarantees penetration when the damage mode is switched
  • Tweaked chance of burst laser malfunction when firing as it was observed to be too likely to happen given that each shot of the burst did the test, not each burst
  • Point defences will no longer try to shoot down a ships' own dumbfire missiles
  • ECM balance tweaks: guided missiles and torpedos hit by an ECM charge will now gain a major drunk effect if they did not already have it, causing them to veer off target most of the time. Technically you can still be struck, but previously ECM'ed torpedos would maintain an almost straight trajectory which for ships unable to dodge would mean they got hit anyway
  • Dedicated keybinding for ECM. CM do not have to be in a fire group, holding this down will charge the first ECM module on your ship that is ready to go, and releasing will fire it
  • Experimental balance change reworking how heat weapons function, similar to our earlier proposal but adjusted with player feedback. Aim of the changes:
  • Thermal diminishing returns cut in much harder, previously they would start at 60% and prevent you going over 190%, whereas they will now start at 65% and prevent you going over 95% (down from 80%/120% in our earlier proposal). This means that heat from external attacks alone can never cause module or hull damage
  • The heat effects of Thermal Shock are doubled
  • The heat effects of Thermal Cascade are 25% more than they are on live (the previous beta heat nerf is being reversed, and then a small buff), combined with a slight nerf to PackHounds to stop them being so superior to other missiles
  • The goal here is for heat not to be a primary damage mechanism, but be there to punish your target for doing things that generate heat spikes such as SCBs, boosting or firing the hotter weapons. We also want to make it so that it is never worthwhile to stack a lot of heat weapons together: You will get the new full effect from a smaller number of weapons than before, but it can never get anywhere near as deadly and stacking more weapons beyond that point is counterproductive
  • Drop the damage of packhound missiles slightly, from 9 per missile to 7.5. They're doing slightly more damage than we wanted given their relative immunity to point defences, and dwarfing normal missile launchers
  • Remove num pad 6 as a binding for chargECM, it's already in use for fighter order follow
  • Small usability improvement for Slugshot turrets, drop the range at which they will auto-acquire targets drastically (down to 500m rather than the weapon's maximum range of 2000m), to stop them wasting shots on things they'll never hit
  • Experimental Balance tweaks for Fixed vs Gimbal weapons with travel times. Overall we think larger changes are needed, but for now going with a safe option to avoid over-correcting and will review once these changes settle:
  • Projectile Speeds for fixed cannons increased by 20% (for S/M/L/H weapons this has gone from 750/800/875/1000 to 900/960/1050/1200)
  • Projectile Speeds for Plasma Accelerators (APA included) increased by 20% from 700 to 875
  • Damage for fixed multi-cannons adjusted so that the benefit for fixed over gimbals is much more consistent, and on average larger. Small fixed multis are reduced by 5%, Mediums are unchanged, large and huge increased by 11% and 14%
  • Damage for fixed cannons adjusted for similar consistency, small increased by 5%, medium/large/huge increased by 10%
  • Damage for Plasma Accelerators increased for a more consistent relationship with equivalent cannons, medium increased by 2%, large by 5%
  • Advanced Plasma Accelerator has also had its energy efficiency improved (7 per shot down to 5.5). It now has slightly better damage per capacitor power than a normal Large and deals more DPS, but at the cost of more heat
  • Reduction in damage to Reverberating Cascade was a bit much, especially when considered alongside much improved ECM. Returning this to 35% of raw damage punched through to shield generator.(originally 50%, previously reduced to 20%)
  • Balance tweaks to buff PDTs:
  • Missile health reduced for Small and Medium dumbfire and standard seeker. Now requires 2 point defence hits rather than 3 per missile
  • PDT jitter angle halved (from 1.5 degrees to 0.75 degrees).
  • Fixed where PDT shots would appear to vanish but would still have an effect at long range
  • Fix a reported bug with Containment missiles and their engineer equivalents, the 35 second immunity period was not working correctly for them
  • Minor balance tweak for Containment missiles have received a 20% damage reduction and 50% increased time between shots. FSD interrupt mod has gone from a 20→30% reduction and the same 50% increase in time between shots. Reducing their overall DPS so you're sacrificing a little more to use them
  • We think heat attacks have been reduced a little too far, and need a very conservative buff:
  • Diminishing returns for heat now limit at 100% (up from 95% in previous beta)
  • Damage penalty for Thermal shock reduced to 20% (from 25%)
  • ECM needs some slight tweaks:
  • ECM will now fire when hardpoints are not deployed
  • ECM charge time increased to 3 seconds (currently 2 in beta, 4 in live)
  • Hatch Breaker limpets are also having heir acceleration multiplier turned up significantly. For comparison firing at a target 1km away and with both ships matching speed the travel time has gone from roughly 10 seconds down to 5.5
  • Improved flight speed and hacking time of all hatch breaker limpets
  • Removed strange hatch malfunction behaviour where you could cancel it by toggling power. Hatch breaker limpets and general 'your hatch got damaged' hatch malfunctions can no longer be cancelled
  • Slight reduction to the effectiveness of Incendiary rounds for Multicannons:
  • Remove the hidden 20% kinetic damage that was left over
  • Reduce the fire rate penalty from -10% to -5%
  • Net effect is that the DPS has gone down by 4% vs shields and 15% vs hull (if unmodified), leaving the weapon strong but a slightly clearer tradeoff.
  • Hatch breakers can now be blown up by point defence.

Hyperspace

  • Arriving at a star now correctly leaves you in line with the source and destination systems, rather than the previous not-well-defined behaviour
