Hotfix 1262 | Combat Tutorial Improvements

Hello, survivors!

First of all, a huge thanks to all of you for the enormous support on our Early Access release! The last two days were filled with utter excitement about how many of you appreciate the adventure we made for you.

One of the main issues from the feedback we gathered, is the combat tutorial with that nasty and elusive beast. We also feel that it needs reworking. We've just released a hotfix with updated tutorial quest steps and a new tutorial pop-up to better explain the mechanics of block and a blocking hit. Let this short-eared dog immediately learn its place!

Moreover, we’ve started working on more significant changes to the whole combat system and we’ll try to implement them as soon as possible so that these fighting mechanics don’t feel as confusing.

Today’s hotfix also addresses some minor localization issues.

We’ve already made quite a number of bug fixes, tweaks, and overall improvements to be included in the next (and much bigger!) patch that is planned for the next week.

Thank you again for your numerous and thorough feedback! It will help us make the game more enjoyable for you and other players to come.

Hello, survivors!

It starts with a primitive bed of leaves and a small campfire to restore your health and energy after a shipwreck. Then you make a box of branches so that all your green coconuts are stored there and not just lie messily on the ground. Then you make a regular workbench because you'll need it to craft better tools and equipment. And, of course, you'll need a carpentry workbench. And a water collector. And a skin dryer. And a big three-story mansion with terraces, animal hides and trophies on the walls, and a comfortable bed with a mattress. Just can't survive without it!



Remember that you'll be able to put your hands on Survival: Fountain of Youth with about a hundred of various craft blueprints in just two days!

Hello, survivors!

The world you'll plunge into will be full of sand beaches, coconut palms and intimidating birds. Moreover, you'll be able to find colorful rock paintings, giant stone heads and other signs of some ancient tribes living on these islands a long time ago.



Be sure to check these paintings to collect all the chronicles, get perk points, find valuable loot and to learn the important parts of the Bimini civilization story! It’s as entertaining as any popular 21st century TV show!
