EXO MECH: INTRODUCING UPDATE 2.4 PATCH NOTES

THE MINOTAUR

Added a new planetary Exocraft, the Minotaur Heavy Exosuit Hybrid.
Acquire the plans for the Minotaur Geobay at the Construction Research Station aboard the Space Anomaly.
The Minotaur allows exploration in even the most extreme environments, with a unique hazard protection upgrade that keeps the pilot safe from environmental damage.
The Minotaur comes with its own set of upgrades and technologies.
Blueprints are available to purchase from Iteration: Perses on the Space Anomaly.
Upgrade Modules can be found at the Exocraft Technology Merchant at your local Space Station.
Other specialist Minotaur abilities include the ability to upgrade its mining laser with Terrain Manipulation capabilities, and the ability to collect or harvest rare planetary resources such as Storm Crystals without leaving the safety of the cabin.

EXOCRAFT HAZARD CHANGES

Exocraft no-longer grant immunity to planetary hazards by default. External environmental conditions will now drain the player’s hazard protection, though at a reduced rate from on planet.
Specialist technologies have been made available at Iteration: Perses on the Space Anomaly that allow Exocraft to be upgraded to prevent environmental damage

NEW EXOCRAFT TECHNOLOGIES

Perses now also offers the Icarus Fuel System, an Exocraft upgrade that recharges the engine during daylight.
The Exocraft Scanner has been improved. Performing a standard scan will now reveal all nearby points of interest – i.e. all those that would be revealed by using the Analysis Visor.
Added an Orbital Exocraft Materialiser. This is a new freighter module that will allow all Exocraft to be summoned while the freighter is in-system.

EXOCRAFT QUALITY OF LIFE AND OTHER FIXES

Added new decal options to Exocraft customisation.
Exocraft cockpits now match the customisation of their exterior.
Improved the light cast by the headlights of all Exocraft.
Increased the base speed of the Roamer, Nomad and Pilgrim exocraft.
Tweaked a number of Exocraft cameras to improve visibility.
Increased the speed and acceleration of the Nautilon submarine, and tweaked its camera positioning.
Fixed an issue that caused the Exocraft fuel efficiency stat not to increase fuel efficiency.
Fixed an issue that caused the Exocraft speedometer to flash during a storm.
Fixed an issue that prevented items in the Exocraft inventory from being available for crafting.
Added a coordinates readout to the Exocraft HUD data.
Tweaked some early game rewards to give players access to an Exocraft earlier in a playthrough of the Artemis story.
Reduced the blueprint and construction cost of some Geobay blueprints.
Improved the Guide entry for Exocraft, including tweaking when it becomes unlocked and adding a mission to the Guide page to walk players through the Exocraft unlock and upgrading process.
Fixed an issue that caused the Exocraft mining laser to be ineffective when used on minable objects.
Fixed an issue that caused Exocraft to turn invisible when saving and charting at a waypoint.
Fixed an issue that caused the object health indicator to either appear in the wrong position or not appear at all when mining objects in an Exocraft.
Fixed a soft-lock that could occur when the Inventory auto-opens to the Exocraft page and no Exocraft is present in the system.
Fixed an issue that caused the position and icon of the network player marker to be wrong when the player is in an Exocraft.
Fixed an issue where Exocraft could sometimes fall through planetary terrain.
Fixed an issue where the Exocraft customisation camera could be incorrectly positioned when swapping between Exocraft types.
Fixed an issue where exiting an Exocraft could cause a fade to black transition if the ship camera was set to first person.

GRAPHICAL IMPROVEMENTS AND OPTIONS

GTAO: improved performance by avoiding oversampling on distant objects.
GTAO: modified attenuation heuristic to avoid over-darkening of thin objects, particularly noticeable on grass.
GTAO: modified reprojection filter to improve AO temporal stability. This reduces flickering on moving objects, particularly noticeable on grass.
3D rendering resolution can be now scaled as a factor of the window resolution. This means UI can render at a higher resolution to the 3D game view, offering more options for improving performance while keeping UI crisp. Additionally, the in-game resolution may be scaled larger than the actual screen resolution, allowing for greater image quality than possible when rendering at the monitor’s native resolution.

BASE BUILDING QUALITY OF LIFE

Added a new base part, the Electrical Cloaking Unit. This can be placed to hide power lines when outside of build mode.
Added the ability for console players not using VR to disable local base complexity limits (PC players could already adjust the Base Quality setting). This may come at a performance cost when viewing large, player-made, structures.
Added a Quick Menu option to immediately return to the Space Anomaly when visiting a featured base.
Fixed an issue that caused incorrect planet information to be displayed when previewing bases in a different galaxy.
Fixed an issue that could cause players to become stuck when warping to a featured base if the base computer had not loaded in time.
Fixed a number of soft locks that could occur when interacting with base parts that were outside the local complexity limit.

BUG FIXES

Fixed an issue that prevented AI ships from ever landing on player-owned landing pads.
Fixed an issue with the transition to a new galaxy that caused it to be entirely white.
Fixed an issue that prevented the Blaze Javelin from being cycled while cooling down.
Increased the distance at which damaged frigate icons are displayed on the ship HUD and compass.
Added a timeout sequence to the start of Nexus missions to discourage players from going AFK on board the Anomaly after readying up.
Extended the time during which weekend missions are active to 9AM GMT on Mondays.
Added some additional graphic warnings when low on hazard protection or life support.
Fixed an issue that caused diplomatic frigates to award units as a substance rather than directly.
Fixed an issue with the trails on certain Royal ships not lining up correctly with their engines.
Fixed a number of graphical glitches that could occur when warping in a starship.
Fixed a graphical issue that affected the Bytebeat envelope rendering on console.
Improved the readability of the currency readout when browsing tech trees.
Added a recovery fix for players who lost their Void Egg after they come back through the Portal at the end of the final Starbirth quest.
Fixed a rare crash in the lighting system.
Fixed an issue that caused the audio environment to be set incorrectly while on Atlas Stations.
Fixed an issue where Armoured Clams could be destroyed with the Terrain Manipulator.
Fixed an issue where Weekend Event missions could sometimes have partially encrypted descriptions at the Nexus.
Fixed an issue where player models could sometimes inherit their scale from ships or Exocraft.

Dan wacht ik maar op de PS5 in de hoop dat ik daar gewoon verder kan spelen.

Improved Combat, Deeper Space Exploration in Latest No Man’s Sky Desolation Update

Hello,

Last month we welcomed over a million new players into No Man’s Sky by virtue of Xbox Game Pass and the Windows 10 release. This, together with our cross-play update, meant that we are seeing some of our biggest ever in-game numbers, all playing together regardless of their gaming platform. It is genuinely humbling, nearly two years after first releasing on Xbox One, that there are still so many people interested in exploring our universe.

It is a journey which we are thoroughly enjoying, and our tiny team is still excited to bring new content to the game. The free updates we have already released this year, Living Ship, Exo Mech, and Crossplay, are part of our plan to regularly release new ways to play and new things to explore, and we are thrilled to see the community growing alongside the game.

In this vein, today we are releasing No Man’s Sky: Desolation. Our latest free update, it improves the combat experience and deepens the possibilities of space exploration.

Sprawling derelict freighters have been discovered in space, deserted by all but their half-deactivated the security systems and malfunction AI drones. These hazardous environments are fraught with danger, lit only by the faint glow of emergency lights. There are even rumours that some ships have become nests for strange and hostile creatures… Venturing into these vessels is not to be done lightly, and is best undertaken with a crew.

Like much of the No Man’s Sky universe, every freighter is procedurally generated. There are a countless array of interiors to explore, with procedurally generated stories from the crew and the possibility of extracting pieces of the freighter to refit as upgrades into your own capital ship.

On top of this, there are a whole raft of quality of life features and improvements, including customisation for your own freighter, as well as weapon and combat improvements.

As ever, the team has continued to work on more updates. We have several more significant releases planned for the year, and we’re excited to share them with the community when the time comes.

Our journey continues.

Wel tof, ontzettend respect dat ze de game gewoon blijven ontwikkelen. En die generated freighters klinken wel als goede content.

Maar nog steeds niet waar ik de game voor kocht en speelde ooit. Dus we wachten nog rustig af..

Uurtje gedaan gister. Ik ben wel voor even terug, planeten zijn daadwerkelijk cool (vraag is voor hoe lang). Onverwachte dingen, etc.

Zag gister een planeet, volgens de omschrijving zou hij vrij kleurrijk moeten zijn (Veriscident ofzoiets). Maar, hij zag er compleet grijs uit. Ik duik naar beneden, blijkt dat grijze gewoon een wolkendek te zijn over de gehele planeet, en zodra je beneden het wolkendek kwam, ook compleet mistig, je zag bijna niets. Landen kon, maar verder dan 2 meter zie je niet.

Was er dan ook zo weer weg, maar dat is wel de bizarheid van het universum wat ik graag zie.

No Man’s Sky: The Next Generation

PS5 version and upgrade announced, next-gen enhancements detailed.

Hello! This has been such a busy year for the small team behind No Man’s Sky. We have already put out five separate and sizable updates to the game. Our most recent update, Origins, has seen a large resurgence of travellers coming back into the game to witness first-hand the huge amount of new things there are to discover. As busy as this year has been though, we still have ‘one more thing’ to reveal.

Today we are thrilled to announce that a PlayStation 5 version of No Man’s Sky will be available at launch just a few weeks from now. Taking advantage of the next gen hardware, the PS5 version offers enhanced visuals, audio and more. Current No Man’s Sky players will receive this PS5 upgrade for free – and be able to transfer their save game between consoles – when they decide to continue to explore their universe on next gen.

Here is a closer look at just some of the features and upgrades that players can expect in the PS5 version of No Man’s Sky.

Haptic controls: From the satisfying feeling of firing your boltcaster, to the gentle nudge of a building part slotting into place in a space habitat or the firm click of the trigger in your interstellar ship – haptic controls allow players to feel immersed in an alien world as never before.
Fuller worlds: Next generation hardware allows No Man’s Sky’s procedural generation to create lusher, richer and more densely populated universes than ever before. Planet surfaces are even more detailed, with thousands more rocks, alien grasses, and exotic flora on screen at any time.
32 player multiplayer: For the first time on console, up to 32 players can join forces to build, survive, fight and explore the galaxy together.
Advanced audio: Immersion has always been a pillar of No Man’s Sky. Thanks to PlayStation 5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech, players will be able to soak in the ambience of an alien planet, or feel a ship fly overhead like never before (You can find out more about PS5’s 3D Audio here.)
4K* at 60FPS: On PlayStation 5 players can experience the universe in pin-sharp detail at higher framerates.
Ultra visuals: Explore alien vistas with improved shadows, greater draw distances, thousands more objects on screen and improved lighting and volumetric effects.
Vast base building: Players can now work together to build huge off-world colonies, with the ability to construct and render far more vast and complex bases on screen.
Warp-speed load times: Explore the universe instantly with 5-10x reduction in loading times. On PS5, you can warp from solar system to solar system in an instant.
Crossplay: PS5 explorers will be able to join together with other adventurers on all other platforms, including previous generations.
Upgrading from PS4 to PS5: Not only will previous owners of No Man’s Sky on PlayStation 4 be able to upgrade their game to PlayStation 5 at no extra cost when PS5 launches in their territory, but their progress can be carried across to their new console.
PlayStation VR: No Man’s Sky is fully playable in PS VR on PlayStation 5 by virtue of its backwards compatibility functionality.
An evolving game: Just another step on the evolution of the best-selling title, No Man’s Sky Next Generation will come preloaded with the previous four years of huge upgrades from day one. Join in the journey at our most important moment yet.

Our next generation journey begins. We hope you are excited to join us.

*4K compatible TV required.

Heerlijke game blijft dit voor wat verloren uurtjes . Ben nu de story quest lijn weer een beetje aan het doen, moet nu de basis uitbreiden en dan ga ik waarschijnlijk weer heel wat uren verliezen aan het vinden van de perfecte planeet voor de basis (maar die perfecte planeet bestaat niet).
