Patch 0.1.8 - Scavenger Mode and Drop Zones
[h2]New Game Mode: Scavenger[/h2][p]This game mode is designed for the most hardcore survival fans. In this mode you are a lone scavenger. You have no friends and you can not trade with well-known traders. Everybody will shoot you on sight. Only trader that will work with you is the radianite trader Kachak.[/p][p]Your only option to survive is loot and craft items with whatever you can find. You start with a random weapon and some randomized items. You might get lucky and start with good items or be very unlucky and start with very useless stuff. Your spawn location is also randomized.[/p][p]Scavenger mode also gives you randomized goals you can work towards. For instance collecting a certain amount of weapons. After collecting the required amount you can drop them in a dropzone and as a reward you will receive up to 3 random items via a drone delivery.[/p][p]Combining this mode with Ironman will be extremely hardcore. Since you can’t use the drone delivery system either, you will be having a very hard time surviving in the zone.[/p][p]Can you survive the AEZ as a true loner? Do you have what it takes?[/p][p][/p][h2]Drop Zone System & Looting[/h2][p]The "drop zone" system now works different. Burned down cars, unused wells or some other locations are now used as a drop zone instead of ovens or stoves.[/p][p]Finding generic loots in ovens or stoves also didn’t make much sense so those places will be reserved for lucky stashes instead. Meaning, you won't find a fabric or a plastic laying inside a oven anymore but you might get lucky and find a stash that was put there by other people. Like guns, cigarettes, ammo etc.[/p][p]Cabinets and fridges will be the main locations where you will find resources. Also you will be able to find resources laying around the house, on a table for instance.[/p][p]You can also find lucky stashes inside the burned down cars, pipes etc. Finding a stash inside these places will not be very common but it’s always worth checking it![/p]
- [p]Gas stove, potbelly stove and washing machine will not drop any resources anymore. They will only drop a lucky stash with a very low drop chance.[/p]
- [p]Gas stove and potbelly stove will not be used as a drop zone anymore.[/p]
