Hello Pioneers!

As promised, the Experimental Build is now available to everyone who has purchased the game. It will show up as an extra library item additionally to the Satisfactory Early Access.

It includes some nifty features that we want you to try out and give us feedback on, such as the Conveyor Lifts and the new research chains Quartz and Sulphur.

Keep in mind that this version is more unstable than our other releases, so consider backing up any saves you want to try with it before loading them up in the Experimental build.

Hope you all enjoy the new features and fixes! Share your feedback and the bugs you are experiencing on the questions site:

Hello Pioneers!

Today’s patch is a tiny one as we are now focusing completely on the upcoming content update. If everything goes well this also means we will not push any more updates until then.

Just a reminder we are planning to release the content update at the end of April, as we stated on the roadmap. Additionally to the content updates it will also include smaller and less crucial bug fixes that were easier for us to do during regular development instead of hotfixes.

Reminder: If you have any suggestions or issues related to the game, go to our dedicated site to report them.

Hello Pioneers!

Alongside working on the April content update, we just pushed another small patch addressing load time bloat due to vehicle recordings and some of you not being able to save the game. To do the latter, we moved the save location out of ‘My Documents’. On start-up after the patch is downloaded you’ll have a backup of your saves in the old location and all your saves will be migrated to the new location. The new location is:

%localappdata%\FactoryGame\Saved\SaveGames\

BUG FIXES

• Fixed vehicle idle recording issues bloating load times and FPS

• Fixed some players not being able to save by moving the save location
