A Look At The Marshlands Update
Ahoy mateys!
Today I wanted to give you a preview of what's to come in the next patch we are calling The Marshland Update. We expect this update to be out within the next few weeks and can't wait for you to try out the new content.
Also, today we've pushed a new update to the beta branch which includes some save changes to hopefully address issues with the game rarely not loading a save, balancing changes, and visual changes to some islands to make them more distinct from one another. That update will be out soon but if you want to test it or read the patch notes, you can do so here.
Here's a look at what's coming in The Marshlands Update.
[h2]Brand New Island: The Marshlands[/h2]
In our next update we're introducing a new island complete with new atmosphere, points of interest, loot, and enemies. Just in time for Halloween, you'll be able to occasionally come across a foggy island out at sea called The Marshlands. This island has low visibility and is crawling with spiders and skeletons. Rumor also has it a rare enemy known as The Spider Queen can be found wandering these islands.
With this island type will also come new dungeons, quest, loot, and resources. If you've played Salt 1, you'll be happy to see the return of the Moonrock Ore Vein out in the wild. This rare ore glows under the moonlight and provides moonrock as a resource. We've added new recipes in this update for weapons and other items that can be crafted with moonrock.
[h2]New island Visuals[/h2]
Another new change we have made is adjusted the visuals of some islands already in the game. We've changed the color palette and terrain formation of pirate islands to make them a bit different from natural islands. We've also made Seaport islands more open and flat, and large islands are now much more mountainous with high peaks and valleys.
We'll have more info soon on when you expect this update to be out. Thanks for reading!
