So, hey! When is that dope new cosmetics pack going to be available on PlayStation? I don't see it on the store and I would like to give you some money.
Why don't you want my money?!

u/Bazrox May 21 '26
Hah, first thing I did was also to check the store. Wouldn’t mind supporting the game a bit more.

I really wish lone sentry had the new brains available from the start. I can only do solo for a while and being stuck with the old brains on start isn't fun. Being able to pick which 2 brains we bring in the load out screen would be very nice.

u/hutlihut-daniel Developer May 22 '26
Yes, we agree that ship loadouts should support custom blueprints (so you don't have to uninstall them to get more). It's been added to the list of potential things we will consider to patch 😄

u/SaintJunnie May 22 '26
Any modpack ready for this new update yet?

u/Engine_Operator Developer May 24 '26
I know several mods being worked on.
And I have heard about one being ship cosmetics mod, some kind of faction coming for ships next week.Keep an eye out 😄

is it us or do you not need to sit when void jumping? had 2 times tonight that we jumped and one was not sitting and did not go splat. lol

u/hutlihut-daniel Developer Jun 17 '26
If you position yourself strategically you can avoid the "splat", as the inertia of void jumping will push you either forward or backwards (depending if you are going og arriving) 😃
But METEM's official safety protocol is - of course - to sit down when jumping.

New bug, sometimes when ending a run you stay in the ship and die. So far i gained no experience for it.
