Gave it a whirl. Basically, you can now scrap ships to get their components to create a new ship inside any station. Couldn't find any merchant within the station selling pieces, so you have to go out and explore, or scrap some of your own ships.
Stations now look slightly different from one another and no longer have those semi-hidden rooms that nobody cared about. Alien vendors now give a discount if you're at a good standing with their race. Guild "vendors" offer a list of stuff for free, but I don't get why the prompt is red instead of white. Performance is still mostly CPU bound.
Overall decent update, but the new features don't warrant playing more than 1 hour.
