New prologue mission
When we started SURV1V3 design we had in mind big maps fully explorable allowing players to free roam. So we spent a lot of time designing Santa Carla and optimizing the game core to support it.
Unfortunately, we immediately understood that without a tutorial the challenge would have been too big. So we designed a single-player railed tutorial. Definitely the worst part of the game but the first played by new joiners...
The new prologue is a totally different mission:
- new totally redesigned map, with many free explorable areas
- the whole mission is playable in coop!!
- Jeremy will guide you since the first step of the mission
Did you already play the old tutorial? You should play again the new one!
Voice over redo & localization
We re-recorded all Jeremy speech with a new US native voice actor (let us know if you like it!), we proofread all subtitles and totally redid Chinese translation.
Dedicated hand poses while reloading
This is something many players asked since first early access release...
As you can see from the gif below, each weapon has now a dedicated hand pose while you reload your weapon, This should add much immersion!
Cheers!
