Update 1.1 is out now on Experimental!
by css_uzu
Hi Pioneers! Today it’s the release of our first content update since leaving early access and we would like to introduce you all to our newest features with our 1.1 update! This update is available right now on the Experimental version of the game, so before trying it out it’s always good to BACKUP YOUR SAVES This is how you can access the Experimental version: Steam: Right clicking the game > Properties > Betas > Beta Participation > Experimental Epic: Go to your library and download the Experimental version Why Experimental? Since the 1.0 release, we want to continue delivering a stable experience on the default version of the game Using experimental allows us to polish everything up some more before releasing it to everyone and potentially including some side effects which might affect the current experience Also, as usual this update is quite big in terms of changes as we’ve been working alongside with Fishlabs ( https://fishlabs.de ) for a few years now They have designed and imp...

Coffee Stain Studios has announced some contents of the upcoming 1.1 update for Satisfactory, the first update for the popular and genre-defining sandbox factory game since its quite successful 1.0 release last year. It's a doozy, combining a ton of quality-of-life and design features that players have been modding in on their own since Satisfactory came out... Read more.
Satisfactory update 1.1 brings essential new tools to the sandbox game
Hi Pioneers! Hello again everyone, Here is another patch for Experimental, today we have a much bigger change that improves our Foliage, Lightweight, Recipe and Schematics systems to overcome multiple networking bottlenecks that we’ve had in the past While playing in Multiplayer and Dedicated Servers, you could end up in situations where after removing large amounts of foliage, foliage might stop replicating completely, resulting in foliage being non-interactable or not properly disappearing, the same could happen to buildables like Foundations and Walls among others after building many of them. We’ve made improvements that should result in less strain on Unreal Engine’s replication system leading to an improved multiplayer experience, they should also alleviate the “Reliable Buffer Overflow” issues on joining a session, as well as addressing additional side issues like interacting with the Advanced Game Settings menu during multiplayer kicking you out of a session With this, there sho...
Experimental Update v1.0.1.5
by css_uzu
Hi Pioneers! Hello again everyone, Today we are reopening Experimental again! From now on we intend to use Experimental to properly implement bigger bug fixes, programming changes or optimizations without compromising the current 1.0 experience for those who are comfortably playing in the 1.0 default version of Satisfactory This should also help with reducing the frequency of patches/downloads necessary for the majority of players since we’ll space out a bit more when we will move Experimental versions into the default version once they have been stabilized Since changes in Experimental might have some unexpected side effects, please BACKUP YOUR SAVES before trying it out You can find your saves in: %LocalAppData%/FactoryGame/Saved/SaveGames/ There should be a folder with a lot of numbers, that is your Steam/Epic ID and that folder will contain your saves, you can copy this folder somewhere else The fixes today involve the Customizer, Lightweight Buildables as well as a Dedicated serve...
