Shame the main story hasn't moved on, but there's lots of side missions to pick up. I found a destroyed zirax space station, which had some nice loot, so it's well worth searching the space around planets.

Would be good to have some missions that pull together the key game elements, need to spend some time exploring space.

I was looking at the new assets added with the latest update and they have a whole lot of new armor. One is AI assisted and is a "mission item", best guess is a mission reward for saving IDA?. Others are UCH EVA suit, Battle armor, and Polaris armor. I transferred my game files into a new game and restarted and found a gold deposit on a starter planet. Also found a lot more neo, zasc and erest in space wreck loot boxes.

Sounds interesting. it is possible the missions are being reworked for the full RE2 update with the armour being mission rewards. These may replace the epic armours of the base game, although it would be fun have some original looking armour to wear.
Really need to get into space to check out the wrecks.

@StephenSilverbeard Just an FYI. Also found a couple of CV wrecks with engines and a wreck called "Unstable Warp Core", don't get too close or it will explode. Snipe the core with SV guns. It will take a bunch of ammo, but you get a warp drive and fuel tanks that way.
Found another CV wreck that was easy to find the core that has a warp drive, pentaxid tank, fuel tanks, O2 tanks, and 1 RCS.

[@StephenSilverbeard]

An exploding CV sounds like something that would be added to the game. As they say variety is the spice of life.
Need to get the warp drive installed in the SV, then get out and explore the starter system.

Would you not consider using a workshop resource "stuffer"...?

[@StephenSilverbeard]

Have considered using it a couple of times, but have not actually used it. Maybe it is time to consider giving it a go.
