Star Conflict update 0.8 forces a complete overhaul of every player's ship loadout
In short: Scott Manley breaks down the significant changes introduced in Star Conflict update 0.8. This patch fundamentally alters ship classes, roles, and tier placements, requiring players to rethink their entire fleet configuration and module compatibility.
The 0.8 update introduces a major shift in game mechanics by reclassifying ship roles and adjusting core statistics. Some vessels have been moved to different tiers, while others have seen their functional roles swapped entirely. These changes are designed to enforce stricter specialization across the game's roster.
A key component of this update is the new restriction on module fitting. Players can no longer equip tactical modules on ships unless they align with the specific role of the spacecraft. While the patch removes some existing modules, it introduces a variety of new options, necessitating a complete refit of all ships. Unlike previous updates, this iteration is noted for bringing positive improvements to the game's balance.
