Deadside news & patch notes

Hello Deadsiders!

Tomorrow at 9AM CEST / 2AM CDT, we will begin the release of version 1.10! ⚠️Warning: During the patch deployment, servers may be temporarily unavailable. Game client update is required The Modkit will be rebuilt with the update. Mod authors should make sure to test and verify that their mods continue to function correctly after the update deployment. Update 1.10 is focused on bringing you new content, while making some minor changes and bug fixes in the background of course. Here are the most notable features you can expect to see:

• New Prison and Port POI in E5
• Unique mission in the Prison location featuring a heavy-armored boss
• New weapons — Improvised Crossbow & Mosin Launcher
• New consumable — Prison tea
• New decorative items that can be found in the Prison location
• New heavy armor —available in damaged condition from the boss only, but can also be crafted
• New item — Gold Watch for reputation

In addition, we’ve made important balance improvements to the systems that affect the overall gameplay experience. Based on your feedback, we’ve significantly reduced the amount of resources required to upkeep vehicles at the base, while also adding new blueprint spawn points in the form of folders. Furthermore, blueprints can now spawn in the game world in stacks, increasing their availability and improving progression in the early stages of the game. Thank you for helping us make the game better. Now let’s take a closer look at the new features in this update. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/74499d3b572189356a837a9ce3bab7ef7c49fae1.jpg Taking a look at the new areas around E5, we have a new port and a high security prison complex, both featuring new missions. Additionally, Epic Missions now feature a heavily armored boss. This boss is much tougher than your average AI, carrying high tier weapons and new heavy armor that can only be found on him. Encountering the boss in cramped interior spaces like those found in the prison could lead to a very deadly situation. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/46dd164061dab1d3f2f91fcda18ce65b4457b833.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/0cc820db2a3b27a181a9e0b668becb0676dc8d09.png Also included in this version are two new improvised weapons, the Crossbow and Mosin Launcher. First up is the Crossbow, an affordable weapon that can be thrown together with a few weapon parts, a couple planks, one machine oil and a blowtorch. Its ammo is even easier to make, just a couple planks and some nails. The Crossbow delivers deadly blows silently, making it an extremely useful tool for those who prefer to stay stealthy. But the projectile is slow and not the most accurate, limiting its range {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/afb7153f0bc935310648176c52cb59b0d1c37faf.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/3a9103ed00369a836640e919a812f7c3d5f5787f.gif This update also brings the Mosin Launcher, a weapon created by welding some attachments to a normal Mosin-K. This allows it to fire improvised explosive grenades, another new and very deadly craftable item. Compared to the GRM-40, the projectiles of this improvised launcher fly slower and have less range. Plus the sights aren’t as clean. Even still a grenade launcher can still be an extremely effective weapon, improvised or not. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/108bcc17e337a301c120303ac46159990f4be5d3.gif Version 1.10 adds a new drink to the game, Tea! Specifically Prison Tea, an extremely strong tea with a massive dose of caffeine. It allows you to run and reload 20% faster for 15 minutes, at the cost of -25 food. You can even craft this yourself if you find a few boxes of tea lying around. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/ee11a1578bdb23c7157283b30cbc51cc0b15990e.gif Lastly we have the new decorative items that can be found at the new Prison POI. These include a bunch of new posters, plus table top games like Chess, Backgammon and Cards! Also found at the prison and other areas is a new rare gold watch that can be sold for extra reputation. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/a1268aec26f101a799be8f7d730c30feaaf43185.png Of course that isn’t everything included in 1.10, there are lots of cool little changes and bug fixes included in the full patch notes below:

Hello Deadsiders! In the next few hours, we will begin rolling out Hotfix 1.9.2 for PC! The patch fixes an issue with blueprint progress being reset. Unfortunately, the progress of blueprints lost due to a bug cannot be restored. We apologize for the inconvenience. ⚠️Warning: During the patch deployment, servers may be temporarily unavailable.

Hello Deadsiders! On May 7th at 11AM CEST / 4AM CDT we will release update 1.9.1! At the same time, we also plan to open 4 more PvE servers in Europe to reduce queue times. This balance patch is based directly on feedback from our community. We have been carefully listening to the concerns shared by our players, and in this update we hope to address some of them. Our goal is to find the right balance between survival challenge and gameplay comfort. Some of the changes in this update may not look radical, but this is an important step toward finding that “golden middle ground” where the game remains immersive and challenging while also being enjoyable and less frustrating to play. Getting into the changes, first lets cover food and water. We have seen feedback from players saying they feel like they are forced to gather food and water too often during gameplay, restricting what they can do. So we have made multiple changes to keep hunting rewarding while increasing the amount of time your character is satiated. Food and water drain has been reduced by 10% to 33%, depending on the player's actions. The only thing that hasn't changed is water loss while sprinting. The character now has 25 minimal food and water on a respawn. The amount of food from forageables has been increased slightly as well to keep you alive early game. Importantly though, cooked meat now increases the maximum amount of food and water. +25 for fish, +35 for duck, and +30 for deer. Duck meat also increases your max HP slightly (+4), with deer giving a better bonus of (+6). The effects stack, so you can increase your satiety value up to 200. These changes mean that you won’t be hungry as often if you invest the time into gathering good meat. This keeps the hunting rewarding, while restricting you as a player less during normal gameplay. As an added bonus, mission rewards now have a chance to drop canned food as well. Another area of improvement in this update is a reduction to weapon maintenance and crafting costs. Generally reduced by ~10%, though the specific values can be found in the patch notes down below. Your supply of machine oil and other repair items will now take you further, allowing for more crafting and upgrades. Loot spawning is being adjusted as well, with base materials like nails, planks, and rope spawning in larger quantities. Getting a basic base started will now take less looting time to keep progression smooth. Lastly, the rate that vehicles slow down from damage has been reduced. Now if your vehicle is above 50% durability, you will be able to travel at full speed. This allows you to operate a vehicle for longer without stopping for repair, rewarding those who invest the time maintaining their vehicles. Those are most of the big changes included in this update, check out the patch notes below for all the details. We are still listening to feedback and will continue to make changes, so please let us know what you think!

Hello Deadsiders!

In the next few hours, we will begin rolling out Hotfix 1.9.0.1 for PC! This is a small patch featuring important balance improvements based on community feedback In the latest game update, we emphasized survival mechanics. Based on your feedback, we may have gone a bit too far. Securing food and water has become quite a challenge, especially for new players. Therefore, we are implementing the following changes:

• The number of mussels on the shores has been doubled
• The number of apples has been increased by 25%
• Well capacity has been increased from 100 to 150 units
• The recipe for building a Water Source has been simplified; it now requires 2 units of polyethylene instead of 4

The reduction in the number of missions on the map was implemented to make it easier for players to move around the map and loot. As the number of players on the server increases, the number of available missions should also increase. However, we did not take into account that a large number of players occupy many locations where missions can spawn. We have now made the settings more aggressive; there should be noticeably more missions on full servers. Several changes related to vehicle wear and tear:

• Vehicles found in the world will now be in slightly better condition, allowing you to drive them longer at a comfortable speed.
• Boats will now appear more frequently.

⚠️Important: We have identified several locations on the map where players could potentially block river traffic. With this patch, the river depth in these areas will be increased. As a result, players who have already started building along the riverbank will no longer be able to expand their base along the riverbed, though they will still be able to build upwards. ⚠️Warning: During the patch deployment, servers may be temporarily unavailable. Game client update is required Bad Pixel Join other survivors: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/14b2a43107720d5145756999ddb35c20d4866a54.png Twitter Facebook VK YouTube Official website {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/f76b8312285a555598d47b9bb93372f6cf29cff6.png

Hello Deadsiders!

On Wednesday the 29th at 11AM CEST / 4AM CDT, we will release version 1.9! Version 1.9 is easily the largest update so far this year, bringing huge expansions to progression, crafting, and the Mirny map itself. Balance changes have been made to loot spawning, AI, trader prices, medical items, vehicles, the list goes on. On top of that we have new base structures and decorative items for you to craft and construct. Thank you to everyone who sent in feedback during the extended testing period, it helped a lot when dialing in balance and hunting bugs. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/bed6c4c995d2cf5f4e840f830826bec06a09bc91.jpg The release of this update to the live servers will require a wipe. All items, bases, safezone storage and player inventories will need to be reset for the update to function correctly on release. We cover everything included in this update below, but if you would prefer to see these features in game our CM Boots has created a video covering the entire update: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CNuSl45sG4 One of the biggest changes coming in version 1.9 is the new blueprint system, aimed to expand and deepen progression, and the in-game item economy. This has opened up the ability to research, craft, and upgrade items all at your base. You can view your blueprint progression in the new blueprints tab in your inventory. Here crafting recipes are unlocked by finding blueprint fragments. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/aa91064b0412d95b955f9fbe6b1460cc6e1b8e14.png Blueprint fragments can be found anywhere from car trunks to airdrops, with rare fragments dropping from high tier events. Or you can use the new research table to convert an item into its corresponding blueprint. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/b6393f7893718f32994e2b78d0348ea153635cb7.jpg Some blueprints, specifically weapons and armor can be continually upgraded to higher levels. Each level unlocks a new upgrade that can be applied at the upgrade station. This allows players who invest the time into gathering the required blueprints and materials to have access to improved kit. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/443d376ae92389c969544ce469a2bc2781281ce5.gif Another huge feature of 1.9 is a large expansion to the Mirny map! Lets go through each new area {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/ae1ba616f73a8056824e879a81c24f09929c1c0f.png The Potny island has been added into Mirny, located E6-7 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/c0f0abafe0dc85ddf00412aa3fd60f3fe92f34ea.png Added a Scrapyard to I10, offering lots of scrap to loot {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/27e7a29817470529eaf140bc6325707b0ed5c1bc.jpg Added a farm to G10 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/e087238af9a201452c1307b4f83cc0d99fa33eb5.jpg Added a construction site to H3 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/8e008b61f1c42601b2f3d689f64bcb60ff6e37a6.png Added a village to K9 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/9f9d4bdc63ea14b616d2a66739e2063c415799bf.jpg Added a village to J10 {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/c35eaaa7140d61f7b268ca8ba05fa3dec9cf6a50.jpg Added an oil storage facility to J7 Another new island has appeared next to the Potny islands. This island is currently completely empty, but many interesting things will appear on it in the near future. Keep an eye on our socials for news on this island. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/14c333cfe61f3818707440f245e992ccdd4d6874.gif Signal flares can be found in the world, or purchased from traders. This new item can be thrown down to call an airdrop wherever you like! Each color of signal flare provides airdrop loot from a different category. Red provides weapons, ammo, and explosives. Green provides gear and armor. Blue provides resources and crafting materials. Purple provides food and medicine. So if you are missing supplies in a certain area, you can have them delivered directly to your base. Last update we got a lot of feedback on the subject of weapon repair, so we have decided to simplify it in this version. You no longer need unique weapon parts specific to that weapon, instead there are weapon components with different types, and tier. For example a tier 2 sniper needs tier 2 sniper parts for repair. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/6c2ef398067b4d57018884a0d0ab8ce52f54ec6c.png That being said, weapon repair will require a few other materials like machine oil, sterile rags, and weapon components. These common parts are used for all sorts of weapon crafting and upgrading in 1.9. Bases will be getting new structures as well, for example offset doors. These make it much easier to navigate your base using stairs, and give builders more options. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/ef9d4f1b9e6337cfc59ee54abc0c327193d7ea1a.jpg We have also added a fireplace, which is now the most efficient way to cook your food on top of just looking nice {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/8ac43b75205eab754dccbd4dc0afb5f474ec542e.jpg An important crafting item added in this version is the CNC Machine. This is the highest level of crafting workbench, allowing you to craft high tier items if you have the blueprint and materials required. The CNC Machine will allow you to craft many useful items that you would previously only purchase or find. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/38150e90a35f283bd056edde9727ac35b5d6c037.jpg The last base addition are 4 decorative face masks, which can be either placed on your wall or crafted into a wearable version {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/d537a132cca5c8d4c3cf152f95be3169bda550b6.png With all of these big changes coming to crafting and progression, it only makes sense that loot spawning and traders have been rebalanced as well. There are a lot of minor changes made here, but big picture is that high level gear is generally harder to acquire. Now that you can craft a lot of it yourself, we needed to reduce accessibility in some areas to prevent high level gear becoming too common overall. So high level weapons and armor have been removed from the traders, and ground spawns. The best way to get them now is through high level events, or crafting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/67d307f5b03a587e645af573718b71d41baf58c1.gif That being said, high level gear is still technically available at the trader through random lootboxes that you can purchase with in-game money. This gives you something fun to do with your money at end game stages, or potentially a way to get powerful gear early if you are willing to gamble As bases become more important to gameplay, the balance of explosive spawns for raiding has become more important as well. In version 1.9 explosive spawns lying on the ground in the world have been removed. This means to gather explosives you will need to do events like missions, helicrashes, or call down airdrops. Not only does this result in more fair gameplay, it prevents explosive gathering from becoming a stale experience of farming the same world locations over and over. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/663ea9525992384ad4787fb5ed127ae9297f3415.gif In version 1.9 we have been talking a lot about crafting and base building, but an important aspect of a survival game is keeping your character alive by eating and drinking. These elements have been in Deadside for a long time, but we aim to make them more relevant in this update. One big change being a significantly reduced amount of canned food and bottled water in the world. Water wells will be a dangerous hotspot for players again unless you have water collectors at your base. Food will still be available at traders, and there are many other sources to gather food from across the world. Deer spawns have been increased, you can hunt duck, fish, gather apples, berries, mussels, or mushrooms. To keep this system fair you will now respawn with the amount of food and water that you died with. This is nice if you spent the time collecting food and water, not so great if you ignored these needs. In the case these stats reach zero, you will respawn with these values slightly increased so that you have a chance. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/94ee7343ec910a81e5c5ba9b5c93fca73f63df9e.jpg This approach to improving survival and progression applies to vehicles as well, so we are looking to expand vehicle maintenance. Before a player can constantly use a vehicle long term, they will first need to repair and refuel the vehicle they found for it to be useful. With this approach vehicles are treated more like a luxury that you need to invest in. It's also worth noting that the vehicle cap has been largely increased in version 1.9. This keeps vehicles easy to find while not being overly present during normal gameplay. The final design of this system is still being worked on, potentially requiring specific parts to be installed or repaired. In the meantime the changes to vehicles below reflect this approach to balance within existing systems; Vehicles now gradually wear out during long usage Added audio for damaged vehicles with more breakdown sounds occurring as vehicles wear down Vehicles now spawn in the world slightly damaged {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/50655329791bb65f2e31e79876be43fe1813bee1.png Many of you are likely familiar with the loot crates opened by red keys. These gray crates offer weapons with unique skins, however they present a problem in gameplay where players can get high level items with very low risk. So in version 1.9 locked crates will drop the new skin applicator instead of a weapon. These are single use items that can be used to apply unique skins to weapons, keeping the original purpose of locked crates while improving gameplay balance. Lastly, let's talk about AI balance. With the recent weapon rebalance included in the last update, we got feedback that they had the effect of making AI too accurate and dangerous. So we have made two major changes to AI, first being that military bots are simply less accurate overall. The second is a change to their hearing system to make suppressors a more viable option. AI are less reactive to suppressed shots overall, while being especially ignorant to suppressed pistols allowing you to use stealth as an effective tool. Thanks for reading, let us know what you think about this huge update!

Hello Deadsiders!

With the start of the 1.9 PTS, we have some information for our modders about compatibility. For modders who want to ensure their mods are compatible on release, we have ways for you to test in our official discord. Version 1.9 makes some major changes to items with upgrades, progression with blueprints, and changes to level design with the map expansion. All of these have the potential to break mods. We also plan to make fundamental changes to the water and drinking system as well in an upcoming 1.9 build. If you are a modder and would like to test your mods compatibility before the release of 1.9, we have opportunities and instructions for you on our official discord. Enjoy the PTS!

Update 1.9 Features:

Mirny Expansion:

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/443d376ae92389c969544ce469a2bc2781281ce5.gif The south west of Mirny will be getting a new desert island look with the addition of the Potny area. Located in E6-E7, this new dense region offers a new area to explore directly connected to the spawn zone. Another new island is being added to this area as well, but as of this test work in this area isn't finished just yet. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/ae1ba616f73a8056824e879a81c24f09929c1c0f.png We have also added six new POIs to Mirny; a scrapyard (I10), farm (G10), a construction site (H3), two villages (K9, J10), and an oil storage facility (J7). Older territories have been adjusted to fit in the new areas, and empty areas of the map have been improved.

Blueprints:

In version 1.9 we want to significantly expand the list of items a player can craft themselves, deepening the in-game economy and giving our players more options in their progression. Now you can unlock blueprints to craft weapons, armor, attachments, and more all at your base. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/aa91064b0412d95b955f9fbe6b1460cc6e1b8e14.png Here we have the new blueprints tab, it shows the complete list of blueprints in the game grouped according to the workbench on which the items are crafted. In this example all the recipes are still locked, you can unlock them by studying blueprint fragments. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/11db358c542429d54270eb4b0e7f65559f4eccab.png Blueprint fragments can be found everywhere, from car trunks to heli crashes. Once found you can right click on them to study. Another option is the new research table, here you can dismantle an item converting it into the corresponding blueprint fragment. If you already have a recipe already unlocked, surplus fragments can be sold to traders. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/b6393f7893718f32994e2b78d0348ea153635cb7.jpg Weapon and armor blueprints can be continually researched and upgraded. Each blueprint level unlocks potential upgrades that you can apply at the new upgrade station. If you meet the level requirement and have the required materials, you can apply upgrades that increase the performance of your gear. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/b2199421915e762c333657d2fa5ae0b292a56287.png Those who have spent the time leveling up their blueprints will be able to explore new possibilities with their gear. Many more items can now be crafted at your base using 3 different base items. Workbenches will allow you to craft basic items, the Advanced Workbench allows for mid game items, and the new CNC Machine for complex high level equipment. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/38150e90a35f283bd056edde9727ac35b5d6c037.jpg This new blueprint and crafting system is a huge change to Deadside, so we would really like to hear your feedback during testing. Balance and progression is a complex subject, so the more data we get from you the better. We expect players will have differing opinions on the subject and we can't please them all, but we do have the modkit available so that anyone can create the gameplay they prefer.

Weapon Repair

Speaking of weapons and crafting, version 1.9 comes with a highly requested change to how weapons are repaired in Deadside. We have heard your feedback and decided to simplify the weapon repair system. There are no longer unique weapon parts, just common and rare parts. For example, an S85 will require common sniper parts, while a VSD will require rare sniper parts for repair. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/6c2ef398067b4d57018884a0d0ab8ce52f54ec6c.png We have also added weapon components used for crafting, upgrading, and repairing weapons. After learning the blueprint you can craft these with scrap metal and spare parts at an advanced workbench. Weapon components have many important gameplay uses, making the required scrap and spare parts even more important to gather.

New Airdrops

Airdrops have been in the game for a very very long time, but never before have you been able to call one down yourself. Now if you acquire a signal flare, you can drop them in any location you want! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/14c333cfe61f3818707440f245e992ccdd4d6874.gif You can find signal flares in some locations across the map or in some event rewards. Alternatively you can purchase them directly from the trader if you have level two reputation with them. There are 4 flare variants that call down airdrops with different loot inside. Red gets you weapons, ammunition and explosives. Green gives you armor and equipment. Blue gives you resources for crafting and base building. Finally Purple has food and medicine.

Base Building

Bases in Deadside have been important for a long time, but with this update your base becomes even more critical to your progression and gameplay abilities. On top of that we have seen that on some PvP servers only a few large and experienced teams are able to build their base to a significant size, raiding any others that appear. Now less explosives will spawn in the world overall, with the main source being gameplay events like missions and helicrashes. Now that bases continue to see added depth and importance, this change will give new or solo players more of a fair chance. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/ef9d4f1b9e6337cfc59ee54abc0c327193d7ea1a.jpg With these base changes also comes more items to build with, for example offset doors. These were made per player request for convenience with stairways, though we are sure players will find other creative uses for them. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/8ac43b75205eab754dccbd4dc0afb5f474ec542e.jpg If a campfire or grill wasn’t cozy enough, we now have a large fireplace ready to be installed in your base! In addition to looking nice, this fireplace is now the most efficient way to cook your food. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/d537a132cca5c8d4c3cf152f95be3169bda550b6.png We have also added 4 decorative masks that can be hung on your wall, or crafted into wearable versions to intimidate your enemies.

Survival Mechanics

Deadside was originally conceived as a survival game, but as of late food and water haven’t been impacting gameplay much unless you need to spam certain healing items in a pinch. So some gameplay changes have been made to keep these features relevant. One big change being a significantly reduced amount of canned food and bottled water in the world. Water wells will be a dangerous hotspot for players again unless you have water collectors at your base. Food will still be available at traders, and there are many other sources to gather food from across the world. Deer spawns have been increased, you can hunt duck, fish, gather apples, berries, mussels, or mushrooms. To keep this system fair you will now respawn with the amount of food and water that you died with. This is nice if you spent the time collecting food and water, not so great if you ignored these needs. In the case these stats reach zero, you will respawn with these values slightly increased so that you have a chance.

AI Balance

With the recent weapon rebalance included in the last update, we got feedback that they had the effect of making AI too accurate and dangerous. So we have made two major changes to AI, first being that military bots are simply less accurate overall. The second is a change to their hearing system to make suppressors a more viable option. AI are less reactive to suppressed shots overall, while being especially ignorant to suppressed pistols allowing you to use stealth as an effective tool.

Trader Changes

Now that many items can be crafted at your base with blueprints, changes have been made to the trader’s inventory and pricing for proper gameplay balance. Most notably, high level weapons and armor will no longer be sold to prevent them from becoming too common. But if you have more money than sense, you may still have a chance. Traders now offer a handful of cases that offer different sets of random items when opened. Those willing to gamble might just get lucky! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/67d307f5b03a587e645af573718b71d41baf58c1.gif Other various changes have been made as well like item pricing, plus both traders now purchase the same set of common items from you for convenience.

Medical Item Rebalance

Changes have been made to the medical items for better balance overall. For example basic rags provide less hp than before, just +3. Sterile rags just +10.

Vehicle Improvements

Optimization of our vehicle system has allowed us to increase the amount of vehicles available on each server. Additionally server owners can now customize the amount of both land and water vehicles individually

Loot Changes

With all of the features listed above like trader changes and blueprints, it's safe to say that the in-game economy of Deadside will take a new form. So logically the balance of loot spawns will need to follow suit. In general loot boxes are now more random, containing a much larger pool of items. High level weapons and armor will no longer be found just laying around, you will need to craft them or find them in event rewards. Just like the trader changes, this keeps meta items from becoming too common now that you can craft them.

New Skin Applicator Item

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/50655329791bb65f2e31e79876be43fe1813bee1.png Many of you are likely familiar with the loot crates opened by red keys. These gray crates offer weapons with unique skins, however they present a problem in gameplay where players can get high level items with very low risk. So in version 1.9 locked crates will drop the new skin applicator instead of a weapon. These are single use items that can be used to apply unique skins to weapons, keeping the original purpose of locked crates while improving gameplay balance. And those are the major changes included in version 1.9! Hop in the Public Test Server and give these features a try, we would really appreciate any feedback you have. We plan to run this test for longer than normal so that we have time for testers to really get a feel for the new progression, and so that the team has more time to make changes. Stay tuned for news on the release date!

Hello Deadsiders!

In this short WIP post, we would like to show you all a handful of areas that we plan to add into the Mirny map in our next update. We have taken some POIs from procedurally generated maps, and imported the entire Potny map into Mirny! These new POIs will further populate areas of Mirny that were formerly empty in the south. For example the south west side of the map hasn’t seen a lot of traffic outside of base building and Kamensk. Now the Potny map connects it to the south end of the spawn zone, allowing players a new way to progress to the southern areas of the map. Outside of these new POIs, our team is working on the implementation of blueprints, as well as a couple unique weapons that we hope to show soon. Below is a map highlighting the new areas, as well as a few screenshots. Let us know what you think! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/12b04201f2c4f69172fc4d4cc560c0920ed19d46.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/c0f0abafe0dc85ddf00412aa3fd60f3fe92f34ea.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/9cf80d1e36c1f8461f3fe957720222a8edcaafb2.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/8d7b8f3db39f5ff516cd0aecc73a01a573ae8e66.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/734a38e858664f77be55b58c4a7ca6e08f8747a2.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/27e7a29817470529eaf140bc6325707b0ed5c1bc.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/8e008b61f1c42601b2f3d689f64bcb60ff6e37a6.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/991976efe6193e1ce52557a947d1dfea08cb8bbc.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/013f1cb39aa83d039af90578af42aecc26b0778a.png Bad Pixel Join other survivors: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/14b2a43107720d5145756999ddb35c20d4866a54.png Twitter Facebook VK YouTube Official website {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/f76b8312285a555598d47b9bb93372f6cf29cff6.png

Hello Deadsiders!

Our team has substantial (and exciting) plans for 2026, and in this post, we will outline them as transparently as possible, as well as summarize the key learnings and takeaways from last year. First things first, we hear your feedback loud and clear. Currently, the whole Bad Pixel team is focused on tuning bots’ vision and hearing, fixing loot generation, adding new base decorations, and revisiting the game’s economy - all of that being the main feedback points you’ve shared with us. Expanding Deadside’s PvE aspect and adding more depth to the game overall are also in the pipeline. In the upcoming update drops throughout the year, we plan to:

• Expand the base production system
• Expand the list of craftable items and resources
• Add new production & comfort modules
• Clear up bugs and issues

The next big update is planned for March, and we’re planning on filling it with highly requested changes like workbench improvements and, most importantly, increasing the map size on Mirny. Here is a brief sneak peek at what’s to come: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/7aa1c07f72cd327cd75d638bbae7a4fc8b366e27.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/fb7636c79cc3ca4914abc9a2bccede7fa1904dd5.jpg The March update will mark our return to the formula of more frequent updates - with monthly or bimonthly roll-outs and shorter dev cycles. We’ll explain why in a moment. In 2025, we shipped two big systems: Modkit and procedural map generation. The modkit was supposed to let our creative community members add their own content and tweak the game’s mechanics, and procedural generation was meant to give you basically endless map variations. However, the response from all of you wasn’t exactly what we hoped for. Each of those two systems took months of development. Our dev crew learned from it and will lean more toward the essence of what makes Deadside unique in the first place, while introducing compelling content you haven’t seen before with regular waves of improvements. Procedural map generation is on hold for now; however, we don’t want all the content we made for it to go unused. The plan is to bring locations created for the procedural maps (and more) over to Mirny. We’ve already started doing that in Update 1.8: several locations, originally made for procedural maps, have made in into the main area. And that’s not where the integration stops — we’re continuing to bring over more of these finished locations, and you’ll be able to explore them in update 1.9. We want to thank our mod creators for their awesome creativity, private server owners for stepping up and helping shape the game, and all of our active players for their honest feedback and the time they spend in Mirny. Our everlasting goal is to make the game better, and that’s what we’re going to put a special focus on during the ongoing twelve-month period. Thank you for reading, and stay tuned for more details!

Hello Deadsiders!

We have seen that some elements of update 1.8 have been met with mixed feedback from the community. Radical changes were made to several core systems, and we have gotten many suggestions to fix problems and make improvements. We hear you, and we’re taking steps to set things right. We plan to release update 1.8.0.4 on Monday, in the meantime read through the changes and let us know what you think!

Key Changes:

• Disabled AI damage to player bases
• Increased headshot damage on unhelmeted AI for lethal headshots
• Weapon repair parts added to the "Tools" section at Traders

The Details

AI Damage to Player Bases

Our goal was to make convoy hunting more challenging for players who prefer sniping bots from the safety of a "two-minute" twig base. We felt that upgrading to a log-tier base was a fair trade-off for that tactical advantage. However, some players began exploiting this mechanic to lure AI toward other players' bases, leading to total griefing and destruction. To prevent these unpleasant surprises, we are reverting this change. Your bases are safe once again.

AI Headshot Damage

The recent weapon balance overhaul was intended to specialize weapon roles and make PvP more predictable. We wanted to ensure a stray pistol shot from a distance wouldn't result in an instant player death. Because of this, headshot damage was significantly reduced, leaving only sniper rifles capable of one-tap kills (excluding helmets). Unfortunately, this unintentionally turned bots into bullet sponges. We are adjusting headshot values so that any weapon in good condition will kill an unhelmeted bot with a single headshot, provided you are within half of the weapon's effective range.

Weapon Repairs

The new repair system was the biggest point of contention. In 1.8, we significantly increased weapon durability (by 2–3x on average), meaning a mint-condition gun won't lose 50% of its durability in a single mission. To balance the economy, we made repairs more expensive and introduced a more realistic system involving unique parts and Machine Oil. The idea was to add a new dimension to the meta: weapon rarity. We wanted maintaining your favorite high-tier gun to feel like an achievement rather than just a button click. However, we agree that costs became prohibitive for especially rare gear. As a temporary solution: Traders now stock unique repair parts. These will be significantly cheaper than buying a brand-new gun just to scrap it for parts. The Future: We are planning a more robust fix by introducing a blueprint system that will allow you to craft these unique parts yourselves. We are also currently working on expanding the crafting system, which will include a new workbench and the aforementioned blueprints. Stay tuned for more updates, and let us know what you think about these changes!

Hello Deadsiders!

Tomorrow at 11am CET / 4am CST we release update 1.8! In this update we bring you more realistic and tactical weapons, an expansion to our workbenches, new base objects and lots more! To complement this new content, lots of rebalancing has been done according to your feedback to further improve combat and progression. And as a special treat, you have a new .50 caliber revolver to obliterate people with. ⚠️Store your weapons in your base! ⚠️ This update adds a lot more durability to all weapons, but those stored in your character’s inventory and safezone will not receive this added durability and appear broken. Only weapons in base storage will be adjusted ⚠️If you have a base on Mirny in G4, your base may be deleted ⚠️ This is due to the addition of a new structure on the beach, north west of the sawmill POI. More info can be found in this post below, directly above the patch notes Our CM Boots made a full video overview on v1.8, check it out! https://youtu.be/v6sqIRO9c94?si=blvRlDBgFjUIiwK- Version 1.8 brings a bunch of changes to weapons along with new attachments for them. We have completely rebalanced all weapons in the game to make them more realistic, durable, and specialized. Weapons have 2-3 times more durability, they are generally more accurate, and now deal damage based on range instead of a flat value. In our previous post about the public test we go into much more detail, you can also check our official wiki on release for the full stats if you are interested. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/7a343590eb0932a8bdd2e8cd89c0f086bfbf724e.gif Also coming in this update is the massive .50cal R-12 revolver! It has a slow rate of fire and not the best accuracy, but deals a scary 135 damage with each shot. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/4ff4c16765b2c6d2a428c70f5184d522c641f053.jpg One highly requested feature getting added this update are SMG and AR suppressors. These silencers don’t actually silence the weapon, like real life they only reduce the sound signature to make your reports harder to pinpoint. They won’t last forever though, eventually you will burn through your suppressor's durability that can’t be repaired. These attachments are rare, but we have added a bottle suppressor that you can craft. It has very low durability as you would expect, but it works in a pinch. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/20fde8d58cd7025da76380277f2b7d91c5c6589e.jpg Along with an overhaul to weapons, we have also changed up the crafting and workbench system. Lots of crafting will now be done at your base at a workbench, with more complex recipes requiring the more expensive advanced workbench. Weapon repair has changed a bit as well, now done at the new repair and dismantling workbench. Each weapon now has its own individual part, ensuring that rare weapons require rare parts for maintenance. Ammunition crafting is now possible as well using the new Ammo Bench. Using gunpower, scrap metal and other various components you an assemble ammunition of your choice right at your base. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/bd853c697432a21a63d20a51df349377fc007fab.jpg Update 1.8 brings more additions to your base with sloped roofing, wall carpets, and mannequins! Now you can display your armor, mount carpets on walls, all under a traditional looking roof. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/9621fd7d9959a80434981691cca35d65aa0b3986.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/2506f59126bf2e3e1ad26dd9640cfea1e0e845ae.jpg Some additions have been made to Mirny as well, with new industrial zone buildings. The sand quarry POI had its industrial zone improved with new assets, and the sawmill at G4 has a new industrial area on the beach. We aren’t doing any sort of wipe with this update, however if your base is close to the new industrial area at G4, it may be deleted to prevent clipping. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/68ef9f19c6c029b99e6ec0907b21a900a8949cc1.jpg Lots more has been added in update 1.8, check the full patch notes below!

Hello Deadsiders!

Today we begin the public testing of update 1.8!

We are very excited to hear your feedback during this test, as version 1.8 brings some major changes. Weapon balance and crafting has been completely rebalanced, with the goal to improve combat and progression. There is also plenty of new content like the R-12 revolver, new weapon mods like SMG and AR suppressors, sloped roofing, display mannequins, and more! No need to worry about a wipe as well, in version 1.8 you will retain all your progress! No wipe! ⚠️However, if you have a base on Mirny in G4, your base may be deleted ⚠️ This is due to the addition of a new structure on the beach, north west of the sawmill POI. More info can be found in this post below, directly above the patch notes In this post we will detail what you can expect from this update, but as always we have to mention that specific details are still subject to change. You may also want to begin the switch to the PTS branch while you read to save time, here are the instructions; How to connect to the Public Test Server (PTS):

• Right-click Deadside in your Steam library; click on Properties…;
• Choose BETAS, then select the “public_test_server - PTS” branch from the drop-down menu;
• Wait for the update to download and launch the game;
• Connect to one of the available official PTS servers, which depends on your location.

How to switch back to the live version of the game:

• Right-click Deadside in your Steam library, then click on Properties…;
• Choose BETAS, then select the “None” branch from the drop-down menu;
• Wait for an update to download and launch the game;
• Connect to one of the available official live servers depending on your location.

First up, let’s dig into the weapon rebalance as we have a lot to cover there. This rebalance addresses feedback from our community regarding durability, repair, and weapon accuracy. It also takes into account the new weapon attachments, as they shake up balance as well. We believe weapons are now more realistic, with each weapon having a more specialized role for more variety in gameplay. In general, all weapons will now be more accurate with higher muzzle velocity and less drop. To limit effective range, bullets now lose damage as they travel through the air. The rate at which they lose damage depends on the caliber, for example pistol and smg rounds will lose damage much faster than a rifle or sniper. This solution is more realistic, and simplifies shooting for the player. Weapon durability has been adjusted according to your feedback as well. All weapons have had their durability value increased by 2-3 times on average, meaning it will take 2-3 times longer for your weapons to lose durability. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/5110334affba99a21eed01ef338125c6ef8e65e5.png On the other hand, how you repair weapons has been changed as well. Previously we had weapon parts according to weapon type, sniper parts for example. Now each weapon has its own individual parts. So an MG-36 requires MG-36 parts to be repaired. This will make maintaining high tier weapons more difficult, as obtaining their parts will require more effort. Previously you could maintain your M99 easily with sniper parts, which you could get by grabbing a bunch of Mosins or S85s from a mission. Now you will need M99 parts, which are much more rare. Additionally, machine oil will be required to repair weapons at a repair workbench. Higher tier weapons will require more machine oil to repair. Because of this new use, the amount of machine oil used for vehicle upkeep has been halved. While those are the largest changes included in the rebalance, it's important to note that this is a complete overhaul. Every weapon in the game has had their stats and price adjusted. So if you want more details check the patch notes, and after the full release check the official wiki for all the nerdy data. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/fe63e09aa87cd60fd5d6184f2c32987b729afe27.jpg Next let's talk about another big change to weapons, and that is the addition of SMG and AR suppressors. This attachment has been requested for a long time, and we are happy to deliver a version that we can be confident in. There had to be careful consideration when it comes to audio and weapon balance, and we hope for your feedback on that during the test. Like real life, silencers / suppressors will not actually make your weapon silent. Instead it reduces the sound signature of your shot, making your sound report difficult to notice and precisely locate. Even still we expect suppressors to be very powerful, and so they will have a durability value. They cannot be repaired, and will eventually burn out with lots of use. In fact, other attachments will now have durability in version 1.8, like muzzle brakes and extended magazines. Scopes / Optics will not have durability though, remaining the same as before. We have also added a craftable bottle suppressor that can be applied to your weapons. Crafted from a plastic bottle, duct tape and rags, this improvised suppressor will only be effective for a short period of time due to its low durability. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/20fde8d58cd7025da76380277f2b7d91c5c6589e.jpg In addition to suppressors, update 1.8 also adds two new red dots, pistol red dots, pistol extended magazines, and two 6x optics. These attachments will give more late game viability to pistols, while also allowing players to engage at longer ranges easier. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/82df7c11ec05b7c42de910e7e32cdb4e3b900878.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/dd1fad281b4525aef88e3419705c5d4de2384f68.jpg Speaking of pistols, version 1.8 brings one of our most unique weapons to date, the R-12 revolver! This “assault revolver” uses 5 .50 caliber rounds, loaded with a speed loader. In its current implementation, it deals a whopping 135 damage with 50% armor penetration. However its fire rate is very slow, it doesn’t have the best accuracy, and the projectiles are a bit slow. Keep in mind these stats are subject to change, but even with that in mind this revolver is sure to be a hilariously absurd hand cannon. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/2d10b006105576088539849742f72e377409da36.png Last but not least when it comes to weapons, all you mosin enjoyers out there will be happy to hear that the animations have been changed to accept stripper clips! These small metal clips loosely hold 5 rounds that can quickly be “stripped,” or rather pushed down into the magazine to quickly do a full reload. No longer will you have to sit there slowly loading all 5 rounds one at a time. Next let's talk about workbenches and crafting. In update 1.8 your base and its workbenches will become more important for crafting, while also giving you more items to craft. The goal is to improve balance, progression, and user experience all at once. We have decided to split the existing workbench into three new workbenches. There will still be a workbench item in the game, but it will have a new role. These three new workbenches are the painting workbench, dismantling workbench, and repair workbench. This will simplify the UI and prevent frustrating unintentional disassembly accidents. Now to craft many items in Deadside, you will need to use a workbench at your base. This is the new role of the workbench, as well as the new advanced workbench for more complicated recipes. We have also rebalanced crafting recipes in general, all to improve gameplay balance and progression overall. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/254c43572c7e673b8ab8e7607dbff1486dc06006.png The explosive workbench has been changed as well. Now to craft explosives you interact with the workbench directly, just like every other workbench. You can also now craft ammunition at your base using the new ammo bench. This bench consumes gunpowder, scrap metal, and other items to craft various ammunition of your choice. Bases have gotten a few new additions in this update as well. Now you can construct sloped roofing to give your base a more homely look. Of course we also expect these items to be used in creative ways for base defense, and other building projects. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/9d3b3c100b0aff35a0661dca5c61db485d32036b.jpg In our last update, version 1.7, we added weapon plaques to display your firearms. Now in version 1.8, we have added mannequins to display your clothing and armor! These mannequins are crafted using mannequin parts, found primarily in a store within Kamensk, and rarely in car trunks, trash piles, and decor boxes. As an added bonus, carpets can now be hung on walls! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/021f3f867431366a0c0384691deb3f0f8521df9e.png For our last major addition of version 1.8, a new industrial zone has been added into the Mirny map, along with a remodel of the sand quarry industrial zone. Thankfully these additions will not require a full base wipe, however if you have a base within the area of the new G4 industrial POI, it will be deleted on release of version 1.8. This is to prevent cases of bases clipping into the ground, or into the new structures. If you have a base within this area shown below, we recommend moving your items to a new location before the update is released. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/1cff9b735057e29ffe075c993a1a53167c14b01b.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/68ef9f19c6c029b99e6ec0907b21a900a8949cc1.jpg As you can see, version 1.8 has made lots of changes.

Hello Deadsiders!

The year 2025 is coming to an end, and looking back, it has been a challenging one, but it has been marked by new milestones in the development of the project: Deadside was released on consoles. The game's community has been joined by many new players. We created a new map focused on more intense PvP gameplay - Potny - and expanded the Mirny map. We were also the first to create procedural map generation on Unreal Engine and added the ability and tools to modify the game, giving the community virtually unlimited variability and creative freedom. The base management and crafting systems were significantly expanded, while new weapons were added and old models were redesigned. We experimented widely together with you and discovered new ways to make the game more interesting. Today we want to share with you some exciting and important changes and features that will be coming soon. While they haven't been released this year, they are just around the corner and will be available in the next couple of updates. We want to bring back the feeling of gunfights on the battlefield that you loved so much in Deadside, adding new elements that we all missed, while improving the overall gunplay experience. Weapons in the game will be rebalanced to be more realistic and better reflect their real-world purpose. Ballistics in the game will be enhanced with another important factor: bullet damage will decrease with distance. We will also change the spread of weapons so that firing becomes more predictable. We will also continue to expand the range of weapons and modifiers, so in the upcoming updates, the game will feature the powerful RSH-12 revolver. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/4ff4c16765b2c6d2a428c70f5184d522c641f053.jpg The game will feature new collimator sights, as well as the ability to mount them on handguns, extended magazines for the IZH-70, TTk, and C1911. And finally, the long-awaited new optical scopes with higher magnification than those already available in the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/58fb7510894f499050466761bb1c0be64e56b3e2.png {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/a1a631bd589695daeae60785dbb78b84ab761e26.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/1ff064dea3b0954264bff98cb3b1bf123cf35b94.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/dc1fdd4a3f74803fd86f42139a86a3fa01e6057a.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/2302ea2563dee0d649d1f63eeed3c7ba0a93b0af.jpg Changes to weapons involve more than just expanded customization options; they also come with increased durability and the repair mechanics will be more in line with real-world logic. In addition, the wear and repair system will now apply to weapon mods as well. And of course, we haven't neglected our shelters. New functional modules and decorative objects will be added to the game in the near future, as well as a new base construction element “roof slopes” which, given your creativity, will surely find wider use beyond their intended purpose. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/1a0045de72cd58437176a4053f53d49130fd98db.jpg Game balance adjustments will also be made, affecting loot drops, crafting recipes, and machine operations. To sum up, we still don't have an exact release date, but we can already outline the sequence of new features.

What's definitely coming in the next update:

• Extended magazines for single-row magazine pistols (IZH-70, TTk, C1911)
• New collimator sights
• The ability to mount collimator sights on pistols
• New optical sights with increased magnification
• Bullet damage decreases with distance
• New weapon spread settings
• Weapon rebalancing for greater realism and weapon niche differentiation
• Rebalancing of loot, crafting recipes, and machine operation
• Increased weapon durability and changed repair logic
• Roof slopes for base construction
• New functional modules for bases
• New decorative objects for bases

These features are currently in development and may not be finalized by the time the update is released:

• New revolver
• Weapon module wear and repair

Last but not least, we are preparing an extended preview of our plans for the upcoming 2026, full of exciting new features. Don't miss it!

Best wishes from the entire Bad Pixel and tinyBuild team! Enjoy the holidays and Happy New Year and Merry Christmas!

Hello Deadsiders!

⚠️We are aware of the issues that have arisen after the release of update 1.7 on servers with modifications that conflict with the new version. As with any moddable game, some mods may conflict with the new version once an update is released. If you encounter such issues, please follow these steps:

Admins of community servers:

• Check the server logs for any error messages related to mods. If there are any, temporarily remove those mods from the build. Keep in mind that some modifications can cause the server to crash (especially mods that add new points of interest, missions, etc., such as “aria_militar”).
• Contact the mod developer and report the error.

Mod developers:

• Update Modkit
• Recompile mods with the new version
• Ensure that modifications are compatible with version 1.7, especially important for changes affecting level design, adding new points of interest, missions, etc.
• If you have any additional questions, feel free to contact the developers on the dedicated channel on the official Discord.

Going forward, we will provide mod developers with a pipeline for pre-release beta testing of mods.

Thanks for reading! See you in Deadside

Update 1.7 has been released!

⚠️Warning: During update deployment, servers will be temporarily unavailable for technical maintenance. We expect this maintenance to last around 90-120 minutes. Game client update is required. Many low-traffic servers will be changing to a procedural map, while 6 official servers will be closed. Details on server organization can be found in our previous steam post {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/bed6c4c995d2cf5f4e840f830826bec06a09bc91.jpg Due to improvements on the Mirny map and to safezone mechanics, a partial wipe is required on just official servers. Bases and safezone storage will be deleted, however your characters inventory, reputation, and money will be saved. This wipe is optional for private servers Our CM Boots has prepared a video overview of this update so that you can see what everything looks like while the update installs! https://youtu.be/MS5IoqeTyQ0 This major update is packed full with new content, from new weapons to base decorations. But by far the most impactful feature in this update has got to be procedural map generation. We have created a system from that ground up that utilizes new custom made points of interest to generate completely new Deadside maps with the click of a button. With this system, each wipe and each server will have a unique story. Lots of effort has been put into these new POIs to create dynamic and fun areas to PvPvE in. You will see lots of new assets, buildings, missions, and large landmarks. For example, the scrapyard below will provide lots of densely packed scrap metal, creating both cover and loot. We also have the pyramid, an old rocket factory with high tier loot to offer. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/bbecf0527637f177c255f0125e9de7daf183a92e.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/d14a233a3ffab9bbc1d327a1b876365f00df4435.jpg {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/2374606e3454f7ead29d5b5e48681cfbc2ae06aa.jpg Each map layout is generated from a string of numbers called a seed, with map sizes ranging from 1x1 to 4x4. There are over 2 million different possible seeds, offering a near limitless amount of maps to experience! Some of the new procedural map points of interest will be added to Mirny as well! Specifically the factory, Pyramid and warehouse POIs. Here is the Pyramid on Mirny: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/103ee3b34a438f282a18e09a639a8d026d467712.jpg Also coming with this update is a new weapon; the Cross Vector! This iconic weapon spits .45 at a high rate of fire with controllable recoil using its uniquely engineered off-axis bolt travel. Here you can see it mounted on one of our new decorations, a weapon display! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/bfd9f9a7e94c93e4946952a2b4ea99733729b254.jpg While we are on the subject of weapons, explosives in this update will be getting a slight rework. Now in order to craft any explosives, you must first have an Explosives Workbench at your base. Once created, you will also need another new crafting material to make explosives; gunpowder. You can get gunpowder by disassembling ammunition at a workbench. Then it can be crafted into explosives, or maybe our new Improvised Grenade! These small grenades don’t deal as much damage compared to the real thing, but it's still a useful tool to have on hand. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/648749ad5046d1ee233709d66e44a468e1bd994d.png Of course with the new year around the corner, it is time for us to begin our new years event! This event adds festive weapon skins into the loot pool, decorates the safezone, and adds new decorations to find. Some areas of the map like Kamensk have a large Christmas tree with lootboxes and edible candy canes under them! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/253f107eea711cee978b94bfaf6547f36f0b9bd0.png Along with the festive decorations, we have added a lot of new base decorations with this update! There are the weapon displays we mentioned before, decorative fences, a wooden pole, full body wolf and deer trophies, 2 desk lamps, 3 wall lamps, 8 new flag variants, and 22 wall mounted road signs! That's 42 new ways to make your base your own. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/a7f9405a1452d4b36901c33cb4e8c50d1f5640ae.jpg We have also continued to support and add new features to our modkit. In version 1.7, you will get the much requested ability to add modded items! We now have a system that registers your modded items with its own GUID, to prevent issues with replication that you may have experienced before if you tried this previously. We have also added support for custom chat commands, custom chat messages, expanded airdrop modding, and nodes to adjust player money. Tutorials are available on our Official Wiki for those who are willing to take the modding plunge. We can’t wait to see what our modders create with these new abilities! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/c3b8ee2163f7b30045cfb512cfa423ebf2517060.png There have been a lot more changes included in this version, so we encourage you to read the full patch notes! As for our plans now that 1.7 has been released, we have a few things that we have already started working on. We plan to add a bunch of new weapon attachments like canted red dots, foregrips, lasers and more. There are two new weapons in the works; the Rsh-12 revolver and the improvised Mosin-K grenade launcher. Of course we plan to continue supporting our existing projects like the modkit, procedural generation, while also improving and adding upon existing features. Let us know what you would like to see next on our Nolt! It's the best place to send your ideas to us.

Thanks for reading, enjoy update 1.7!

Hello Deadsiders!

Today we launch our final public test of version 1.7! There is a handful of new content that made it into this test, including the Explosive Bench, Improvised Grenades, and lots of new base decorations. Other areas to focus on are the rebalanced AI logic, game balance in relation to base building, looting, and PvE events, as well as bugs related to the new vaulting animation. Of course any feedback you have for us on the PTS is still very helpful! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/151de4c585f50b264f5ef2b612fcaa00e3f62160.jpg Also included on the PTS is the content for our new years holiday event! This includes seasonal base decorations, new years weapon skins, decorated safezones, and Christmas trees with special loot crates! This event will be included with the release of version 1.7, so you will be able to collect these seasonal items in the released version. If everything goes smoothly on the PTS, version 1.7 will release on December 9th as planned! Check below the instructions for the full patch notes, there is a lot to dig into. Included there are some awesome new features for the modkit that we know our modders will be excited about. Since modders can’t mod the PTS, public testing of these features won’t be possible until the release of 1.7 on the 9th. ⚠️One note before you begin testing, on the PTS you cannot currently place sleeping bags or tripwires inside of POIs. This setting was unexpectedly enabled by an issue which will be fixed on the release of 1.7. Additionally at the beginning of this test, only servers with an updated Mirny will be available. The team is currently working on starting PTS servers with procedural maps

Greetings, Deadsiders!

Today we're addressing one of the most popular questions: "When will Version 1.7 release?". Open testing is still ongoing, but we have some great news — the release date has been set. Deadside V1.7 will be launched for PC on December 9! Update 1.7 adds new large Points of Interest to the Mirny map and refines the game's world level design. We have also improved the safe zone storage system to expand the modkit's capabilities. Now modders will be able to add safe zones to the map and storages This means that the update will wipe player building progress and Safe Zone storage on official servers - a necessary step we must take to ensure the update works correctly. The character's inventory on the server will remain unaffected. As for community servers, this time we are leaving the choice up to the owners. Only storage in the safe zone will be forced to reset, while the decision to wipe constructions and transport remains at the discretion of the administrators. We will provide detailed instructions on how to wipe servers by yourself later. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/bed6c4c995d2cf5f4e840f830826bec06a09bc91.jpg Please note: player bases may conflict with the new landscape and points of interest, as well as block loot spawns and events (cargo drops, helicopter crashes), as we have made changes to their logic — now they will not appear near player buildings.

Head to the servers, it's time to go all out!

Hello Deadsiders!

As playtesting continues of version 1.7 on the PTS, we have been able to begin working on new content while preparing V1.7 for release. Most of the features we will discuss today are still in a very early state, as we have just recently been able to begin work on them. Meaning as always with our WIP posts, plans and specifics are subject to change. Even still we are excited to show you what we have begun working on! Let's start with what we know will make it into update 1.7, additional modkit support! By far the most requested modkit feature on release was the ability to add custom modded items. So we have worked to make that a reality; in update 1.7 custom items will be possible! Modded items can be added to mission rewards, cargo drops, world spawners, and the admin menu. This feature opens the flood gates for all sorts of modding possibilities, from custom weapons and armor, to rare vault keys. Additionally, modders will now be able to directly change the players amount of money, allowing them to further adjust gameplay to their liking. Some of you mentioned on our last few posts about procedural map generation that you would like to see updates to the original Mirny map. So we have decided to add a couple of the new POIs created for procedural generation into the Mirny map, specifically the Pyramid and Factory POIs. These are large unique POIs that will add a bit more variety into the emptier areas of the classic Mirny map (E8 & J9-10, subject to change). Let's move on to features that don’t have a release date just yet, starting with the Rsh-12! Sometimes called an “assault revolver,” it fires the large 12.7x55 cartridge originally designed for large rifles. While its name and implementation in Deadside may differ in some ways to real life, you can be sure that it's going to hit harder than any other pistol in the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/7a419c6b732bfe66edeb9bec3bcb7457591c8438.png Next we have a big change to explosive crafting; introducing the Demolition Table! This base module is where all explosive crafting will be done, requiring you to set up a base yourself before going out to raid others. While its texture isn’t finished yet, we can show you the base model as it will appear in game {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/2e47cd9f7896efc8ac546dee87780b914180d835.png The demolition table will allow you to create some new items as well by dismantling ammunition into gunpowder. This gunpowder can then be used at the demolition table in a recipe to craft another new item; Improvised Grenades! These are stuffed full of nails and metal scrap to create some lovely fragmentation, useful for combat and raiding {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/d6210342bc28246272c309bf24c6e7d3b78d8c9f.png We are also working on a handful of new decorative base modules, though the models aren’t ready to be shown at the moment. These include decorative low fences, signposts, new flags, lamps, full body wolf and deer taxidermies, and the highly requested weapon displays! With these new decorations, you will be able to light, decorate and display weapons in your base to make it feel even more like home. Here is an example of a weapon display, though keep in mind the final version will likely be different than what you see here {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33598199/c5b2d3aa6d13b93611e8bc37b9ab13cece39b106.png Be sure to follow us on socials or watch the #teaser channel in our discord to see previews of these decorative models. With that, we have covered everything the team is currently working on! Thanks for reading, let us know what you think about these WIP features!

https://i.imgur.com/6vgLxp2.gif Today we begin our second procedural map playtest, this time with a new weapon! Now on the PTS is the Cross Vector, a new high tier submachine gun that many of you will likely recognize. Known for its low recoil and high rate of fire, it's a competent and dangerous weapon in the right hands. This test also includes changes based on the feedback we got from the first playtest. Thank you to everyone who took the time to submit bugs and complete our survey, it's great to be able to fine tune this update with your help. We aren’t finished making changes to this update yet, but this playtest should address reported issues with map generation bug, loot distribution, and more To make this second playtest more interesting, we are going to be running a PTS building competition! Winners will get a handful of DLC game keys of their choice, the special @Building Competition Winner role in our discord, along with being featured on our socials! The building competition isn’t the only event we will be running during this playtest, so join our discord to participate For a full list of changes included in this second playtest, check out the full patch notes at the bottom of this post. Enjoy testing!

Hello Deadsiders!

Public testing of procedural maps begins now!

As you may have seen from our recent WIP post and teasers, the team has been working on making a procedural map generator for Deadside. This system will quickly generate a completely unique map, allowing servers to have a lot of map and gameplay variety. We already have a functional though work in progress generator that we would like to playtest with everyone. This will be the first of several public tests before the release of version 1.7, that way we can correctly tune the generator before release. We are looking for feedback primarily on the overall gameplay experience, for example loot distribution, and PvPvE gameplay. Procedural maps will feature many new POIs for you to explore and test as well. We will be launching three PTS servers, PvP EU, PvP US, and PvE EU. Each of these servers will have a 4x4Km map, each with a different seed. So when the test goes live tomorrow, login to the PTS and have a look around! The more feedback and participation we get from our community, the better the system will be on release Check out the patch notes below the instructions for a list of smaller detailed changes
