Update 0.13.0.0 - Speed & Silence

[p]Welcome back to Strayed, survivors.[/p][p]Update 0.13.0.0 brings new ways to move fast, strike quiet and stay alive.[/p][p][/p]
ATV Vehicle
[p]Tear across the island on the all new ATV vehicle! With room for two and a lightweight frame built for rough terrain, it's perfect for quick loot runs, daring escapes or chasing down your enemies before they even hear you coming. You can find the ATV on the road that circles the map.[/p][p][/p][p]ATVs will slowly decay over time, however, storing your ATV within the radius of a Resource Container will slow its decay rate by half. It can also be repaired with a blueprint.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Suppressors
[p]Silence your shots with the new Scrap and Military Suppressors. Whether you're stalking your next target from the shadows or taking sneaky pot-shots at a distance, these attachments let you stay off the radar and out of trouble[/p][p]The Suppressors reduce the distance that your gunshots can be heard from at the cost of Damage and Suppressor Durability.[/p][p][/p]
Beds
[p]Lay claim to your home with the new Bed[/p][p]A more efficient but expensive alternative to the sleeping bag. The Bed has a respawn timer twice as fast as a regular sleeping bag - 120 seconds.[/p][p][/p]

Update 0.12.0.0 - Forged in Flame

[p]Welcome back to Strayed, survivors! Update 0.12.0.0 is here, bringing tougher bases, refined resources and one of our most powerful weapons yet, as well as some new features and highly requested additions to offline mode.[/p][p][/p]
Armored Base Pieces!
[p]A new tier of base piece is now available. Stronger, heavier, and built to withstand the harshest raids, the armored base pieces are twice as strong as metal with 2000 health![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Metal Refinery!
[p]The Metal Refinery is your means of turning metal fragments into beautiful, shiny Refined Metal. [/p][p][/p][p]Put wood into the fuel column and metal fragments into the out column. When you turn on the refinery, you'll see some of the fuel slots light up orange - this is the fuel level. Over time, the fuel level will jump upwards or downwards, and you'll have to update the amount of wood to match it (Hint - watch the arrow on the left side of the fuel column).[/p][p][/p][p]By matching the fuel level with wood you can maintain the highest yield of refined metal; 80%. Some of your metal fragments will turn into waste - Slag - you can control the amount of slag produced by maintaining the proper fuel level. [/p][p][/p][p]If you end up with more slag on your hands than planned, no worries; slag can be re-melted into metal fragments in a furnace. [/p][p][/p][p]If this complicated refinery jargon is going over your Strayer-head, just simply follow the Add/Remove Wood warnings inside the UI panel to maintain a high yield. Happy refining![/p][p]
[/p]
The Improvised LMG (ILMG)
[p]Rain down bullets with the newest addition to Strayed’s arsenal: a heavy-hitting, high-recoil light machine gun.[/p][p][/p][p]The ILMG holds an impressive 90 rounds of rifle ammo in it's fuel-canister drum. You can try to spray the whole thing at once, but you'll quickly notice this gun's unique vertical climb recoil. The longer you shoot, the higher the barrel goes. This one will take some practice![/p][p][/p]
Offline Mode Explosives!
[p]Test the strength of your base designs in offline mode! C4, Rockets and Rocket Launcher have been added to the offline spawn menu.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Mag Slap!
[p]You can now use a magazine to slap empty mags out of some guns. Your reloads just got a whole lot more satisfying, Strayer![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Last Death Marker!
[p]Your previous death location now shows on the map, letting you navigate easily to recover your lost items, if they have not already been taken.[/p][p][/p]
Bag Timer Migration!
[p]Sleeping bags within 60 meters of each other will now share a timer, preventing players from respawning in the same area too frequently. When placing a bag, you'll now notice the bag ghost will turn yellow when within sharing range of another bag.[/p][p][/p]
New Skins!
[p]Break the system with the new 404 Not Found Skin Pack! This pack features three wireframe-style skins: White, Black and Textured for three favorite weapons. These skins make every shot look like a dev tool gone rogue. [/p][p]These skins are available on:[/p]
  • [p]AK[/p]

[p]The metal hatch door adds a new layer of protection for your base for those who need an upgrade over its wooden counterpart.[/p][p][/p][p]It offers the same amount of protection as your normal metal doors, but only costs 400 metal fragments![/p][p][/p]
Touched Up Base Pieces

New Firepower!
[p]Introducing the Homemade Pistol, a low tier, short range gun designed to be a cost effective solution to your trigger happy needs in the early game of Strayed. [/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Deadly Office Supplies!
[p]The Staple Gun is a weapon to bridge the gap between melee weapons and guns. It may not pack much of a punch, but it’s better than nothing![/p][p][/p][p]The staple gun and its corresponding staples can be crafted by default with a workbench. Nothing to research here![/p][p][/p][p][/p]
New Sharp Stuff!
[p]Since Strayed was released into early access, the only weapons Strayers had to swing at each other were tools and two bats. This changes today with the addition of four new melee weapons! All of these weapons can be used for combat, smacking barrels, or even some eco-raiding.[/p]
  • [p]Machete[/p]
  • [p]Sword[/p]
  • [p]Combat knife[/p]
  • [p]Wooden spear
    [/p]
[p][/p]
Machete

Combat Knife

Wooden Spear
[p]The most basic weapon of them all. Essentially just a pointy stick. The ultimate early wipe self-defense.[/p][p][/p][p][/p]
Offline Mode
[p]Strayers everywhere have been looking forward to this feature... Offline Mode! Design your base, refine your aim, or practice your flying skills at no risk on your own private island. [/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]The new offline mode features a spawn menu, allowing players to spawn any weapon, tool, or deployable they want - including helicopters! Your builds will even save themselves automatically, meaning you can come back whenever you like to continue your creation. [/p][p][/p][p]Oh and by the way - You can fly here! Take advantage of your new superpowers by holding both grips and pressing the jump button.[/p][p][/p][p]Do keep in mind Strayer: Offline mode is currently in beta and there are still unsupported features and bugs.

Update 0.9.0.0 - Loadouts & Landscapes

Welcome back to Strayed, survivors. Update 0.9.0.0 brings some shiny new Gun Models, some well needed improvements to Terrain Generation and a bunch of Bug Fixes!

New Gun Models!

A handful of your beloved and trusty firearms have received a fresh coat of paint. We’ve completely reworked the M4, Semi Auto Rifle, SMG and Military Pistol.

Reworks for the AK and F8 have been delayed and will be featured in a smaller patch coming soon. We want to make sure that these models are the best they possibly can be, and that means not rushing the art team!

While (most of) the weapon stats have not been changed, the overall look of the guns has been completely rebuilt from the ground up.

M4

The M4 will be replacing the M16. The M16 has been swapped out for a shorter, more compact carbine, the M4!



Semi Auto Rifle

The Semi Auto Rifle will be replacing the M1 Garand. This Semi Rifle has a higher ammo capacity compared to its retired counterpart.



SMG

The SMG needs no introduction, it's infamous for having some of the worst iron sights in Strayed, but today, that has been rectified! This new short range beast has been delicately crafted with the finest of junk and scrap metal. It also boasts a new recoil profile.



Military Pistol

The Military Pistol has been remade with a solid, modernized design. Like the SMG, the Military Pistol has a new recoil profile while keeping the accuracy and glow sights the gun is well known for.



Terrain Generation Improvements!

The terrain in Strayed is one part of the game that hasn’t been touched much since release; But that changes today! We’ve added a brand new Terrain Generation System, Lakes, “Bays” and Improved Road Generation!

New Terrain - Ready to be explored!








Lakes & Bays - Care for a dip?










More terrain improvements will be coming in future updates, including new landscape features such as cliffs and bushes. We also have all new environment art on the way, so be prepared for some change around here!
