Star Citizen - Alpha-Version 1.3 online, alle Änderungen

Am Wochenende wurde die Alpha-Version 1.3 für Star Citizen veröffentlicht. Das Update war bereits zur CitizenCon 2015 angekündigt worden und bringt neben Fehlerbehebungen auch ein paar neue Features.

Star Citizen ist jetzt in der Alpha-Version 1.3 spielbar. Star Citizen ist jetzt in der Alpha-Version 1.3 spielbar.

Auf dem Weg zur Alpha 2.0 wurde jetzt zunächst die Alpha-Version 1.3 von Star Citizen veröffentlicht. Das Update bringt neue Waffen für den Arena Commander und lässt Spieler im Social-Hub, also dem Raumhafen, mit dem Buggy herumfahren oder ihn gleich crashen. Neu sind auch die bereits zur CitizenCon 2015 angekündigten Loadouts im Hangar und eine ganze Reihe von Bugfixes und Balance-Anpassungen in allen Modulen, aber vor allem für den Raumkampf. Im Social-Hub können hingegen mehr Spieler gleichzeitig das Gebiet erkunden und neue Emotes ausprobieren. Die Spielerzahl pro Instanz liegt jetzt bei 36, also nah am finalen Ziel von 40 Spielern. Im Fahrstuhl kann man jetzt auch zwischen den Instanzen der ArcCorp-Station wählen.

Mehr zum Spiel:Die Star Map von Star Citizen jetzt schon ausprobieren

Laut Entwickler-Blog bringt der Alpha Patch 1.3 auch viele Änderungen »unter der Haube«, die auf den Übergang zur Alpha 2.0 und damit der ersten Version des persistenten Online-Universums hinarbeiten.

Ein Tipp von den Entwicklern: Wer Grafikfehler oder Abstürze nach dem Update feststellt, soll seinen USER-Ordner löschen. Außerdem gibt es eine Liste bekannter Fehler.

Wer Star Citizen in der Alpha 1.3 ausprobieren möchte, muss übrigens nur das Einsteiger-Paket kaufen.

Die deutschen Patch-Notes gibt es auf der Fanseite Citizenbase.de.

Patch-Notes zu Star Citizen Alpha 1.3

Hangar Module

Additions:

Environment

  • The Greycat Buggy has received an appearance, animation and handling overhaul.
  • The fish tank in all current Hangars has received appearance updates.
  • The elevator to Area 18 will now show all available instances of ArcCorp, how many people are present in each one, and how many people from your contact list are present.
  • There is now a "Loadout Selector" located in all player hangar's that will allow players to select what load out they will move around the Hangar and ArcCorp with. This replaces the random loadout functionality that could be cycled through on "F6".Aeroview - Loadout Selector is in the main hangar, against the wall behind you and to the right side as you spawn.Selfland - Loadout Selector is to the platform to the right of your character when you spawn, next to the Electronic Access pod.VFG Industrial - Loadout Selector is to the left of your characters when they spawn, across from the elevator to the overlook.Revel & York - Loadout Selector is to the left of your characters when they spawn, next to the Holotable.

Balance/Tweaks:

Environment

  • The Selfland Hangar is in the process of receiving a full relighting pass to improve the overall look and atmosphere.
  • The old default function of "F11" (maximize HUD) no longer has a function in game and has been removed.
  • "F6" key no longer provides in-game characters with a random loadout in the Hangar.
  • Camera free look can now be activated by "Shift+G".
  • "Ctrl+F" is now the hotkey to disembark a ship. This applies to all game-modes.

Fixes:

Ships

  • Fixed an issue where characters would not be properly aligned in the Retaliator when attempting to sit in the Retaliator pilot chair.
  • Fixed an issue where characters would appear outside of the Gladiator when attempting to sit down in the Gladiator pilot chair.
  • Fixed an issue where the pilot of a Vanduul Scythe would experience unusual camera shaking when looking around in-game.
  • Fixed an issue where the Revel & York hangar doors would sometimes snap back open without animation if repeatedly triggered.
  • Fixed several texture conflict issues in the Selfland Hangar.
  • Fixed an issue where character hands would appear to be broken when driving the Greycat buggy.
  • Fixed an issue where client framerate would drop when the cursor hovered over scrolling text.

Arena Commander Module:

Additions:

Gameplay

  • The groundwork for Interior physics grids has gone live! The Avenger, 300 series, Auroras (all Variants) and Non-Racer Mustangs will allow you to exit your seat while in flight as a result.However because the full mechanics are not yet in place, your character may clip out of your ship or be in zero-G while on the ship.
  • The Behring C-788 Ballistic Cannon has been added to the game. This gun uses a S4 mount and fires at 2.2 shots per second.
  • Size 4 fixed mounts that can replace the Hornet and Cutlass Turrets have been added to accommodate the Ballistic Cannon. The Size 4 fixed mount replaces the existing gimbal turret.
  • Apocalypse Arms WarSeries SZ4 Mass Driver has been added to the game on Voyager Direct. This gun uses a S2 mount and fires at 0.7 shots per second.

Balance/Tweaks:

Gameplay

  • Missile explosions and impact have received minor adjustments to improve both look and feel.
  • Increased the health of all ships.
  • Increased overall shield strength of all ships to reduce alpha damage and bring up survival.
  • Missile damage has been increased slightly to keep pace with health and improve effectiveness.
  • Missile lock time has been adjusted.
  • Energy weapon velocities have been increased across the board to be faster then ballistics. Damage of energy weapons has been reduced slightly to compensate.Our philosophy here is that as energy weapons do no damage until shields are down, it takes more hits by energy weapons to do real damage and accuracy is thus more important.
  • Ballistic weapons have received a corresponding buff to their potential range so that they can potentially hit targets that are farther away.
  • Shield penetration for Ballistic weapons reduced from 70% to 60%.
  • Overall missile tracking has been decreased slightly.
  • Plasma bolt range decreased by 30% for the Vanduul "Wrath" Plasma Cannon.
  • Neutron bolt speed increased by 20% for the Vanduul "War" Neutron Cannon.
  • The effectiveness of the chaff countermeasure has been increased.
  • Reduced the power plant of the F7C-M Super Hornet by 25% to make the selection and use of weapons with high power drain more meaningful.
  • The "Wrath" Plasma cannon has had damage increased, heat pool increased and coolant increased.
  • Reduced rate of fire for the Tarantula GT-870.
  • Damage for 20mm ballistic ammo has been reduced by 3.
  • Damage for 60mm ballistic ammo has been increased by 20.
  • The Cutlass has received a minor tweak to its thruster gimbals to improve maneuverability.
  • The following ships and all variants have received an update to their shield meshes and animations to better align with their ship models. Avenger, Gladius, Mustang, Cutlass, 300 Series, M50, Gladiator, Glaive.
  • Increased the power draw of the M50's engine.
  • Decreased the strength of the M50's power plant. These two changes are to ensure that the choice of mounting a weapon with high power drain vs one with low power drain on the m50 will have a meaningful impact on performance and speed.
  • Interacting character animations have been updated for all flight-ready ships.
  • Rotational acceleration and boost have both been increased on the Cutlass.
  • The following ships and all variants have received tweaks to their thruster audio: Avenger, Gladius, Hornet, 300 series, M50, Glaive, Scythe
  • "Look Ahead" mode is now turned on by default. It can be toggled on and off by "Right-ALT+M".
  • The Weapon Gimbal Lock is now on "Left-CTRL+G".

  • Fixed an issue with the Vanduul Glaive, where the boost would not work due to it having no fuel.
  • The pilot seat for the Avenger is no longer missing textures.
  • Fixed an issue where the 300 series, Avenger and Hornet (all variations) would sometimes tilt backwards when landing.#

  • Fixed an issue where the client could black screen if the lobby service was not able to communicate with the instance manager.
  • Fixed one lobby issue where the player Host would see a different map and rule for a match in the UI then the players would.# This would happen when a host created a game, left, and entered or created a new lobby.
  • Fixed an issue where players would complete a match, return to lobby, and be unable to ready-up for a new match.# This was due to the players in the group remaining in a "in match" state in GIM.

  • Missiles no longer have a graphical glitch where they retain a small portion of the firing ships interface.
