Hoping there would be some abandon mode fixes. Looks like mostly console and expedition fixes.

[Inofor]

Didn't see any fix for the black depth of field that came with the last big game update for amd 7000 series users. Are they having trouble with it?

EDIT: Huh, I just played for a while and didn't get the DoF bug. It used to be like: start game, talk to freighter captain, the darkness starts spreading almost immediately. Did it get stealth fixed? Or considering how Macs use AMD for graphics, maybe they put it under "Fixed a number of visual issues on Mac."

[Dramsss]

Thx

[frvind74]

So all the things we reported in experimental went to the trash?
I hope not.
If so, then "goodnight dreamers"!

Did the saloon music playing inside a player-base next to a settlement get "fixed" as well? I can't see it in the patch notes, but I found it to be a rather nice feature. I now miss having my chill tunes in my base.
Edit: never mind, I tabbed back into the game and it was playing again. Please don't fix this one! 🎶

most of the fixes are neither console nor expedition specific...
They were mostly fixes for issues in the main game... across all platforms.

It's to be expected that fixes for very specific hardware would come after more general issues are addressed...

[Darth Cervantes]

The saloon music is awesome, so is much of the other music in this game. I wish there was a way to cycle through it

[raving_madness]

do they ever sleep?

[Gambit]

I thought they were going MOD friendly, but MODS stopped working after updates. What's up with that?

[Insanely Twisted Grey Owl]

Another patch with no frame gen fix... FFS this is very annoying.

[onealone]

Thanks for the update and fixes.

[Chirico Cuvie]

"Fixed a number of visual issues with foam when in Photo Mode." oh yes

[Unzerbrechlich]

So, they did not fix the Rendezvous points being unlocked and not having access to the expedition galaxy route anymore.

[Okmo6p]

I'm stuck with a black screen when i start the game since this last update. Is it something i can correct before the next update ?

[raving_madness]

give verifying files a chance. updates for the gpu maybe? try start the game in admin mode once.
at least those are the things i would try
