Dysterra News

How did all of you enjoy our Blitz Mode event last weekend? Our team came together to play with you all, and we had a blast running into so many players and seeing you all enjoying the new content.

In this week's update, we're bringing more terrasite transmitters to the game to encourage their usage. We've also increased the drop rate of bolts and stone to make building easier and more efficient. In addition, the cost of bolts to repair all level 1 base parts has been removed. Keep reading for further details.

[h2]Update Maintenance Time:[/h2]
Thursday, April 20th
(PST) 00:00-02:00
(CET) 09:00-11:00
(KST) 16:00-18:00





In order to encourage the use of Terrasite Transmitters, we will replace the existing solar street lights with terrasite transmitters. You won’t have to fight with Hyena soldiers every time you want to buy something now.





We have added new items to the Terrasite Transmitter store. You can now purchase bolts for 15 pts each, motors for 25 pts, wires for 25 pts, sensors for 25 pts, and Lv.1 battery packs for 100 pts.




Players should now be able to switch to an empty hand when changing weapons while using the mouse wheel.





Due to the addition of new roof building parts that will require more bolts, we will be increasing the drop rate of bolts by 10-15% for the following containers:


🔹 Fine Scrap Bin
🔹 Fine Toolbox
🔹 Fine Trash Compactor
🔹 Rusty Boat
🔹 Radiator
🔹 Trash Bags
🔹 Metal Separator
🔹 Junction Box
🔹 Transport Box
🔹 Trash Compactor





We’ll be adding a new, angled roof to the game soon. In order to accommodate the addition of new roof building parts, we will be increasing the drop rate of stone by 30% for a number of items that includes stone and metal nodes, building debris, and terrapods.

No More Screw Removal Costs for Level 1 Building Parts 🔩
We have removed the cost of bolts to repair all level 1 base parts.




🔹 We’ve polished the animation for the Buggy Android when it spots a player.

🔹 We’ve fixed some issues with a couple of doors around the map.

🔹 When running a custom server, new log entries will now be added for connection failures, connection successes, anonymous logins, GSLT logins, save file loading, and dedicated server readiness.




This update contains several bug fixes for the game. Listed below are the details of the fixes included in this patch.

[h3]Gamepad 🎮[/h3]
🔹 Fixed tooltip key guide error when opening inventory for the first time with a gamepad.

[h3]Building 🏗️[/h3]
🔹 Fixed some issues where people were building where they shouldn’t be able to.

[h3]Explosive Ammo 💥[/h3]
🔹 Modified damage logic so that TFT-K7 is able to deal damage to shields as well.
🔹 Modified explosive damage to allow damage to be distributed to each part of the Orbis Heavy Gunner.

[h3]Facilities 🏭[/h3]
🔹 Fixed an issue during the final countdown where facility controllers were consumed but facility skills were not activated.
🔹 Fixed an issue where the facility skills were not affecting mobs.
🔹 Fixed issue with Grima getting stuck in a doorway.

[h3]Sound 🔊[/h3]
🔹 Fixed an issue where ambient sound volume changed in single-player mode depending on the player’s height on the map.
🔹 Fixed an issue with vehicle sounds where sounds were not audible to both the driver and the passenger.

For 3 nights this weekend (Fri, Sat, & Sun), we’ll be holding a one-off 2-hour event separately on the US and Europe servers. The event will happen a total of 6 times, once each evening at 6-8pm CET time on a Europe-based server, and once each evening at 6-8pm PST on a North America-based server.

This will be an exciting sprint to see who can get the most kills in 2 hours. You’ll be starting each evening with the following items:

[h3]Starting Inventory: [/h3]

• Crafting Bench
  
• Building Core
  
• bandages x 50
  
• light ammo x 500
  
• AR TAR-1A
  
• Stone x 300
  
• Bolts x 300
  

Once you’ve built a basic shelter, you’ll want to head to the Alpha region to pick up your own proto-juggernaut(like in the Delta Plant) that we’ve spawned near a couple of the Alpha-Region hyena and orbis bases.

[h2]Or![/h2] You can search the map for one of the 10 special chests we’ve prepared. Getting one of these chests will definitely help you get a few more kills.

[h3]In each chest is the following:[/h3]

• 1 Legendary Gun
  
• 2 Legendary pieces of armor
  
• 1 Legendary protocol
  

You’ll be ready to raid bases sooner than you’d expect! We’ve adjusted the following settings to make gathering and looting faster:
[h2]Gathering Rate: 7x
Housing Damage: 10x[/h2]



April 15 - April 17 (3 days: Friday, Saturday, Sunday)

America Server
6 pm - 8 pm Pacific Time
(9 pm - 11 pm Eastern Time)

Europe Server
6 pm - 8 pm CET

[h3]Greetings from Orbis![/h3]

We’re back this week with our 0.3.1 patch! A lot of this patch is trying to fix the bugs you all found over the weekend. 🙏 We’re also adding bits of code to prepare for this weekend’s special server event! Blitz Mode is going to be an exciting time for everyone involved, so be sure to follow the link in the Blitz Mode section below to learn all about it.

[h3]Update Maintenance Time:[/h3]
PDT: Apr 12th, 00:00-02:00
CEST: Apr 12th, 09:00-11:00
KST: Apr 12th, 16:00-18:00




We’re opening a one-off event server!

This will be a fast-paced, 2-hour race to see who can rank the highest! We’ll be placing proto-juggernauts around the map, and hiding special chests with legendary loot. We’re also changing the game rules to make looting much faster so people aren’t caught hoarding items. Don’t miss this chance to enjoy Dysterra in a new and exciting way.

For those of you participating in the Blitz Mode event, there will be 10 Camo Storage Bags hidden around the map with legendary loot inside..

Each bag will have the following inside:

• ⚡️ 1 legendary gun
  
• ⚡️ 2 legendary pieces of armor
  
• ⚡️ 1 legendary protocol
  

The goal of miners was to reduce your time mining, but it seems we set their initial energy consumption rates too high to make them worth the effort. We halved the rates from 500 to 250, so hopefully they’ll be a much more valuable asset for players.
