Greetings Hunters!

Ever wondered, which is the best faction in ZERO Sievert? Which faction should I actually join?

No worries, we've got you covered because Oscar Mikey is back again this week to guide us through the treacherous wasteland once more. This week's video focuses on the Green Army and the Crimson Corporation. There have been quite a few new hunters lately, so this is the perfect video to dive into to learn more about these two factions in ZERO Sievert, how they differ and what they can offer you in exchange for your loyalty.

• Player is not irradiated by radioactive rain - The radioactive rain should now register on the PDA and affect the player.
  
• Future weather forecasting was not displaying correct weather changes - The weather station kit should now display accurate weather changes and times of those changes when talking to the Conductor.
  
• Text is being skipped in main menu news feed - Text found in the original post should now be present in the news feed.
  
• Picture stretch occurs with black bars when playing on a 21:9 monitor - Game screen shouldn't stretch across the horizontal axis anymore.
  
• Rainy weather persists in bunker after long sleep - The weather should now change to match the PDA no matter how long the player sleeps
  
• Players can get stuck spinning around the crystal if it's approached from certain angles - Players should no longer get stuck in a cutscene when approaching it from certain angles.
  

Thank you for all your support and happy hunting!

[h3]Hunters, brace yourselves[/h3]
Zakov just got a whole lot more unpredictable! We’re excited to introduce our latest update 1.0.16, which brings a dynamic weather system, seasons, and a new survival mechanic to the game!




🌍 New Weather System Snow is Back for Good! ❄️ No more waiting—Zakov’s harsh winters are here to stay.
Seasons in the Wasteland: Every two in-game weeks now represents a full year, bringing changing temperatures and climates to every raid location.
Real-Time Weather Updates: Weather conditions shift every 3 in-game hours, affecting temperature, visibility, and survival strategies.

🛠️ New Survival Tool & Visual Enhancements Weather Kit: You can now craft a Weather Kit to monitor temperature on your PDA and check the next 6 hours of weather at each location before heading out.
Enhanced Weather Effects: We’ve added new shaders to bring in greater immersion - for example, rainy days now appear desaturated and dimly lit for a truly moody atmosphere. We’ve also added a toggle setting to disable the new color gradient overlay for extra accessibility and customisation.

🔥 Other Improvements Hunter & Gun Skills Notification: A new PDA icon alerts you when you have unspent skill points - never forget to utilise your points again!

Alongside these new features we’ve also been working on some bug fixes which we know have been troubling many of you!

• Steam Cloud saving is fixed (new check with communicating with Steam)
  
• Inventory sorting fixes to prevent icon overlaps
  
• Inventory auto-sort and rotation fixes
  
• More fixes implemented towards blue void issue
  
• Player is now able to sell Santa’s backpack
  
• Immortality Hunter Skill does not occupy a Tier-1 skill slot, allowing full roster of skills to be acquired
  

Thank you as always to everyone who has been reporting issues to us over on our Discord server! Now get out there, prepare for the unpredictable, adapt to the elements, and stay sharp Hunters! 🌧️🌨️🌤️
