Deadside News

Deadsiders, our update 0.1.10 has released and it will be installed on every server from 11:00 am till 12:00 GMT (PDT 4-5 am) , because of this they might be unavailable.

Despite the fact that this is not a major update it still contains a lot of new things.
We’ve added new locations, events and mechanics, reworked whole medicine system, improved AI of the normal bots and added new ones.

We’re doing everything we can to make Deadside give you positive emotions and new experience with every update. And we’ve got a lot more for you in future.







Helicopter crash site

New game activity: a fallen helicopter, guarded by the surviving paratroopers, who are more dangerous and aggressive than usual bots. You can get a valuable cargo as a reward if you kill them.

New locations

Lighthouses located in the South-West and North of the map.

New missions

You can find them in the agro-industrial area near the Cherny Log, military base in the north and both lighthouses.

Medicine

Character’s health will slowly regenerate now. The speed will depend on the levels of thirst and hunger. If at least one of the parameters is red health will not regenerate. If one of them is yellow health will regenerate, but slower.

New items

- Painkillers, heals you quickly, but will also decrease your thirst
- Med-X will restore significant amount of your health, but your thirst and hunger will also decrease greatly.
Both of these items you can find in the world, get as a reward for different missions and Med-X you can also craft yourself if you find necessary components.
Pay attention, that if your hunger and thirst decrease to 0 then all kind of healing will be impossible.



Equipment crafting

Radios, flashlights and electronic locks will now appear less in the world, but you will be able to craft them yourself with electronic components, spare parts and other items. In one of the upcoming updates we will add more very useful craft options.

We want to highlight that agrarian industrial zone will be added to the game in the next update which we’ll be released on Hallow’s Eve.

Also, we draw your attention, that in addition to the new visual content for locations we’re developing new useful features for the game mechanics 😉

Follow the news!

Hello Deadsiders, in the upcoming patches there are a number of changes waiting for you, which aimed to enhance the gameplay and different graphical content for locations.
Some of the changes are inextricably linked to each other which means that they will be comprehensively implemented in the game.

The necessity of such approach leads to the increase in both amount of work and timeline.
Also, together with the addition of bunkers to the game, which we mentioned earlier, we are going to change and enhance system of a loot distribution – it will become more complex and interesting. But we will reveal the details later.
