It’s another small patch as our office is hard at work preparing for our next major update. We hope you all are enjoying your Summers (or Winters if you’re in the Southern Hemisphere).
This patch contains a modification to the lobby’s server menu, as well as some other small bug fixes.

Please remember to take a short break every once in a while to stand up, stretch, and maybe look out of your window at something far away for 30 seconds.




Showing the number of players on a server could be abused to determine if bases on a server are empty. That’s why we’ve decided to remove the exact number of people online at a specific time, and replace it with the “Population” state. This way it’s best for pvp players so they can always have the expectation that someone is in the base they’re about to loot.




In case some of you don’t already know, we update the contents of the transmitter store each week during our regular maintenance. Here are the six new items available for purchase this week in the transmitter!

The four armor pieces below will be available, as well as an Energy Machine Gun GPMG42 (The one that spins and shoots lasers), and also a Stealth Disruptor Protocol.






🔹 Custom Servers: Added ability to easily adjust Forge settings in the World Settings.

🔹 Fixed the issue where Extended Magazine could not be transmitted using the Transmitter.

🔹 Fixed text error regarding Titanica Boots [Ivory]

🔹 Fixed issue where housing installations such as doors and windows couldn't be placed in specific areas

- Fixed issue where vehicles aren't moving smoothly.

This weekend, all of our servers will have another ‘BIONIC BOOST’ event!! It will be active for 48 hours from midnight on Friday, June 23rd (PST) to midnight on Sunday, June 25th.

Your cybernetic arm will receive a temporary augmentation, increasing your ability to gather resources.

Official servers will receive two separate boosts this weekend:
[h2]2x gathering boost:[/h2]
Excluding special items like keys, all gathering will be doubled over the weekend. This includes terrasite, stone, and metal, as well as all containers and NPCs around Ararat Island.

[h2]2x forge speed:[/h2]
All forgeable items will be processed at twice their normal speed.

This week’s patch is small because we’re prepping for something big. We’ll be announcing it in the next week or two, so keep your eyes on our announcements!



We added a new dodge to a portion of Hyena and Orbis mobs where they will dodge when you look down your sights at them.


There were a few cases recently of a bug where players were unable to build on a random spot for no clear reason. We fixed the error.


🔹 Changed the death recap screen so it shows attacks separately.

🔹 Made some edits to daily missions.

🔹 Players were unable to make a vehicle if grass was popping through the top of their vehicle workshop.

[h2]2x damage boost to mobs:[/h2]
Any damage to mobs will be multiplied by 2 (orbis robots, hyena soldiers, bears, elk, and even facility bosses!). Mobs will only incur 1x damage to you and your friends, so this is the perfect time to go out there and take on whatever enemy you've been having trouble with!
