"Maybe I need to press the button....harder!" Lol. I'd be lying through my teeth if I said I've never felt the urge to do this. The game has a way of bringing this out of any sane person.

[@CecilIsANerd]

I chuckled at that too LOL...

[@dial2616]

Pressing a button *longer* does often work. If the game is lagging your PC hard enough to make your OS thread lag too, it's possible for HID polling to start missing inputs unless they persist long enough to be detected.

[@friggenbozo4495]

it worked

[@quarkedupphoton236]

I do a double tap.

[@PatrickFisker]

Having a tester like you is important for the game and getting These bugs in the light Can hopefully help CIG

[@enchman69]

its important so they can see exploits and fix that immediately, but game breaking bugs? nahhh thats not a problem till sales start dipping

[@MathiasBronnes]

i love how at the bottom it says good luck cpt_foxyloxy XD

[@RN1441]

I appreciate foxyloxy so much that when CIG advertises on his videos I click them twice. I never buy anything, but like the padded out patch notes that pretend a bunch of still broken stuff was fixed, I want to artificially inflate the metrics for someone I like.

[@DABOYDJEM1]

That's CIG way of saying " F U Salt E Karen's "

[@Animal_Alpha]

The friendly fire from your own auto turrets is amazing. What a feature! Thanks for all your testing time and doing CIGs QA job for them.

[@gametouchcontroller730]

Maybe he's why they fired all the QA staff lol

[@RN1441]

@@gametouchcontroller730 Even if their QA department were all stars their developers just don't seem to be able to fix many of the fundamental problems or add things without breaking a bunch of existing stuff. If their developers aren't bothering with regression testing, and aren't actually fixing the bugs they say they're fixing it explains why they fired the QA department and have instead resorting to merging and hiding 'fixed' bugs that are still reproducible to this day.

[@dredknot636]

1:22 man that old quantum system needs to go already.

[@Persuasion94]

Wow, so many of the bug fixes not so fixed... I really hope they start priorizing the bugs this year cause it's starting to feel like there is a hot dumpster fire that can't be contained behind all this.

[@diminios]

For the QT jump at 01:16 - I found it worked for me if I either let the quantum drive fully charge _before_ I turned the ship to face a QT marker and start calibrating, or (if it failed), I turned the ship away so the jump became uncalibrated, and then back to the marker. With these methods, 50% of the time they work all the time.

[@MrSlvr2000]

Thanks foxy - the amount of bugs that say fixed and aren't even close blows my mind.

[@ohyeah2816]

I’ve decided to take a break until Wednesday. Thanks for the update.

[@223branbran]

Foxy your doing the lords work.

[@Animusical216]

Max respect to you for taking the time to test all this.

[@VinePest]

Amazing work!

[@BenitKolburn]

Cpt_Foxyloxy you are the best testing machine I ever seen. o7

[@lukep7885]

With the quantum failing to start a jump I've had a lot of success cycling nav modes. You don't need to let it spool, just recalibrate. Cycling once works like 90 percent of the time for me. And by cycling nav modes I just mean the middle mouse button. Not going in and out of nav/scm

[@0zakaxel]

Thank you for all the hard work! really!

[@l00neyville]

Thank you for your service Captain Foxyloxy 🙂

[@Medi0cr3-]

Whew. Good luck Cpt_Foxyloxy! - Funny add by the dev

yess finaly Rattlers FIX!!!!!!!!

[@silverkcat]

This guy is amazing.

[@hydralisk2000]

I’m still dropping out of quantum crossing authority zones. Still getting the no-go quantum markers. I’ve found that the old solution of veering off and re-acquiring the quantum markers doesn’t work but sometimes cycling nav mode does.

[@sanctred]

lol foxy exploring the desolate run down outpost in the crime over run system of pyro… “it reminds me of Italy”

[@edson7582]

When you are having trouble jumping, try pressing v to activate scanner mode and then v again to deactivate it. This will cause the calibration to restart and after trying a few times the ship will jump (not always). Instead of turning off the ship, restart the quantum drive from the panel and if it doesn't work, try again. Most of the time I can jump using these steps 07

[@BernhardMarchhart]

Fixed - MISC Starlancer - PU - The Starboard external elevator control panel loses interaction when it's lowered (STARC-138755) NOT Fixed and the back elevator still says Tresspassing. Good job DK

[@luistigerfox]

for now I have found that a workaround for that particular jump bug is to reassign one power pip then jump, doesn't matter where the pip is assigned or unassigned from. One day I would love to see that issue fixed properly.

[@mh.9908]

I hope youre getting enough sleep, thanks for testing 😉

[@cszulu2000]

There were two of us spawning in health care after dying .

[@JLNjedi]

I want G force fixed, when flying the Guardian QI I always blackout. I had to turn on the G safe when flying to cut down on half the blackouts.

[@yamatomao9554]

Hi Captain! Could you please check if one bug is fixed? It's the ATLS suit bug, so when you get inside of it there is a 50/50 chance of dying. I hope it'll get fixed with 4.0.1 patch 'cause ATLS suit is pretty helpful with C2 Hercules.

[@qutatron]

Thank's for usefull video.

[@consertoousucata]

[@cszulu2000]

Planets , ships, elevators and hangers .... Last night I fell through . Also had my own ship owned disappear while 1km off the ground zero speed, looking for a place to land, I fell 1km and died. Buddy watched and laughed, video confirmed no missles or hits from anyone. The ship disappeared. I grabbed a ship on the ground and it disappeared as well.

[@jerryk.1889]

LOL. My wife overheard the video and quipped that the people doing actual work [at CIG] should just leave and start over.

[@realdeal485]

*Polaris bugs*... After docking at a port or refueling from starfarer bed logging not allowed, says still in landing area in deep space.. Med beds do not show text saying where you are to regenerate.. You have to guess and verify on the terminal next to med bed.. no sperm suits spawns after death in med area like all the other ships spawn a suit and helmet.. cannot set regen at terminal next to med beds.. Have to lay in bed to set regen..

[@Royaltea_Citizen]

Sad about the power management in part 1, hopefully they implement that before going Live.

[@briananderson4032]

Best content

[@teggert-g5f]

CIG should probably pause everything that isn't shipbuilding first and really test everything and refactor or reprogram it if necessary. They fixed so many bugs quickly and dirty that it's now causing more problems. And the problems aren't getting any less. Actually, the > 100 bug fixes should be an indication of problems.

[@xBloodXGusherx]

Lol the ending.

[@dredknot636]

Bloom is still messed up as well, fell through it again as well as QT'd straight through it

[@tallll70]

the issue with quantum was fixing for me by turning it off and on, moving away and coming back to it use to help like year ago or more but not recently

[@BlindedByEvil]

Ahh you found where I have fallen through the planet, good find, i am sure you have reported that bug?

[@sjoer]

They don't even have any fleshlights at those outposts!

[@DubStepTomatoFarmer]

Ayo I’m running the same monitor as you 😄

[@messybestie-d7i]

How do the POI markers on Bloom look in 4.0.1? That planet has a lot of clouds and white snowy areas, especially in the south. There are also a couple of locations that are so close together that the markets overlap each other if you're not completely zoomed in?

[@Merlin-]

[@YamGarage]

Elite dangerous is rather good theese days. Been fighting thargoids waiting on cig to make this playable.

[@Solar546]

That problem with Quantum Jump is really annoying

[@IsraelSocial]

The pyro v bug was so annoying because i had a lot of loot, and my ship was disable because of the not obstructed message

[@boxofcannons600]

When going to QT and it doesn’t want to go. I find it best to switch back to SCM then back to Nav mode quickly.

[@jenss.302]

Thx for your testing the bugs. I don’t a find the test of the Starlifter or didn’t test it. Idk Can you say the bouncing stopped in when the cargo bay is open?

[@jenss.302]

Ok, i see it in Part 3 / Many thanks for testing this all :)

[@quarkedupphoton236]

I've always had boxes clip out of my Vanguard and Freelancer while flying around or in QT. Usually about 66% fall out from CRU to HUR. Been like that since 3.22-ish. I wonder if thats been addressed. Seems if u can still fall thru the planet its a nope.

[@N-GON-3D]

the C1 Spirit has a ticking sound in the cockpit, its annoying as hell

[@BlackFisssh_]

Devs discovering new bugs must be feeling tired :p Good luck if you're reading this guys!

[@arakis2188]

Ground vehicles also continue to jump on the spot, and tracked vehicles smash the floor of the ship to you

[@SlxwedAICovers]

How do you load one ship inside another? I call the small ship, park it near the pad, then call the bigger ship, but the small ship disappears, no matter how far it is from the hangar lowering down zone.

[@TTrevolverheldTT]

1:27 I have this problem every time i play the game. I thought that its just "normal" at this point

[@Max_Cony]

it is not normal, and since most people consider it normal, there is no issue council report for this same as for planet surface clipping (not falling), and random names inside screen hud elements

[@slyguy752]

Could you please gain some attention to the really annoying tap sound in the cockpit of the Corsair. Thank you.

[@grinny-play6734]

The salvaging mission is fixed for Pyro as well ? When you claim a xenotreath mission for 200k on Pyro V, it is not showing up.

CIG's server meshing is a hot mess that needs 11 more years of development.

[@pupusaslordking5617]

I noticed when i cant qt i just put the marker out of my sight for a second and then re aim at it and it usually works after the second or third time lol

you should make a list, and by each thing CIG said was fixed " NOT FIXED" Post on Spectrum

that sounds been there since the updates they added that bug. wish we had the old Devs. they were the best. dont buy ships it rewards bad behavior .

[@TheZoepers]

power pips are not staying on either.

[@cicio7777]

So, is 4.0 stable enough to justify jumping in yet? I dont care if all bugs are fixed, just the major game breaking account breaking bugs to be fixed Have any new patches hit the 4.0 "live" preview yet?

[@cabal2k]

Klescher ist still bugged, you can skip this if you haven't checked already :D

[@Ari91]

Sound bug should be marten damage

[@Gubers]

I'm not one to bitch and whine about an alpha ultra early access glorified test access 'game', like so many others that don't seem to get that. But as backers that are vested into the development of the game, it would be nice to get some additional transparency with these kinds of issues and bugs that have plagued the game for so long now. QT not engaging is one of those minor annoyances in-game that isn't too big of a deal. But if they're going to fix bugs, why are they fixing all these obscure one's before the one's that EVERYONE experiences? It's just that, you know, it only makes sense. I get that there's an assload of work to be done still and the complexity and scope of this game is immense and unprecedented. And that it's an Alpha and we are essentially "Alpha testers". But the funding model literally demands some level of playability. It's only logical for CIG to keep the backers that are playing through this development process as happy as possible because they are the source of income for this project. It is understandable if some of these bugs are buried in a way that it simply cannot be done at this time, or the code is all being replaced so there's just no point to fix broken things in that area. But we should get an explanation. I mean, everyone experiences the same elevator, desync doors, QT, mission malfunctions, "server error please wait..." etc. THOSE are the bugs that we should have a clear acknowledgement of, and timeline for fixing. I'm not saying they need to fix all the things immediately, they just need to communicate what the deal is. Like, front and center on Spectrum so every single backer can easily find it. We may not be entitled to a full release bug-free game, but we are entitled to clear communication as we are all vested in the development via our pledges. So, why the hell do we have all these bugs for so damn long!? Whatever the honest answer is, I'm fine with that. But we should have some idea about why they aren't prioritizing the bugs that hurt playability for the most amount of people before obscure stuff barely anyone even knows about.

@@mndeg If you go to the insider gaming website and look at their article from 17 October they talk about the heavy waves of layoffs which included the Austin (QA) office. There was a follow up article on 28 November where they clarified "At the time of writing, several sources said the layoffs have mainly affected the studio’s QA department and that the number of those laid off isn’t as large as initially made out to be, with one source estimating around a dozen currently affected (around 1% of its total workforce)."
