Hi Pioneers!

We’re still working on fixing plenty of other things with the Engine Upgrade, but if there is anything that you think needs to be fixed or want to tell us about the improvements you’ve gotten from the update please let us know at our QA site https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ We read your comments every day.

Hi Pioneers!

Thank you all for your feedback so far, we have been reading your posts over at our QA site, https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ We are aware of some of the issues you are having and we are already working on fixing a lot of them.

We also noticed that a lot of you seem to be experiencing crashes when launching the game or when loading a save, we are investigating those issues but, in the meantime, you can verify your game files and try updating or removing all mods, as they might not be currently compatible with our current engine upgrade in the experimental version.

To verify your game files on Steam:

Right click the game > Properties > Verify integrity of game files…

Hi Pioneers!

Hello everybody! I know a lot of you were waiting for this so let’s get started.

Today we’re releasing the 4.25 Unreal Engine upgrade for Satisfactory to Experimental. With this come a lot of cool new optimisations and lots of other stuff under the hood, but it might introduce a lot of unexpected bugs. So, we’re launching this on Experimental first so we can fix these issues before we release this to everyone in our Early Access version.

What can you expect from the engine upgrade? We have made a lot of optimisation changes both to the game in general and multiplayer specifically: Players and enemies should feel less choppy and more responsive as a result from all the network, general bandwidth, and engine optimisations.

The way the eye adaption algorithm worked has also changed, so the game might be a little bit darker or brighter in some places. We have a temporary fix for this which should cover most situations and ha...

Hi Pioneers!

Hi Pioneers!

Today’s patch has a decent mix of stuff, we’re mainly addressing a crash for clients related to the wire hologram which appeared after we introduced the ability to Upgrade Power Lines into the FICSMAS Power Lights variant and vice versa, it should now be fixed™.

We also now have a FPS caps options so your GPU no longer tries to take off in main menu and the FOV going much lower alongside the options we previously introduced should help ultrawide monitor users get much more comfortable configs.

As always, if you’re experiencing some issues with the latest updates please let us know over at https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ so we can fix them as soon as we can.

We’re glad you’re enjoying the game and we thank you all fo...

Hi Pioneers!

We’ve seen the distress caused by the Lizard Doggos not being quite as cheerful as always so we got a patch to address that immediately.

There might be some other fixes listed below but nothing is quite as important as that.

Merry FICS*MAS!

• Fixed Lizard Doggos moving erratically
• Vehicles can now go through FICS*MAS gifts
• Cosmetic and Audio related FICS*MAS fixes

Hi Pioneers!

Here we go, the Conveyor Belt networking rework is now live on Early Access. But, as you probably have already noticed, that is not the only thing changing today. We added some seasonal event content for you to explore December through January!

While we could not push a big update before the end of this year, we still wanted to give you something new over the holidays. So, we spent a little bit of time on this FICSIT themed event. What exactly we have changed and added you will have to find for yourself over the course of December, but we really hope you all will enjoy it! And if you don’t, you can simply turn the event off in the gameplay options from the main menu. Some of this content will be available from the get-go, while other things can be unlocked over time through a combination of the new FICS⁕MAS MAM Tree and the FICS⁕MAS Calendar next to the HUB Terminal.

There is some additional stuff in this patch that we added pre...

Hi Pioneers!

Hi Pioneers!

It is time for the Fluids Update to hit Experimental. Since the contents are largely new buildings, we should maybe have called it the Pipes Update (Again), but it’s the little Fluids Update now. Much of the content has been teased and confirmed, but let’s go through the new stuff one more time!

One of the most impactful changes is an upgrade to the Fluids System that allows for Mk.2 Pipelines that carry up to 600 cubic meters of fluids per minute. We’re looking forward to seeing your more compact (or even bigger?!) setups using the new Pipeline.

In the spirit of upgrading some features, we also added the Pipeline Pump Mk.2 with superior head lift and new in-world feedback that indicates where to put Pumps on Pipelines for optimal head lift distribution.

We also added two other highly requested features related to Fluids in Satisfactory: The Packager, a small and energy efficient building which will replace the Refinery ...

Hi Pioneers!

The EOS SDK upgrade from our last Experimental patch seems to be stable (any issues with connecting that you might have experienced were related to the EOS servers not our code update) and we’ve fixed the disappearance of the Korean font.

That means we are pushing this update live to Early Access and Experimental now!

If you’re having issues during startup connecting online in the game, you can check the status on Epic Online Services here: https://status.epicgames.com/

Friendly reminder that you do not need to connect to Epic Online Services if you intend to play single player.

To do so add the launch argument -NoMultiplayer t...

Hi Pioneers!

It’s been a little while since you’ve seen an update to Satisfactory, and this one is just a very minor patch.

We’ve updated all translations in the game to the latest version. We are aiming to update the games localization more frequently in the future. The Korean font is currently broken, but we are already looking at fixing this issue. Before that is done this version will not be moving to Early Access.

Additionally, we've upgraded to the latest version of the EOS SDK. This shouldn’t have any major impact on players, however, due to potential bugs it will spend some time on Experimental before we move it to Early Access.

We are currently busy working on some fluid related additions to the game that should be coming your way by November and we are also working on Update 4 which will be released in 2021.

To stay up to date with what is happening on Satisfactory, consider following us on social media and checking...

Hi Pioneers!

We’ve got another tiny patch coming out, this one largely addresses translations. For all of you new to Satisfactory, the translations are a work in progress which means changes are incremental and improvements are being released regularly.

Hope you all are having a wonderful time and are enjoying the game <3

LOCALISATION

• Updated all languages with the latest translations

BUG FIXES

• Small stability fix for an edge case related to Steam presence
• Fixed a bug where old translations were displayed instead of the latest version
