ALIEN DAWN - Update 17

Alien Dawn · published 30 Sep 2022, 05:25 UTC

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

The other night I was watching my Dad play the game (he has over 200 hours in), and when he called for extraction at the Radio Tower the Extraction Point didn't appear on the Map.

I'd never seen this happen before so I thought it was a one off thing, but then someone mentioned in it in the Steam forums. Must be a bug from the last update.

Because of this we're releasing this new patch today in an attempt to fix that bug, among some fun new additions like the gigantic physics based Ferris Wheel that works in multiplayer.🔻

⚠️Moving forward I would like to put a group together to help test for bugs like the missing Extraction Point before releasing new patches. If you're interested in helping me out with this, please reach out to me on Discord and I will add you to this new testing group.

As always thank you to everyone who has left a review as well as continues to support the game.

This patch primarily focuses on multiplayer fixes as we continue to make online play stable and a solid gameplay experience. It also includes tweaks and additions, many of which are based on feedback from our friends on the Alien Dawn Discord.

People buy the game after seeing posts about the new version, then launch a two-year-old build instead. Naturally, that isn't the experience I want new players to have. 2. Playtesters potentially use the wrong branc…
