We didn’t want to keep you waiting for a full patch, so we’re doing a small “content push” to introduce the Cobra Walker! One of the questions we got on our community question form was Do you plan on adding specialized walkers in the future?, and we think this push answers it. The Cobra Walker is not the only Walker with a specific purpose we plan on adding in the coming months!
Patch Notes
- Added Cobra Walker - a giant walking defense tower.
- Fixed Rupu Slings attacking friendly players when private.
- Fixed grappling hook collision issues on walkers.
- Updated engine to UE 4.25. Various tweaks and improvements like performance, visuals, etc. (the reason for large size).
Cobra Walker
Like a cobra poised to strike, this Walker is great for players that want a more defensive playstyle. Drive this Walker around to the perfect spot where you can hunker down to brace for combat.
During the concept phase, the Cobra had wings. When thinking about organizing its movement and positioning, we replaced the wings with torque.

Community Questions
Here are just a few from our last round of questions. PLEASE NOTE: a bigger Q&A will be included in the Community Devlog at the end of the month.
Q: Have you planned any wipe after a "massive" update soon ?
A: Stay tuned for an upcoming Community Devlog to hear more about what we have planned for the future!
Q: When can we expect a new big update?
A: We’re aiming for a large update in October!
Q: In the last round of Community Questions it kind of looked like the Giant Worm isn't going to show up until next year. Was that a typo?
A: No, it wasn’t a typo. We want it to become a meaningful and exciting part of the game that's connected to the world and other features. While we've put a lot of effort into the worm itself by now, we're planning to release a bigger worm-themed update instead of just the creature on its own.
Q: What proof do you need in regard to cheating before you act upon the individuals or groups that are cheating?
A: You need to submit video proof when you file a cheater report. You can do that here: http://feedback.lastoasis.gg/
Q: What are you doing to address the ESP issue?
A: The anti cheat team and our engineers are still looking for a solid solution against it. Cheaters are still consistently getting banned, though! The last big ban wave was just a few days ago, as many of you know.
Q: How to get on internal testing team to help verify issues with upcoming releases on staging env?
A: We pick Staging testers based on their engagement within the community and the type of feedback they provide. It’s not something you can directly apply for, so stay active in the game and the community if you’d like to be considered!
Teaser
Here’s a teaser of one of many things to come! What do you think it could be?
