  Aww that sounded interesting

 

[Angelklaine]

Nice, now could you roll those updates into the real game? You know, the one people play in? Haven't had a single patch since November....

 

[Kurxen]

or what about patching bugs that are littered in the game? like disappearing ships or random stuff like lasers stop working, you know game braking stuff? just asking... for a friend.

(from Starbase Discord - #faction-lounge, 14.01.22):
KaiFB:
"I think we will get live patch with repair halls and qol stuff but not capitals for example"
User1:
"What leads you to believe that?"
KaiFB:
"because we are building such a patch"
User2:
"Is it going to include the laser magazine "fix" ? :X"
KaiFB
"i would certainly hope so. All the good stuff but not the big features that are incomplete is the goal last i heard"

Any idea when this will happen? An estimate? A guess? Not trying to be negative but an "I think" from a person with intimate knowledge of the operation is not exactly promising.

I am hopeful for changes and improvements... but I am pretty skeptical given the things FB has said in the past.

My best guess is (because its been stated again and again that they learned that deadlines is not their forte) that they will refrain from giving ETAs for things that might or might not encounter a delay.
He says it is in the works, and tying together features that techwise are already done is less demanding, only tedious because you need to be careful that you get everything ported.

What follows is only wishful thinking and not based on any sound reasoning:

Spoiler: Wishful Thinking

Personally I suspect they want to have it ready during the next week, before the rescheduled holiday event, and are tightlipped about it due to the possibility for delays.

I can see a few minor things hitting live, I'd love some new content on live (even bug ridden features) to play with though.
