First things first, we want to thank you so much for being patient while we worked towards the release of Season 4. As a community you guys have been absolutely amazing during this time and it means a lot to the team. As of the release of these patch notes, we are still waiting for the full transition to free to play and the moment free to play has been enabled for our store page, we will be granting all owners of the game the founder’s package. We currently have an open ticket for Steam to enable free to play and are hopeful that it should be enabled within the next few days. While we wait for F2P to be enabled we are running a final 90% sale for anyone that wants to jump in early!
Base Building
One of the biggest new features coming for Season 4 is our new base building system!
Our base building design will require resource gathering, which means we have implemented a destructible environment system that will allow for the gathering of wood, rocks, and other resources. By default Unreal Engine does not support this very well so in order to achieve a destructible environment that will scale to the size of our new map (64km2), we had to modify the engine. Resources that have been harvested will respawn after a certain amount of time, and regions on the map will be specialized in certain resources that are generated within each area.
Wood can be harvested from trees with an axe, boulders can be harvested for ores and rocks with a pickaxe. A furnace is used to smelt ores into bars, which then can be used to craft other items or upgrade your base, or be sold to the vendor.
We’ve overhauled our placement system which was previously used for other deployables such as sandbags and turrets. The new system includes a snapping system, which allows for base parts to easily snap together.
Each base part will have individual health and will need to be maintained as bases decay over time. Base parts are also individually upgradable, with 3 tiers - Wood, Stone and Metal.
The base building system is separated by two separate types of components, base parts and perimeter parts. Base parts, such as foundations, walls, floors are used to create your base. The perimeter parts, such as walls and gates are used to surround your base to add extra protection.
Other objects such as storage containers, work benches, and more will also be available to place inside and around your base. Defense objects, such as punji sticks can also be used to protect your base against raiders.
Note: At the time of this release we have disabled base decay while the system is being debugged. We plan to release the decay system very soon in an upcoming patch.
New Map
Complete with newly designed towns, a destructible environment, and other points of interest, our new 64km sq map provides players with plenty of opportunity to claim a portion as their new home! All points of interest have been completely designed from the ground up to give players plenty of new areas to explore as well as provide for intense pvp combat situations. Our loot tables have been redesigned and implemented to specific containers to allow for a wide variety of different loot types to be found throughout the map. Military areas are protected by XOIDS and contain opportunities for high tier gear to spawn, but be prepared, the XOIDS have become stronger than their previous humanoid counterparts! With global events spawning throughout the map, there’s always going to be something happening and you never know when you might run across someone’s base! Be prepared, gear up, and discover the world!
Character Customization
Hey good lookin! Season 4 brings one of the most anticipated and requested features, character customization. Customize your character to your own groovy style, or go for that rugged look! The choice is yours! Our character customization system includes 2 different body types, an assortment of skin tones to choose from, tons of hair styles, facial hair, and a full palette of hair colors to give you a unique look from others in the game! Upon your first time logging in, you’ll be prompted to create your character’s appearance. We have also included in game character clothing that can be earned by progressing through the Season Pass! What’s your style?
Missions System
With the release of Season 4 comes our all new Campaign Missions! The campaign missions will be a progressive system, which will allow players to be introduced to in-game mechanics, as well as reward them with in-game gear and more. Campaign missions will start out very simple and increase in difficulty as you progress from one tier to the next. With over 70 different missions to complete, you’ll always have a goal to work towards! We have plans for additional missions in the future as we work on expanding this system even further.
Season Pass/X-Coins
Season 4 will include our all new Season Pass and Premium Season Pass available to all players. The Season Pass will be tied to the player’s character level and offers a vast assortment of cosmetics, weapon skin crates, and more! Rewards will be granted to all Free-to-play players every few levels as they progress. Our Premium Season Pass is full of value and available for purchase with the all new in game currency, X-COIN.
