Hey Everyone,
After several weeks of works, our large July update is here!
This update takes Stars End to a much more polished level when it comes to performance and bugs. We have reworked most of the core system, database structures and so on.
There are over 150 bugs and additions as part of this update, from small improvements to long term fixes that has been plaguing the game since EA launch.
You will also notice that the old outdated Prologue has been removed – it`s missions can still be accessed from Tigon Orbital station though.
We also have a new brief intro sequence and that`s also activated when you die - and have your clone drop to the planet in an escape pod.
Keep in mind that with update of this magnitude, we might have introduced some new issues, but these would be quick to fix, and we expect next update by Monday next week that will polish up this update with last fixed.
After this major update we are back to weekly and bi-weekly updates, with big projects out of the way, we can finally work on smaller fixed, balancing, polish and new content.
