I suspect that the first two items are at least contributing factors to the lack of updates and clarity.

We are aware of the issues, and we are doing everything possible to ensure a steady update path that will restore the level of quality that our regular players are accustomed to. We can only ask for a little patience at this point. Unfortunately we are unable to provide a firm schedule for the next updates just yet.
Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks. I'll work through some of those and see what strikes a good balance.

The updated doc thread has the latest draft update manual. It contains all change lists up to 1328.18. I would suggest using that as a guide to decide which changes and fixes cover the issues that are most important.
For me, its one of the post .14 patches. Most likely .17. There were still mission issues, but most of them could be worked around.

Dimitris,
I would like an official version of 1328.8, if you don't mind.
I have one, but I believe that it might be a beta version, and it might not be the best 1328.8, if there is a difference.
BTW, is there a big difference between 1328.8 and 1328.9?
Thanks

In the updated draft manual, you can see the change logs for both.

1328.8 was the 64 bits and DirectX 11 official release.

And this was 1328.9. Do not remember whether there were betas or not.

Yes, the patches are deleted after some time.

I have gone back to .17 for now. There are still issues with it, but I can at least work around them without performing unnatural acts. And it has db 505, works with the upgraded scenarios, and is stable.

I also have the latest version and is unplayable for me. I took a pause until a new update comes.
As op said, to many things that don't work or they do it wrong, thus ruining the gameplay.
However I definetely see an improvement in performance. The game seems to run smoother.

Looking forward to the update.
Does anyone remember when the lasers stopped working properly by any chance?

In 1328.9 it is working, this is the HELIOS from USS McCampbell, in
The laser dance scenario.

v12 the ships are surviving, I suppose it also works

v14, the ships were lost rather early, but note this is just one test with each version.
