Hello community,
We've just released our latest update ERRANT PILGRIM!
[previewyoutube=XaRNygzfPMc;leftthumb][/previewyoutube]
NEW REGION: Bleak Inlet
A wind-swept coastline reveals an abandoned industrial facility -- an aging Cannery that holds some useful secrets. But finding your way to it is a two-stage affair, involving accessing the region from both the Raven Falls ravine, and Forlorn Muskeg. But watch out! Vicious Timberwolf packs have moved into this region, and will defend their territory to the death.
NEW CHALLENGE: As the Dead Sleep
Youre a tortured soul on the edge of death. Find five grave markers in the distant corners of the world, and maybe you can feel some peace before you fade into The Long Dark. Inspired by the community-conceived Deadman challenge, this is our harshest Challenge yet.
NEW GAMEPLAY: Ammunition Workbench
Look for the Ammo Crafting Workbench. With the right supplies, you can assemble your own ammunition for the Rifle or Revolver. But assembling the gear you need, and finding the bench, wont be easy.
NEW ITEMS: Gunpowder & Ammunition Components
Weve added all the raw materials you need to craft ammunition. If you manage to gather them all, and find an Ammunition Bench, youll be significantly enhancing your life expectancy on Great Bear.
1) Lead from batteries to make bullets
2) Collect sulfur from plant fertilizer + Charcoal from burned out fires + potassium nitrate from Stump Remover = Gunpowder
3) Shell casing
4) Bullet + Gunpowder + Shell Casing + Ammo Bench = Ammunition
NEW GAMEPLAY: Gunsmithing & The Milling Machine
With the help of the active Aurora, the Milling Machine comes to life, giving you the capability to restore ruined firearms, and repair damaged ones, along with future capabilities. Just keep in mind youll need the Gunsmithing skill to make any headway with this tool.
NEW FEATS: Blizzard Walker, Expert Trapper, Straight to the Heart
New in-game achievements that lend gameplay benefits to Survival Mode games.
QUALITY OF LIFE: Campfire, Emergency Shelter Breakdown
By popular demand, weve added the ability to break down Campfire rings and Emergency Shelters, for those players who like to pack out what they pack in.
