DDoD News

[p]We’re currently working on Craft Tables - places where the resources you gather during your runs can be turned into something genuinely useful.
[/p][carousel][/carousel][p]The goal is to make scavenging more meaningful: instead of collecting items with no clear purpose, you’ll be able to bring materials back and use them to craft attachments and upgrades for your equipment.[/p][p]That means every trip into the world can pay off in more ways than one. The more carefully you explore and the more resources you manage to bring back, the more options you’ll have when preparing for the next run.[/p][p][/p][p]This feature is still a work in progress, but we’re excited about the extra layer of progression and preparation it adds. More reasons to loot, more reasons to plan ahead, and more ways to improve your loadout over time.[/p][p][/p][p]What kinds of attachments would you like to see first?
