Alpha Patch 2.5.0 has been released to the PTU, and is now available for players to test!

This patch provides access to our GrimHEX outlaw base, new clothing options, new automated landing technology and three new flyable ships – the Reliant KORE, Argo MPUV (Cargo Variant), and Argo MPUV (Passenger Variant). This is all in addition to bug fixes for the rest of our game and content. During this initial testing phase, PTU access will be restricted to a small group of players that we will expand on over time as required.

Your launcher should show “2.5.0-380707” as the client version. It is strongly recommended that players delete their USER folder for the PTU client after patching, particularly if you start encountering any odd character graphical issues or crash on loading. The USER folder can be found (in default installations) at C:\Program Files\Cloud Imperium Games\StarCitizen\Test.

Please review our current list of Patch 2.5.0 Known Issues (coming soon!), and take full advantage of our Issue Council area of the Community site to report any bugs you encounter, as well as contribute to other players submissions.

Important Issues:

• Do Not Spawn A Constellation and Retaliator. We are aware that GrimHEX has a few residual issues with gravity pockets, missing textures and a broken elevator. We are also aware of an issue with server-client desync taking place on both Crusader and Arena Commander.

Welcome Evocati!

New Features

Star Systems:

• Crusader

Crusader Industries would like to alert all pilots to avoid the Yela asteroid field. Pirates have become increasingly aggressive, and may attempt to lure pilots off course with fake requests for assistance. Crusader Industries believes they are based out of the decommissioned Green Imperial mining asteroid station, however attempts to locate the station have been difficult of late. Please report any suspicious activity, and consider any unidentified craft leaving the asteroid field extremely dangerous. GrimHEX asteroid station would like to cordially invite the Crusader Industries to QT into the nearest star. We’re open for business to everyone this goram economy left in the dust from here to Terra. You’re very welcome to visit and enjoy our fine goods, services and lodgings without the prying eyes of Big Crusader peeking under every door. Our bar, bounty office and race track are temporarily closed while we make some repairs from the last group of over-eager “heroes” that came through. GrimHEX can be located by navigating through the Yela asteroid field.

• Port Olisar

The LiveWire Weapons franchise in Port Olisar is currently suffering a shortage of energy weapons due to several recent attacks on cargo transports. While they apologize for the inconvenience, only ballistic weapons can be purchased at this location for the time being. Outlaw armor sets are available on GrimHEX exclusively, and can no longer be purchased at Garrity Defense.

Game Systems:

• Shopping

Skutters is a small weapon and armor shop on GrimHEX, that just so happens to be specializing in energy weapons for the discerning shopper… who does not ask where they were obtained from. KC Trending is a new location on GrimHEX station that offers a whole new selection of clothing for the discreet independent pilot. From shoes to hats, they’ve got the latest in underground fashion.

• New Landing System

The first phase of our new landing system has been implemented into the game. This is the first part of a much larger series of changes we will be working on over the next few releases to provide a simpler, more intuitive landing experience. The landing pad targeting has been temporarily removed while other moving parts are being developed and integrated. Instead of selecting a pad and requesting permission, players in automatic landing will proceed to the nearest available landing pad. When they are within 20m, and speed is under 35m/s, the landing gear will automatically extend while the thrusters dampen your speed. When a ship approaches within 5m of a landing pad, in either automatic or manual landing mode, the local Landing Control System will take control of the ship and ease it into a smooth landing. Landing gears can now also be manually deployed by tapping the “N” key on the keyboard. Holding “N” will now activate automatic landing should you be within range of an acceptable landing pad and have the proper gears deployed. Please note, this system will change over time as further improvements and features are brought online.

• Item System 2.0

We have begun converting player and ship items to our new item system. As with the prior, similar updates to ship components, this is largely at the back-end level. Implementing new component class systems, naming conventions and other needed functionality, as well as retrofitting all existing armors and weapons to be compatible. These changes will allow us to implement greater modularity to first-person items. Additionally, this will allow items to interact with one another in a more direct and less “handwavium” simulation, setting the foundation for greater player interaction and future game play mechanics. This should not affect the function of any in-game items, and changes to player item stats should be minimal.

• Player Health System 2.0

We have implemented the first phase of our new player health system! This includes the implementation of better individual limb damage and health, more granular damage states, and many back end improvements to support a better FPS combat experience and future features like permanent health. Player health dolls should now show Normal (Green) health when between 100%-60%, a Hurt (Yellow) state from 59%-40% health, a Damaged (Red) state from 39%-10%, and the Ruined (Dark Red) state at 9%-0%. With this, we have also implemented some early versions of injury penalties. This includes a speed reduction for wounded legs, as well as a limping animation. Overall health damage (particularly head wounds) can also cause blurred vision around the edge of the screen, which will increase in intensity as more damage is taken.

• Wanted Level System Update

Players with outlaw wanted level who enter Crusader will spawn in GrimHEX. This also applies to outlaw players who die and respawn in Crusader. Players with outlaw wanted levels will no longer have Port Olisar as a QT option, and instead will see GrimHEX.

• Ships: The Reliant KORE, Argo MPUV (Cargo Variant), and Argo MPUV (Passenger Variant) are all now flight ready! Reliant KORE is available in both Arena Commander and Crusader. The Argo MPUV is only available in Crusader at this time, as it does not have weapons to defend itself in the Arena Commander simulation. A new size 5 laser cannon, the M7A, has been introduced!

Updates and Fixes

• Crusader

Fixed an issue where shadows around Port Olisar would flicker at certain angles and perspectives.

Updated and simplified the Quantum Travel marker names for better readability.

• shopping

Fixed an issue where inspecting weapons would cause the users outfit to switch into the standard flight suit regardless of what they were currently wearing.

• Social Module

Name-tags for players in Augmented Reality now appear at 25 meters.

The M3A, M4A, and MVSA laser cannons have had their time-to-overheat lowered, so that heat now has a more meaningful gameplay impact on the weapon now.

Fixed issues where the missile smoke trail effects could not be seen unless the missile is very close to the viewer.

Individual Ships

• Aurora

Fixed an issue where the engine thruster exhaust effects was displaying circular blurs instead of proper visuals.

The missile racks for the Constellation Andromeda can no longer be edited by Port Mod.

The side missile racks on the Constellation Andromeda should now target and fire properly.

First Person:

First-person camera views have received significant attention to provide a much more stable and smooth viewing experience for players.

Fixed an issue where the 3rd person Free Cam could not zoom in or out. Ship target HUD now dynamically changes colors based on the allegiance of the target.

Keybindings

Fixed an issue where changes to the Graphics Quality in the options menu did not actually change the quality of graphics. Added a keybind mapping for X52 Pro HOTAS.

Technical:

Fixed a number of client crashes. Fixed a number of server crashes. Fixed a client disconnection (Code 1) that would sometimes occur when loading into Arena Commander. Added a new error (10002) for players who are disconnected due to duplicate login. This can be due to the account already being logged in on another computer or client. This can also happen after a crash or force-close of the game, when the prior connection has not timed out yet. Optimizations

Fixed an issue with Area 18, ArcCorp, where there were severe FPS drops when looking at the center of the level. Fixed an issue where switching between 1st and 3rd camera view would briefly drop the client frames per second down to 5.

Das klingt ja super 

 

Wer ist denn diese elitäre Testergruppe Evodingsbums? Kommt man da irgendwie rein oder entscheidet das CIG?

[Seebo]

TEXXXXTTTTTTT, ich warte auf die Übersetzung, verstehe wieder nur die Hälfte ..

 

Trotzdem ICH FREI MIEEEEE

Neues Kleinschiffchen flugfähig! Wird Zeit, mal wieder reinzusehen!

Für die Evocati Gruppe kann man sich leider nicht anmelden. Die Entscheidung, wer daran teilnehmen darf, kommt von CIG. Hier wurden Tester ausgewählt, die in den vergangenen PTU´s sehr hilfreich waren. So ein PTU Test kostet CIG viel Geld und obwohl es zur Bug Suche gedacht ist, laden sich die meisten Backer das nur runter, um den neuen Kontent zu sehen. Richtig hilfreiche Beiträge kamen aber nur von sehr wenigen Testern und diese Backer hat man nun in die Evocati Gruppe geholt. Hier muss dann eine NDA ausgefüllt werden, denn man bekommt dort auch viele Sachen zu sehen und zu höhren, die noch nicht für die Öffendlichkeit gedacht sind. Sogar SQ42 soll vorher von der Gruppe getestet werden.

Wird kein Schiff Hangar Ready? hab auf die Herald oder Caterpillar gehofft.

Caterpillar dauert noch ca. 3 Monate wurde gesagt.

Herald kommt früher. Ohne die  Mechanik dazu finde ich die aber sinnlos zu spielen. Die soll wohl sehr schnell und wendig sein und für Rennen geeignet sein.

 

[ArminPlugin]

Ich finde die verlieren da zu viel Zeit bei, die sind doch schon monate an dem Schiff tätig, und es fehlen noch so viele Schiffe.

Sind halt zu wenig Schiffdesigner dran. Sie meisten arbeiten an den Schiffen für SQ42 und sind die da fertig, geht es auch mit unseren Schiffen schneller voran. Würde die Priorität auf den Schiffen liegen, würden wir in einem Jahr immernoch eine ICC Mission nach der anderen um Crushader herum erledigen, aber mit ner Menge an Schiffen..... grausam

[T-Rocc]

Uuuiiiiiiii, freue mich auf den Patch. Brauche auch 'ne deutsche Übersetzung der Patch Notes. verstehe auch nur die hälfte.

[White Wolf]

Bin gespannt...

[KaffeRausch]

Nach den Passagierschiff Infos könnte man meinen die Genesis kommt auch zu 2.5, aber das ist wohl eher Wunschdenken.

 

PS. die 1080 soll 100€ günstiger werden am August, kann man ja überlegen die neue Piratenstation mit besserer Grafik zu genießen ^^

Ihr habt selbst ein neues Video auf Youtube über die Passagierschiff Mechaniken mit neuen Bildern wie der Getränkeautomat.

Aber dass spielt wohl erst Später eine Rolle.

Nur so nebenbei...

 

Nur weil Crash sie kürzlich übersetzt hat heißt das nicht das die Passagierschiff Infos neu sind. Die Infos zu Personentransport wurden von CIG gleichzeitig mit dem Sale der Genesis Starliner raus gebracht. Das war am 27July 2015.

Ich an deiner Stelle würde mir die Infos auf Reddit rein ziehen, die sind aktueller.

Bin einfach von den Infos zu den Mechaniken nach 2.5 begeistert...

Vielen Dank für die Info, Marcel.
