Alpha 4.10.3 brings the Intergalactic Aerospace Expo, a Vanduul incursion in Nyx, two new flyable ships, the Skarnov rifle, and 129 bug fixes.
Events & Missions
- The IAE 2956 runs at the Tobin Expo Center in New Babbage, accessible by Metroloop; four guild halls show ships tied to their trade, and rental kiosks let you fly over 200 ships and vehicles free, with the available fleet growing each day as new manufacturers are featured.
- InterSec Defense Solutions now offers seven contract types targeting the Vanduul push into Nyx — station raids, ship retakes, clan extermination, a three-way standoff, and a high-difficulty destroyer hunt among them. Completing these earns blueprints for the Skarnov rifle, BEHR laser cannons, and several armor sets.
New Ships & Weapons
- The RSI Galaxy (large multi-crew ship with swappable cargo or medbay modules) and the Anvil Liberator (heavy carrier with internal and topside landing pads) are both flyable.
- The LBCO Skarnov is a fully automatic DMR whose rounds chain electrical discharges between nearby targets; it overheats faster in hot environments and slower in cold ones.
- Several ships — including the Aegis Tiburon, Drake Ironclad, Drake Pitbull, Origin M80, and others — are now purchasable in-game with aUEC at their respective dealerships.
Balance & Ships
- Salvage buffer capacities are significantly larger fleet-wide, and the disintegration field is more forgiving on alignment.
- The Mauler destroyer's weapons are deadlier but its hull HP is roughly halved to compensate.
- Six ships gain Size 3 radars, and Size 1/3 bomb racks are now sold at Orison.
Stability & Fixes
- Thirteen crash and stability issues are resolved, including four server-side crashes and several client-side ones.
- Fourteen targeted fixes address the ASOP and hangar flow, covering greyed-out retrieval buttons, vehicles clipping into pads, impound fine display, and more.
- Cargo, freight elevators, mission spawning, and the mobiGlas contract list all receive focused attention.
This is a summary of the main highlights — the official patch notes contain the full list of changes and fixes.
