Starpoint Gemini 3
RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
Last update before the game is released on Nov 5 (bonfire night ) along with, if I read it right another update on that day.
From Steam
Hello to all of you!
We know many of you were anxious for any further news and updates, so here we are, with some good news! Hopefully new waves of pandemic didn't impact you too much. On our side, we've done a large leap towards version 1.0 in recent weeks. Apologies for not updating you sooner, but we had many closely linked parts of the game in development pipeline recently, so we had to proceed ahead very carefully.
This update is quite a big one (about 2.5 gigs), and it is deployed today in order to close the difference between our version and Steam Early Access version. It will change the game a lot in many aspects and all of these changes are also a foundation for next update, and that one will be release version 1.0!
You've heard it right – the next update is the complete unlocking of the entire game. And in case you were wondering when – it will happen on November 5th! , just a few days from now!
Anyways, in the next couple of days, you can check out the massive content of this update. Full list is below, but in short – gameplay-wise, we've changed pretty much everything. New missions, new encounters, new sectors, new weapons, unique weapons, unique blueprints, new ship modules, complete rebalance of economy and difficulty etc...
There are also many tweaks added according to your suggestions. We couldn't include them all (yet) but step by step.
The overall feeling of the game, pace of advancement and credits earning is now very much different from before, but note that this was needed to improve current gameplay, as well as a preparation for the upcoming player-owned capital ships. They will be big and expensive, so you'll need to be ready for them.
Hope you'll enjoy everything new, and will get ready for Thursday the 5th. On that day, we're making another large update, unlocking the entire campaign and introducing capitals ships.
And if you thought it's all over after 5th, no it isn't. We already have plans for updates that will take the game past version 1.0 and beyond...
CHANGES
ADDED: NPC capital ships now have special abilities
ADDED: New rewards for exploring Alien Ruin
ADDED: Unlocked path to additional Alien Ruins
ADDED: New weapon blueprint: Gaul

ADDED: Significant experience points for investigating Alien Ruin
ADDED: Energy pack equipment
ADDED: New clusters of derelicts in numerous sectors

ADDED: Darwin sector objects, paths, blueprints and asteroid fields
ADDED: Dogon sector opened
ADDED: More places with opened freeroam during campaign

ADDED: Enemy fighters rebalanced, tuned regarding weapons loadouts and damage stats, shields

RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
For those that have been playing around with the early access build do you think its ready for prime time or should it have more dev time?
I bought this already, but I should reply SPG2 since I didn't entirely finish it before jumping to this one.

Last update before the game is released on Nov 5 (bonfire night )
[attach]59[/attach]
It's been cancelled by Boris
Not sure if it's ready for release as I not played the game for a while but their were a couple of things I did not like about the game but they were both more to do with the game design, more than features of the game.
Just downloading that patch but I think I will wait a while before playing it and give them time to fix any issues with the game.

You can expect updates to continue and a number of improved and expanded game features to increase in the coming days and weeks, starting with new cockpits for the freeroam mode, additional docking cutscenes, further improvements to capital ships and much more...We're starting the work on a new update later today!
Full list of changes is here:

ADDED: Mouse sensitivity options range increased
UPDATED: Timer prolonged for ISS interior mission during campaign on easy difficulty
UPDATED: Several docking/undocking cutscenes improved
UPDATED: Capital ships upgrades impact improved greatly
UPDATED: Capital ships weapon icons improved
UPDATED: Improved LOD with several Scaffolding structures
FIXED: Some encounter quests difficulty corrected
FIXED: Gunship derelicts now drop proper loot after destruction
FIXED: Derelict radiation corrected, occasional excessive radiation removed

RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
And the game has had another update a couple of days ago.
Hello everyone!
Just before Christmas, we've completed another round of improvements and additions. Version 1.200 finally allows your capital ships to have autofire mode and properly use their firepower. This autofire system will always use rear and side weapon turrets, as these are hardest for players to use personally due to capital ship slow turning momentum. Now they will automatically engage any enemy within firing range and arc ( if he is not in front of you).
We've also eliminated several frequent bugs you've reported, and tweaked stations trade inventories to make collect missions and crafting more accessible.
With that said, we're proceeding to further tasks, and to all of you we extend best wishes for the upcoming Holidays. Stay safe and celebrate as much as possible in these circumstances of the Year 2020. !
Full changelog for this update is here:
CHANGES
ADDED: Automated fire with capital ships, using rear and side weapon turrets automatically
ADDED: New „Collect“ barman quest added on numerous stations
ADDED: While using controller and fighting capital ships, autotarget will aim for closest available weakpoint on capital ship
UPDATED: Numerous stations now sell additional items so it is easier to gather ingredients for barman missions and crafting system
UPDATED: When approaching the planet in cruise speed, cruise will disengage in close proximity to the planet
UPDATED: New visual effect when player is too close to planet
FIXED: Bug with looping cruise engine sound eliminated
FIXED: Bug with appearing timer countdown while fighting near stations eliminated
FIXED: Extracting beams, while in cockpit mode, now looks visually as intended
FIXED: Critical system failure achievement now works correctly
FIXED: Bug with blueprint loop, if performing Nav Buoy jumps near blueprints is resolved
Fly safe and stay safe!

RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
Just starting a new playthrough of the game and see what has changed from early access.
Only about a couple of hours into it and the control are just as bad as they were before but I can get used to the WASD and mouse combo.
My ship dose not seem to take any damage? and I could have swore you had to repair damage before and these bloody drone missions are just as annoying as they were in early access.

RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
I have a few more games to finish before I can jump into others.... I forgot was SPG3 multiplatform? Maybe they added keyboard/mouse as a second thought to the controller. But I do want to replay SPG2 and then 3. Posted by: @pinback

That seems a little concerning
Or maybe your getting better and better with age Pinback haha
Looks like the last patch was last year? LGM used to patch and support games a lot longer.... this was released in 2020 and no patches in 2021? Hmm

Nope worse
I did get killed but it was due to a boss fight as the balance in the game is way off, you can kill pirates all day long with out taking much damage.
If you do die it will be because you have been swarmed by multiple enemy or radiation also I'm pretty sure the game has no damage model to the ship.
The game has some problems mostly down to bad game design and UI although I did find that if you hit the "W" key twice it will max the engine speed which is better than keeping you finger on it all the time.
Going to play it for another 5 or 6 hours then gives some thoughts on it.

RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
Spent about ten hours playing the main game and I'm upto that stealth drone mission which is no fun at all.
The more time I play it, the more I feel that the game remains unfinished, and I can' help but feel that if they had gone that extra mile they could have sorted them out.
Edit- Got past the drone mission only to have a boss fight with a cap ship and now I got to destroy some gun turrets around a station, no fun that having all three one after the other.

RE: Starpoint Gemini 3
That chain mission has destroyed any chance of me paying any further, which is a shame as I would have liked to know what Bold got up to, they really should have got him drunk at another station and allowed the player to stock up on missiles ect, then do the station turrets mission.
