Hey Survivalists,
So what the Hell is up with Alpha 11? We’ll it’s is nearing completion and we can smell the cornbread cooking over the campfire but we still have a ways to go as integrating Unity 5 has been a big job. That said, we’re getting close and if all goes well could have it out in March still. Tackling Unity 5 was well worth the effort but a few features needed to be pushed back but a lot of unexpected things have gotten in.
Here’s what’s made it in so far at very high level the official release notes will likely be 5 pages long.
Unity 5 with a lot of most its bells and whistles working
Sexy new Speedtree system with brand new trees
New screen space ambient occlusion system gives shadowing and weight to the world
New global physically based shader system which looks freaking beautiful
New high res sky system with stars at night
New item quality range system that affects guns, weapons, tools and clothing; this shit is deep
New player leveling and leveled looting system: craft better stuff at higher levels and have better chances for better loot
