Pathea Games took to Steam to explain how the developer will handle My Time at Sandrock loading time and character story issues brought up by players. In each case, the team is working on updates to fix problems and add more content to the game.
In the case of the My Time at Sandrock loading times, Pathea noted that changes were already applied to consoles and PCs. The example offered on steam noted PC HDD loading times are now about 70 seconds long, as opposed to the previous 120 second loads. It also noted people who have been playing longer will see the most difference.
As for the My Time at Sandrock character story quests, the team announced more are on the way. It specifically cited more endgame ones tied to love interests that will be available after marriage. It also noted an upcoming update will have two Owen questlines.
The last part of the update had to do with lighting visual effects that affected the way some people and locations looked. It blamed the move from build-in pipeline to universal render pipeline during the porting process and is handling location issues one-by-one. As for the characters, it noted it will adjust facial shadows to create “fewer random shadows.”
Since its launch in November 2023, a number of My Time at Sandrock updates appeared addressing concerns. Multiple patches appeared on consoles and PCs at the end of last year. The 1.2.0 update also added more post-marriage quests and weapons.
My Time at Sandrock is available now for the PS5, Switch, PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
