Hey fellow space explorers! Exciting times ahead as we dive into the latest patch notes for Astroneer, specifically update 1.32.17! The devs have been listening to our feedback (yay!), and it looks like they’ve rolled up their sleeves to tackle some bugs with the Glitchwalkers DLC. Let’s break down what’s in store!
What’s New?
This patch is all about smoothing out the experience on Aeoluz and addressing issues that have popped up since the launch of Glitchwalkers. It’s super cool to see how developers are taking player feedback seriously, keep it coming, folks!
Adjustments:
- The Level 1 Alpha Storm Protection has been extended, thank you, devs! This should help new players get a better grip on those tricky mechanics when they first land on Aeoluz.
- A big win here: storm fog has been reduced by 25%! Visibility during storms was definitely a pain point, so this change will make exploring way less nerve-wracking.
- The missing lore in Cyber Canyon? No more! It’s finally added at the “crossroads.” Lore lovers rejoice!
Bugs Squashed:
- [AS-21881] Xbox players couldn’t access Aeoluz after purchasing the Deluxe Bundle? Not anymore!
- [AS-21875] Crashes before landing? Bye, Felicia!
- [AS-21877] Vault Scanners pointing the wrong way? Fixed!
- [AS-21878] Endgame audio cues acting up? Now they work like a charm.
- [AS-21883] Typos matter! “The the” is now just “the.” 🤣
- [AS-21856] Duplicate store items check was running too much, that’s sorted out now.
- Crashed games be gone! More stability incoming.
What’s Next?
The team isn’t stopping here, they’re planning another patch before year-end and an exciting update slated for February 2024! Here are some juicy tidbits from their roadmap:
- Dedicated Server Support?! Yes please!
- Custom Games Support means we can tailor our own adventures, so hype about that one!
- No specifics yet on balance changes or additional rewards, but they’re definitely coming. Fingers crossed for awesome surprises!
I love that Custom Game support will let us dive into fresh saves without those pesky progression gates holding us back on Aeoluz. Can’t wait to see how that shakes things up in gameplay dynamics!
This past year has seen great player numbers rivaling peak times post-launch, showcasing just how many new Astroneers are joining our ranks, it’s heartwarming to see such a vibrant community thriving together. The devs already hinted that 2025 will be even bigger for Astroneer… stay tuned for more news as it drops!
