0.10 is Coming Tomorrow!
Finally, youll be able to play through all of The Wild Eight with your gamepad! Some even say that the game is more comfortable to play with a controller - why not give it a go?
To make sure the game is fully playable with a controller, weve given both the main menu and in-game HUD a major overhaul! Its more practical than the previous version for multiple reasons - just as an example, the game now has a Mini-Map! The new style also gives the game a new, fancy feel, which we hope youll enjoy.
Weve decided to give players more freedom in regards to how they want to experience The Wild Eight. Starting from 0.10, you wont have to choose between Single-player and Multiplayer every time you start a server - now, youll be able to change between those modes right from the Pause menu! Had a fun time exploring Alaska on your own, and want your friends to join? Thats great! Got really far in a public game, and want to play alone, while keeping the characters experience and items? No problem!
Last, but certainly not least! As weve mentioned in the posts above, at a certain point in development we realized that our network solution had to be re-designed - and it took a lot of work, but we did just that! No more of that pesky de-synchronization, no servers dropping for no apparent reason, and finally - 8 people can play the game on the same server without any netcode issues! (Hopefully.) So, were excited for you to give it a go and tell us your opinion! Please Note - there still may be some kinks to figure out with the new netcode, so please be patient - it will get perfected over time.
Due to significant changes in the games architecture, the support for previous versions save files is now limited. Saves from 0.9 will be converted, and all of your progress will be brought over to the new version! Save files made on older versions (0.8 or below) will, unfortunately, not be available for use. [quote] All of this, along with multiple bug fixes and balance changes, will be available on December 19th, 6 PM GMT / 12 PM CST / 1 PM EST - when the 0.10 Update becomes available! [/quote] P.S. You can try out a Beta version of the 0.10 Update right now! See this post for more details on how to join the Early Survivors, and try out the new features for yourself!

The Wild Eight is in a constant state of improvement, and it is not yet complete. If you are not ready for rare bugs and wipes, we recommend waiting for the full release.

Buying the game and providing your feedback during Early Access will support us in improving the game. For more details check out our Early Access section above.
