Following early feedback from our Partner Program, we will be delaying the release of the Type-11 Prospector and the coinciding update until early next week. This is to allow the team necessary time to address concerns which will improve your experience with the ship.

These changes will include:

  • A rebalance of the Prospector’s mining stats, including increasing the fragments per second from mining, increased limpet speed and more.

  • Minor visual changes to the Prospector, including the removal of a flashing light reflecting in the cockpit while firing the Mining Volley Repeater.

  • Audio rebalancing for the audio distribution of the Prospector’s mining laser.

  • Tweaks to the Prospector’s flight model

  • Additional fixes

Whilst we understand many of you were looking forward to the release tomorrow, this short delay will allow us to ensure the Prospector launches ready to deliver a mining performance worthy of Lakon’s latest innovation.

We are currently aiming to release the ship and update early next week, and we’ll provide further updates as soon as they are available.
