The gold pass on the Tali didn’t make it? Sad :(
I think that might be a mistake in patch notes actually. Can’t confirm right now but I think I’ve seen people mention it and the Firebird being in. That would makes sense since I don’t expect them to push another patch before ILW but, again, haven’t checked the game myself yet.
Gah, still can’t play. My setting keep resetting every time I customizemy controls. Using alt or Ctrl adds unrecognized characters that corrupt the config.
Cna’t really help but I’m curious about your process - are you trying to assign Alt or Ctrl from the in-game settings or directly in a saved profile?
Just in the in game keybinds menu. I just get those Unicode squares and a few symbols like there’s a missing font or unrecognized characters. I have a flight sick with limited buttons, so I used modifiers a lot just to get around. No biggie, anticipation is sexy, hopefully next patch.
I might be wrong since I never tried to bind those keys myself but I thought it’s not supported at the moment? Except for the default keybinds that is. I really hope they’ll do a full rework of the settings menu for 4.0, it’s about time we got something more useful in that regards.
And in another 2 decades we’ll make it out of beta
I think they might be hard pushing towards 1.0 now that S42 is “closing in” to release. Whether the version we’ll get with that will be something we want is another things as this approach will cause cuts and simplification of some of the features (only temporarily if we’re lucky). Besides, some speed up is to be expected now that more devs moved back to working on SC.
They seem to want some FPS features to be integrated in SC 1.0, so maybe you’re right since that sort of development is already done. But if it’s taken this long and we’re still considering this alpha, I don’t have very high hopes for a timely 1.0 release.
But now that I think about it, Rust blew up when it was in beta and I put hundreds of hours into it. Maybe getting out of beta isn’t necessarily what I’m waiting for.
I mean, good chunk of FPS features is already done for S42 and just needs to be ported. The beauty of CIG’s approach to development is that they can freely make up their own definition of 1.0 release and push it without most of the promised mechanics, let alone content.
What you’re waiting for honestly depends on what you’re interested in gameplay wise. If you’re into combat, 1.0 (or maybe even alpha 4.0) should have plenty of relatively fleshed out stuff to do. If you’re into more peaceful activities… I have less hope for some of them being finished by that point.
