Hi everyone, the latest patch for the Online Co-op beta test is now out. Here's the change log:
- Added Steam Voice Chat (hold ALT to talk, by default)
- Changed quest marker to be settable per-player in online co-op instead of the same for all players
- Upgraded to Steamworks SDK 1.34
- Possible fix for Out of Sync error
- Fixed footstep sound not playing sometimes
- Fixed issue where characters in your community would dislike you for
- threatening looters
- Fixed some errors when two players join or leave at the same time
- Fixed bug where 'There's too many of them out there' awardment was not awarded if you abandoned then re-occupied your bunker.
- Incomplete German translation
If you haven't tried the beta test yet, you can test it by doing the following:
- Right-click on Survivalist in your Steam library and click Properties
- Go to the Betas tab
- Select publicbeta on the drop-down where it asks you what beta you want to opt in to
- PLEASE NOTE: any savegames you make with this branch will not be compatible if you switch back to the main branch. So don't overwrite anything that's important to you!
If you find any problems, let me know! You can post a reply to this news post or email me or post in the forums.
EDIT - reverted for now as it was crashing for some people. You can play the latest version in a new branch called publicbeta_unstable for now.
