Hey Survivors!

They Beware Lamps update is now live!

This update focuses primarily on quality-of-life changes, balancing and bug fixes as we continue work on reworking custom games.

Balance Changes

Abandoned Ranger

  • Based on feedback from the community, we reviewed and rebalanced the animal waves for the Abandoned Ranger objective. There is now updated logic for how many and what type of animal will spawn based on the state (sabotaged vs not sabotaged) and how many survivors are still alive.

Some notable bug fixes

  • Fixed an issue where animal waves would not begin after a signal tower was sabotaged. Now, animal waves will spawn for one minute if the signal tower is reactivated via sabotage.
  • Fixed an issue with the Abandoned Ranger objective where animal spawn radius for the signal towers; previously the radius was very small, so animal waves would only spawn if you were very, very close to the signal tower.
  • Fixed an issue in Custom Games where the game settings may become desynchronized across players if the host changed the setting in the lobby. This would have caused players to see different objectives and roles from the host. This may have also caused loading issues where some players may have experienced a ‘hang’ while loading into the match.
  • Fixed an issue in Custom Games where the match may fail to load if the host modified the animal health values.

Cosmetics

As always, you will see new cosmetics in-store for the months of July and August!
