I read something about them wanting to release during hours they knew Valve staff would be awake and around but that could just be Uncle Nintendo level poo poo.

I still don't have an exact time, but I will reiterate that it will definitely not be at midnight UTC. In fact I'm pretty confident that it will not be before 14:00 UTC either, because trying to releasing anything before the guys at Steam have had breakfast would make them very grumpy! Remember to make the relevant timezone calculations when you work out what this means for you.

So did they send out review copies to any media other than the streamers? Should we be expecting reviews soon or in a week?

NPCs apparently build ships now. No infinite ships?

This was a thing in Rebirth too, shipyards would build ships. Alas the economy often stalled because of this but I think with the increased number of stations and inter-system trade in 4, this should be harder to completely lock up the game with.

Cohh is having problems with docks being out of resources though.

It literally just unlocked I don't think anyone's even downloaded it yet.

Quick note: they haven't put player owned shipyards in yet though the UI is there and they're planning on adding them post-release. So if you can't find any build modules for your stations, that'd be why.

Watching Cohh's stream makes it look a lot prettier than ObsidianAnt's game. Given he was running with a 980ti this does not bode well for Club 970.

OA threw the graphics down to Medium because he was having streaming issues, a 970 should be ok.

I wouldn't worry. At 2160x1440 with Adaptive Vsync on, SSAO off and FXAA turned up to Medium, all other "High" settings left alone, I'm getting 45-60 FPS walking around station. Space seems to be 60+, at least in the starting sector for the Argon guy.

Edit: At 1920x1080, full High settings with FXAA "High"(off by default) is running 60+. CLUB 970 IS FINE. In case this is a CPU-locked sort of thing, I have a Ryzen 5 1600 veeery slightly overclocked. Still turning SSAO off, though.

What does this mean? Building stations is still in thought right?

Just finished install, time to head to work :cripes:

It also looks woefully underexplained and quite a bit janky. Which I guess is par for the course for an X game, but I'll hold off until more people figure out what works and what doesn't.

Janky is a gameplay feature for an X game. :colbert:
