Salutations, Playtesters!
Servers are reset and progress is wiped after fixing a major issues and introducing some new features. In addition to that, we have some cool improvements and essential bug fixes. Here are notable things that await you:
Raider Camps grow in unit count if not dealt with, and once they reach a certain number of units, a group will break off and become a raiding party that can trouble players in the early game.
When it comes to Gamphas, they’ll start to migrate to other nests once a certain unit number is reached for the original location.
All of these things should invite a more proactive playstyle.
Tenets are objectives designed as a linear first time user experience. Completing one Tenet activates the next in the sequence, and each Tenet can only ever be earned once. These act as a way to give new players a set of goals that roughly cover a sequence from spawn to Stronghold.
And completing tenets will give you small valor boosts, so that is a nice deal.
We plan to introduce other objectives and rewards later in the development, but this seems like a good starting point.
And here are other neat things we did:
Server selection UI now shows Steam friends registered on a server and their profile pictures, including their status (online/offline).
The High Table window in-game (default V button on your keyboard) shows Steam profile pictures of all registered players, including their status (online/offline).
Bug fixes

Fixed the issue that prevented building placement on locations where resources were before their depletion.
