Zombie Survival Game Online News

PATCH NOTES 0.4.3

Happy Thanksgiving you guys! 🦃 🦃 🦃 🦃 🦃 🦃 🦃 🦃 🦃
We are excited to bring you some updates to kick off the holidays.
There are a few issues that we will need to work out. That's the name of the game though.
Bare with us survivors! And remember, your ⁠🦟│bug-reports are extremely helpful.

Zombies and AI Mechanics 🧟‍♂️🤖:
-Added 30-second cooldown for zombie spawn points ⏲️.
-Improved zombie removal from spawn manager post-player kills 💥. (Part of cause for no zombies on servers)
-Effect for zombies spawning added ✨.
-Enhanced AI spawning to prevent mid-air falls 🚫🌌.
-Temporary fix to reduce zombies falling through the map 🕳️.

User Interface and Experience 🖥️👀:
-Updated pause menu with new main level map 🗺️.
-Loading indicator shows during save progress, with a notification upon completion and save status 💾.
-Modified server browser menu to combine dedicated and listen server listings 🔍.
-Added road names to map and level 🛣️.

Gameplay and Mechanics 🎮🛠️:
-Ladders will lead to far less deaths!
-Fixed sprint function bug when key binding is changed ⚡.
-Fixed a bug where the time change wasn't activating on clients, affecting automatic lights and foliage emissive changes between day and night 🌞🌙.
-Resolved issue with save list not updating immediately after creating a new save 🔄.
-Attempted to fix player stash widget initialization issue, pending further testing 🧪.
-Resolved saving issues with build parts on dedicated servers 🏗️.
-Adjusted first-person hand animations for running, walking, and breathing to better match footsteps 👣.
-Fixed bug where some guns had higher movement speeds than the default 🏃‍♂️💨.
-Removed 'sonic mode' feature 🚫🔊.
-Container loot NERFED TO THE GROUND!!! 📉💥
-Item weight rebalance (nerfed to the ground) ⚖️.
-More Stone nodes.
-Many collisions were fixed 🔧.
-Adjusted weight of some items ⚖️.
-General consumable, resource, weapon loot nerfs 🍽️🔫.
-Crafting tweaks and increases the rarity of keycards 🔑.
-Taint transformer pickup fixed 🛠️.

Market and Resources 🏪📈:
-Added stone to market 🪨➕.
-Mineable resources used to make C4 are no longer in the market 🚫💣.

Pointers:
Zombies may be a little weird with spawning on servers. We are looking into it more but it may work good for some.
Dedicated servers also seem to be going offline when certain players disconnect. We will be sure to have them running as much as possible, however if there are too many clients causing this issue on disconnect then we will most likely leave them down until we have a solution.

Thank you to everyone who helped out with bug reports.
Any posts in ⁠🦟│bug-reports is absolutely huge for us!!!

See you out there survivors!

Survivors,

Despite our best efforts and preparations for a November 17th release, ZSGO’s early access release build has been under review by Steam for over three weeks now. Steamworks guidelines that this review should only take 2-3 business days. However, we were informed that our review will take some additional time. This extended period of review comes without any ETA on approval from Steam.

We want to assure you that this is not an issue with ZSGO itself, but rather an unexpected delay in Steam's review process. Our team has been reaching out to Steam to resolve this issue and we are waiting to hear back. We will update you when we receive word from Steam Support and will post an announcement of the revised release date as soon as our build is approved. We appreciate your patience and support during this time.

Please follow the announcements channel in Discord for the latest updates.

For those that are curious:
An automated test regarding controller support failed for not being able to access the quick menu items. We sent them instructions on how to access this menu and Steam passed the controller support portion, but they are still reviewing other content in the game.

Thank you,

TeamZSGO
