Known issue notifications are to disclose the thoughts of the Dev team regarding errors that occur while installing or playing the game, in-game bugs, or status(progress).
They will be announced as often as possible according to the progress of reports from players.

📌 Recently resolved or reflected 📌


✅ Measures against the Satellite Station boss Grima and some NPC freezes are in progress
✅ Strengthening anti-cheat and security proceeds from time to time

🚧 Issues to be fixed in the next update 🚧


❗ The time of application of these fixes may be delayed due to the priority of the update preparation process, but they will all be applied as soon as possible.


🔧 Planning to improve the Buildingcore resource-to-energy conversion rate
　　🎤Dev Comments🎤
　　💬We plan to adjust the energy conversion rate for resources to make it easier to maintain
　　the Buildingcore energy.

🔧 Improved Floor installation method when constructing housing
　　🎤Dev Comments🎤
　　💬There were some users who had difficulty installing the Floors, so we plan to make
　　housing installation more convenient.

🔧 Planning to improve Gamepad support

🔧 Expansion of the area available for housing construction is in progress
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬Currently, major buildings (major bases and facilities) are restricted from being built to
　　prevent monopolization and abuse by some users. However, since we are aware of the
　　inconvenience caused to survivors, we are considering reducing the restricted area,
　　and will reflect some in the next update.

🔧 Adjusting the cooldown time of beds and sleeping bags
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬Since the cooldown time of beds and sleeping bags are directly related to the balance of
　　combat and attacking major facilities, a rather conservative balance was applied.
　　We plan to adjust the reuse time through the opinions of survivors and game data analysis
　　during the early access, and these balance adjustments will continue.

🔧 Fixed an issue where some words could not be used as nicknames or on chats

🔧 Scheduled to be improved so that daily missions can be performed while riding in a vehicle

🔧 Hunger reduction mitigation system to be introduced in residences(housing)
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬In situations where survivors are away due to various reasons, we are making improvements
　　so that hunger status effects lessen in player bases with a building core installed and powered.
　　We think seeing the death screen after a long phone call with a close friend should occur
　　less often this way!

🧪 Scheduled to strengthen Strider and Strider EX's hacking security function
　　🎤Dev Comments🎤
　　💬We deeply sympathize with the survivors' opinions about the lack of security capabilities of
　　crafted vehicles(Strider, Strider EX), and we plan to upgrade more powerful security features
　　compared to the general world spawn vehicle (Dynamo).

🧪 The issue where the result is not reflected when the daily mission is progressed in advance
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬We plan to reduce the inconvenience of recreating installations that have already been
　　installed for daily missions.

🧪 Scheduled to modify the UI of storage box use around the character to be more intuitive

🧪 Fixed an issue where the character could not aim below fully

🧪 Shots(Syringe) and armor balance improvements related to the radiation area
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬We are adjusting the performance of shots(syringes) and armors in consideration of
　　the difficulty of the Orbis base and facilities.

🧪 Fixed an issue where the hotkey worked when using the search function on a workbench, etc.

🧪 Issues with installations being installed improperly
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬We are considering improvements for issues such as not being able to place items
　　like a workbench very close to the walls or automatically aligning depending on the direction
　　the character is standing.

🧪 Changing existing settings for Single Player mode
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬We are considering a modification function for survivors who must have been frustrated
　　because it was impossible to change the settings in the middle of Single Player mode.
　　You can change the Single Player mode settings by modifying the contents of the file located
　　in the folder below.
　　- Folder location: >\Dysterra\Dysterra\WorldSettings\SinglePlay.json

🧪 Planned improvements to the long crafting time of forges
　　🎤Dev comments🎤
　　💬The existing balance was set to encourage the forges to operate automatically while
　　the player explores the world and loots major bases and facilities,
　　but we are considering introducing the ‘Forge Upgrade System’ as quickly as possible
　　to incorporate opinions from players.
　　We will be back soon with better and hopefully more intuitive forges.

Prior to the announcement, we would like to apologize for the rollback issue that happend on 25th of November. We proceeded with rollback to recover from damage caused by illegal unauthorized use of cheating programs.

We will constantly strengthen our security function and try our best to minimize damage from use of cheating programs. When we get reports on possible use of cheating system, we will make sure we conduct a quick investigation and take measures.

In addition, those who get caught using illegal/unauthorized programs will be disclosed through a separate notice.

[Dev Note] New Skill tree menu, (Skin) Random box, Inventory management and more
Greetings from Orbis!

Early access is almost here!!!! I hope you’re all as excited as I am! It’s been a long road from when we first set pen to paper to start drawing concept art and character designs for Dysterra. I’m so happy to see all of you amazing(and magnificent!) people waiting on the edges of your seats for our launch into Early Access. Thank you for encouraging our team and helping us make Dysterra into what has become.

We’ve got a new set of upgrades for the skill tree, a random box(of skins!) you can earn, an inventory management system, and a new attack for the cyclops.

📒 Skill Tree Upgrade


We’ve added a third tab to the skill menu: COMBAT

The new combat skill tree consists of two main tiers: “fast reload” and “specialization.” And each tier has a skill for improving only a specific gun-type: short-range guns, mid-range guns, long-range guns, and rocket launchers. I think “fast reload” is pretty self explanatory. “Specialization” reduces durability lost when firing a gun.



We’re hoping this will give players more choices on how they can choose to play the game. Beginners might spread their skill points between different gun types, while Dysterra veterans might prefer to throw all of their skill points into a single gun type.

The choice is yours!

📒 Random Box


Some of you may remember that we added the “Terra Shop” to our game’s lobby. One of the things we’ve added to the shop is a random box. Each time you open a random box, you’ll unlock 3 new skins that you can use when crafting in-game. Note: You won’t receive any items when you open a random box, but you’ll be able to craft new items with the skins you unlock.



So how can you purchase these new skins? With Terra Points! We want to reward survivors who play frequently as well as ranked survivors, so there are two ways to get Terra Points (TP):
1. Log in daily.
2. Weekly TP rewards according to your global ranking.



📒 Easier Crafting With Remote Chest Access


We realized a lot of players were struggling with inventory management. Running back and forth between your crafting bench and your storage chests can get tiring. And we wanted to make it at least a little easier.

We’ve modified the inventory UI so you can see what’s in nearby chests and drag and drop items from one chest directly into another. You can even open up a chest and craft directly from inside it!



📒 Cyclops Now Shoot Lasers!



The cyclops is definitely the most dangerous Orbis robot out in the wild. It initially had a slicing attack for close range, as well as a jumping attack for mid-range… Now we’ve added a laser attack to the cyclops to keep players on their toes no matter where they are.

Good luck staying alive out there!



There’ll be one more update before our launch next week, but our partner-streamers are already playing the game. So jump on over to twitch to get your Dysterra fix!

[Dev Note] New Hyena Designs, a New Item, and More
Greetings from Orbis!

Brrrr! It’s been getting cold out lately. We’re all sweating at the brow here in the Reality MagiQ offices trying to polish everything in our game before we launch into early access later this month.

There’s a lot more to unpack this week. We’ve visually redesigned all of the hyena soldiers, toughened up high end vehicles, added detection drones to the game, and updated the facility skill UI.

📒 New Hyena Troop Design


The Hyena soldiers didn’t feel quite human enough, so we decided to take the visors off their helmets and let them breathe some fresh air while they’re waiting to put a hole in your head.




While we were at it, we also tried to more clearly differentiate between the 4 different types of Hyena soldiers.



📒 Stronger High Level Vehicles


Have you ever been driving along in the Dysterra wilderness, minding your own business, when BAAMMM!!! You ran over a landmine. And then another one. And @#$%!! ANOTHER ONE!!! This isn’t looking good…

Well worry no longer. The Strider and Strider EX now come with a thicker more mine-resistant undercarriage as well as stronger anti-rocket paneling to keep you from unwittingly dying while you’re out and about. Vehicles are expensive to make, and we want to make sure you get to enjoy your investment.



📒 Drones!


Imagine this: You’re outside a building, ready to loot it, but you want to know how many NPCs are inside. Maybe you’re out of bullets and want to avoid them, or maybe you’re looking to kill them and loot their bodies as quickly as possible.

Well now you can throw a scan drone up in the air, and it’ll tell you where and how far different NPCs are.

But be warned: it won’t tell you the locations of other survivors, so you can’t use it to see if anyone is home before you raid a base.



📒 Improved Facility Skill UI


We’ve also been working on fine-tuning our game’s interface so it’s more intuitive for survivors that are new to the game. This week’s focus was on the facility skill UI.

The layout should feel a lot cleaner and simpler, and first time users of a facility controller should have a much easier time deciding where and how to use their new toy.



That’s it for this week’s dev note.
I’ll be back next week with even more updates!

Orbis thanks you for your service!

[Dev Note]Improvements to Vehicles, Enemy AI, Hacking, and Terrafire countdown
Greetings from Orbis!

For all of you Dysterra-holics out there, here’s the latest Dysterra news for you to read while sipping on a homemade hot chocolate and watching what’s left of the Autumn leaves change color outside your living room window.

This week we have quite a few vehicle updates, changes to hacking success rates, improved enemy AI, and a modification to the Terrafire countdown.

🏎️ Flip Your Car Upright🏎️



We’ve all rode our Strider off a cliff or over a ridge and somehow flipped it on its back… unable to use it ever again. Some survivors have been creative and were able to get their Strider on all four wheels with the use of a friend and some careful maneuvering.


Now you can build and drive your vehicles without worrying about eventually flipping it.
When, not if, you eventually flip your Strider again, long-hold “F” to access the ring menu, and you’ll find an option to flip your car back to how it should be.

👻 NPC Detection of Stealthed Survivors👻


We realized the Stealth protocol was a bit OP at times, so we’ve added the ability for enemies to sense stealthed survivors under certain conditions. NPCs will now be able to sense if a stealthed survivor walks, runs, crouches, or lands nearby and will run towards wherever the sound originated.

Additionally, even if the player is not taking any action, NPCs can sense motionless survivors if they are very close to the NPC.


🌋 Improved Terrafire Countdown🚀


If you’ve conquered a facility, then you’ll know that you get a phase controller that can be used to add/subtract days from the Terrafire eruption countdown, while also adding a positive/negative effect to an area of the map.

We saw the number of days go up and up and up and up, and decided that it’d be best to put a cap on it. For now, the cap is set to 365 days of in-game time(1 in-game day = 1 real-time hour, so just over 15 days), but that number may be fine-tuned in the near future.

💻 Improved Hacking Success Rates💻


Not everyone has tried hacking yet, but for those that have, we understand that there were far more failures than successes when trying to open a secure crate. We’ve revamped the hacking calculations to make hacking success rates more intuitive and player-friendly.

Before: Hacking success was calculated purely by each survivor’s own personal success rate.

Now: Each type of security crate has its own hacking success rate, with lower level Tiers being easier, and high level Tiers being more difficult. This success rate can be modified by leveling up hacking skills.

🏎️ New distinct design for the Strider EX🎨


Rather than using color to distinguish the Strider EX from the Strider, we’ve instead chosen to redesign the EX so it has its own visually distinct shape.



🏎️ Store Items in Your Strider🧳


Every car should have a trunk (or a boot if you’re from East of the Atlantic).

Now you can store items in your Strider or Strider EX by holding “F” to access the ring menu, and accessing “Vehicle Management.” Currently, the Strider has 10 slots while the EX has 20 slots for you to store your hard earned loot.



🧑🏽‍🤝‍🧑🏾Discord Changes💜


We’ve revamped our discord server to prepare for Dysterra’s release into Early Access on November 23th, 2022(PST).

As some of you may have noticed, we’ve updated our discord server with a cleaner, hopefully more intuitive layout. Check out the recent post on our discord to learn more about what we’ve done.

Hi Survivors,
This is Dysterra, we are very excited to announce our Early Access schedule to all our survivors.

Ever since our Alpha test that took place in March of 2021 until the 4th Beta that took place last September, we were able to better our game based upon your valuable feedbacks.
For this, we would like to give this credit to our fellow survivors that have participated and supported us throughout our consecutive tests.

Dysterra Early Access will launch on November 23rd (PST)



In the time remaining till our Early Access launch, we will do our best and make a thorough effort to prepare better Dysterra.

In addition, pre-launch for Partner Streamers will be conducted before the start of this Early Access.

[Dev Note] Reinforce Equipment Durability, Mech suit, TerraShop, Skins, New Guns
Greetings from Orbis! Director K here with another developer update for you.

I know you’ve all been waiting in anticipation for another chance to play Dysterra. And our team has enjoyed seeing the creative memes you’ve been posting in the Discord channels.

Over the past month, our developer team at Reality MagiQ has been hard at work making improvements and adding even more features to the game.

📒 Reinforce your equipment! ⚒️


Durability low? Not any more!
Introducing Level 2 repair benches! They come with all of the same features as
the Level 1 repair benches, but with the ability to increase your items’ total durability.

We heard players’ complaints about needing to bring several guns on a facility raid,
and now that should be a thing of the past.
For example: Instead of packing two guns with their default durability, you can upgrade one gun
so it will last longer while you’re exploring the map or taking down a facility.



📒 Rideable mech suits! 🦾


Our team was thinking… 4-wheeled vehicles are great and all, but what if it was possible
to stomp around in a juggernaut suit and blast enemies with a volley of rockets?

Well now it’s possible. Players will now be able to control Proto-Juggernaut suits while fighting
the Delta Plant bosses. They’re currently only accessible inside the fighting arena, and you can’t
take them through the portal (balancing reasons and all). So be sure to try them out the next time
you drop by the Delta Plant in the Delta region.


📒 Skin Systems 🧵


We’ve added new skins for you to enjoy. They can be collected by watching Dysterra streams on Twitch, or by completing missions in game. There’ll be a good mix of skins ready,
so be sure to grab them!

📒 The Terra Shop 🏪


For all of you survivors wanting to look sharp while you’re running through the Geolab, or doing donuts around your friend’s base in your new vehicle, we’ve added a Terra Shop to the game’s lobby screen. This is where you can buy all the latest outfits and get new skins for your guns.

You can buy things from the Terra Shop with terrapoints.
But what’s a terrapoint you ask?

Terrapoints can be earned daily by logging in, and they’ll also be paid out weekly to players according to their ranking tier. You can think of it as a wage paid out to the survivors that work the hardest to mine Terrasite for Orbis. Once you’ve earned enough terrapoints, you’ll be able to spend them to get all kinds of weapon or armor skins.

📒 New Gun Type 🔫


And finally, we’ve added two new guns to the game to give you more choice in your style of gameplay:

DMR SW-1 Venator


A rare-tier(blue), light ammo designated marksman rifle(DMR) with better armor penetration than standard DMRs, giving you that extra edge when you’re fighting for your life.

DMR ASW-82 Stalker


An epic-tier(purple), light ammo designated marksman rifle(DMR) that has a smart-ammo ability. Shooting a target marks it, and each successive shot will bend and twist through the air towards
its marker.

The catch?
The marker is reset when you cancel it, or line-of-sight to the opponent is lost.
Opponents using the stealth ability cannot be targeted. Shots taken using the smart-ammo
ability cause less damage than shots taken normally.

I’ll be back next week with even more updates!
Orbis thanks you for your service!
