Survivors,
We've been working on new ways to play Wasteland Outpost, and we're ready to share our latest update: two new game modes, improvements to the core experience, and fixes based on your feedback.
New Mode: Co-op Survival
Team up with friends, gather resources, and build a shared base to withstand increasingly dangerous waves of enemies.
- Face stronger enemies as the waves progress.
- Battle a boss every 10 waves.
- Choose a 20-wave, 40-wave, or endless run.
- Select from three difficulty settings, with different preparation times between waves.
- Use the four-minute opening preparation period to get your defenses ready.
New Mode: Battle Royale
Every survivor for themselves. Scavenge for weapons, ammunition, and equipment, then fight to be the last player standing.
- Explore a dedicated map variant with combat-focused loot.
- Stay inside a shrinking safe zone that shifts as the match progresses.
- Watch the map to plan your next move. Remaining outside the safe zone deals damage.
- No building: survival depends on scavenging, positioning, and combat.
Inventory & Interaction
- Fixed cases where opening a crate or storage container displayed only the player's inventory.
- You can now switch between nearby containers using the interaction key without closing your inventory first.
- Moving out of range closes the container panel while keeping your inventory open.
- Ground resources can now be picked up while the inventory is open.
- Fixed interface conflicts involving sprinting, the inventory, and the building menu that could leave the HUD hidden.
Core Mode & Bots
- Improved bot positioning during construction to prevent bots from standing inside the structure they are building.
- Fixed bot construction animations.
- Corrected unnatural body tilting when bots attack elevated targets.
- Building placement previews no longer collide with players or push them around.
- Event notifications now hide when the match ends.
Stability
- Improved handling of sign-in failures and reconnection attempts.
- Improved client-state cleanup after matches and when returning to the main menu.
Thank you for playing, testing, and reporting issues. Your feedback helps us improve Wasteland Outpost.
See you in the wasteland!
