All of the patch notes are applicable to all platforms with the exception of the API/Journal/VR sections.
They do have a business to run after all. So why should you or anyone care? Especially if you/they are "Non-purchasers" anyway, it has little to no impact on you. Let others enjoy the game and in game purchases they want it is not play to win so has no bearing on game play.
That's what I thought ?
Oops .. i had expected Superlarge Ships like the Narwal, Panther Clipper/Panther LX, and the Type 10 Defender, and the requirement for this would be landing on planets with Athmosphere. Walking on ships, stations, planets (with atmosphere) and driving with the buggys (more than the scarap) on planet, but nothing. So it seems to be, that with this Update nothing fundamentel new is coming. What a pity.
Indepenendtly to these i am curious to see what the new fixed and features will bring to the game, and how long these could be interesing to an extende player. So far ...

The Type 10, Thargoids and other mysterious stuff is content that gets revealled as events happen. It might be that we get a Galnet story that triggers an event, and that the Type 10 is a response to other in game happenings.
I'm the type of person that opens the post the instant it arrives. Must. discover. secrets.
But seriously, all patch notes are awesome, nice work Fdev
So, couple of questions to all that may know;
I've updated the client/launcher now so it loads the game screen then fails to login, which is as we all expect presently; is that all I need to do or does Steam need to update anything also? (it did as mentioned by others install it to a non default location so I cut n pasted the files overwriting the existing in the correct folder, so Steam loads the new launcher not the outdated one)
I am currently on a Passenger Mission on the way back from Sag A* to Colonia and landed on a planet for the night having made it to The Centre yesterday evening, will I still get my rewards etc. when I return or is that likely to be wiped? (I seem to remember it was before in a previous update), I'm hoping to make use of the new 20KLy plotter on my return..

...Added cool mystery thingie . and even more cool mystery thingie...
Under 'general stability fixes' ??
If that's not just good humor, does it mean something like 'crash avoidance by introducing Thargoid firing their green flashy thingy'?
Let's have a look...

They haven't said missions will be wiped, so should be fine.
My thoughts on some of these changes:
Audio Fixes and Improvements
Galaxy Map/System Map
Missions
NPCs
Server
Audio Fixes and Improvements
- Fixed an issue where the "Shields offline" audio played after every jump when shields were turned off
Galaxy Map/System Map
- Fixed an issue that caused route plotting to plot a route twice if you have neutron star boost turned upon starting a new game session
- Fixed an issue whereby long range route plotting failed to update route target after 1000 ly jumped
Missions
- Ship kills, and actions to complete planetary hack and disable missions will now only contribute to a single mission, this will be the earliest mission accepted
- Fixed some over-inflated mission rewards
- For ship kill missions, the mission giver is considered when deciding if a kill should count. This allows for some mission stacking, but only when missions are from different factions
- Multiple Planetary Scan missions will no longer complete after a single scan
- Added support for missions allocating additional rewards based on station distance from the jump-in point
NPCs
- Trigger-happy NPCs will now only shoot missiles once the target's shields have dropped
- Fixed the falling skimmer issue that could occur on planet surfaces
Server
- Various reliability and performance improvements
Still excited about the boost to route plotting range.
I've made 4-5 guilds/clans/factions (all ended no.1 in different games and usually stayed at the top for months/years/to the end of the game/...) , ranging from 60 people to 600, so I've got quite a good idea, what a bloody guild or clan is and how it operates and what tools it should include. I have seen more advanced guild systems in worthless browser games.
if you get a tag, that doesn't mean you're in a clan/guild, you are there only in your imagination.
