Kazakhstan: Zhasymbay Lake



Hello, friends. Today I present to you the lake of Kazakhstan. It's something I've never done before. Location Kazakhstan is a fully software-generated terrain. From the relief to every blade of grass - everything is done algorithmically. My job in creating this location was to formulate the rules for generating terrain and arranging several houses and points of interest.
As a result, the location turned out to be completely open and you can travel everywhere. wherever you want, and also, disembark by boat wherever you like. You are given complete freedom of action. The habitat of the fish is also generated algorithmically and even I do not know where this or that species lives from those populated on this base.

About the lake: Lake Zhusymbai is a fictional lake and is a compilation of several lakes in Kazakhstan. Namely, oz. Markakol, Lake Jasybai, Borovykh Lakes, and also, Lake Kopa.
The species composition is selected in such a way as to display the most characteristic fish species for Kazakhstan found in these lakes. Of course, these are not all types of fish that live there, there are hundreds of them, but I chose those that are caught most often.

The location is available from level 35

Also, in the update:




  • Adjusted the poses of the character when taking out fish, as well as fixed the angle of lifting gear
  • Correction of the line of bends of some gear when fishing out fish
  • The casting range of light baits (2-10 grams) has been adjusted in order to get closer to reality
  • An installed reusable item, when it is picked up, returns to the same cell (if possible) of the inventory from which it was installed. If the cell is occupied, it just gets into the inventory
  • The Winter Fairy Tale event is over

New Year's events



Hello friends. I invite you to the far cordon to the event location "Winter Fairy Tale"

New Year's events will last until January 13 inclusive



Stage 1: Christmas Tree decoration


Every day, a daily task will be available at the Winter Fairy Tale lake, after completing which you will receive a Christmas tree toy. Having a toy, activate the Christmas tree and get a buff on experience and the price of fish for 4 hours, as well as a snowflake. The more decorated the Christmas tree is, the more buff you get.

If you close the lake for a bronze medal, tasks with an increased reward will become available to you.

If you have decorated the Christmas tree to the maximum, and you still have toys, you can use them, getting additional experience (from 5 to 20 thousand)

* All fish on the lake Winter Fairy Tale has a special tag "winter" that doubles the price of fish
* Keep in mind that getting a new buff before the old one expires does not update the buff. No need to decorate the Christmas tree with several toys at once, you will lose time of increased experience




Stage 2: Christmas Tree decoration


A fully dressed Christmas tree begins to give gifts. Each gift contains a certain amount of money (from 500 to 10,000 coins) and a random gift of ordinary and rare items.

The gift is available once a day.

Constantly during the event


For the snowflakes you receive, you can buy special Christmas products in the store. Also, snowflakes can be earned by completing regular tasks on this base.

If there are more than 100 people on the location, the chat stops broadcasting green fish. If 500 people are in the location, the chat stops broadcasting the blue fish, only trophies will be displayed.

Tents available now



Hello, friends.
In this update, I completely redesigned the internal structure of the installed items and now they are not removed if you exit the game, but remain in the same place where you installed them (this does not apply to the mechanics of installing the rodpod, chair, bucket and lamp). In the future, I plan to use this system to create your own spaces, craft tables, furniture and decor.


Changes to version 1.183.0


  • The "Autumn Chest" offer has been removed from the store
  • Tents have been added to the game. The tent is a portable point of rapid movement. By installing a tent, you can quickly move to it from anywhere on the map. You can buy a basic tent for in-game currency in the store (in the equipment section)
  • Recipes for re-crafting tents into tents of a higher grade have been added to the craft table
  • A tent for real money has been added to the donat store
  • The system of installing items has been changed, now you can put several lamps, buckets, bonfires and so on. However, keep in mind that the game supports only three light sources at the same time and if more than three lamps are installed, some of them will no longer shine.
  • The task display system has been changed. Now the task looks like a card of the appropriate color
  • In the coordinates search window, they can now be entered not only through a dash, but also through a colon or a space.


Clubs:

  • When completing supply tasks, the club treasury is now replenished. The base value is 30 coins per supply. In addition, a player who replenishes the treasury by depositing supplies receives additional club points.


Also, work was underway to improve the quality of the picture and optimize the game.

Data center accident

The server is temporarily down due to an accident of the network part of the data center. Specialists of the center are working to eliminate the problem.

Atomic Week!



From October 25 to November 2, the game hosts an event dedicated to the game's birthday.

On the bases of Belarus, Italy, France, event daily tasks are available, after completing which, you will earn a ticket to a special event location "Atom: Wastelands".

Move to the wastelands and catch apocalyptic mutants and more. Good rewards are waiting for you in the tasks, and special screw sets and other unique items are available in the location store. For those who wish to purchase event kits for real money - they are also available in the dollar store of the game.

In addition, the mechanics of creating groups have been added to the game. In order to invite a player to a group, right-click on his nickname in the chat, and click "invite to a group". If the player is not in another group, he can accept your invitation. If you are in a group, then you see each other on the map and in the game. The maximum number of players in a group is five.

Open Beta is available now



Hello friends. I invite you to open beta testing of the updated game client.
In this beta test, you are invited to try a new system of lighting, shadows, color correction stack, vegetation rendering (trees and grass) and performance. The changes affected all locations, but all new technological improvements were implemented for testing at the Danube location.

This beta version is open in order to identify possible critical rendering errors on some video cards or computer configurations at the testing stage and fix them in advance.

Therefore, no matter what computer you have, switch to the beta version, go to the location "Danube" and report on how your graphics card and processor behave. I am interested in any data - is there a drop in performance, is there any improvement, maybe there are graphical errors or black textures somewhere.


In addition, a new color correction control menu has been implemented in the beta version, many player animations and other improvements have been fixed according to your reports.
