A Dark History

A Dark History The Kings And Queens Of Europe' title='A Dark History The Kings And Queens Of Europe' />The Long Dark on Steam. The following is a note from our creative director, Raphael van Lierop. Hello everyone,The teams hard at work on finalizing the still un named December update and with a bunch of new players joining us thanks to the Steam Autumn Sale, it seems like a good time to preview a few of the treats we have in store. First off, youre all waiting to hear more information about the Moose. The model, animation, audio, and core behaviour is all finished. Weve populated the world with Moose its a pretty rare animal so dont expect it to be easy to find and were now just tuning the AI behaviour and some of the Mooses unique capabilities to make sure it feels balanced. This guy does not look happy to see you. Keep your eyes for these scratches on the tree bark this might indicate Moose are in the area Were excited to hear your stories about Moose encounters once we roll it out into Survival Mode. This is the first new animal weve been able to add to the game in quite a while, and it shares characteristics of both the Deer and the Bear, so. We have a new Affliction and a couple of new craftable Gear Items associated with the Moose, so on the whole this should add some interesting depth to your Survival Mode experience. We have some other fun updates to Survival Mode coming in December, but Id like to talk about a couple of things were doing for Story Mode in the December update. WINTERMUTE Experience Modes. A common piece of feedback we received after launching WINTERMUTE was that the first two episodes were far too easy for our experienced Survival Mode players. This made the introductory segments feel slow paced and too tutorial y, and yet these sames parts could be quite punishing for players who didnt know anything about the game. It was challenging to balance Episode One for brand new players, and also players who had put 1. Sandbox, and we were reluctant to add the notion of difficulty modes for the Story experience, because we wanted everyone to share that experience the same way. Also, having multiple difficulties would create a ton of additional tuning and bug fixing overhead for us while we were trying to finalize our first two Episodes, and we were nervous about taking that on in addition to all the other finaling tasks on our plates. However, we really want everyone who plays WINTERMUTE new or veteran to have a great experience with this narrative mode, and we were sad to hear so many veteran survivors just didnt enjoy Episode One as much due to the level of challenge, so in December well be rolling out three new Experience Modes, specifically for WINTERMUTE.

Survival Mode experiences of Pilgrim, Voyageur, etc. WoodenBones12-692x1024.jpg' alt='A Dark History' title='A Dark History' />Three new Experiences should provide a good range of choice for WINTERMUTE players, from the Greenest to the most Hardened survivors. Gfx 8 Patch/ Download Last Version. This should give both the newest, and most veteran player of The Long Dark, a little more control over the type of experience they have when playing WINTERMUTE. Please note the new Experience Modes for WINTERMUTE will only work on games started fterthe December update. Another issue we encountered, post launch, were challenges around our implementation of the Save system for WINTERMUTE. Unlike Survival Mode, which is Permadeath i. WINTERMUTE has a two slot save system. Saves were triggered using the Bedroll or resting in a Bed as in Survival Mode, and also by Autosave as in Survival Mode, but we found that this introduced too many restrictions for players, discouraged experimentation, and also often resulted in players getting stuck between two bad saves, sometimes in an irrecoverable situation. This was terrible for some people, and we feel really bad about it. So with the December update, were rolling out a completely overhauled Save System for WINTERMUTE. You can now save pretty much anywhere, with between 2. WINTERMUTE, Survival Mode, and Challenges. We also let you reload from an Autosave, or a Checkpoint these are triggered by mission progress, so between those systems, we feel that players will have LOTS of choices in terms of how often or how rarely they want to save, and will have a much better chance to recover from a bad situation, or create their own branches when they want to experiment with different things in a given Episode. For anyone that already has Saves for WINTERMUTE, this revision doesnt change anything. Youll find your existing saves in the list, and you should be able to create new saves using the revised system. A Dark History Of The Popes' title='A Dark History Of The Popes' />And to be 1. WE HAVE NOT CHANGED THE WAY SAVES WORK IN SURVIVAL MODE or the Challenges. Both are still permadeath experiences. In addition to Milton being playable in Survival Mode in December mentioned in our October Dev Blog, we have some other cool stuff we havent shared yet we still want you to be surprised December update.
