Hello Galactic Survivalists!

Today we are not only releasing "Dark Faction", our first content expansion for Empyrion Galactic Survival - we are also releasing a general update for version 1.11

You can find all changes in the changelog below.

The bugfixes listed below also apply to owners of the DLC. We released most of the planned bug fixes towards the end of last year because we didn't want to keep you waiting for the release of version 1.11!

Very important: For the main game version without DLC, development will of course continue (with free content updates and bug fixes)!

As always, we look forward to your valued feedback!

Have fun playing!
Your Eleon Game Studios team.

Main game changes:
- Base attack system changes: now the base attack's system checks for the playfield difficulty level & also the player structures attack & defense rating to determine what kind of attack will be triggered.
- Decreased the overall fog seen when lights (suit light, handheld light, spotlights) are enabled in particular weather types
- DialogueState from BlockConfig.ecf: if this is set, always this dialogue state is taken (even if it is overwritten using god mode)
- DialogueSystem: added 'RemoveBookmark(int bmId)' and new 'AddBookmark()' with possibility to get the bookmark id (bmId) on bookmark creation
- Edited FWN constructor icons to include a colored background and darker shadows.
- Various optimisations done for loading into saves to cut down on how long it takes to load into a save game.

Playfield changes ‘Akua’ playfield:
- RockResources can be easier dug close to poles
- Tundra biome is larger
- Nights are a bit brighter; adjusted Storm fog colors
- Biomes tweaked for decorations, added Savanna transition biome ‘HighGrass’
- Terrain stamp placement tweaks, removing some texture artifacts. Note: Playfield seed has been altered.

Fixes:
- Parts Collection window: fixed CoQ when pressing "L" in the search window, now updating the page "Info" when pressing "Reload" of a BP and also reloading it in BP lib (so the new version gets spawned)
- Parts Collection Window: fixed Blueprints losing blocks when saving a BP via Parts Collection Window and there were blocks without Id changed/moved in BlocksConfig.ecf
01184: Delay of Fuel calculation for just loaded structure lead to wrong fuel consumption
01113: Forcefield effect visual glitch while moving in 1PV on the vessel...

Hello Galactic Survivalists!

Today, not only are we releasing version 1.11, but we are also celebrating the launch of our first true expansion of the main game with "Dark Faction"!



In order to reward you for your monetary support with appropriate content, we have been working hard on various features that will also open up entirely new thematic areas for the future.

Among others:

- Dynamic territory expansion of the Dark Faction across the galaxy!

- The Dark Field, a planetary and orbital effect field that will affect your drives, weapons, and much more.

- New decoration on conquered planets as well as corrupted animals and NPCs

- A completely new type of enemy that dynamically develops from an egg form to camouflaged soldiers and then to an egg-laying queen.

- Grenade launchers (with bouncing grenades), bows (with explosive arrows), and swords (including a temporary energy shield!)

- The organic-technological arsenal of the Dark Faction with new devices, weapons, and new organic building blocks, including textures and more than 50 exclusive, organic shapes and organic doors!

- Volumetric fog in conquered orbits.

You can find detailed information in our Game FAQ: https://empyriononline.com/threads/faq-dark-faction.102209

For all other questions please head over to our general FAQ about the DLC: https://empyriononline.com/threads/faq-dark-faction-dlc.102169/

Of course, with these contents, we are just getting started on the theme "Dark Faction" and the associated features and functions.

More content and updates are planned and will follow - as always, incorporating your feedback!

But for now, we hope you have a lot of fun and thank you in advance for your support!

Your Eleon Game Studios team.

Hello Galactic Survivalists!

First and foremost: We are extremely excited about your enthusiasm for the upcoming DLC 'Dark Faction'! We are also delighted with all the positive feedback and numerous questions that have reached us in the last few days .

You can find the announcement including the trailer OVER HERE.

We will now try to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about the Empyrion Galactic Survival DLC 'Dark Faction'.

Additionally, we plan to release more blog posts with further details and information about the DLC in the weeks leading up to the release!

As always: If you have specific questions about the gameplay or the new features of the DLC, feel free to post them below this message and we will try to answer them in the next theme blog.

Without further delay - let's get started!

FAQ

- General -

Does the DLC only work in single player?
Server owners can set up servers based on the DLC-included game version as normal. However, all players must own and have installed the main game and the DLC to play on these servers

Is the "Dark Faction Rising" scenario suitable for multiplayer mode?
The scenario is intended for single player and small co-op games. It is not balanced or made for dedicated servers. Dedicated multiplayer scenarios based on the DLC may follow in the future.

Will the content of the main game (version with and without DLC) continue to be updated free of charge (content updates, bug fixes)?
We will continue to provide the main game (version without DLC) with free content and bug fixes for its owners. Owners of the DLC version of the game will of course also receive associated bug fixes and DLC-specific content updates free of charge

Will there be another bug fix update before the DLC release?
Bug fixes that are relevant for both the main game version with and without DLC will, whenever possible, be fixed and installed at the same time. However, it is also possible that the DLC game version and the non-DLC game version will sometimes be updated independently of each other. Please keep an eye on our announcements!

- Compatibility -

Can I download/subscribe to blueprints created with the DLC for my non-DLC game?
We are currently clarifying the final technical...

The first planet falls on February 6!

Hello Galactic Survivalists!

Today, we’re absolutely thrilled to announce that Dark Faction, our most ambitious project yet, arrives on February 6!



This DLC is priced at $9.99 / €9.99 and therefore, it contains a brand-new experience and a whole lot of content.

In this first ever DLC for the game, you will discover a terrifying threat to the entire galaxy: an almost indestructible organism driven to spread and take over any life it touches. Plunge into an intense survival story from the moment you enter the world.

We developed this scenario with both new and veteran players in mind. The new player experience provides an easy way to learn the basics of the game while setting up the new story. If you want to experience the new content on an existing character but without the story, you can do that too.

New Features

A New Story (requires new character):
Wake up on a derelict ship and discover what has befallen the crew. Uncover the secrets of the Dark Faction and how to stop its spread across the galaxy.

Dark Faction Planets:
Explore a new and deadly environment that’s spreading across the galaxy.

Dark Faction Building Blocks:
Expand your creativity with a new set of organic building blocks.

New Devices:
Craft new powerful devices such as the Translocator, Phase Shield, and Corrupted Shield.

Updated Melee Combat:
We’ve updated melee combat, which plays a large role from the beginning of the scenario.

We’ve Partnered with Funcom!

In addition, we’re delighted to announce that we’ve partnered with Funcom for marketing duties on our future projects. That goes for Dark Faction... and beyond.

Funcom’s previous publishing record includes Shiro Games’ Dune: Spice Wars and The Outsiders’ multi-award winning Metal: Hellsinger. They are also the developers of the open world survival game Conan Exiles.

With Funcom taking care of marketing, we’re free to focus entirely on development, and as you will see with Dark Faction, this has given us the opportunity to raise the bar for both the quality and quantity of our content.

A New Chapter for Empyrion

We want to thank you all so much for your support. Being able to release a DLC of this size and scope is a big milestone that...
