Rifters, we have released a smaller patch with no downtime. This patch focuses on smoothing out the first hour of gameplay in preparation for the upcoming Spring Sale. A lot of these changes have come directly from monitoring your experience and feedback. We are committed to making Lost Rift the innovative new Extraction Survival game that our team envisioned when we started this project.
Patch Notes
Gameplay
Complete rebalance of consumables:
Changed the inventory size of all resources to 1x1 - weapons, backpacks, and armors still take multiple inventory spaces
Made healing instant on everything except the healing tonic
Removed the regular chest from the building menu and replaced it with the shared chest, which allows players to auto-pull resources from nearby workstations:
The cost of a small shared chest is the same as the previous cost of a regular chest
The cost of medium and large shared chests was decreased
Existing regular chests persist in the world, but they are no longer buildable
Regular shared chests are unlocked from the start of the game
Streamlined the early game experience:
Increased stick drop rate from trees and on the beach near Wade
Placed a dead hyena next to Jess ' body
Added bow and arrow on the way to Jess’s cave
Added a torch and a backpack next to the cave entrance
Bug Fixes
Fixed bugs that made it difficult to select a display/resolution.
Fixed a common GPU crash
We cannot understate how pivotal player feedback has been in shaping our long-term plans, and it will continue to guide our work as we expand Lost Rift with our community’s support. Stay tuned for future information on our next patches and our new update coming at the end of the month - this will be a big one!
