Elite Dangerous CEO Apologizes For Ongoing Odyssey Launch Issues

ongoing issues. Since launch day, players have encountered various performance, connection, and bug-related problems which the team is currently working hard to fix.

“First and foremost, I would like to apologise wholeheartedly to those who have been suffering from these problems,” said Braben. “I would like to reassure you that we take these issues very seriously and that they are our top priority and focus.

Braben also said that they’re also investigating the reports of poor performance on rigs that should be able to run the game without a hitch. According to the CEO, he has been using both an old 2014 rig and a high spec dev machine to test the game and didn’t encounter any issues on his end.

“Some of our players are reporting poor performance on machines where we would expect the performance to be good, and others are saying it is fine. We are trying to get to the bottom of this,” he said.

A hotfix was released shortly after launch that addressed some of the more pressing issues. A second hotfix is due to come out “very soon” which will hopefully further improve game performance and stability and address more bugs and known issues.
