So have there been regular patches , and have they fixed many of the issues ?

Also how quickly is content supposed to be added

I bought in day 1 , noticed it was still very alpha stage so decided to give it a few good patches to improve

It's gotten quite a bit less janky for me, I can even play on 200 ping servers normally now. Also poo poo gets randomly stuck less, though relogs are still fairly frequent when moving from ship airlock to base airlock.

The new content for now is better and more consistent control settings. They seem to be getting out about 1 patch per week.

The game is still clearly in EA, the basics are fun but it lacks variety currently.
theres only 1 gun. and several modules lack their purposes. (haventh found assault railgun ammo yet)
hangar module doesnt have ship that can land inside it yet.
you cant haul cargo container modules because those can only dock at hangar module.
theres no mining ships in the game yet. but its fairly easy to just steal ships instead. Especially now that you can spawn in stations without losing your starting base.
Ship combat aint in the game yet either.
same with station damage.
And navigation is still something dev's are unhappy with and are looking to remake in the future.

Even with all of that I find the basics fun, I just hope that dev's can turn it into finished product.
