原文
Hello Prospectors!
It is time for the next update. Patch 1.3.8 is here, and we have a bunch of fixes and changes for you. Huh, 1.3.8? Didn’t we skip a few numbers? Yes and no.Some stuff is too small for a full patch, like quick hotfixes and ninja updates that don’t require maintenance. Those still get a version number though, hence the discrepancy between the last patch and this one. Hope that’ll clear up some confusion!
Anyhow, let’s just dive right into those patch notes!
Changes
We have reduced some of the PVP mission requirements.
Kills required in the adjusted missions now require 1 or 2 fewer victims.
A similar change to PvE: we have tweaked some of the numbers for mid and late-game hunting missions.
Epic Shield: Reduced Smart Mesh and Hardened Bone Plates requirement from 3 to 2.
Laser Drill Beacon: Reduced Smart Mesh requirement from 4 to 2.
After further analyzing our data on PvP encounters, the maximum number of players active on an instance has been reduced by 1, for both maps.
We have tinkered with our matchmaking to protect fresh players better and to increase the challenge for good squad players. This adjustment will also slightly adjust the experience for good solo players.
We’ve given Jeff, our beloved Marauder, a brand-new attack. Watch out for his antics.
Players in the tutorial will now wear blue armor instead of green armor. A dead recruit isn’t a great recruit after all.
Weapon Adjustments
Bulldog: Increased spread by 30%.
Advocate: Reworked the recoil pattern.
Horizontal recoil does not go back and forth like a feral animal anymore.
Kor-47: Reduced initial vertical recoil. Vertical recoil is more consistent.
ASP Flechette Gun: Reduced horizontal recoil. Vertical recoil is slightly increased for the second half of the magazine.
Voltaic Brute: Reduced horizontal recoil. Vertical recoil is slightly increased for the second half of the magazine.
Some additional words from our Creative Director Daze on the state of balancing:
"Where are we in terms of balancing at the moment? In general, we see that people are starting to use late-game gear increasingly, as we get further into the season (great!).We also see that the better the gun and armor, the more likely you are to win a fight (by quite a bit).This data is a bit tricky to interpret, as it is muddled, somewhat, by the fact that the better gun you have, the more experienced in the game you are likely to be - but:Overall, we are getting to a spot where guns perform roughly as we would want them to, where:
If you have higher-tier gear, you are significantly more likely to win a fight...
...but not by so much that a player with grey gear has zero chance even when outsmarting their opponent
What we are tuning weapons-wise for this patch is the recoil of late-game guns, making them slightly less "across the board unruly" (what we want is more of a mix in each tier of different recoil behaviors). When it comes to armor and pricing, we are making Epic armor slightly easier to craft. We want to be in a place (once again, it is a tough balance to strike!) where:
Late-game players do take their top-tier gear into raids...
...but not always (we do not want it to be a no-brainer either)
Basically: We want it to be a tactical choice, when and if to bring what gear, also at late-tier play.(Of course, a big detergent from going in with the most expensive gear is getting killed by a cheater - more on that below.) Let us know what you think and keep the feedback coming!"
Bugfixes
We have fixed an exploit in the final area of the Crusher Caverns.
Fixed some specific cases where the audio profile of a player did not reset when exiting a cave.
Fixed an issue where a Crusher’s projectile would just remain stuck on them after being shot in their weak spot. The pain dishing will resume appropriately.
Fixed an issue with the pathfinding of Striders. They finally learned to read a map.
Fixed an issue that would appear when skipping Tech Tree upgrades.
Fixed an issue where sounds just disappeared, like the cries of a helpless Prospector lost in the vacuum of space.
Improved server performance and applied a fix for server crashes. Your overall experience should be smoother now.
A couple more fixes were applied previously, so just in case you’ve missed them:
Players who owned the Ronin in the previous version of the game will now have access to all their outfit pieces.
Players who owned the Troublemaker in the previous version of the game will now have access to all their outfit pieces.
MISC
After reviewing our data, we have reduced some detection thresholds for our internal anti-cheat measures. Reducing these thresholds means the security gets tightened.
Known Issues
The Biker Queen image shows black hair, though she has white hair.
A Player Quarter upgrade may take longer than expected, this can take up to 24h longer than usual.
We have changed the Player Support tool in the game already, but it is currently not possible to send us tickets on the website.
Finally, we’d like to share a quick update on something Daze mentioned above (you folks in here most likely have seen the cheater dev update video already):
https://youtu.be/BWqObcONL6w
We are currently working on a lot of improvements on the anti-cheat front, as outlined in the video below. We recommend giving it a quick watch if you haven’t yet. The compensation feature is on a good track and we are looking into some additional methods to provide an experience as tedious as possible for cheaters and RMT folks alike.

个人译文 如下:
你好各位探矿者们!
是时候进行下一个更新了。1.3.8补丁要来了，我们有很多修复和修改带给大家。嗯,1.3.8版本吗?我们是不是跳过了几个数字?是的,也没有。有些东西对于完整的补丁来说太小了，比如快速修复和不需要维护的快捷更新。尽管如此，它们仍然有一个版本号，因此上一个补丁和这个补丁之间存在版本号差异。希望这能澄清一些困惑!
无论如何，让我们直接进入这些补丁说明!
修改内容:
我们降低了一些PVP任务的要求。 (击杀数量的减少,击杀条件的简易化)
在调整后的任务中需要的击杀现在需要减少1或2个受害者。
与PvE类似的变化是:我们调整了游戏中后期狩猎任务的一些数据。
史诗护甲:减少智能网片和硬化骨板的需求从3减少到2。(奶奶的昨天刚搓了一排紫甲)
激光钻孔信标:减少智能网格的需求从4减少到2。(奶奶的我十几个信标能还我2组网片么)
在对PVP遭遇战情况分析之后,现在对2张地图的同时存在人数进行了-1 的处理。
我们修改了一些赛局安排，以更好地保护新玩家，并提高了对优秀的老玩家的挑战。这个调整也会稍微提高一些Solo玩家的体验.
我们给了""杰夫"(老外对蓝皮的爱称)"，我们心爱的掠夺者，一次全新的攻击动作。小心他的新招数。
玩家在新手教程中将会穿蓝色盔甲而不是绿色盔甲。死掉的新兵终究不是好新兵。
武器的调整
猛犬: 扩散范围提高30%。(猛犬侠从此退出江湖?狗头)
拥护: 重做了后坐力模式。
水平后坐力不再像狂野动物动物那样来回移动了。
科47: 降低了初始垂直后坐力。垂直后坐力更一致。
ASP镖弹枪: 降低水平后坐力。在弹匣的后半段，垂直后坐力略有增加。 (镖弹后面原弹道基本是水平向左)
电流暴君 :降低水平后坐力。在弹匣的后半段，垂直后坐力略有增加。
以下是我们的创意总监Daze关于平衡状态的补充说明:
“就平衡而言，我们目前在哪里呢?总的来说，随着赛季的深入，我们看到人们开始越来越多地使用后期装备。我们还发现，枪械和装甲越好，你就越有可能赢得战斗。这个数据有点难以解释，因为它有点混乱，因为你拥有的枪越好，你在游戏中的经验就可能越丰富——但是:总的来说，我们正在越来越靠近接近一个点，那就是 枪支的表现大致与我们希望的一样，在这里:
如果你有更高级别的装备，你就应该更有可能赢得战斗…
．.． 但这并不是说穿着灰色装备的玩家即使发挥了战术优势也无法击败队友.
我们在这个补丁中调整武器方面的是游戏后期枪支的后坐力，让它们稍微不那么“完全失控”(我们想要的是在每一层不同的后坐力行为中混合)。当提到盔甲和定价时，我们会让史诗盔甲更容易制作。我们想要处于这样一个位置(再说一次，这是一个很难达到的平衡!):
游戏后期的玩家会带着他们的顶级装备去突袭……
．.． 但也不总是这样(我们也不希望它是无需思考的)
总结一下::我们希望这是一个战术选择，什么时候带什么装备，以及在后期的游戏中。(当然，用最昂贵的装备买的顶装还是会被外挂狗崽子们杀死——下文会详细介绍对策。)
让我们知道你的想法，并保持反馈!”
修正
我们修复了 阿尔法岩皮 (副本)最后区域的漏洞。
修正了一些特定的情况下，一个玩家在离开洞穴时,音频文件没有重置的问题。
修正了一个问题，一个岩皮兽的投掷物会停留在他们的弱点被击中后。疼痛会适当恢复。
修正了迅猛兽们寻路的问题。他们终于学会看地图了。
修正了跳过科技树升级时会出现的问题。(老BUG了 每天有人问)
修正了一个声音突然消失的问题，就像一个无助的勘探者的哭泣，迷失在真空的空间。
改进了服务器性能，并修复了服务器崩溃的问题。现在你的整体体验应该更流畅了。
之前应用了更多的修复，所以如果你没注意到:
在之前的游戏版本中拥有浪人的玩家现在可以获得他们所有的装备。
在前一版本游戏中拥有麻烦制造者的玩家现在可以获得他们所有的装备。
MISC(反作弊内容)※※※※※※※※老夫最关注的部分来了
在检查了我们的数据之后，我们降低了内部反作弊措施的检测阈值。降低这些阈值意味着加强安全性。
已知的问题
最后，我们想分享一个关于Daze上面提到的内容的快速更新(这里的人可能已经看过反作弊开发更新视频了):
https://youtu.be/BWqObcONL6w
我们目前在反作弊方面做了很多改进，如下面的视频所述。如果你还没有，我们建议你给它一个快速的手表。补偿功能是在一个很好的轨道上，我们正在寻找一些额外的方法，以提供一个体验，尽可能乏味的骗子和RMT的人一样。
