Update #15 Experimental Branch

Hey survivors,

We're releasing an experimental branch for Update #15: Custom Scenarios, and we're keen to hear your thoughts.

General guide to experimental branches:

  • Play at your own risk. Experimental branches have minimal testing, and saves may not work with older or newer versions of the build. We strongly recommend a new save to keep it separate and to back up any saves that are dear to you.

  • We'll be collecting feedback in a specific survey form. You can find the survey in the Main Menu of the game in the experimental branch or here: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/7DTRJZZ

  • Keep your survey responses focused on the game experience. Use the usual bug reporting methods to report bugs.

  • There's a dedicated Discord channel to discuss thoughts: https://discord.gg/intothedead

Update #15 experimental branch information:

  • Added Custom Scenarios: Tweak elements of the game to create your own unique playthrough.

  • To access Custom Scenarios, please choose 'New Game' and then 'Custom Scenarios.' This mode replaces the 'Custom' difficulty option that previously existed.

  • If you have never played the game before, you will need to complete the tutorial in order to unlock Custom Scenarios. If you have played before, it should already be unlocked.

  • Custom Scenarios is designed to be progressive - that means that you'll add more starting survivor and starting shelter options as you discover them in either the main game or a custom scenario game. This isn't retroactive - if you currently have an existing game, you'll still need to find survivors and locations fresh when playing Experimental #15 to add them to the Custom Scenarios roster. Come back and try new combinations once you've unlocked more!

How to get to the experimental branch:

  • Open your Steam client

  • Find Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days in your Library

  • Right click the game and open 'Properties'

  • Navigate to ‘Game Versions & Betas’ and select ‘experimental_0.18’

  • Launch the game

If you need to change back to the default public version of the game, follow the same steps but select ‘Default Public Version’.

Catch you in Walton City.
