The video discusses the upcoming patch 4.0.1 for the game, featuring the new ship called The Misc Fortune, a variant of the Prospector designed for industrial gameplay without living quarters, indicating it may not be suited for long-range use.

In the latest video, the host discusses the upcoming patch 4.0.1 for the game, highlighting the anticipated introduction of a new ship called The Misfortune. The Misfortune appears to be a variant of the Prospector, featuring design elements reminiscent of that ship. Images shared by Ice gesture on social media showcase its exterior, which includes potential future containers for easier unloading. The ship’s design suggests a focus on industrial gameplay, with some speculation on its capacity and functionality compared to other ships like the Vulture.
The video delves into the specifics of The Misfortune’s design, noting the absence of living quarters that were present in the Prospector. This could imply that the ship is not intended for long-range use, contrasting with the Vulture’s capabilities. The host emphasizes that while both ships may have similar cargo capacities, the lack of sleeping quarters could be a significant trade-off for players considering which ship to use for their gameplay needs.
Moving on to the patch updates, the host outlines several bug fixes and enhancements introduced in the PTU version 4.0.1. One key change involves improvements to the aiming prediction of size 6 and 10 station turrets, which could impact player interactions near stations due to enhanced security measures. Additionally, players will no longer hear sounds from others in their personal hangars, and issues with kiosks that previously kicked players out have been addressed, though there are concerns about whether this fix will hold.
The video also touches on delivery missions, which have seen improvements in the latest patch. Previously, players faced challenges locating mission boxes, but this has been resolved, along with a fix for cargo missions where supplies would get stuck in warehouses. The host notes that elevator carriages, which had been missing and caused players to fall through the game world, have been restored, addressing another prevalent issue that players experienced.
Lastly, the host encourages viewers to check their emails for a newsletter related to Squadron 42, which includes updates and contests. They also mention a giveaway for a Me Guardian, inviting viewers to subscribe and comment for a chance to win. The video concludes with the host expressing gratitude to their supporters and providing a personal update on their health, hoping to return to full strength soon.
