Content Update: Hard Maps - OUT NOW
[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]
A thick layer of ice is melting, uncovering lush terrains full of unique vegetation and strange wildlife. Are you prepared to risk your life and possessions for a chance to craft rare Tablets, harvest some cotton or explore ancient ruins?
With a new type of oasis, there are many new dangers and opportunities waiting to be discovered. Make sure you’re ready for it, as there are new monsters lurking around and many dangerous pirates will surely try to be the first to rob the new lands off of their resources.
Hard difficulty oases will be of interest to anyone who wants to unlock technology of higher tier - more walkers, better gear, more efficient harvesting tools, and access to territory claiming. This will finally provide long-term goals to clans, create reasons to declare wars, and encourage protecting solo players and small groups with harvesting and tax bonus mechanics.
You will also be able to find various ancient ruins and structures to explore. Some allow crafting Tablets out of fragments, some have mazes to investigate with a promise of generous rewards, and some are large old cities attracting many nomads to fight over loot. New Rupu camps and loot sites to raid can also be found in those oases.
Not all resources can be found in new oases, so travel will continue to be essential. New kinds of vegetation and rocks, however, will allow for crafting more advanced equipment and complex machines. Some sturdy foliage requires high tier tools to be harvested, so make sure to explore your tech tree and unlock required ones.
New hard maps will start appearing in the world sometime tomorrow! In addition to a new type of oases, the patch brings fixes to some of the critical issues you’ve reported.
IMPROVEMENTS
- Improved usability of World Map.
- Made kill feed only show clan kills.
- Forbid packing Rupu Slings.
FIXES
- Fixed harvesting from Phemke and Nurr.
- Fixed streamer name anonymization sometimes showing real names.
- Fixed some foliage being difficult to harvest with many interactions nearby; cactus fruit, etc.
- Fixed subtitles not displaying if two voice lines are played in sequence.
- Fixed being able to flip enemy walkers.
- Fixed incorrect height adjustment when unpacking bases.
- Fixed building key hints not updating when keybind changes.
- Fixed building key hints not displaying when unpacking.
- Fixed crash related to packing while initiating player is missing.
[h2]What’s coming next - new contents and private servers[/h2]
We’re also working on a large content patch to include many gameplay improvements and even a new type of a walker.
As we’ve been set back with private servers by the much-needed work on the backend, it’s taking a little more time than previously estimated. We’re currently optimizing the system to make sure everyone is able to host a server and enjoy the benefits of owning your own oasis.
