Wastelander 1.0 Has Arrived!
It's been a long road but we're finally ready to remove the Early Access tag from Wastelander. With the 1.0 release comes a fairly large amount of QoL changes and improvements!



Re-mappable keybinds & Controller Support
  • We've completely reworked our input system to support re-mappable keybinds for all players.
  • Added a bunch of new controls and menu navigation features.
  • Controller support! As of right now XBOX, Playstation, and generic gamepad style controllers have been fairly heavily tested.


Improved Menus
  • Home Screen, Daily Challenge, and Standard / Custom game creation screens have been significantly improved both visually and functionally!
  • Post-game screen has received visual improvements


Desolation Level Badge
  • You can now see your current highest desolation level on the main menu as well as the game creation menu

More tutorial improvements
  • In our endless quest to improve our tutorial, we've made another round of improvements to our tutorial.

General polish and stability
  • This patch contains a huge amount of polish and stability fixes, too many to list.

What Comes Next?
We really appreciate all the support up until now, from everyone who's played the game in Early Access, Wishlisted the game, made content, chatted with us on discord, and more.

While this milestone represents what we feel is a solid V1 of Wastelander, we'd very much like to hear your feedback about the game. We plan to continue releasing support and improvement patches to make the game the best it can possibly be, so please send us your feedback, suggestions, and any bug reports via Discord or Steam discussions.

Also if you play the game and enjoy it, please leave us a Steam review as it really helps us out!

Thank you all!

This update adds the following....

1. New glow/holographic effect for the HUD. There are also 2 new sliders in the Game Settings menu to control how much glow intensity and glow spread.

The default values should give a subtle glow for most colours. However, the glow is calculated based on colour "brightness" so a whiter/lighter colours will naturally have more glow while darker colours have less. Setting the Glow Intensity to 0 will remove it completely.

A particular favourite of mine is...
Red: 255
Green: 120
Blue: 0
Glow Spread: 3
Glow Intensity: 0.2

Which then looks like this...



2. New main menu music which is actually from Stealth Fighter D.E.X. It's a bit more subtle for menu music while still being a little retro.

3. Removed foliage from under the runway

I think this now brings the terrain streaming beta to an end. It's working as far as i can see.

Early next week I will push all the updates to the public branch and we'll be starting on the upgrades for the sector system which means I am now working on Dynamic Campaign elements.

While the main focus of the next beta will be sectors it will also include a lot of other bits and pieces such as mission upgrades and A.I. upgrades for both fixed wing and rotor aircraft - you might even see vehicles starting to move as part of the supply column system ːsteamhappyː

Revision: LoM v1.7.5a
Release Date: 7/12/24
Patch Size: 7 Issues addressed

Review the build/patch/hotfix list below for a detailed list of resolved issues in the associated build/patch/hotfix.

1 - [COMPLETED] The interface to convert Light Cubes to BP has been removed to avoid confusion for players.

2 - [COMPLETED] Battle Pass has been changed to be available immediately for all players instead of requiring players to complete the base game and all expansions before accessing it.

3 - [COMPLETED] Fixed an issue that caused a large performance hit when looking at portals in Blitz Mode.

4 - [COMPLETED] Fixed a bug with the Battle Pass that caused items to not be delivered when unlocking the tier under certain conditions.

5 - [COMPLETED] JOY! Keybinding has been added for Quick Slot items. FINALLY! 😄 We've also added keybinding for the DPS meter as well.

6 - [COMPLETED] Core System for active attack and buffs have been added for supporters!!!

7 - [COMPLETED] First Supporter slot will be unlocked by default for new players to allow them to enjoy help from Supporters on missions from the start! The second supporter slot will now unlock at Prestige 15.

KNOWN ISSUES:

1 - The current group of selected warmaidens may change when switching from one warmaiden to another. Meaning if you have both supporters out and switch to another warmaiden that only has one supporter then switch back to the warmaiden that had two supporters it may only spawn one of them (who is in the slot is fine just who should come out to help isn't). I know... it's confusing. Either way we have a handle on this bug and will fix it post 1.7.5a. We don't want to address this late in the game to introduce other problems. Just know there maybe some weirdness on the default spawned warmaidens in this build and we have a handle on the fix.

2 - Also please keep in mind that any updates to supporters will require re-adding them to see the updates. Meaning if I have a supporter on my team and change their outfit I will need to remove them and re-add to the team to see this update.

3 - IMPORTANT - Keybinds WILL BE RESET for this build. You will need to remap your keybinds as we've added the ability to map the DPS meter and the Quick Slots.
