We’re excited to share some new attachment upgrades this week. After doing some playtesting, we heard feedback that some aspects of the construction system could be improved, so we got to work. Right now you can only upgrade doors but soon players will be able to upgrade any attachment in their house from torches to LED lamps, rickety chairs to thrones, on and on.
We added some other building options to make your apocalypse shack a home this week including half round walls and thatch doors.
And for those with more elegant tastes, metal spiral staircases.
Tech Improvements
This is the first week on the brand new server, this hardware is amazing, we are on literally the fastest per thread server CPU in the world, the Intel 10700K, this has at least doubled our player capacity.
We will be upgrading to a 10900K as soon as server motherboards are available. We’ve made improvements to the login system that should now allow dozens of people to login simultaneous instead of hanging the client.
There have been huge AI improvements, we have tested with over 500 AI attacking a player and the server handles it like a champ.
AI can now step up higher so you can’t keep the hordes at bay by making a slightly elevated front step and we worked out some player persistence problems that were causing performance issues.
Since You Axed
We added a couple of new axes this week. The first is a new metal axe that looks more like something you’d find at the end of the world than its previous iteration. It is perfect for chopping down trees (which no longer momentarily disappear when chopped down.)
The second is a more hefty 2 handed saw-blade tool of destruction.
Progress is being made on building out the area around the Thorcon power plant to make the safe zone a bigger and better place.
And we’re continuing our work on post processing for day and night. Here’s a look at daybreak on the beach before
And after
It’s the Small Things
When you’re playing any game, the animations can have a big impact on taking you out of the immersive environment. If something feels off, it can be distracting. So that’s why we improved all of the first person harvesting animations. Our place holder machete animations are gone now as well!
We’ve also made some tweaks to campfire and torch animations. No longer will there be a 1 second delay when you need that fire!
Lastly, we fixed the animations on our Trophy Collectors. You can clearly see the heads they throw flying through the air again before exploding in a cloud of poisonous gas.
Community Fixes
Mahalo to our testers who help us every week discover what's not working and point out what needs fixing. Your feedback and ideas are hugely important to us! Here’s everything you found and we fixed this week.

There’s no doubt that discovering a new building or big landmark in a game can be exciting. As players of survival games ourselves, we know how fun it is to explore a large structure, looking for hidden loot or whatever else may be living inside. It’s one of the reasons we’ve spent a ton of dev time making our Comm Tower, Thorcon Power Plant, and Veilstation great places to explore. We also thought getting there should be just as much fun.
Are We There Yet?
We’re always going to be adding more stuff (closed-alpha means we can keep testing / adding / breaking), so for the roads more and less traveled, as well as the little stops in between, we wanted to give exploration fans reasons to get excited.
This week we focused on improving some of those in-between areas and our diorama system. The system automatically places interesting things to see and loot to scrounge along the trails, paths, rivers, and roads, basically everywhere players commonly travel going from place to place.
Whether it’s an old pool table salvaged from the ruins and the losers from the last West Maui 9-ball tournament,
a kitchen table and knife set repurposed as an emergency medical station,
or a make-shift shrine, there are plenty of reminders on the island of the thriving Maui that existed before the fracture. All signs point to the ingenuity of the handful of survivors who made it through the cataclysm.
Travel Insurance
All that stuff is great, but players can make great tactical use of many of the items they find along the roads, rivers, and beaches as well. Taking shelter behind a barricade is a great way to decrease your profile and avoid getting shot.
Even a car door can provide a little cover in a pinch
and if you need a place to hide there are very few options as good as jumping in the back of a truck (as long as you don’t mind a few bodies.)
Hitting the Road
It’s not all scrounging for canned goods and hiding on the road. The bodies strung up on street lights are good for target practice and look especially spooky at night.
The gas tanks and discarded fuel containers you find scattered around the map can help make every encounter a one-shot kill.
Getting There Is Half The Fun
There’s a lot of traveling and exploration in survival games and we want to make sure that our paths not only tell a story, but offer players something useful and interesting along the way.
If you want to spend your time ambushing players from the back of a truck, blowing up mutants with explosive barrels, or just taking in a sunset while looking for supplies, our diorama system has something for everyone.
Beta Keys
The end of our systems update is in sight and we know how eager many of you are to get in the game. We appreciate your patience! We’ll be handing out new testing keys again soon. As always, a big mahalo to our current testers who help us find bugs and provide great ideas for the game. We love your feedback!
Here’s a list of everything you found and we fixed since the last play session.
Aazlor - Outline on the building part that is going to be upgraded so you can see what you are upgrading
Eldisty - Can’t see other players muzzle flashes/bullets and there are no sounds
nubkid - AI hitching once more than 60 were spawned
Maikowl - AI on constructed pieces
Schism3110 - Mutants should not be able to open doors with padlocks or totems
zaccsi - AI Sliding
Azshire the Great - Spawned in God Mode
Larry - Server crash when building

There’s no doubt that building something is one of the best parts of a survival game. Whether it’s a bridge, a look-out tower, or a communal base for stashing loot and security, a good construction system can really draw you into a game. We’ve done a big overhaul to our construction system recently, and this week we completed metal, the last (for now) of our building material options.
Teamwork Makes The Dream Work
Building a little hut in the woods can be fun, but if you pool your resources with others you can build something big very quickly.
We’ve spent a lot of time refactoring the construction system, making huge improvements in performance, and this week we added metal as our 4th building material option. It may be the most durable but the other materials available have plenty to offer players too.
Thatch
While it may not have worked out too well for the first little pig, building a base out of dried grass is a great option in Fractured Veil. Thatch may be the weakest material but it is also the cheapest in terms of resources required to build. In a relatively short time, you and a few friends can build a sprawling beach base with a great view of the water and shoreline.
Wood
A little stronger than thatch and absolutely beautiful, wood is a favorite around here because of how good it looks with the jungle as a background. We’ve included decals and markings inspired by traditional Hawaiian designs. It even looks great illuminated by the light of a drone.
Stone
It takes a lot of rock pounding to construct, but a stone structure can take a beating. It’s not just the durability that makes stone a good building material, it is as pretty to look at as it is strong. With totem inspired poles and Hawaiian designs etched in the rocks themselves, stone is a great material for a house or an outpost guarding a stream.
Metal
Last but certainly not least is our newest option. Metal is the most durable material currently and the most time consuming to collect.
A collection of siding, diamond plate, old pipes, scraps and empty cans (even SSHAM, Lahaina's favorite processed meat product) metal building materials look the most like something you’d be able to buy at a post-apocalyptic home improvement store.
We’ve made sure to add a number of decorations and accent pieces to the collection of metal bits to provide a cohesive feel with the other building material.
With the completion of our metal construction materials, causal players and those who hate to logout alike have great looking options to stake a claim to a bit of Lahaina and build a home base.
Beta Keys
The end of our system updates is right around the corner. In truth, we’ll be testing and building for many months to come but the window allowing us to let new testers in the game is almost open. As always, a big mahalo to our testers who help us find bugs and provide great ideas for the game. We love your feedback!
Here's a list of everything you found and we fixed since the play session last week.
Schism3110, scud, and zaccsi - Can’t place foundations, intersection issues
After server crashes multiple issues with players until killed
Server crashes after attacking building
Aazlor - issues with upgrading the L stairs from thatch to metal, shape/direction changes

Maui is famous for jaw-dropping beaches and turquoise waters and making the shoreline its own special place is something we've worked on since the very beginning of our development. This week we completed work on a tool that will help us bring our beaches to life and give players great new places to build and explore.
Beach Diorama Tool
The new beach diorama tool allows us to quickly and efficiently generate a number of different objects and scenes along the shoreline.
Placing these reminders of the world that existed before the Fracture used to take us hours of setting up by hand before the tool was completed.
The new system even allows us to add loot and props to structures nearby.
Exploration
We know how much fun it can be to explore new areas and find those special spots, hidden away until you search for them. There are many unique places and lots to see along our shores now.
Bits of the world frozen in time since the collapse of civilization dot the beach.
There are structures to check out for shelter, water, or maybe a surfboard or two.
The numerous wrecks along the beach are perfect for exploring any time of the day, even the middle of the night.
Beach Houses
It may be a bit further away from resources when compared to building a house in the jungle, but building on the beach has some great benefits. Not only is the ocean a beautiful looking backdrop but it can act as a natural barrier to help you avoid danger. It doesn’t matter if you’re building a stone fortress on a sandbar
or a simple grass shack, there’s plenty of open spaces for players to build on along the beach.
Natural Highway
With the new beach diorama tool in place, players can fully enjoy one of Maui’s most iconic features. Traveling along the sand can be a good way to investigate some of the more dangerous parts of the island, with a clear path of retreat if you need it. We want the beach to be a place for you to meet up with other players, scrounge for resources, and an interesting place for you to explore with an occasional reminder of what life used to be like on the island.
Beta Keys
The end of our refactor is almost here. It’s true that we will be in a state of testing and building for months to come but we are narrowing in on a window when we can open the game up to new testers again. Mahalo to our current testers who help us find what needs fixing every week and providing great ideas for the game. We love your feedback so keep it coming!

Early in development, we focused a lot of our efforts to bring the lush wilds of Maui to life and do justice to the beautiful Lahaina sky. This week, we’re excited to share updates on hidden places and the area’s beneath your feet because we know it's fun to explore and discover new areas in places you’d least expect to find them.
The Fracture
Since the collapse of Veilcorp’s global teleportation network wiped out civilization and most structures on the island, every now and then survivors need to seek out shelter underground. We’ve focused on three different subterranean areas for players to explore at this point in our development, with more to come down the Lahaina road.
The Thorcon Sub-Basement
With a literal welcome mat at the entrance, the sub-basement is probably the easiest of the underground areas to find.
This area is deserted (for now) and filled with machinery that has continued working for decades without any human interaction. Our goal is to eventually introduce enemies and other threats to player’s health and safety, as well as resources and loot.
The Sewer Shelter
Probably the hardest to find, the entrance to the sewer area is hidden in an old industrial area overrun by mutants.
Obviously someone spent a lot of time working down here. They even pieced together a respawning bed.
The Cave
We were talking about bringing in some new elements to the world and immediately one of our developers mentioned a cave system. He wanted to give players the excitement of 1.) trying to find it and 2.) building anticipation and anxiety as players went further and further in. Would they be able to navigate it right away? Or get lost?
These are the types of questions we are asking during our weekly playtests. Having a new player come to the entrance (we’re not telling where it is) and not knowing what they will find makes us giddy.
Featuring twisting tunnels, mutant markers, and bioluminescent fungi the cave is the most untouched new area. The entrance to the cave from the outside world is one of the most beautiful spots in Lahaina.
Keep it Moving
More than just a place for a subterranean fun-run, these spots give players a reason to explore the map in addition to helping us naturally guide their movements to new areas.
We want to send players to discover rare items, find resources and crafting plans, complete quests, all while providing a possible place for an instance type experience down the road.
Beta Keys
It’s been longer than we expected to get these major system updates done and to be honest, once they are finished, the world is still under construction. We’ll be testing features and new systems for many months ahead, but hopefully, we’re narrowing in on the window when we can open up the game to new testers.
Mahalo to our current testers who help us find what needs fixing every week and providing great ideas for the game. We love your feedback so keep it coming! Here's a list of everything you found and we fixed since the play session last week.
Aazlor - Spawned with stamina I had at death
Zaccsi - Need icon to show that you are burning
Larry - Big Bob AI clips out

Since our game is set in Maui, from day one of development we’ve spent countless hours fine-tuning and balancing the performance of the sky and weather systems.
Nothing immerses you in the environment like a stunning sunset or breathtaking sunrise. It’s enough to make you forget there are mutant hoards waiting around the corner, ready to kill you.
TrueSKY Update
It’s been a couple of years since we’ve updated our systems and this week we implemented a massive TrueSKY update to our world and it’s never looked better.
Here Comes the Sun
More than just creating a pretty sky, the new weather system covers the lighting that comes from the sun, and the underlighting from ambient light simulating sunlight bouncing around.
We know that fans of survival games notice when there aren’t any changes to the weather, so this update means more than just better-looking rain. This new change allows us to optimize weather patterns and times of the day.
[previewyoutube="juFIiHwrKAw;full"]
Night Sky
We can now fully utilize the weather in the game making it another obstacle players need to overcome with rain and temperature, or an ally helping you avoid danger with the cover of night.
Max Settings
Besides all the tactical and aesthetic benefits, this update has also cleared up years worth of backlogged bugs and provided huge performance improvements. Here’s a look at one of our weather tests while we were fine-tuning the Lahaina sky and playing around with max settings.
Beta Keys
There's only a couple of weeks of rebuilding and updating work to be done before we're ready to hand out keys again. We know that many of you are eager to explore the wilds of Lahaina and we appreciate your patience while we make some of our foundational systems better. Mahalo to our testers who help us every week discover what's not working and point out what needs fixing. Your feedback and ideas are hugely important to us! Larry, we fixed that dying while reloading bug you found during last week's play session.
