Hey Hurtworldians!
Tonight we've got a new experimental patch wipe cycle that adds weather events, replaces the starting beach with a new tropical look and rebalances the gear progression to encourage a longer farming period before pushing into the snow and red desert biomes.
We've also got a few bugfixes, most importantly fixing the regression in hitboxes / hit detection introduced in the 0.6.0.3 hotfix and also making servers less vulnerable to DDoS attacks which unfortunately have been an issue recently.
As always the 'oldversion' steam branch will contain the patch prior to this one(0.6.0.3) so you can continue to play on community servers that haven't gotten around to updating yet.
Good luck out there!
