Wild Terra 2: New Lands News

Deep profiling of the server was done and many bottlenecks were fixed based on the received data. Client performance has also been improved (most noticeable on High and Normal graphics settings).

We will continue to monitor the situation and improve the stability of the game, this is a top priority for us!

[h3]Changelog. Update 2.0.266[/h3]

Server and client optimization
- Significantly optimized several bottlenecks identified during real server profiling.
- Optimized some textures.
- Very low quality settings now use even less memory.
- High and Normal settings no longer use shadow cascades.
- Reduced GPU instancing for some buildings and spawn objects.
- Disabled processing of shadows on small and low spawn objects and buildings, as well as projectiles.

Improvements and fixes
- The number of dungeons that can be created at the same time is doubled.
- Fixed a critical error due to which, if you exit the game before the grave appears, or without pressing the Resurrect button, the character was not sent to the save point, he appeared near the place of death.
- Fixed a bug due to which it was sometimes possible to gather one resource at the same time by several players.
- Fixed a bug due to which it was impossible to open a grave with a loot of a killed character until he pressed the Rebirth button.
- Fixed the effect of wind on the grass, the settings of which got lost in the last update.

Fixed a bug that in some cases led to the disappearance of items when working with warehouses. All lost items have been restored. Small client optimization improvements that will raise a bit FPS.

We apologize for the overflowing inventory, but this was the only way to restore items so quickly.

[h3]Hotfix 2.0.265
[/h3]
- Fixed a bug that sometimes caused items to disappear when working with warehouses.
- Now, even with empty satiety, stamina will gradually recover in order to eliminate the situation when the hungry one could not collect food for himself, because stamina is also spent on collecting food.
- Optimized synchronization of some components on the client.
- Minor optimization of post-processing.

We are continuing to work on correcting lag under increased load to give you the better experience as soon as possible. In this patch, additional work was done to optimize the server and introduced tools for more in-depth diagnostics.

We will monitor the situation and in the next 2 days we plan to release another update that improves optimization.

Thank you for your patience and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Please note that the game is still under development. At the moment, added only basic mechanics, and a small area is available. The game is now only a tiny part of all the content that we would like to add. But now, you can not only try out the game but also participate in its development: suggest something new, discuss the existing one, report problems and errors.

Many thanks to everyone who helps the development of the game and supports us! We are delighted that Wild Terra 2 has such a great community! Thanks to you, the game has been translated into 12 languages already at the launch of Early Access.

Currently running servers:
- NA-West NEW!
- NA-East
- Europe #1
- Europe #2
- South America
- Asia Pacific
- Australia
- NEW server for Russia!

There will be no wipes in Early Access! We've fixed a lag issue, critical problems with progress save, and fix the latest vulnerabilities found (we will deal with the consequences, and violators will be punished).

Unique reward packs of the Merchant, King, Master of the World, and a Home decoration pack, will be available for several more weeks so that you can get more rewards!
