Greetings, Commanders!

Our mid-month patch, Update 82.1, introduces updates designed to improve your experience with the Villains Part 1 arc and also introduces some improvements for the U.S.S. Vengeance. Here’s what’s new:

Gameplay Refinements

Ships

• U.S.S Discovery: Fixed an issue where players are not able to summon docked ships.

Aggregation

• Hostiles: Fixed an issue where the Aggregation Extractor and The Core’s Courier hostiles’ ability-related names and descriptions were missing from the in-game description.
• Aggregation Hostiles:  Fixed an issue where Aggregation Hostile ship portrait and abilities art fail to appear in-game. Also fixed an issue where decay damage on stabilizer side shows only damage needed to destroy ship, not total damage sent 
• Tokens:  Clarified an issue where, in Aggregation Smuggled Studies, the message for tokens appeared as “Get more from the Aggregation Refinery or from the Store” instead of “Get more from the Aggregation Refinery and in the Store.”

Systems

• Transogen Hazard Damage: The following Transogen Systems have been updated with the intended amount of hazard damage:
  • Oconel
  • Orkan Alpha
  • Laochra
  • Curadh
  • Krayn
  • Cliann
    
• Gusoeop: New Level 70 System added to Continuum Space.
  
• Manmoor/Gusoeop: Fixed an issue where the player’s ship failed to engage in combat with hostiles after reaching the target location.
  
• Manmoor/Gusoeop: Fixed an issue where the screen froze for a few seconds when exiting the systems for the first time.

UI

• Fixed an issue where numbers displayed with a blue background in multiple areas.

Wave Defense

• Solo Wave Defense: Fixed an issue where the Central Entity appeared as a black circular object.
• Solo Wave Defense: Improved performance, stability, and responsiveness to reduce lag, crashing, and freezing.

Station

U.S.S. Vengeance

• U.S.S. Vengeance Iso Damage vs Borg Cube – Increases the U.S.S. Vengeance’s Isolytic Damage vs Borg Cube.
  

Research Notes

• These new research nodes will be integrated into the Aggregation Research Tree and will not be locked behind the Recon Locus building level or by dependencies within the tree.
  
• Vengeance owners will receive a free claim gift of Research Dust (Aggregation Smuggled Studdies) for one node in the Aggregation Refinery.

Alliances

• Admirals can now add up to three labels to their alliance profile, communicating more clearly the alliance’s focus and playstyle to potential new members.

Live Long and Prosper,
