Star Control Origins 1.0 Hot-Patch 1

from StarControl Forums

Hello,
Glad to hear that so many people are enjoying the game. We have a quick game balance update for you based on your feedback:

  • Nerfed the Scryve Cruiser that you encounter after helping the Tywom a bit
  • Planet class balance pass to discourage pointless landings. Worthless planets are now more obviously worthless to discourage new players from trying to pointlessly "grind".
  • Lander and ship cargo values increased to reduce the number of times the player has to return to the ship with their lander.
  • Increased the post-battle rewards

I should have waited.  I died like 15 times to that bastard Scryve Cruiser.  But it's ok, it set the tone for my hatred of the Scryve.

Wish you guys used the mineral scanner and mining instead of Mario World style resource collection.

Pshaw, is this pre patch compatible?

I restarted a new game this morning and I am not too far but I'd hate to restart again.

My game just crashed after my first battle with the Kvanti or whatever they are called. Dude ran into the outer edge of the arena to die and well....boom went the game. Disappointing.

Yes.  You do not need a new game for these changes.

These patch notes should be pushed into the update history on steam.  I had no idea there was a hotfix except someone mentioned it in passing on reddit.  Also, those changes sound great.  Thank you!

How is a worthless planet been made more worthless?  Fewer low value resources?
