The Sudden Arrival Update (0.6.6) | Mid-Game Joining, Discord Integration More!
Mid-Game Joining! - Thanks to the power of Time Travel (and countless coffee fueled network code nights for Jordan), players can finally join adventures in progress! Now you can warp into games guns-blazing, and rescue crews from their demise, or else host a public game yourself filled with a skeleton crew of Bots, to have them replaced by real players over the course of your adventure! Who needs to wait around in lobbies when you have swashbuckling Mid-Game Join action!?
Note: If you'd rather not have players warping into your session, or else if you want Bots to be irreplaceable by mere mortal flesh, you can toggle both of these via Game Options in the Lobby.
Discord "Rich Presence" Integration! - The top secret labs over at Discord Head Quarters have been brewing up a brand new way to join games with friends, and we've been along for the ride! Discord's newest feature is called "Rich Presence" - and We Need To Go Deeper is on board! https://discordapp.com/rich-presence With Rich Presence, your Discord friends can see what you are up to in-game, displaying everything from what Biome you are currently traversing, to what submarine you are driving! More importantly, they can see how big your crew is, so they'll know the perfect time to warp into your game! We Need To Go Deeper is among the first group of games to integrate with Discord in such a way, so now you too can feel like you're getting in on some real ground-floor gaming science. Also - The We Need To Go Deeper Discord is now Verified! So if you haven't already, join the Official WNTGD Discord community and get in on the sweet, sweet, science action.
New Relics! - The Living Infinite spills its secrets once more with brand new Relics to uncover in every biome. Each one is chock full of juicy hints regarding The Living Infinite's mysterious history and cultures, so bust out your shovels and start digging... for knowledge.
Tips! - You'll notice when diving into another adventure that some helpful new in-game tips will occasionally pop up to remind you how to engage with the world! These tips are here to help new and returning players learn how to get into the swing of things! Veteran swashbucklers who would rather not see these tips can also turn them off at will via the Options Menu.
Command Wheel as Quick Chat! - The Command Wheel (Middle Mouse by Default) has been equipped with brand new functionality! Now not only can you use the command wheel to order around loyal Bots, but you can order around your human crew as well! At the touch of a button, send snap messages to your team about your need to heal, assistance with torpedoes (which Bots are also now capable of), or just tell them they're doing a [strike]great[/strike] terrible job! Additionally, the Command Wheel is no longer exclusive to the Host! Joining players can shout at their team and bots as well as anyone.
- Fixed Bots not being able to navigate past frozen/vined up doors. Bots will now destroy door obstacles when needed. - Fixed Bots occasionally getting stuck in submarine hatches. - Fixed player count displaying incorrectly on LAN games. - Online games should (hopefully) no longer be able to exceed max player limits. - Fixed custom game option player health not being applied to clients correctly. - Fixed loadout confirmation being dependent on other players.
::: Player of the Month ::: November's Player of the Month award goes to... därSeebär! This one has been a long time coming, because while Steam user därSeebär has only recently jumped back into the community proper after a period of absence (a friendly reminder that real life should always take priority over games of course), it's hard to overstate just how helpful this dude is whenever he has been present. därSeebär has taken an incredibly professional and leader-like approach to everything he's done in the WNTGD community, from creating helpful templates and guides to smooth the process of editing the WNTGD Wiki, to jump-starting the creation of an official group for diligent Wiki editors, and on top of that taking on Mod duties within the WNTGD Discord and Steam Forums. This guy's been ever-helpful and supportive since day one, and showcases an admirable sense of professionalism in everything he does. Thank you, därSeebär! As always, the Player of the Month will be sent 4 copies of WNTGD to send to friends and family as a reward for their efforts. ::: Community Showcase ::: First up on the showcase is this incredible Halloween costume of Pale Jaw, sent to us by fan Eve Moran. We were blown away by this creation, and the attention to detail (Pale Jaw seen here munching on a small model of The Crevette) really puts the [strike]cherry[/strike] candy corn on top. Thanks Eve!
Speaking of costumes, we also received via email these great hand-made costume suggestions for WNTG characters by fans OnkelTino and bubuassnibba! The french artist is by far my favorite of the bunch here. We may yet see some of these become a reality yet.
Meanwhile, resident goat enthusiast Gote The Capricorn Trickster has been brewing up these cute and fun fan designs for a "Land Shark" pet, this one being my favorite: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1146830392 In less cute news, Wrzlprnft seems to be performing some kind of black magic ritual with the Dev team lately. Here's hoping we'll survive whatever hexes he's got planned. http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1163802814 For those looking for a laugh, ZeroScotty brewed up a new video recently detailing their crew's first experience with some particularly rude Bots, fashioned and edited into a few choice highlights from their adventure: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1175610956 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As always, let us know what you guys think of the new update, and be sure and leave your thoughts in the forums! Happy diving, y'all!

Leave the safety of your submarine to explore procedurally generated undersea caves, where you may come across treasure and danger in equal measure.
Choose from a variety of era-specific outfits from the 19th century to spruce up your adventurer! Non-gender-specific mustaches included.
From repair wrenches to guns, to fish-mincing meat cleavers, a variety of tools and weapons for helping your teammates is waiting to be discovered!
