Expedition 16 Cursed - Not Available for Mac yet?

[dark_knight]

I'm a long time NMS user playing on Mac and the new Cursed Expedition 16 update has not shown up yet today. Is it delayed for Mac Steam users?

Are you on the experimental branch? I was, and I switched back to the main branch and now all of my saves I've used in the last month say "incompatible version" because the Sept. 23 experimental update modified the save mechanics. At this point I'm not able to start the expedition in a new save and not able to play any of my existing saves.

[dark_knight]

That’s interesting but no, I’ve just been using a regular normal save and everything has been fine up till now. But it’s always worth checking everything out because I’m desperate to get going given how short this new expedition is. Thanks.

I am having the same problem. Cleared my download cache, restarted Steam, update downloaded but the Expedition terminal just tells me that Expedition 15 is over. No way to start the new one.

[Captain Sliverous]

I saw another thread where others were also waiting on the mac version to update and no mention of the beta, so that may not be relevant. I switched back to the beta branch and was able to access all my saves but no expedition. I switched back to the main branch, took the download, and still couldn't start a new save on the expedition. Hopefully they will address this soon.

Same problem here.
The expedition option is greyed out for a new save and says "coming soon" - the Nexus Terminal is empty and last time I looked there were previous expeditions listed and 15 was available but I wasn't interested in that one so didn't go beyond seeing it listed.
Now there's just nothing there.

[dark_knight]

Sorry this problem exists for others but glad to know I haven't lost my mind. Yes, hopefully this will be addressed soon. No time to waste on this one...

[NeckBeardYoMomma]

Out of interest - are any of you guys in Australia?
Wondering if it's a backwards timezone thing, there doesn't seem to be much talk about this online and can't help but conjecture how big the NMS Mac Aussie contingent is.

I'm in Vancouver (PST) time zone and no MacOS release yet, would love to hear from the dev team on what's happening. Probably tackling some ugly bugs

[LuckyCharmer]

I'm in Michigan (US) and I don't have the update yet either. Very sad.

Europe here, no Mac update or expedition yet, either.

[dark_knight]

I'm in Alberta, Canada playing Mac OS on Steam and the update JUST came in for me. Both the intro notes and at the terminal and quicksilver/rewards booth. Just now. So, I guess there's hope.

[LuckyCharmer]

Yep, I've got it finally!

[Bundok]

Europe here as well. I updated today, got the Cursed Expedition splash screen, but no expedition available at the terminal. Just thanks me for completing Aquarius. Downloading experimental to try that.

Worked for me last night on the normal branch.

I still don't have it. No matter what I do. I'm on the latest version of Sonoma. I've updated Steam and NMS repeatedly. I get the Cursed splash screen when I enter the game, but the Expedition is still greyed out and says 'Coming Soon'. When I try to start a game it says, "Connecting to Online Services" and never actually connects, although when I log into an old save, I show up on the Space Anomaly just fine, and see other players there.

I've verified files, I've tried to force further updates. I've checked to see if I accidentally switched to the Experimental branch (I didn't). I've checked my firewall. In short, I've done everything suggested in every remote thread on reddit or here, that I could find, and given the number of us experiencing this problem, I'm disappointed that its's been happening for more than one expedition without being addressed.

This happened to me with the last expedition I played, and is going to start affecting my reviews, if I can't actually participate. Especially given how little time you get to complete them.
