A lil somethin somethin: You can find the details for this event on the announcement page here.
We’re looking at farming again today, this time by adding the new ‘Farmers Satchel’ which is a tier 2 upgrade on the Seed Pouch.
This has all the benefits of the Seed Pouch, but with more slots and uses than just seeds that makes it more useful when working with a large amount of crops.
We’re also talking today about the upcoming Prometheus Map Expansion, with details about how the mini-map works in this new ‘Null Sector’.
Jump in and have a read.
Notable Improvements:
- Medicine crafted on the person will head straight into the Medicine Satchel
- Fixed spoil timer showing {0} instead of the correct time
- Reduced spacing in the objectives list to better-fit missions with many objectives
This Week: Farmers Satchel
We’re adding a new ‘Farmers Satchel’ as a new item you can place in your inventory and use for extra seed storage.
The Farmers Satchel has 16 slots, considerably more than the Tier 1 Seed Pouch. This is crafted at Tier 2, and can be viewed as a direct upgrade. It can also hold fertilizer, making it substantially more useful for farming compared to the seed pouch which is useful mainly for foraging alone.
Coming Soon: Free Prometheus Expansion
We’ve entered the closed testing phase of our Prometheus Map expansion while we iron out some bugs that have cropped up. This is likely to take a few weeks and depending on the results, we may enter a stage of wider testing amongst the community.
This map expansion comes with five new missions that have you venture across the wasteland. The entire area is known as the ‘Null Sector’ and is a complete dark zone that requires a new item to map out. This won’t naturally become visible on your mini-map as other explored areas of the map would. Find out more about this next week.
Coming Soon: Prometheus World Bosses
We’re also working on a new World Boss in Prometheus which will be found in the swamp biome.
While we’re not releasing too many details yet, we thought we’d share a picture of one of its smaller forms to give you a few nightmares in the meantime.
Next Week: New Pistol & Balance
Next week we’ll be adding more firepower to Icarus with a new Tier 3 pistol which can load 6 bullets at a time. The CHAC pistol will also be adjusted to take into account the new Pistol's ammo capacity.
The old one shot pistol is being moved to Tier 2 along with the addition of some new crude ammo crafted at the same tier.
Your support makes these updates possible.
