Buckle up for 2 brand new missions, detail changes (as usual) and a fancy item for those who want to use respawns in a strategical way: welcome to an item the Community has been asking for…read on for all game update details.
Update Changelog 2018-Oct-03
After last week’s release of Barnard’s Star, this week was mostly about smoothing the gameplay for that system. Many players are quite happy about it, but a couple of oversights were addressed. In particular, we released a hotfix for a Bank on Caen Stronghold, a Freebooter station, and a Gaule Protectorate embassy on the Barnard’s Star Jump gate. We also had an issue with many names in the “Areas” sidebar showing custom names and many players found this confusing, so we reverted back to standard names.
Thus, this changelog includes information about already seen changes from the hotfix along with new changes.
Status Report: September 2018
In September 2018, the completion of many tasks came to fruition with the release of our third system Barnard’s Star. Barnard’s Star brings 5 new stations, with new jobs, missions and even new local authorities to the game. A help icon now gives quick access to basic tips and several fan sites that share their knowledge with the Community. Furthermore, nearly 50 new 3D pictures add variety to the growing item pool. Aside from many detail changes like adding several confirmations and improved NPC vendor offers, all citizens who unite in a Syndicate have new features like a private forum, a new role for better management, a public profile page and more. Read on to see what was done recently!

On top to this huge universe extension, Syndicates get a couple of new things: you can check the basic member and storage history now, unlock a private “members-only” forum, use the notes function to inform your team, and more. More than 3 dozen of items received shiny new artwork. Read on to see all details of today’s new game version.
