Hello Roughnecks!

It’s finally time for our first major Post-Launch Update! The main dish is two brand-new mission types: Escort Duty and On-site Refining. Both mission types focus on heavy duty mining equipment that needs tender loving care and protection from a team of hard working dwarves! The side dish includes a ton of new cosmetics, further weapon balancing, a much-needed overhaul of the Assignment Board, and many other things. Bon appetit!

It’s time to get greasy! There has never been a better time to be a combat miner working for DRG. See you in the mines!

With Love,

The Ghost Ship Crew

P.S. We know many of our fans on Xbox/Microsoft-Store are also reading these patch notes, so a quick note on the Update 32 version on those platforms: The current plan is to submit it to certification tomorrow (Friday), and then ask for a quick pass through. But this might get hindered if we find blockers before tomorrow or if we have major issues with the Steam build. Fingers crossed!

- - - PATCH NOTES - - -

New Mission: On-Site Refining

Management has a new thirst: Liquid Morkite. They are sending you in alongside an On-Site Refinery to fill. Locate the Liquid Morkite wells and hook them up to orbital-insertion industrial Pumpjacks, connect them to the Refinery by building huge, winding pipelines, and pump those deposits dry! Oh, and the good people down in RnD even felt generous enough to build in a handy way to use the pipelines for quick, easy, and SAFE* traversal.

*Check the clause 3.15 of your contract to read more about the company’s definition of “safe”.

New Mission: Escort Duty

In this heavily combat-focused mission you are sent in to obtain a mysterious Ommoran Heartstone! Only the specially built autonomous Drilldozer can make it through the outer shell of the Ommoran and reveal the prize inside: The priceless Ommoran Heartstone. The Drilldozer will land at a safe distance, and then automatically home in on the Ommoran. Your job is to keep the dang thing safe and fueled as it digs its way towards the objective. Guard it with your life, Miners!

New Assignment: Roughnecks at Work

This new Assignment serves as a crash course in how to safely complete the new missions and make it back alive - and will reward you with some fancy new headwear on completion. What’s not to love?

New Cosmetics

Attention, fashion freaks! The new fall collection has just dropped with a beautiful selection of new Beards, Headwear, and Hairdos! 27 new Cosmetics have been added to the Shop, 11 new Cosmetics can be forged with Matrix Cores, and 1 new Headwear will be rewarded by completing the new assignment.

New DLC: Roughneck Pack

If you really want to rough it up, the new Roughneck Pack has you covered. Spice up your looks with four new sets of unique armor (one per class), new helmets, and new Paintjobs. This pack is squarely aimed at those that can’t be bothered dressing up as a space marine, and just want to get stuck into the hard work at hand! Finally, show off those figurative guns - as well as that choice selection of tattoos you’ve kept under wraps for so long!

On top of the Armors, the pack comes with two unique helmets, as well as a new Paintjob for Bosco and your Pickaxe.

Randomise Cosmetic in Wardrobe

Talking about fashion...if you are one of those persons who can’t decide which helmet to wear or how to style your beard or maybe you are just too afraid to try something new and daring, well….we got great news for you: The Wardrobe has been equipped with new Randomize buttons - Full Outfit as well per Category. Trying out new and unexpected combos has never been easier!

Assignment Board Visual Overhaul

DRG just invested in a better Assignment Board. Enjoy a fancy and more intuitive layout as you select your next assignment!

Throw Mechanic Changes

CONTROLS: When carrying gems and other heavy items you can now throw on both [LEFT AND RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON] on the mouse or [LEFT AND RIGHT TRIGGER] on controller. We made this change to accommodate the Fuel Canister (used in the Escort Duty mission) which is carried like a gem but also has functionality like a weapon or tool. In the future we could imagine having you find other tools and weapons that could be used in a similar way.

AUTO CANCEL THROW: If you do not release the throw button after reaching max throwing power the throw will auto-cancel after a short time.

New Assignment: Roughnecks at Work

This new Assignment serves as a crash course in how to safely complete the new missions and make it back alive - and will reward you with some fancy new headwear on completion. What’s not to love?

New Cosmetics

Attention, fashion freaks! The new fall collection has just dropped with a beautiful selection of new Beards, Headwear, and Hairdos! 27 new Cosmetics have been added to the Shop, 11 new Cosmetics can be forged with Matrix Cores, and 1 new Headwear will be rewarded by completing the new assignment.

New DLC: Roughneck Pack

If you really want to rough it up, the new Roughneck Pack has you covered. Spice up your looks with four new sets of unique armor (one per class), new helmets, and new Paintjobs. This pack is squarely aimed at those that can’t be bothered dressing up as a space marine, and just want to get stuck into the hard work at hand! Finally, show off those figurative guns - as well as that choice selection of tattoos you’ve kept under wraps for so long!

On top of the Armors, the pack comes with two unique helmets, as well as a new Paintjob for Bosco and your Pickaxe.

Randomise Cosmetic in Wardrobe

Talking about fashion...if you are one of those persons who can’t decide which helmet to wear or how to style your beard or maybe you are just too afraid to try something new and daring, well….we got great news for you: The Wardrobe has been equipped with new Randomize buttons - Full Outfit as well per Category. Trying out new and unexpected combos has never been easier!

Assignment Board Visual Overhaul

DRG just invested in a better Assignment Board. Enjoy a fancy and more intuitive layout as you select your next assignment!

Throw Mechanic Changes

CONTROLS: When carrying gems and other heavy items you can now throw on both [LEFT AND RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON] on the mouse or [LEFT AND RIGHT TRIGGER] on controller. We made this change to accommodate the Fuel Canister (used in the Escort Duty mission) which is carried like a gem but also has functionality like a weapon or tool. In the future we could imagine having you find other tools and weapons that could be used in a similar way.

AUTO CANCEL THROW: If you do not release the throw button after reaching max throwing power the throw will auto-cancel after a short time.

Also:

  • A whole bunch of weapon balance changes, which are too lengthy to put here.
  • New shouts! New mission-related stuff, but also more laser-pointer voicelines & salutes.
  • New milestones
  • One new achievement for each new mission type
  • Gunk Seeds & Ebonuts got lights
  • More cave generation variety
  • Drop Pod ramp now shows on terrain scanner
  • Bosco throws things to you, instead of dropping them like a pointy-eared leaf-lover!
  • Whole sh*t-ton of miscellaneous stuff!

Did you guys fix the bug with crossplay where the player drops constantly...? My brother plays on windows and I play on xbox and whoever isnt the host constantly drops from the game. The game is unplayable unfortunately. 😥😥😥😥😥😥

Should be fixed recently with the replacement of the framework.

Guess as an Xbox user me.and my friends have no choice but to wait. Haven't been looking forward to playing the new update for months now...

We're working on getting it out as fast as possible. If it runs smoothly, we're talking a couple of days, so fingers crossed.

When does this update drop for console or do we not know that yet?

Within a few days, hopefully.

Just interested, was that update really only 2MB?!?!?!

If you're on Windows Store or XBox that was probably a hot fix to 31.5

well it was just half of about a week ago so it just feels bad to miss it.

Not saying we’re in the next Steam sale, but we’ve been in a bunch of them before.
