Update. Dynamic events, solo dungeons and reworked tutorial.
Stalkers!
We present you a list of changes included in today's update:
New launcher
– From the moment the update is released, all five project servers will be available to all players on all platforms! That is, any player on any platform can now enter both the RU1-3 and EU1/US1 servers.
You no longer need to have several game clients on your PC at once — everything will be available in one place.
Note! If you have an account on the Steam platform, you can only log in to the Steam platform. The same with the VK.Play platform.
In other words: if you previously played on servers RU1-3, after the update you enter your username and password in the same way and continue to play as usual. If you played on the Steam/VK.Play platforms, click the corresponding button to log into your account.
Now all users will have the opportunity to conveniently create a new account by logging in through popular platforms.
Basically, click on the icon of the platform you want and create a game account linked to your account on this platform.
List of available login platforms:
Gmail
Yandex
VK
Odnoklassniki
Mail.ru
Epic Games
Dynamic events
– Dynamic events have appeared in the world of the game, which occur with a certain frequency in all locations except “Lesnaya” Station, Liubech and New Land’s Southern Is..
In the first iteration, three kinds of events will appear:
Helicopter crash site;
Broken old lorry;
Small bandit camp.
Each event has different rewards and frequency of appearance in locations.
Dynamic events activate in random places on the location. If you are nearby, you can receive notifications about an active event: the main one tells about what’s happening here, and the additional one tells you that the area in which the event is taking place has been temporarily added on the map. We recommend thoroughly searching the event areas after they have been cleared!
Note: Since this is the first iteration of such events, after the release of dynamic events we’ll collect information through player reviews and statistics on servers. If necessary, we will adjust the balance and also move towards adding new kinds of events.
You can learn more about these events from some NPCs.
Tutorial / “Lesnaya” Station
– The logic for tutoring new players, quests and starting locations has been reworked (Warehouse and “Lesnaya” Station). Tutorial has become much more engaging and understandable.
– A large number of visual changes to starting locations.
Solo dungeons
– Added 3 dungeons for solo playthrough:
The Station
The City Area
The Library
How to get into the dungeons?
The “Station” dungeon is a story-driven one, and you can get into it while completing the story at the “Lesnaya” Station. After the dungeon is completed, you can return to it by talking with Kochegarov at the Liubech railway station.
You can get to the “City Area” dungeon by contacting Doctor Garin, who is located in the building next to the weather tower at the Airport location (D3-1).
Note: To access the event, the player character must be at least level 35 and have completed the "In the depths of the laboratory" story chapter.
You can get into the “Library” dungeon by contacting the Security Guard near the gate of the complex in the Black Forest (J2-1).
Note: To access the event, the player character must be at least level 80 and have completed the "In the depths of the laboratory" story chapter.
We recommend you to prepare thoroughly before completing the “City Area” and “Library” dungeons!
Note: The rewards and difficulty of solo dungeons will be balanced as part of future analytics.
