Today Update 8 is now available on the Early Access version of Satisfactory for everyone to try out and have fun with it! This update showcases the combined efforts of the studio over more than a year worth of work with both Unreal Engine 5 and Update 8 as a whole, so there are a LOT of changes that have happened since Update 7 released on Early Access. We’ve spent the last few months trying our best to stabilize as much as we can so you all can have a good experience when Update 8 releases on Early Access, with that being said, It never hurts to BACK UP YOUR SAVES :) If you are experiencing issues, want to give us some feedback, or just post any cool ideas you might have, please let us know over at our QA/Questions Site: https://questions.satisfactorygame.com/ We always enjoy reading all your comments after a big update like this Our community manager Snutt has prepared a new video for you all which goes over what’s new in Update 8 so be sure to check it out If you have been following along through Experimental, everything in this patch notes will be already known to you, as this build has little or no changes from the latest Experimental from last week, but you can still give them a look as there might be a new thing or two you didn’t know about However, If you haven’t been keeping up with the patch releases at all, there are a LOT of new things to go through, so grab a snack/drink and let’s get started Upgrading to Unreal Engine 5 With this come many reworks and updates of systems that should improve aspects of the game, We’ve put a lot of effort into stabilising the game and performance before the Early Access release, but there might very well be things that we’ve missed.

Jace talked about the upgrade in depth in one of our earliest Update 8 videos check it out for more info! : https://youtu.be/dY__x2dq7Sk World partitioning With world partitioning in UE5 the level streaming should be much more flexible compared to the tile-based system we used before, reducing hitches that you will have encountered where these tiles used to intersect. Vehicle physics & sound overhaul With UE5 comes an all-new physics simulation called Chaos, we’ve reworked our vehicles to use this instead of our previous implementation. The manual driving of vehicles has been redone and we made improvements in feel and usage of the different vehicles. With this we also reworked all vehicle sounds, eliminating many issues and overall improving quality and consistency. Enhanced Input System A new system we switched to with Unreal Engine 5 is the Enhanced Input system. With this we implemented contextual key bindings in the options, allowing for much more granularity and control over your control scheme across different contexts like the build mode, driving vehicles, using equipment, etc. Upscaling (DLSS, XeSS, FSR) Added several upscalers for any ha...Update 8 Fixes v0.8.2.9Nov 9, 2023 - Community AnnouncementsHi Pioneers!
