WIP: Churches, Campfires and More


Hello Deadsiders!



We have a lot to share with you today. First off, we have created a video that covers everything in this post in great detail, and shows off some features that we can’t display through text, like the new audio features. So if you have the time, go ahead and give it a watch:



Also, Deadside is currently 35% off until March 10th, so if you are looking to grab our game before this big update, now is the time!

We have a few new features to cover, starting with new structures. As you might already know, update 0.5.0 will come with a map expansion, but the already existing areas of the map will be getting some new content as well. We have added many new buildings to the towns in the map, most notably two churches, one with a graveyard. These churches are located in the southern areas of the map, and can be found right outside of the towns they are in.



In our last steam post we covered water wells, and we mentioned that those wells are just the start of an effort to flesh out our survival elements. Now we can begin to show you what that means, first off with these plastic water bottles. These will spawn around the map, and can be filled up at water wells, or at a base water collector.





Not only will water become more accessible, but cooking will be as well. In update 0.5.0, we will be giving you the ability to gather sticks, by using your knives on bushes. You can then use these sticks and a lighter to create a campfire, and cook food. With this system, you no longer depend on a large axe to cook your food, taking up an entire weapon slot. Although, you can still cook with logs if you would like.

Speaking of food, both food and water will be returning to the safezone trader, but at a relatively steep price. So, the option is there for you in case you need some emergency food, but unless you plan on spending a fortune on canned fish, hunting out in the world is probably going to be your best option to keep your character alive and well. Other items will be returning to the traders as well, giving them a much wider selection of weapons and equipment to choose from. Just like the food though, you can expect the prices of higher tier items to be steep. And finally, Roaming Traders will be getting a rebalance as well. Now, these traders will always have the same selection of both weapons and armor, with their prices being more affordable than they previously were. These Roaming Traders will also start purchasing your items for more, giving you the opportunity to make even greater profits.



When it comes to weapons, both their sound design, and recoil will be improved in this coming update. As for the recoil, these are all balance changes, it's clear that some weapons like the AR4 are simply too good, while other weapons aren’t good enough, so changes are being made to address these issues. For weapon sound design, the sounds of bullets have been greatly improved. Now you will hear bullets ricochet off some surfaces, and you can also hear the snap of a supersonic bullet flying past your head. The ambient noises of Deadside have significantly improved as well, and we highly recommend you watch the video that we linked above, to give these new sound effects a listen.

Lastly, we have the Boats. They continue to be a challenge, over these last few months, the boat system has been redesigned many times, weeding out bugs as they pop up. Despite the many challenges and delays, progress is being made. As of right now, update 0.5.0 is entering the closed testing phase, meaning that the update is beginning to be finalized. We don’t have a release date for you just yet, as there is always the chance that a major issue is found during closed testing, but it's still good news nonetheless.

Thank you for reading, we hope to bring you more good news as soon as we can.

WIP: New Weapons

Hello, Deadsiders!



The arsenal of weapons in Deadside continues to grow, here are a couple fully textured weapon models that were just recently completed;



This is the NK417, we have already posted the un-textured model here on steam, so here is the fully textured final version. This DMR will be chambered in 7.62x51, a brand new cartridge to Deadside. This is a DMR with modern ergonomics, large magazines, and a full power cartridge that packs a punch. The NK417 is sure to be a fearsome weapon in the right hands.



This PDW is small, compact, and chambered in 9x19. It has a rail to mount on optics, and it will be the first 9x19 weapon in Deadside to have this feature. All that combined with its unique look, will make this an interesting addition to your loadouts.

The team continues to improve and add on to the arsenal of Deadside, do you have any suggestions for us? Share your ideas below in the comments, or on our Nolt platform

WIP: Water Wells & Update Status


Hello, Deadsiders!



We have lots of news for you today, starting with a new feature, Water Wells!








These wells will provide water for players to collect with their Flasks. No longer will you be limited to searching for Sodas in towns, or going home to your water collector, you can now find consistent water sources while you are out exploring the world. Using the Well doesn’t come without risk, beware of ambushes and traps set up by other players.

This feature is the first of many planned features that aim to expand and improve the survival mechanics of Deadside, giving players more options to find food and water in between their usual missions.

You can expect to see this feature released in update 0.5.0.



As for the status of update 0.5.0, the team is still working hard on getting the boats to a complete and playable status. Most importantly, is the network performance of the boats, and the game server itself under high server load. So, optimization needs to be done to meet this goal, which takes lots of development time. Your patience during this time has been greatly appreciated, we hope to deliver you this update as soon as we can.



And finally, the role of Deadside’s Community Manager has changed, so, if you would allow me to pull back the curtain a bit, hello everyone, this is Loaf speaking. I’ve been with the Bad Pixel team for about a year now, my previous work on the game has been mainly focused on the weapon systems. But what most people know me for, are my YouTube videos focused on Deadside, some of you may have seen my Insider Preview videos in previous posts like these. But now I have been selected for the role of Community Manager, and I’m extremely excited to begin communicating with you all.

Previously this role was filled by Lucas, and he did an excellent job, but unfortunately, his time was spread very thin between the community, and anti-cheat tasks. Now that I’m here, Lucas has a lot more time to devote towards anti-cheat and technical issues, while I can focus solely on communicating with you all. I hope that this change will help the community grow going forward, and I will try my best to make that happen.

Thank you for reading, we hope to share more news soon.

Christmas Event | Update 0.4.2 Is Live

Hello, Deadsiders!


Bad Pixel and the entire tinyBuild family would like to wish you an upcoming Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Our sincere and warmest congratulations along with the 0.4.2 Update!

At 07:00 am PDT / 14:00 GMT on December 16, the New Year's themed update 0.4.2 will be deployed on live servers.

⚠️During the update deployment, servers may be temporarily unavailable. The game client needs to be updated.

Winter holidays are already upon us and a festive atmosphere fills the world of Deadside. Traders decorate Christmas trees in safe zones, and your enemies diligently make preparations for the encounter by applying themed camouflage to their weapons. Deadside is a hard place and Santa Claus has been busy delivering his gifts to all the residents. You will have to seize them during your firefights.



We have also changed the timings for the raid and the raid token, as well as the chance of its drop, upon death of the player:

  • The lifetime of the raid token has been reduced and now it can only be activated within 5 minutes after the player's death;
  • The raid time is limited to one hour;
  • The chance of a raid token drop has been increased from 20% to 33%.


Attention of owners of private servers!



All raid settings in the admin panel will be reset upon deployment of the 0.4.2 update. If you have used custom settings, please set them in the server admin panel.



The roadmap for 2023 goes next. Stay tuned!

Thank you for staying with us! See you by the Christmas Tree! :)

State of Development: Update 0.5.0


Hello, Deadsiders!



A picture is worth a thousand words. Let's start with the most exciting!

Teaser of the Update 0.5.0:




Now let's get down to the subject and shed some light on the progress of the 0.5.0 Update.

At the dawn of Deadside, the Bad Pixel team decided to create a server-sided game so that the main load and all verifications were performed on the servers. Vehicles have not become an exception, despite the complexity of the implementation of the feature with this approach.

Update 0.5.0 is the next technical evolutionary leap of Deadside. The team has done a huge job rewriting the UE4 net code, implementing lots of client and server optimizations, refining and fixing the technical part of the game.

Complex technical solutions require additional resources and time to finalize and test innovations by developers and the closed test team, which deserves special thanks for their participation and contribution to the development of the game.

Now we need to make sure that the 0.5.0 Update will bring not only new features and content to the world of Deadside, but also a new quality of the game. Even if it takes extra time. We are aware of how much you are looking forward to the update and the Bad Pixel team is doing its best to deploy the 0.5.0 Update as soon as possible. Passion and involvement are the forces that have always moved the project up and helped it grow. But for now, patience is the key. The team puts all their efforts to provide you with the best result.

Last but not least:



Don't miss the insider preview of the update by Loaf



We are also adding to the update several in-demand features, that have not been previously announced. Stay tuned.
