Hello everyone.
Here is a small (but still chunky) update that adds some new features, plus a dozen or more fixes.
New maps:
Jah-Gohs Camp
The tower
These new searchable locations will allow the player to travel to one new friendly location, and one hostile location. More work needs to be done for these two maps, however implementing them now helps me get an idea on how to further tweak and adjust some aspects. Expect an update in a couple of weeks addressing this.
Once discovered, the Jah-Goh camp will be used as a small hub for the player to buy items from a marketplace that will be implemented soon. You’ll be able to buy new weapons, ammo, and blueprints, along with the ability to make new friends and find new opportunities for your safezone.
The tower is an old radio relay that is now under control of bandits. Again, in a later update, this location will prove to be a challenge to climb your way to the top. Waiting for you up above is a small boss fight with a nasty bandit leader, with his own exclusive mini gun. You’ll be able to loot some special rewards in his small hut once defeated.
New building blueprints:
The sniper tower
This will be available to build after the conclusion of mission 5. You can find it next to the campfire. Once obtained, you can then build this new building parallel to the watch tower.
Generator In the newly added radio tower, you'll be able to find a generator that can be build under you watch tower. For now, this doesn't have any fuction to your base, more will be added onto that later.
New DLC:
Supporter pack 4!
This new skins DLC will allow you to outfit your weapons with the new “Marauders” skin, along with a pink laser for the appropriate attachment, and a matching pink fireplace for your camp.
Check it out here, with a 40% off for the first week to go with the massive autumn sale.
Search function:
In this new build, you’ll be able to search (press the 4 key) anywhere you want without need to be in the tower. Most of the time, you’ll find nothing interesting, but in some key locations, you’ll be able to see unique text that is available for that specific location to help flesh out the world you’re in. More will be added later.
Lvl 2 tent:
Upgrading the tent to level 2 will allow you to change the anomalies outfit colours. Including its default black outfit, you’ll be able to choose from 5 different options at any time to give the Hood a more personal touch.
Other additions and fixes:
Tweaked the starting tutorial by adding quicker Screamers, along with a stormy atmosphere.
Some fixes to existing missions.
Added a new "paper" background for the pause menu.
Added more tree stumps in the safezone location.
Fixed a jarring sound effect when chopping wood.
Added more lootable locations to the world.
Added new enemy spawns in the world.
Added a protective fence around the bandit camp along with a blueprint to allow the player to upgrade their lvl 1 fence.
More bandits drop ammo when killed.
Bandits now do more damage and are more accurate.
Fixed a map menu glitch that made the character rapidly switch weapons while zooming in and out of the map.
Tightened bandit aim and damage.
Probably some more bugs that I’ll take care of later.
That’s all for now. Have a pleasant weekend. Here is a little thank you postcard from our playable wasteland pals, to those who have supported this game by leaving thumbs up, saying nice things about the project, and buy purchasing the DLCs.
