Carrying Objects

We have added support for being able to carry objects in your hands (pick them up with no weapon equipped). Right now the only thing you can carry are animals, but more items/features will be added in future updates.

Animal System

The first iteration of our new animal system is included in this update. It is a very lightweight, networked system for simple animals in the game (non-aggressive)

Roosters and pigs are currently spawning in game - more animals will be added in future updates
Animals may be killed and harvested/looted
With your hands empty, you may pick up animals and carry them around

Patch #36 - 06/30/2016

Relevance System Overview:

The relevance system is a fundamental change to several of the core systems of CryEngine. It alters how all entities (players, AI, vehicles, items, etc.) are updated on the server and synchronized with all the clients.

The new system greatly reduces the bandwidth requirements of the server and clients - the server sends a lot less data and clients receive a lot less data. Due to the reduced bandwidth requirements of the server it also reduces the CPU usage, so that we can use the savings for new features. It also reduces the time you spend on the "Synchronizing world state" phase when joining a server.

Reloading Weapons:

You can now press R to reload your weapon
Reload animations and sounds now work
The first applicable magazine/ammo pile NOT in your backpack will be used
Magazines/ammo piles in your backpack will NOT be used for automatic reloading by design, move them to another piece of clothing
You can press R to reload while moving
The new reloading system does NOT work for shotguns yet - manually move the ammo in the UI like previously

Incapacitation System:

You can now bind other players using Duct Tape (equip the duct tape in a secondary weapon slot)
A player can be captured when you are behind them and they are not moving or if they have their hands up
If bound you can use the lean keys for 4-5 minutes to eventually break free
Another player can free a captured player by targeting them and using the action menu
Captured players can be passengers in cars and still consume items in the world
Captured players cannot access their inventory or pick up items

Tents:

Tents will appear in the world already set up (much like how vehicles just appear)
Tents do not have an owner - anyone that finds a tent can empty it, pack it up and move it
Tents can take damage and be destroyed - and items will be destroyed in them as well
Tents can be pitched anywhere in the world (except on another person's plot) - you do not need a plot sign to pitch a tent
Tents have to be pitched on terrain only - they cannot be on top of rocks or other structures/base parts
To pack up a tent you have to empty any contents inside of it first
There is a limited amount of tents that spawn in the entire world, and a limited amount that can be placed at once
Tents will despawn if nobody uses them after several days
Tents come in various sizes and colors - each size holds a different amount of items
Tents can be repaired using duct tape

Game:

Can no longer remove attachments from another player's weapon while he's holding it
You can consume an item without picking it up - mouse wheel down when one is targeted
Black screen bug related to lightning/lights is fixed
Increased suicide timer to 300 seconds
Increased idle kick time to 600 seconds
Second primary weapon slot is enabled
Primary weapons can no longer be stored inside of clothing/backpacks
Jacket/vest slot is now available with new clothing you can find for it
Players can no longer spawn on top of other players at spawn points
Items can now spawn inside of clothing and backpacks you find on the ground
Items can now spawn inside of vehicles
Items can spawn inside of tents
Safe fall distance slightly increased
Fixed server ban message - will specify if it's a specific server ban or a global game ban
Shadow cache is updated every 15 seconds to fix strange shadow artifacts after settings are changed
Default view distance increased to 4km (required for rainbows and new volumetric fog)
Recompiled shader caches
Players will no longer respawn in the Northern part of the map
Item respawn system fixed, so they respawn correctly now
Several game and server crashes fixed

Decreased the attack speed of the hatchet and axe
Adjusted arrow and bolt speeds
Adjusted recoil for all pistols
Adjusted damage for most weapons and ammo types
Decreased ironsight zoom amounts for better CQC response
Weapon sounds can attract AI within a certain radius when fired (each weapon's radius varies)
Melee range adjusted for some weapons
Fixed bow not being able to shoot if you try and shoot it too fast
Bow no longer tries to automatically reload when it runs out of arrows
You can heal another player directly if you have a bandage in a non-backpack slot
Damage from all melee weapons reduced

Animations:

Weapon movement for stowed weapons fixed and positions adjusted
M40A5 magazine is correctly positioned in the weapon
Fixed shotgun ironsight fire so the weapon doesn't clip into the camera
Fixed leaning setup to work better
Potential fix for the driver standing up while driving in a vehicle
Many animations added for reloading weapons
Many adjustments to recoil and firing animations

Long read ahead.

I don't normally post game reviews, but felt compelled to make an exception. I was making an argument against PvE servers (more on this later), and received a permanent ban. Normally, I prefer to provide feedback on Steam games in person via forums, but that avenue has been closed to me, so I'll rely on this alternative.

First of all, how's the game itself?

It's not too bad, but if I were to sum it up with a title, it would be "H1Z1: Pre-Pre-Alpha Edition." It has a 36 player cap, runs on CryEngine, and is unable to support more than a few dozen entities in a ~25km² playable area. Speaking of the map, I did find it to be one of the game's high points. Unfortunately, this is where the "pros" list more or less ends.

I'll make this simple by going line-item with regard to what I believe to be the core concepts necessary to a survival game's integrity. You can decide for yourself whether these are done well or not, according to your own survival game experiences.

The Environment
Nature is realistic enough (can actually hide in the bushes), but the (enterable) buildings are about as generic as they can be. It's pretty much a copy-paste job for a few "small home" types of buildings, a few shops, and a factory.

The "Zombies"
These perma-aggro on you if they spot you. They also die in about three swings from a melee weapon. You will encounter these less than a fifth of the time you encounter players on a full server; the engine simply can't support a decent amount of NPCs. There are also wolves, which interestingly enough try to distract you for others in the pack to strike from behind, but they tether and teleport back if you run about 300 meters.

The Items/Loot
By far one of the game's worst aspects, and something I brought up in the forums very often. Ammunition is extremely rare, which is probably intended to mitigate player-killing. About 97% of what you find is food and clothing. In fact, food is trivialized to such an extent, that I'm not sure why it's in the game. Meanwhile, crafting materials are very rare, which brings me to...

The Crafting
Freeform base-building. Similar to other games, but you're not limited by structure part "latch" points. You can only build on a plot of land that you "claim" (one per server), and the structures are easy to break into, unless you use exploits to build in the air. The single most important aspect of base-building, storage, is trivialized because of excessive load on the engine hoarding. You get to have one small box (8 slots) and one large box (never found the recipe) per server. That's it. As far as item crafting goes, the selection is extremely limited, and you'll rarely find what you want anyway. Example: there are 16 arrow/bolt recipes (making up 64% of all weapon recipes), but in the time I've played, I found arrows exactly once. Oh, and the inventory uses an outdated "slot" system.

The Performance, et cetera
The game runs...okay. That said, crashes are very common, and you will need to drop your settings to make the swings in frame rates tolerable. I had to drop shadows and AO on my stock GTX 980 just to not dip into the 30s all the time. Also, there are frequent lag-pauses, which is something that's apparently being addressed soon. There are some issues with getting stuck on geometry, and some "temporary" bugs, such as headshots not working.

The Atmosphere
The environment looks good, and the weather effects are nice, but outside of that, there's nothing that makes you really feel that you're "surviving," aside from the occasional encounters with other players, which, because of the low player cap, don't happen too often. And when they do, the players usually go their separate ways because no one is armed with a ranged weapon. The geared players, on the other hand, will almost always kill you, because the game lacks PvE content to such an extent that there's really nothing else they can do for fun. And because ammo is so rare, it's usually a very one-sided affair, as you can't reliably arm yourself with low-end ranged weapons until you've farmed for a while. You'll find guns, and you'll find ammo, but you'll rarely survive long enough to have matching sets. The few gunfights I've been in were against groups of 2-4 geared players when I at best had half a clip to fire. In their intention to combat mindless killing, the devs created a situation in which it's extremely difficult to deter better-geared players killing everything they see. In other games, it's easy to get some kind of pistol quickly, which, despite its inferiority, poses some danger to someone with a dope carbine.

Did I mention that nights are dark? They're extremely dark, to the point that you might as well be playing blind. If you have a glossy monitor and/or any kind of reflective glare, forget it. Fortunately for you, there's a fix: just turn up your driver gamma. But here's a quick anecdote with regard to that: when the devs were pressed as to why they don't balance the darkness a bit in the face of such a fix, they said that they didn't want to turn down the (let me paraphrase) "hardcore" darkness, because then they would essentially be "responsible for implementing a darkness-subverting exploit." That, and no one would be using the flashlight they put in the game. That's some logic right there.

Well, I feel that this has gone on long enough. I'd like to just touch up on what brought me here in the first place: the devs' treatment of the community. It appears to be, shall I say it, very "politically-correct." Disagreement is frowned upon, and rules are enforced arbitrarily. When I got in touch with a developer to inquire about my situation, he said he would look into it, and in a few minutes, blocked me without saying a word. It was pretty obvious that it was a matter of politics, and they just wanted to remove someone who publicly spoke about the game's issues (outlined here) instead of giving praise to meager iterations of progress. I know for a fact that they didn't get rid of me to protect any of their "fans" from emotional harm. I was active for about three weeks, and during that time, I was pretty much the only one who logically addressed the game's issues, instead of either mindlessly praising or cursing it.

It was curious how they threw in "insulting developers" into the reason, considering I've done no such thing, and in fact wasn't even insulting the carebear advocates edging me on. Not a single cuss ever left my mouth. Of course they also ran the "remove all posts" toggle, so I can't prove it. Over twelve years and almost 11,000 posts, and this is the first game company to give me this sort of treatment. And I never expected these guys to do it, since I was advocating for their intent to create a survival game that's more hardcore than others on the market.

But in the end, if this game seems like a good investment (and I would've honestly still given it a thumbs-up if it was $6.99 or less, despite everything else), you have to ask yourself this: if you can't trust them to be honest with regard to how they treat their community members, can you trust them to deliver on the promises they're making with regard to their product? The game has been out for two years now, and I got it during the recent sale. It was in my wishlist during that entire time, and yet it doesn't feel much different from the videos I watched in 2014.

I take censorship very seriously (and you should too). Here are the links to pictures of the offending post, if anyone wants to get a better idea of what you'll be dealing with:

pros
+ good graphics
+ lots of small details

cons
+ grindfest, literally no resources to be found, searching hours for a couple of trousers just to be able to craft a backpack (4hrs not even a backpack)
+ melee combat, its ♥♥♥♥, was adequate 20years ago
+ ranged, you wont find any so might as well sort under negative
+ vehicles, you wont find any tires

I really dont get why every survival game dev thinks there would be absolutely nothing to find after the apokalypse. There would be so much stuff around that the few survivors could never use it up!(we have so much ♥♥♥♥ around even in 80 years you couldnt use it up.) And get your lazy ♥♥♥♥ up and implement gameplay mechanics instead of the letting us search for hours for jack ♥♥♥♥ loot.

Still better than h1z1 because they at least dont sell skins for an unfinished product.

3/10

Spent nearly an hour looting around and found 0 players. Got stuck somehow, then propelled 50 feet in the air and died. See screenshot for proof.

Y u no buy?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I have played this game for more than a year and now i cant even play, HUGE ♥♥♥♥ING FRAMES DROPS 20 min in game all the black screns. Sorry dev but adding pigs and ♥♥♥♥ insted of fixing all the bugs this game have i can not recommend this game. FIX NOW!

This Game is pretty much the best survival game out right now with the most enjoyble content with many friendly guys that will give you ton of mad ♥♥♥♥♥.This Game plays really well and i would highly recommend to any one who likes fun.Thus this game is the ♥♥♥♥ and i will likley play for another +2,0000 hrs or i might ♥♥♥♥ing blow my head off.

Game is in early access, so it is rather buggy still. And by rather buggy I mean invisible players, dying from exiting a car driving at 2mph, or exiting in a location with a tight fit. Sometimes players are invincible, either by another bug or they are using cheats.
Fuel and oil often bugs out of cars, as well as other items getting stuck in inventory slots.
Cars flip way too easy as well as explode when you touch an invisible wall, and there are plenty of invisible walls. All in very stupid locations, like right off the side of the road.
Weapons misfire when clicking items in inventory.
Bullets sometimes dont register damage. Cars lag when driving, arent synched with other players view of them. Not to mention the constant microstutter when driving cars, regardless of specs or internet speed.
NPC enemies sometimes despawn and even spawn out of nowhere.
Player bodies despawn before you can loot them quite often. People alt+f4 to escape death as well, and the time you need to alt+f4 (when the game freezes every 30 minutes) it wont let you.
Dropping items on top of any static object will often cause them to fall through that object down onto the terrain. So dropping an item on the second floor of a building will cause your item to fall through the floor and the next floor, down to the ground. Even when dropping directly on terrain the game will sometimes glitch the item out and cause your item to fly across the map.

There are countless other bugs that plague this game regularly. But despite them all, I have been alive for over 20 hours straight without dying on a KOS server. Killed at leat 50 people, driven and traded a dozen cars. Stockpiled weapons and ammo for friends and gunfights.
But all in all, I would pass on this game for now. Wait for it to enter retail release because the alpha is way to buggy.
This game will likely die off after Escape From Tarkov comes out anyway, and this game will likely still be in beta.

10/10

Better than day z, this game is amazing and a great work in progress. Definitely one of the best open world games yet even for being such an under the radar game.

so i started out a fresh spawn like every other pleb.

i found a ton of gear, got pretty lucky, had a shotgun, two pistols with ammo, a sniper, hatchet, bunch of medical supplies. second largest backpack, combat gear. a sweeeet eyepatch.

i found a quad, looked all over for parts, finally found everything i needed except two tires..

another fresh spawn joined the game right behind where i was, he asked for a ride, graciously i gave him one.

we tooled around for a bit looking for two front tires, i found one and we were able to go much faster.

we arrived in a town called sultan, he said he found a .357 magnum, i already gave him a gun, just without ammo.. at this point we had been traveling together for about an hour, so i decided to trust him... i gave him some .357 ammo i had on me.

we continued to search through sultan, i found an ultra rare collectable item.. a "Garden Gnome". i was so excited, so happy. felt like the sad desolate world that makes up miscreated was finally started to pull itself back together, all was well.

we met back at the church where i parked the quad, i took the battery out so nobody could steal it, and he was waiting by it. i told him of my spectacular find, the ultra rare, ultra suave "Garden Gnome".

he asked to see it, so i showed him. then quickly picked it back up. he asked if it stands up, i said i dont know, so i dropped it once more, as soon as it dropped, he pulled out a gun, tensions rose, he aimed.. took 3 shots, and down i went, like a tree without a stump.. like a giraffe that lost its balance..

i was hurt, and dying. betrayed by my own apprentice, betrayed by a filthy disgraceful, despicable Gnome-stealer.

i laid there as he looted my bleeding body, took my gnome first, then my guns and ammo, stripped me of my glorious eyepatch, now blood-stained. he took my backpack and car battery, put it in the quad, looked back one last time in the grief and horror of his actions, then looked down at the gnome with one tear in his eye..

he wiped that tear, stuffed the gnome back in his new blood-stained backpack and pulled away on my old quad.

I will find that Garden Gnome again, if its the last thing i do. Even if i have to pry it from my old friends cold, dead hands. Betrayal will fuel my search, revenge will find my Gnome.

It is said the deepest circle of hell is reserved for mutineers, and Gnome betrayers.

Miscreated is just really and underrated game. The whole atmosphere feels much more like an apocalypse compared to DayZ and H1Z1. It's nice to have mutans instead of your traditional ''zombie'' and the animations for guns, and stuff on your back is just sooooo good! Thumps up for these guys, they are really doing an amazing job to make a fantastic game!

Logged into a server
Was near a bridge, decided to start crossing it
Come across three guys, wave at them, they wave back
Thought they were friendly and walked past
Was walking in the opposite direction when I suddenly got shot from behind
All three of them were chasing me with hatchets and axes
They followed me through the nearest town for about 5 minutes
I decided I'd try lose them by jumping off a bridge into a river, they didn't stop
ALT+F4'd after 20 minutes of chasing, seems like they had time well spent.

10/10 would be chased again

I honestly don't know why people dislike this game. Better than Dayz and H1Z1 and ppl are friendly and less kos cancer. Better graphics than real life. Met many friends along the way, some stayed some left, some I had to kill becuz they were dying. More realistic than real life.

So I've been thinking of buying DayZ or H1Z1 for quite sometime, but I just wasn't too impressed by their game engines and some of the game mechanics. Recently found out about Miscreated and started watching video and game play. Decided to go for it.

I like ARK (xbox one player), but it's systems are too convoluted for me to just pick up and play in short bursts.

Miscreated seems to a very underrated game. I do enjoy it much more than Ark.

The game engine is fantastic and the graphics are top notch (GTX970+i7 6700k stock clocks = ~50fps max everything).

Looking at the update history shows that it gets regular updates.

Inventory seems easy to manage. Wish the items auto stacked though.
Crafting system is easy to get into with a low learning curve.
Have not tried base building yet.
Gun play seems to be on point. I do not notice lag during shoot outs.
Melee combat could use some work.
Not many gun options or gun customization yet. Enough to enjoy the game though (handguns, rifles, explosives, bolt action, etc are in the game).

Weather system is amazing. Thunderstorms at night is something that really draws you in.

Not much KOS going on so that's a plus.

32 player count. Devs say this will expand as they open up more of the map.

I hope they get more support from the community. $20 is a fair price for the content that is available in early access.

I play on one of the official servers and it's usually in the 20-30 player count range.

Graphics and art direction are WAY better than the stuff I've seen with DayZ and H1Z1.

I've been playing this game for a while now. I have to say that it is the best survival game out there.
It is still in alpha so of course it contains some bugs but at least for me there has been almost none of them. If you complain how the game lags and it wont run great yadda yadda.. it is because of your computer. It is a beautiful game and it doesn't run on every potato out there. I bought this game about a year ago... for the first time tho.. i refunded it just for the simple reason: my pc didn't run it as good as i thought it to do.. I upgraded my GPU from 660 to 970 (2gb to 4gb) and i wanted to give it another shot. And im glad i did. The game is growing all the time and devs are into it. Well worth its money. I recommend!

Well this is the first game Ive given a review on so here it gose.

Ive played for 43h so far and deffinatly recomend this to both single players and friends. Its a lot of fun surviving with friends and the sheer horror of facing your first mutant or wolf pack is just a panic fest, not to mention the tention of seeing another player, waiting for them to yell friendly or just all out fire fight will happen.

I have to say murdering your fellow survivors is a great feeling, but the acomplishemnt you can do as a team is rather pleasing aswell. The update made it playable and the atmosfere of the game is 10/10.

EARLY ACCESS REVIEW
Ok this game is not for everyone. Its for people who have experienced crappy survival games that have very few dedicated teams. While yes this game has small content, it has some pros.
Pros:
Runs great on higher Rigs
Framerate doesnt drop as much in cities
Has a funcional basbuilding system with recipe that you must find
9/10 people will try not to kill you but rather interact with you ( BASED OFF OF EXPERIENCE!!!)
Nice looking game on Cryengine
5 working Vechicles

Cons:
Mutants need to be nerfed for easier melee combat and have a little less health
Some glithces with the inventory in everything
Fuel and oil slowly go away when put into a vechicle
Many glitches that will making you mad

7/10 for right now, but if the devs dont screw it up, this could be a sruvival game that can las
