So have not really played since launch. Saw the new update and started a new game. Saw there were new cargo slots that are meant to "hold more". So when I found a drop pod, I go to buy one. The game does take my credits, yet I don't get one unlocked. I can buy one for my basic inventory fine. I have been playing for around 5ish hours. Figured it wouldn't be locked behind some quest. I did try two different times. Both times does take my money and I can't reuse the drop pod either. Basically is this some bug? I am just missing something I'm suppose to do? Anyone help would be great.

It is a known issue, I guess it will be fixed soon! There are also the green question marks which don't disappear even after discovering the place they were marking.

I have green question marks even though I've already discovered the area. In the older versions, the question marks were white to designate a previously discovered area.

Well good to know it's not just me getting this bug, hopefully it will be fixed soon.
