Hello Deadsiders!



Now that update 0.12.2 has been out for a while, we believe it is time to share with you what we have been working on in the background. Some of the features we are going to talk about today are still early on in development, so we ask for your patience, and of course, your feedback!

To begin, let's start with some of the base building features that we have been working on. We plan to simplify the base building process overall, meaning that our old placeholder system is going to be replaced by something more elegant, and more efficient. Additionally, this new system will allow us to implement more base features, for example, upgradeable walls! Using scrap metal found across the map, you can upgrade and further fortify your base to keep it more secure from any potential raiders.

And finally, to keep the game more balanced, we have decided to add base maintenance. This will require the player to collect resources in order to prevent their base from decaying. We understand that this isn’t exactly the most exciting feature, but we believe it's important to give players more control over their own base decay.

The last base feature we would like to talk about today is raiding. For a while now, Deadside has used an online only raiding system, unfortunately though, this system has presented some difficult design challenges that we have been unable to solve. Like the use of alt-accounts to make unraidable bases for example. So, we will be moving to a more typical raiding system, where your base is always vulnerable. We understand that many of you may have liked the old raid token system, but we believe that this will keep gameplay more fresh and exciting in the long run.

Next up, in order to expand and improve player progression, we have begun working on Trader Leveling! This means the items available at the trader will now depend on your reputation level with them. To increase your reputation level, just bring scrap metal to the trader, the same metal you need to upgrade your base. This will increase your reputation, and eventually unlock new sets of items each time you increase your reputation level. The highest trader rep levels offer the best gear, but require the most time investment.

We believe that this trader level system will do a lot to help expand gameplay progression in Deadside, as players will no longer be able to immediately purchase some of the best gear in the game anymore. Plus, it will give our players a completely new and challenging objective to work towards and complete, which we believe will help make Deadside a more rewarding, and replayable game overall.

With the implementation of sleeping bags and respawn beacons, players have a lot more control over where they respawn on the map, to the point where it's typical for most players to run back into a fight over and over again. While we do like the faster paced gameplay, we believe that respawning has become too easy and forgiving. So we have decided to remove the ability for players to respawn at towns, meaning that unless you have a sleeping bag or respawn beacon setup, you will randomly respawn somewhere on the beach. This will make the player more responsible for their own respawns, and help PvP feel more controlled and fair.

Of course, we have saved the best for last, Vehicles! Ground vehicles are currently the most important feature we have in development right now, and where a lot of our energy is being spent. This is a huge feature, in both technical complexity and gameplay impact. For those who haven’t seen our last WIP post, we have been working on developing a small motorbike, and a larger car for transport around the map.

We understand that ground vehicles are a very important, and very anticipated feature, so we are taking this time to make sure that ground vehicles are functional and balanced. This means more internal playtests and development time, so we are going to have to ask you all to be patient for just a bit longer.

But, we aren’t going to leave you completely empty handed, check out this vehicle demonstration so that you can see our progress for yourself!
