Patch 2.12 for Cyberpunk 2077 and Phantom Liberty is being rolled out on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S. It focuses on main issues experienced by players after Patch 2.11, such as key bindings....
I decided to start a new save and forgo the new expedition feature in the Anomaly. I feel like part of the fun is starting from scratch and finding shortcuts to get units, complete milestones, etc. Plus I often play my expedition saves even after the expedition is over....
I finished today as well. Overall, I thought it was fine. It’s clear it was meant to show new players different parts of the game. I was actually glad it was so succinct without much grinding. Almost everything you need was within the confines of the expedition, either as a reward or available somewhere along the path.
While I always like the cosmetic rewards, it annoys me that the colors and textures never quite match the existing customizations. I wish they would go back and make everything a little more consistent.
I often keep playing my expedition saves and get them into an end-game state. I haven’t decided if I will this time.
It looks like the expedition is finally over since the last optional milestone was reached; however when I go to collect the rewards and officially end the expedition, the game locks up. My character just stands there and the controls have no effect. Hopefully they get that fixed soon.
Unfortunately I think there’s a decent chance this will be the last major update or Expedition as they shift their focus to Light No Fire. I hope that’s not the case.
I know what you mean. I think as Twitter started to implode, Mastodon and other platforms were a little more prepared to pick up the slack. I don’t think Lemmy was as mature when Reddit started having issues so adoption wasn’t as strong as it could’ve been. I still have hope that Lemmy continues to grow.
I was really active in NMSCE and NMSGE on Reddit but honestly I haven’t been playing NMS as much lately. I’ll start up again with the new Expedition.
Yeah I assume they will start focusing on Light No Fire more.
It would be smart if they made an effort to migrate the NMS fan base over to LNF. Like give you exclusives in LNF if NMS is also installed or something like that.
I’ve been playing NMS for a long time so I’m no stranger to updates destroying my bases, but I’m used to it happening during major updates. This came out of no where....
I have been playing NMS via GOG off and on since release day. I completed the first expedition and then have not played another one until the most recent three, which I did on my PS5, and the most recent one I did also on Mac via Steam. I have been looking forward to playing older expeditions I missed in years prior, plus being...
If I had to speculate, I think there could be a couple things at play…
They have been focusing on bug fixes and stability lately as seen in the experimental branches on Steam instead of new features. They added support for MacOS and iPadOS earlier this year, which I’m sure complicates ongoing development.
There have been many game releases lately that may have pulled people away from NMS, like Starfield, Baldur’s Gate 3, Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty, etc. It may not be worth it for them to invest resources in re-running the expeditions if people are currently focused elsewhere.
Personally, I am on a NMS hiatus until the next expedition or major update.
You have to push out an update to re-issue the expedition(s) on a shortened timeframe. While the development cost itself may be minimal, there’s still a cost associated with doing the release on various platforms.
I assume expeditions cause a spike in usage. Since this is a multiplayer game, it has to be hosted somewhere and that isn’t free, especially when traffic increases.
Both of these may be very low cost but it still may not be worth it for them to do it. They continue to release new content for free, which is great, except it’s also not a sustainable business model. They probably have to keep it as lean as possible.
