Been playing this on Gamepass and its very, very good. Started dragging a bit where I am now though.
500k total or 500k since EA ended? Reads like the first.
Not dragging it down, I got it very early in EA and have spent 95 hours in total in it, fantastic game.

A very good game with surprising engagement.
They should really release a demo.
This game really grabbed me after I picked it up a few days ago.
It reminds me of Snowrunner in a way, where you look at videos and read the description and think to yourself "There is ZERO chance this is actually enjoyable. No way this is fun to do" but then you actually play it and it becomes this chill experience with sometimes surprisingly tense situations you get yourself into cause you zoned out too much and missed a detail/precaution.

Bought at EA launch and finally tried this a few days ago.
It seems very cool but the story is uhh very heavy handed and not super interesting so far but the tutorial was good and fun but I felt overwhelmed Ed after that lol. There's a lot going on and even I have a huge ship in front of me I get paralyzed with indecision on what I should do. So that's where I've stopped maybe I'll look up some videos on YT that explain things a bit more. Game is super pretty too.

Congrats! You love to see it. I'm really keen to play this one; love the whole vibe and tactile gameplay. Hoping they say something else positive about console plans soon.
Yaaassss!! It's officially happening!

I hope the controller support is good and better than PowerWash Simulator turned out before making a bunch of remapping to make it decent. Seems more likely since it's a lot of 3D space movement that should be fine.
It's.....functional. They had to bind stuff to clicking down the sticks, which is always bad, and coming to a full stop involves clicking down both at the same time, which is even worse. It's a LOT more functional on the steam deck, where you can bind actions to the grip buttons. Even the additional 2 grip buttons on the steam controller would help a ton
Great news! I really hope the team continues to support the game going forward. I really wanted to be able to start my own salvage company using the gear bought from LYNX. Have you start out with a small salvage yard and progress your way up. Also, letting players be able to construct ships would be rad.
Honestly could be whenever. I'm just happy they're going through with it. Must have been a tricky time figuring things out between gens.
This is a bit weird. If you can do this, you should allow rebinding to R1+L1 for instance. Look at what Elite Dangerous is doing with controller support - up to triple input macros for any action in an entire complex sim.
I think it's mapped to doing both rotate actions at once. But I'm not sure that doing both bumpers to hold position is really that viable either, given how often you use it
Being able to map to the touchpad would be helpful (potentially 4 extra "buttons"). Not sure what the Xbox equivalent would be.
Yes, this game is still lovely and strangely relaxing.
I kinda wish it took place in the Homeworld universe, just so we could disassemble those great ship designs. The game's tone doesn't really mesh with Homeworld's though.

Thought it'd be the end of this year earliest, so this was a nice surprise!
They were quiet about console versions for so long, but finally came through. Can't wait. Really hope it does well!
I love booting this game up every couple evenings or so and just going at a ship and taking it apart as I continue the campaign.
One things thats great is how the game is super chill like 95% of the time but when shit happens the music gets super tense and you're like scrambling to make things right again haha
