*** CLOSED BETA UPDATES & DISCUSSION/BUG REPORTS VI ***

V: Is it correct that i can only choose between basic ships, but not their variants(only Agile Flyer, but not Agile Flyer II,III and IV).

Also, if you click the previous button in the first ship select it will only cycle between the Agile Flyer and the Star Warrior, but will not let you choose the Honorbound.

-Yes, that is a bug fix in the queue, though I thought they had fixed it already. -Vesuvius

 

He said he was stepping away for awhile, so for the sake of getting you a quick answer:

Yes, that is correct, base model I only, not variants for starters

Known issue, you only see 2 if you cycle back, but can see all 3 if you cycle forward.

 

Banzai! (Asking for these things for awhile)

ETA? This week, next week? Planned to be done is good enough for now if you dont want to give an ETA, and I wouldn't blame you.

 

[BUG]
Updated with LP my chief medical officer to have Emergency Escape level 1.
Fought a few more battles, captain went to L2
Updated with LP my chief medical officer, the entire Emergency Escape line was dark, so I selected Advance Med Bays

It removed my point in emergency escape, and applied both to Advance Med Bays.

PS Should be "Advanced Med Bays" on the title, not "Advance Med" as currently listed.

 

Hit me, you know what I want.

 

Said the turn-bar thing twice

(on steam too)

Making it blue doesn't fix it

I suppose there could have been two different turn bar issues

Please add option to disable turn-notification sound.

 

Imo the screen is completely confusing and wrong.

You have a title of captured/defended systems and in the bar itself you have text with officer points - providing no cue of relation between the two.

You are displaying 'officer points' with other data related to specific officer, despite they are not.

It is completely unclear from the screen that officer points work as an unlock and for all officers.

The text under promote says 'for Next Level' - yet there is no other thing called 'levels' on screen, leaving a user again without a clue what the text refers to.

 

C'mon, haven't you ever wanted to just push buttons and find out what happens (red one, NAOW)? Half the fun is figuring things out

The descriptions are a bit lacking and the inner workings of earning credits, especially fractions from defense, but the system is quite simple to figure out. This trend holds true for a lot of the descriptors and game mechanics, but it's a pretty easy figure.

Nutshell {Timer/Cooldown + Officer Experience/Credit requirement per tier + XP = promote for rank up and 1 skill point -> Choose a skill}

 

That is understandable.

From your post, it seemed to me you were making suggestion for changes to developers and I thought that pushing it a bit more further with some small tweaks in text wording, or a bit of moving elements around, you could improve consistency and clarity of provided information greatly for very little effort.

 

I just tried to dock at spacestation Ghoda. But, for some reasons all docks were blocked by space debris for some reason. How is that even possible?

EDIT: It was Ghoda 1 I had no problem whatsoever to dock at Ghoda 2. Also it became apparent that actually some player blocked the station. Still, annoying to deal with.

 

People were flying and dying at the station on purpose.

You have the solution already though, just go to the inner sector and dock there

 

@Vesuvius_SWIE

Weapons are now animationg much faster and the sound is a little compressed. sounds weird. However, the same delay is still there because of the XP posts.

Get rid of that damn XP post delay!!!!

Movement seems to be much faster, but still same delay on waiting for shots/events to clear before allowing movement again.

Reduce the delay on being able to move after an action.

 

small but a bit annoying bug we noticed today: an AI ended its turn on a debris/meteorite hex and could not be attacked from anywhere, including adiacent hexes. it moved out next turn on its own tho.

 

Just tested the new changes and totally agree with Xeen. There is still allot of potential for speed improvement. There are huge delays after using your weapons to move again especially marine pods.

Tried to move then use 4 marine pods then move again and shoot 3 times with lasers all using shortcuts and i barely made it on time (60 sec). The 4 pods alone took like 20 seconds until the full animation finished plus the delay to let me move again.

Btw i don't mind the sound effects change. If i didn't read it first here i wouldn't even notice the slight difference.

Imo at this point do not increase the sector ship limit and do not reduce the 60 second timers because the animations/delays are still very time consuming.

 

Like I suggested before, it would be great if you could stop(add) the timer until the animation is finished.

Way easier to balance the pace of the game that way.
