My real beef is with the heatsink -1. All my big ships run 2 SCB's each, and 1 heatsink to SCB. I'm always left with an SCB I can't use without frying my ship, or installing a third heatsink launcher which would of course scrub a shield booster from the build. QQ I know, but [sad] all the same. I guess it'll be 3 heatsink modules for 2 SCB's from now on.

But how do you know that you will be using the same build? So much is changing, you can probably get weapons that generate lower heat, maybe even upgrade the SCB to produce less heat, beef up your shields.

You can assume yes, but don't get too down until you've seen how it all fits together.
 
i got that error when trying to install 64 bit missoin update but the engineers one is installing any idea why anybody

Question... is a "rank" mission an "ascension" mission? I'm referring to the fix for "rank" missions that fail for no reason.

I'm curious because unless I missed it somehow (which I don't think I did), there's no mention of a fix for all the "surface" missions that fail for no reason, which is roughly 2/3rds of all surface missions one takes at any given time. I'm referring to the "salvage with a purpose" and "one of our pilots have gone missing" (and the other names for those types of missions). Rather odd that they wouldn't fix those, those comprise about 1/2 of everything purposeful you can do on a planet's surface...gathering materials being the other half.

Perhaps so, though I haven't seen anything about modified SCB's or improved heat dissipation. SCB's are the real heat generators, my usual weapon selections don't require heat sinks.

SCBs were mentioned during one of the recent live streams as having 'recipes'.

You can upgrade all modules :)

*Edit* and yes as Nagul said

I haven't read it all yet but I'm really surprised you guys added an orbital in the Phiince system for this guy:

and still waiting for it to start installing update
 
Can anyone provide a link to the Beta launcher? I've downloaded from the store several times, and I just get the regular game, no Upgrade option. (LEP owner).
