Hey everyone,
It's been a month since launch, and we're back with our 5th patch — and this one is kind of special as its a first Major Update for Project Mist.
This update introduces some really cool features including the new Night Raid system, Fast Travel, new weapons, expanded building options, combat improvements, as well as numerous fixes and optimizations based on your feedback.
Our goal is to keep improving the game every 1–2 weeks while also delivering meaningful major updates every 4-6 weeks, and this patch is the first bigger step in that direction.
We also haven't forgotten about the roadmap. We're currently putting the finishing touches on it and expect to share it with you next week but you can already see a little sneak peak for next 2-3 months ;)
In the meantime, we hope you enjoy all the new features and improvements. Thank you for your continued support and feedback!
New Features & Improvements
Night Raids
Every night after 22:00, improved types of enemies with glowing red eyes begins to appear.
These enemies are more aggressive and drop better loot than regular versions.
Night Raid enemies become stronger with each passing night.
Players can avoid Night Raids entirely by:
Sleeping through the night in safe spots.
Staying on the train, which remains a safe zone.
Please note that thanks to the new Fast Travel system, you can now build bases anywhere on the map and quickly return to them whenever you want. That way you can either expand your train base and play it safe or challange yourself to try to survive in the wilderness.
Please note that this is just a first version of night raids and we are already working on new night raid features for upcoming patches.
