EDIT: Now version 114228 due to a hotfix.

Hi Pioneers!

Here it is, the long sought-after Update 3 out on Experimental! Before I tell you anything about it, you might want to check out the trailer we made for it. Or just jump straight into the patch notes, do whatever makes you happy! Also, a reminder that all your existing factories will have to be majorly refactored in this version of the game, due to the amount of changes we have made.

And now, let’s take a look at what we’ve got for you. We’ve joked a lot about Pipes ever since people started requesting them, but now they are finally in the game! And the changes they introduce to Satisfactory are s...

Do you know why the current experimental build is only 6 GiB in size, while the early access branch is 15 GiB on disk?

the 6gb is the download size of the difference between current experimental and new experimental. it doesnt redownload the entire game. game size should still be around the same or more.

Because that is a small sacrifice that I would gladly make for the greater good (making development faster and easier).

yes, in this case it would be bonkers for us to maintain full compatibility. that would take a lot of time assuming it would even be possible.

but in the general case i think maintaining compatibility is relatively straight forward and doesn't take so much time.

we are still writing it but its mostly done. but we will not release it until the update drops. some light reading while it downloads!

(actually it's massive)

It would be basically the same as experimental so I don't see any reason for it to not be compatible

it is not the same as current experimental, the update is huge. it will be likely that you can load your save game but your factory will not work and you will need to fix a bunch of stuff. so you may need to consider starting over. regardless: back up your saves!

Yeah this was as rude as you can get. Someone once told me that becoming wealthy changes a person. I suspect with as much cash Epic threw at them they've got a superiority complex so even acknowledging that they had a Steam community page at one time doersn't even phase them.

I (regretfully) bought this game on Epic, and now I truly hope the community never lets them forget for denying the possibility of a Steam release. There's no other franchise that would allow a community manager to act the way u/jaceatcoffeestain did. He's either very lucky to have that position or that company is so delusional they have no idea or simply dont care what he says in public. It's probably the Sweeney Money effect again.

/end rant

hi i told people that i trim my pubic hair well over a year before we were exclusive on epic. nothing has changed at coffee stain before or after the exclusive deal.

also i still have no idea what this steam thing is.
