New Update Brings Optimization, Balance Changes, and Fleet Editor Overhaul
They have been working hard, following up on the Carriers Update with a new update focused on optimizations, balance adjustments, and fleet-building improvements.
Strike warfare balance has been adjusted, with nerfs to OSP weaponry—rockets are now heavier, slower, and costlier, while the R-1 Rocket’s damage distribution has changed to prevent unintended armor penetration. Dogfighting mechanics have also been tweaked, with improved AI for Tanto pilots and changes to gun ranges, giving defenders a better chance to counterattack. The “Guy35” Barracuda loadout has been removed to prevent a single build from dominating multiple roles.
The Fleet Editor now features a revamped warning system, grouping advisories into categories for clarity. New Player Tips have also been added, offering guidance on fleet design based on ship configurations.
On the technical side, network optimizations now allow dynamic objects like missiles and craft to operate more efficiently, reducing bandwidth consumption and improving performance.

In Case You Missed It – The Carriers Update Is Live!
The Carriers Update has brought fighters, bombers, and utility craft to NEBULOUS: Fleet Command, changing fleet dynamics with recon, torpedo strikes, and dogfights. This is the biggest update yet, going far beyond adding small spacecraft—it includes new carrier hulls, modular loadouts, expanded missile systems, and a total AI rewrite for smarter opponents and deeper tactical play.
New tutorials introduce carrier operations, and an additional skirmish mission lets players test their skills against the overhauled AI, which now employs advanced tactics and map awareness. The update also adds customizable spaceframe loadouts, enabling mid-battle role adjustments.
