Announcements / Re: Starsector 0.8a (In Development) Patch Notes

« on: April 15, 2017, 05:16:45 AM »

I don't think I've ever anticipated any game release as much as I'm anticipating this upcoming starsector patch.

I'm checking the twitter on a almost hourly basis. Seriously, the hype is immense. Exploration, planet interaction, new REDACTED faction and ships and weapons, UI and QoL improvements across the board. It feels like this update is on par with the release of the campaign map.

@PCCL well, for one thing, it won't be aliens if I recall correctly. Alex said there wouldn't be any. So I guess DoM's experiments gone wrong.

Skynet confirmed.

Great blog post, was fun reading through it. A little roleplay adds that extra spark especially with the use of the *redacted* censorship.

I've been hyped since August last year and I don't think I can get any more hyped about this release.

Who needs a brothel when you can visit this thread for a good time.

Changelog looks fantastic. Really, really looking forward it.

Just when I thought I couldn't get any more wet, Alex keeps posting.

This is going to be a beast of a update.

2) Later-game challenge, but that's all I'll say here because spoilers

Now that's just cruel.

Blog posts are the best posts. I'm really looking forward to the update, seems like this one is going to be massive.

The procedural systems are not, generally speaking, "controlled" by established factions. They mostly contain ruins to explore, dangers to brave, and rewards to reap. The civilized portion of the Sector has been largely reduced to the core worlds.

Does this mean that trading and missions will be largely be in the centre of the map, the core worlds, or will there be enough stuff generated outside of it?

General Discussion / Re: Tri-tachyon Corporation Ships

Tri-Tachyon does not use high-tech exclusively like they did in the 0.5x days.

I kind of miss those days. Each faction felt entirely unique, as intended. I know that it fits the lore that every group use whatever ship they can get their hands on due to autofactories and such but it makes everyone feel so bland. Where's the fun fighting TT when Diktat has the exact same ships? Where's the fun joining a high-tech faction and expect cool lasers and blasters only to see the market is filled with low-or midtech ships?

It's the same with pirates. They don't have any ships unique to their group, they only use standard lowtech ships that you find all over the place couple with a few D variants. Fits the setting that Alex set up, yes, but also boring.

I'm not too concerned about potential balance issues since things can always be tweaked, and I have nothing against this rework. Always fun with new things.

What I am worried about however is the perfomance. If you get several carriers, each with several fighters, perfomance is going to drop like a brick.

Each time you make a new blog post it's like a early christmas.

I'm hyped as hell for the update.

Four years.

And the Buffalo Mk2 is still the worst ship in the game.

After visiting a dozen planets, the only place that gives them in my game seems to be Freeport. Then again, I never visited any Hegemony or Diktat worlds, only modded factions and Tri Tachyon.

Speaking of Tachyon, is it possible to tweak their stations to only sell their ships? I get kind of bummed each time I go to one of their station and only 3 out of 10 ships they sell are actually part of their faction.

You mean IBB bounties? You take those via missions from certain factions. They aren't posted in the event system.

Wait, what? They are? I remember them being part of the normal bounty system. Must have been changed then.

Either way, I'll take a look and see if any of them are posted. I was getting curious as to why they never popped up like before.

I haven't found a single special bounty so far, but I presume it's because it hasn't been properly updated yet to 0.7.2? I'm using Nexerelin as well.
