EVRIMA Patch 0.6.22.12
Hey Islanders,
Just so you're all aware the slow stamina regeneration encountered in the previous EVRIMA patch was not an intentional change, rather the side effect of a bugfix which we've now completely resolved. I'd also like to mention that the secret listed on our roadmap is still scheduled to be delivered in an upcoming hotfix, as we're fresh out of the weekend and have focused our efforts on resolving issues and evaluating community feedback to further improve the overall gameplay experience.
With this update comes a standardization to the hunger and thirst values. Currently, every species is set to starve after 45 minutes and dehydrate after 30 minutes. It must be made abundantly clear that these are not set in stone, as we recognise that this would make it far too easy for some of our characters to grow. This is the process that has been decided on by QA, so that we could have every species capable of surviving, while also giving the team more time to finetune each class so that their values aren't tedious to manage but also not too easy to survive on - this is a survival game after all!
[h3]We've also doubled the amount of AI present on the servers, should it result in any performance issues rest assured that we'll be swift in resolving it.
