Happy New Year! We've been working on another Distant Star patch! Once again, after reading your feedback we made some adjustments to the balancing. We've also given you the ability to turn on or off VSync and squashed a bug. If you haven't tried the new and improved Distant Star: Revenant Fleet, please take a moment to jump back in and let us know what you think! Likewise, if you're happy with the new updates and haven't left us a review, or you feel like updating an old one please do - to a small studio like ours, it's a big help!

The new defaults will only be applied to new installs and for those that restore default keybinds in the controls settings. Any previously setup keybinds will be preserved. [/list] [h1]Graphics:[/h1] Turned off VSync by default. For those with issues having VSync turned off, it can be re-enabled through the Steam command prompt.

So we’ve differentiated them by increasing the damage, charge times and firing times of the more advanced Lance attachments. This should make them more difficult to use, but far more rewarding. *Kaboom!* [/i] [list][*]Experimental Auto Lance I damage decreased from 500 to 450 [*]Experimental Auto Lance II damage decreased from 550 to 495 [*]Experimental Auto Lance III damage decreased from 600 to 540 [*]Experimental Auto Lance I price decreased from 3340 to 3000 [*]Experimental Auto Lance II price decreased from 4035 to 3630 [*]Experimental Auto Lance III price decreased from 4800 to 4320 [*]Nova Lance’s cooldown increased from 12 to 15 seconds [*]Nova Lance’s charge time increased from 3 to 5 seconds [*]Nova Lance’s firing time increased from 3 to 5 seconds [*]Nova Lance I damage decreased from 1000 to 840 [*]Nova Lance II damage decreased from 1100 to 924 [*]Nova Lance III damage decreased from 1200 to 1008 [*]Nova Lance I price increased from 4000 to 4200 [*]Nova Lance II price increased from 4840 to 5085 [*]Nova Lance III price increased from 5760 to 6050 [*]Overload Lance’s cooldown increased from 10 to 30 seconds [*]Overload Lance’s charge time increased from 5 to 10 seconds [*]Overload Lance’s firing time increased from 5 to 10 seconds [*]Overload Lance’s energy cost increased from 1000 to 3000 [*]Overload Lance’s shield cost increased from 0 to 2000 [*]Overload Lance I damage increased from 700 to 1000 [*]Overload Lance II damage increased from 770 to 1100 [*]Overload Lance III damage increased from 840 to 1200 [*]Overload Lance I price increased from 4670 to 5000 [*]Overload Lance II price increased from 5650 to 6050 [*]Overload Lance III price increased from 6720 to 7200 [/list] [b]Developer Comments: [/b]: [i]: Missiles have been too strong in comparison to Cannon attachments since our 1.1 rebalance, so we’ve toned them down.
