Probably a 0.7.X balance patch first.

The game was completed 8 years ago and we get a free expansion every year.

Arranging holidays in an embrace with the Starsector is priceless.

10 euros we are going to see an "update on the update of the update" thread in the next few months.

Yeah Alex, you should just come here each few weeks and post something like this: yep, still alive and working. <3 peace.

And, well, I think I'll just sit and wait, pretty much satisfied by what is just a pre alpha... which already sucked up more hours per euros than any other game I ever bought. Funny story.

Alex typically releases a big update, sees how people like it/abuse the new mechanics, then releases a bugfix/balance patch a month later. The only real exceptions to this release schedule are if something really game-breaking somehow pops up and he needs to send out some emergency patch. This isn't set in stone or anything, it's just what has happened with prior releases.

He posted yesterday (something tech support related) so I assume he's still actively working on the game. I'm not worried!

This is certainly going to be one of the most impressive and large scale updates the game has seen since the launch of the Campaign, that much I can say.

Yeah I have long since lost faith in this game ever getting completed, it's more now watching in awe people try to believe that anything tangible will come of it.
