First live patch seems on point. Kudos.

I was hoping for a bit more (e.g. lack of quick save, performance issues, 'hold to sprint' being a toggle you can't turn off), but I'm glad they're adding an option to skip galaxy map transitions at least.
Edit: Looks like they are improving performance.

Here's the first "feedback" on a certain change:
- Decreasing the cost of remnant decryption keys and making them more accessible at merchants
Erm, those were not too expensive in the first place and are fantastic way to earn some ingame $ by solving 20 Sudoku yourself and selling looted keys - the bigger problem IMO is not being allowed to carry more than 9 of them in inventory and gather them till you unlock better prices Cryo bonus.

I was too fast, there is another thing I have to underline that will be addressed in later patches:
- Improvements to hair
Thumb up! Watching the atrocious hair in the game is so distracting it just has to be fixed.
I really really hope that
- Fixed issues related to some saves
means you fixed the infinite loading bug. Havnt been able to play since release after I lost 18 Hours because of it.
I too had the infinite loading bug. I had to kill the game through task manager and close Origin, then reload to a previously saved point. That reset me about 5 minutes but was otherwise not a huge issue.
I think that was actually around the End of Watch quest, which in retrospect, might have been the cause of the problem.
Also, I agree, quick saves should be enabled on all games. Most adults who are gamers have responsibilities that mean sometimes, one has to quit on a dime. Having to redo everything or lose everything up until a certain point is ignorant and frustrating. EA is not a newbie company; they should know better.
(I still own my original Starflight from way back and that was an EA game!)
Thanks!
