ENCASED — PATCH 3 HOTFIX 2: Critical bugs, cosmetic fixes and more

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementspatchnotesworkshop

1549d ago

Patch 3 saw the introduction of a large crashed transport plane event, gamepad support and a completely overhauled in-game vehicle system. We fixed some of the remaining bugs in Hotfix 1; only the most significant edits remained, which took us almost 2 months to implement. Hotfix 2 - released today - includes fixes for critical bugs, localization fixes and several UI improvements.

Critical Bugs

Fixed an issue where some vignettes would ‘break’ the game when a player tried to go back to previous slides
Fixed the dialogue logic with Audrey (after the Parasites quest); if the anomalous essence was stolen and the player tried to receive a reward, the dialogue would freeze
Fixed incorrect loading of the Fops Camp location, when one of the inhabitants of the camp occupied the spawn point of the player's car
Fixed the display for Atilla in characters’ hands and in the inventory menu
Fixed a bug where the companion's weapon ended up in a player's inventory when the companion died or left the team. It was previously impossible to remove the equipped companion’s weapon

Important Fixes

Fixed a problem with the new markers appearing on the map related to the MTT Eldorado event
Fixed context menu; now you can inspect an item in any situation (even if it is inside a container), an NPC’s inventory, in the barter menu, etc.

Localisation

Fixed localisation of the text appearing upon receiving a new perk
Fixed some buttons localisation
Fixed incorrect translation of the Credits tab in the main menu; it was previously named About
Removed incorrect text in the Settings tab
Fixed description of Attack Reroll perk in French and German localisation

Cosmetic Fixes

Fixed line wrapping in feedback window
Fixed layout of the Leave Location window; with an increased font size, the text on the buttons previously did not fit into the line
Fixed layout for the elements of the global map; with an increased font size, info on travel time previously did not fit into the line
Fixed incorrect colors for skill points required to unlock a new Abilities tier

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a02136a896439f3cb85533d1606b8bca0900abf.png The last patch was a real test for the team – we’ve added gamepad support, new content, expanded on car mechanics, and added a Linux version. And, of course, bug fixes. In today's hotfix, we've addressed a few bugs that have been discovered, and also made some cosmetic changes to the game regarding sound and level design.

ENCASED - PATCH 3: CARS, A PLANE IN DESERT AND GAMEPAD SUPPORT

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementsworkshop

1634d ago

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/a2869b141fc86c785303c1db97b09d23a725a86d.png The full version of Encased was released in September and we’ve since introduced several hotfixes - and a couple of major patches - where we thoroughly worked on the UI, optimisation, level design and other aspects of the game. But all of this (with the exception of the special Halloween patch) was related to the content that was already in the game. That's great, but how about something new? Such as what we promised during our kickstarter campaign. With this in mind, we started developing Patch 3. Today we are happy to present it to you and let you know what awaits you in the first (but not last!) large-scale Encased update. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/39495a6c6d775ab54fec5377370e1b0be48a5d5c.png

A new adventure and cars

Before the Spire Station was built, cargo was delivered under the Dome by aircraft. One such aircraft - a decommissioned military transport callsigned Eldorado - made a hard landing in a mountainous area and was abandoned. A few years later, the plane which was devoid of life, began to broadcast strange signals... You’ll need to find out what is happening at the crash site and what fate befell the scientific group that went to investigate the plane shortly after it crashed. Oh and, by the way, on board the plane you can find a unique piece of clothing for your character as well as tons of loot. We have redesigned the game's transport system; players can now steal almost any car (except those that will never run again). Having a car brings on many changes: not only can you navigate the map faster, but you also unlock new encounters, many of which can lead to highly unpredictable outcomes. And conversely, we’ve added a little more predictability to random events in which you can encounter travelers named after kickstarter backers; as of now, if you convince someone to join one of the factions, upon arriving at the settlement, you will most certainly meet them, and some of such characters will become merchants. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/a188cb6940cfd28481fcf6663fcd5e305153f9b7.jpg

Bug fixes, gamepad and Linux version

We have long promised to add gamepad support to the game and spent a lot of time and effort on its implementation. Additional options have been added along with the gamepad and now you can adjust the font size - or enable high contrast mode – which will make the game more accessible to play on a large monitor or TV. Or, for that matter, on a small Steam Deck display. We also released a Linux version of the game and fixed a lot of bugs, errors and polished some minor rough edges – the fixes were so numerous that we decided not to make a list at all this time. Believe us, you will still see enough of them, because we do not plan to abandon Encased, and in the near future a lot of new and interesting things await you. Thank you for your support and please stay tuned.

CRONUS Weekly 2022

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Hello, we hope that you’ve had a fantastic New Year and are all set to venture under the Dome in the company of your faithful companions. Today's issue will be short but very important.

Development update

We know we promised the patch in late December but unfortunately - due to technical reasons - we had to postpone the release until January. But this month we will definitely have new content waiting for you. The extra time of development allowed us to polish new locations and mechanics, as well as fix some bugs. Can't wait to see what new content is waiting for you under the Dome? Then visit our Youtube channel. The latest episode of the development diaries is waiting for your viewers.

New locations and completely redesigned cars

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/5f003d39a25c9c1065f7c1b8226de0d38eed10ae.png One of the main changes of the patch will be the new locations; the Fallen Fortress and the Mysterious Caves. Here you will find new enemies, equipment, treasures and mysteries of the wastelands. And you will be able to drive away with those riches on completely redesigned transport: you can repair or blow up any vehicle under the Dome and these repaired cars can be used as a personal vehicle. There will be a place to park them in each location.

Additional settings

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/d465187d26c96e86c18079f99776294f5a46f12f.png Players with large monitors will appreciate the new contrast mode and the long-awaited ability to change the font size. You no longer have to strain your eyes to read any text again. Another change - which will please owners of gamepads - is that we fully adapted the interface and added support for hotkeys. And we’re always in the market to hear your suggestions to improve the game; we’ll try to add what we can.

Upcoming update and gamepad support

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! The latest issue of the post-apocalyptic CRONUS Weekly is, once more, on your screen. Can anyone hear us? Today we’ll talk about the near-future of Encased.

December Update

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/15e8494477e44fa1cdc1632673bd162bb767ad55.jpg Employees, winter has arrived. It won't be long before we start preparing for the holidays and most people go on a well-deserved vacation. And to make sure you don't get bored during the break,we'll be releasing another Encased update this year! We'll tell you more later, but you can expect new locations, enemies, battles, gear and more. We really hope you enjoy it :)

Gamepad Support

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/766d4d856f3426b81daa9a911ce995ed19244965.jpg We've been actively working on full PC gamepad support for the past few months and we're happy to announce that your wait will be over in December. We have adapted the interface and hotkeys for each panel and will also try to add a special mode with larger font and text contrast. By the way, if you played on a gamepad in the early access, you should like the fact that now the character will independently bypass minor obstacles. No longer will you cling to small objects in your path.

Steam Awards

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/d961ccfb6faf18be37485a413bc8cd4bd77d5bca.gif Employees, the annual Steam Awards is underway and players have begun to vote for the best games in ten categories. If you had fun under the Dome — please vote for Encased in any of the categories. We'll really appreciate it.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/6cc886c7ea4ea219f76a7cda2264f35a21ccf4f3.png It's been two months since Encased was released. During this time, we have significantly improved stability, added more reputation events, fixed many bugs and typos. We have also published a roadmap for the game’s further development. By New Year, another patch will be released containing special events for vehicles (including Ursula), balance tweaks and a number of "quality of life" changes. As for today's hotfix, we’ve added a small number of fixes and disabled the Halloween event. Keep in mind that the merchant named Sylvia Halen will be staying in the City and will continue to give rewards in exchange for Cursed Seeds, but the pumpkin-headed skeletons will disappear from the game until next year. As for the edits made to the game, here is the list:

Fixed necroids generating a stupefying ‘field of death’
Fixed Church reputation decrease after the death of Victoria Legrand
Fixed infinite gain experience with a fusebox in Magellan reactor section
Fixed button for creating ability shortcuts on the quick access panel

A new development update and the beginning of Halloween under the Dome!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! The latest issue of the post-apocalyptic CRONUS Weekly is once again on your screens. Can anyone hear us? Today we're going to talk about how the inhabitants of the world under the Dome got their own voices and remind you about the Halloween discounts.

Development update #15: Voices under the Dome

The first post-release development update is dedicated to voice acting. How the inhabitants of the world under the Dome got their own voices and how it affected the atmosphere and immersion into the game's story. What other details about the game's development would you like to hear? Suggest your video ideas in the comments!

Halloween event and discounts

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/98cfc785c5cfdaeefdeb73e1846b56cd28a9ea3c.jpg The Encased Halloween event began on October 28. It will last until November 8. Battle the cursed skeletons right now! They were once employees of the CRONUS Corporation, but now they are servants of evil, hungry for only one thing — the death of all living things. Sylvia Halen, an up-and-coming scientist from the mysterious White Swan Station, hunts for the Cursed Seeds, little-explored relics that can be extracted from the bodies of dead employees. Sylvia is not stingy on rewards: in addition to various chemicals, she is ready to offer the player a unique artifact. Hurry though, the event ends on November 8. The special enemies will disappear, but Sylvia will remain in the City and become a regular merchant until the next Halloween. Seeds can be exchanged for rewards at any time. By the way, there's a 10% discount on the game right now, so it's the perfect time to head under the Dome!

ENCASED — Patch 2: a number of bugfixes and the Horrors of the Dome

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/b22cb0361801bd1422ee59a8a4445698171560cc.png This October turned out very stressful – as we finished work on the latest patch and sat back to relax, a new one was on its way. This time we fixed many bugs and added a special event in honor of All Saints’ Day: the Barrens are now overrun with pumpkin-headed skeletons, and a special merchant was sighted in the City. But, first things first.

Special Event

Sylvia Halen, a promising scientist from the mysterious White Swan station, is on the hunt for the Cursed Seeds – the little-studied relics that can be obtained from the bodies of dead employees. Sylvia does not skimp on rewards: in addition to various chemicals, she will offer the player a unique artifact. The following awaits you in the Halloween event: — Temporary redesign of old enemies (Skeletons), — A new relic, — Festive decor at various locations, — A new piece of equipment – Pumpkin Helmet, which can be upgraded. Make haste, as this event will end on November 8th. The special enemies will disappear, but Sylvia will remain in the City and become a regular merchant until exactly next Halloween. You can exchange seeds for rewards at any time. If you don't want the Halloween DLC to launch and change the game, simply uninstall it. You can find the file in the folder where the game is installed. Here is the exact path to DLC: Encased\Encased_Data\StreamingAssets\DLC\Halloween.DLC For everyone willing to see how the game has changed after the release of the new patch, we will host a stream with the developers. It will start on October 28 at 17:00 UTC (19:00 CEST, 12:00 CDT). {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/7634c67262a327b58383859d35193692f5de9e58.jpg

Halloween under the Dome!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/83d3b6df4feec4b5b96632e1fe4321b30ce44c55.png Employees: the Dome is once again in danger and it is far more terrifying than any anomaly. On 28 October, the dead will rise from their graves and hunt the living. Fight the undead and gain cursed seeds for your victories. You can exchange these for a valuable artifact or useful equipment from a new merchant. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/e7ac6c9c11d27ffda62baaf964aa2ea53d147199.jpg Survivors will receive a unique pumpkin helmet; it can be upgraded up to three levels, using the seeds of the dead and other resources. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/57b377a71f61f8002455f52c4698e47e07c3f428.jpg To get some of the valuable prizes, you will have to meet the Halloween Merchant who is waiting for you in the heart of New Committee City. She sells not only the usual first aid kits and anti-radiation drugs, but also a new valuable artifact available for purchase only in exchange for cursed seeds. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/76535ffec91956e7805fc5d4dd984987fdeb17e1.jpg By the way, the merchant will remain in the world under the Dome even after the Halloween event ends, so if you forget to sell the seeds before the end of the event, fear not. However, the skeletons WILL disappear from the game and you so will not be able to get new seeds once the event ends. Also, to celebrate Halloween, we'll stream via Steam, showing off new content and trying to answer the most interesting questions. Stream will be held at 19:00 CEST on 28 October. See you there!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! Once again, the latest post-apocalyptic CRONUS weekly is on your screens. Can anyone hear us? This week you’ll learn when you can expect the first post-release patch, as well as a couple of mechanics that new players might not have noticed.

First patch

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/fb9a2ed62d2a0e2d5a1ec9920b847aca6cd62fcb.gif Employees, our team is working tirelessly on the technical state of the game. Next week, on 14 October, you can expect the first post-release patch: it will fix the difficult bugs that required a lot of time to work on, as well as fix the texture quality degradation, improve the interface and add some other nice changes. We have also been reading the feedback carefully and some of the changes were made thanks to you and your support. By the way, did you know that in Encased you can hide dynamite in your enemy's pockets?

Squad management

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/dfd96b2415da8d103950d89a0a47a4239e225287.gif Employees, did you know that each character in your squad can be controlled separately? To do so, simply detach the portraits from each other in the upper left corner. That way you can set sophisticated ambushes, explore dangerous terrain, and do other not-so-legal things.

Dismantling

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/83768ae9ed87a43f87d2799a25ae62e3d7319153.gif Overwhelmed by inventory, short on resources, or just want to make a little extra money? By increasing your survival skill to 30, you'll be able to dismantle items on locations, as well as unnecessary equipment from your inventory. Turn junk into useful resources in just a few clicks.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! Once again, the latest post-apocalyptic CRONUS weekly is on your screens. Can anyone hear us? Today let's talk about post-release updates under the Dome, unprecedented community support, and, of course, plans for the future.

Custom portraits

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/661391dd516fa63c5e114d1c3aa72db0754364a7.gif Custom portraits were probably the most anticipated innovation of the game. Now each of you can add your own photo or art to the game. Game also supports transparent images, so the most skillful of you can add portraits without backgrounds. Our team is very interested in what you ended up using in the game as a portrait, so feel free to share with us :)

More than 2000 reviews!

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/7d950b243a2ebc48e7bb6be954928ff2071ed8a2.png Thanks to your support, Encased already has over 2,000 reviews on Steam, 80% of which are positive! Our team wants to sincerely thank you for your support and we’ll try to continue surprising our community with interesting game updates.

Bugfixes

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/6cb3391fc0ff43c85315e86cd63bd9b8335d6d68.gif Speaking of updates. Even though we haven't released a new hotfix this week, that doesn't mean that the work on bugs is over. It's only the beginning. For the past three weeks we have been carefully collecting your feedback and will try to fix not only the bugs that need a lot of time, but also take into account your wishes, such as new hairstyles and other improvements to the game.

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/5d78e68195029eb40857e0aa9c47b1fc0659a512.png The recent Encased hotfix released a week ago fixed the most annoying and noticeable bugs that interfered with the comfortable playthrough, and also introduced a number of cosmetic fixes, mostly voice acting and localization.

Encased is out

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementsworkshop

1790d ago

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/fddb06237220a6bc3c5eb60d433943a21a325edc.jpg We are beyond thrilled to make this announcement: Today Encased - the game to which we have dedicated more than three years of our lives - will be released out of early access. It's hard for us to contain our excitement and describe how important this moment is. We’ve been through the Kickstarter campaign, two years of early access, five content patches, millions of hours of early access playtime, hundreds of characters, quests, abilities, and items. Ahead of us is a leap of faith into the final stage of the most desperate adventure of our lives!

Do you remember how it all started?

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/450d12f3570003175b2e7154536e0845cd3beecb.gif In 2017 a very small team of developers decided to create their own game. An RPG with enormous freedom of choice, nearly infinite variability, hundreds of characters and a real influence of player’s choices on the world and story. We knew from the start that we had a long, challenging, but incredibly exciting road ahead of us. And as we developed, it only became more and more difficult. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/4311d62aeb4efa0366dabc9b949e5594a409bf68.gif Now we are working with a major publisher Prime Matter, but we are still the same independent studio, burning with the idea to create games of our dreams. Our numbers have grown from only a few employees to dozens of people, and the duration of a single full playthrough is around 40 hours!

Get ready for adventures and more

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/8f3c1f63c6e2669f471dc0d3efbae06664955b36.gif During the two years of Early Access, many of you have already played dozens of hours through this phase. The game has already received five content patches that added new mechanics, locations and characters to the game. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/5f88f5e8797222931ff75a26979bf3e103716129.gif Today, you will uncover the entire world under the Dome, a full story campaign, an updated interface and dozens of endings that will be influenced by your own decisions. And today we're going to tell you about some of the features we're most proud of! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/c30971657500a11f48bb98adceb4d140a568fd03.gif Encased encourages the most sophisticated ways of playing through the game and is ready for your most extraordinary deeds and decisions. Many, even seemingly insignificant steps of your character will affect the world, story and ending.

Tactical turn-based combat

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/37fed6586242ca58d91d05e45335c01716e239e7.gif We're die-hard fans of old-school RPGs, so we chose to stick with turn-based battles, where winning is not a matter of clicking your mouse fast enough, but of tactics and strategy. The game mechanics have been changing throughout the early access and our game designers invested a lot of effort into the combat system and balance. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/de6468bf1f474f56dc5a1b276ac45fdac39523be.gif Encased now features 14 skill trees, over 250 passive and active abilities, 70 perks, and 17 character traits. We did the maths and found that at least 40 unique builds are available to players. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/7f7a8fba7d307ca25d897ec44a388a4961546195.png

Unique playthroughs

Remember we promised you that only you can decide how to play the game? The World under the Dome gives you maximum freedom of choice. Create a character with low intelligence and unlock completely unique dialogues and character reactions, coupled with unconventional ways to die or complete the quest against all the odds. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/4b60c107b75bd0bf296f8c422e94532703ca3acc.png And if you don't want to talk to anyone, you can hide from others using stealth, strike your enemies from the shadows and go through the whole story as a lone wolf. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/9b1a17c9292f797b00bb59f8b1dce1e430588b85.png Unleash your darkest fantasies and start destroying and killing every living thing under the Dome from the very first seconds of the game. Engage in every fight and mercilessly kill every employee of the CRONUS corporation, the game is even ready for a psychopath like you. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/156eacfd5af9cf4390599033bf3c37b2749b46b8.jpg Believe the best of people? Take on the role of an ardent pacifist, use only non-lethal methods of eliminating opponents and go through the game without spilling a drop of blood. The world under the Dome will remember every action you take. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/0df02f266f7293c97d2267b98891e41ee36f7e71.png And these are just a few of your future playthrough options. Immerse yourself in the world under the Dome and play your chosen role to the very end!

Fully voiced main quest with multiple actors

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/c40451ea680dbfd54051d0230324418a08c47c9d.png Each key character of the world under the Dome is voiced by a professional actor in both English and Russian. Now the adventures have become much more atmospheric and the characters are fully individualised.

Weapon upgrades, crafting, and survival systems

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/79fc06d196fca9ce4a36c88ac3f2d60322139e67.gif We did not strive to create a wasteland survival simulator, but rather a believable living world where in order to stay alive you have to eat, sleep, find or create weapons, try on servoshell armor that protects against many dangers, but is not able to fit through a small manhole or a gap in the fence. Each location and quest can be completed in a variety of ways and it's up to you to decide which one to use.

Hundreds of characters, companions and factions

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/51ffd06bb32d8949c004206195489fa49ce5c912.png The world under the Dome has a rich life of its own even without your involvement. Here you will meet interesting characters that can either become your best friends or your worst enemies. Militant factions will try to get you on their side, but whoever's right and wrong is for you to decide. Heroes and dubious characters alike are ready to join your squad. Each of them has their own view on what is going on, as well as their own attitude towards your actions. It's likely that you'll disagree with some of them while others may become your most loyal friends. These people —and not only such— will stand by your character’s side until the end and will possibly play an important role in the game's finale.

A Story that you can and will shape

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/9690eeac4508ae266e123d8df419636be141fbaa.gif From the start Encased has been a game about how people’s courage, wisdom, and hard work can rebuild a decadent civilization from the ashes. But as we all know, not everyone wants to follow the hero's path. We’ve created the story in a way so that the world reacts to every decision you make, and instead of a thriving world in the finale you may see smoking ruins of cities, or a totalitarian empire growing under the Dome, or a state ruled by technocrats, or... There truly are many endings to Encased, and we want each of you to experience the story that resonates with you.

We created Encased together with you

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/6fa824f3caeb421dab3af338ec22ad18ed66e43c.jpg All the things we mentioned above would remain a dream without the support of our community. We often talk about how players have influenced the creation and development of Encased - and these are not mere words. Every bug report, Steam review, social media comment, game feedback and message you send us directly impacts how we develop the project. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/11905782458095c7b8d6f3c2589a33659d465e9a.gif The Kickstarter campaign was not the starting point of Encased. Even prior to that we came up with the basic concept of the project, put together the first technical preview, created the concept of Wings and the basis of the universe where humanity discovered the gigantic anomalous Dome. But it wasn't until the campaign began that we realized how many people were willing to support our dream. We realized that our players needed Encased! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/36b15c6fbd8535d05e2a6659b2a5663274453173.jpg We sincerely thank the 2,938 Kickstarter backers, the people who believed in us at the earliest stage of development. Pre-orders and every copy sold in early access only strengthened that feeling. The thought of your trust kept us going even in our darkest moments.

What’s next?

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/a6a6e65492241ab4a85cf898ac7d3ad1fbaab944.gif Encased has exceeded our expectations. It has a lot more content, mechanics, characters, and points of interest than we intended to make at the beginning of development. Now it's a whole world that lives by its own laws and rules. Tomorrow, when you run the full version of the game for the first time, it may have bugs and flaws. Right now we're getting ready to receive your messages, to address each and every one of them as fast as we can, and to fix, edit and improve all the available content! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/c3c7a8d77a442150635795d7e0538d1e9160a251.gif You can support us with feedback, send us a bug report, write to us on any social media platforms that will continue to be filled with content. And we will continue to improve the world under the Dome to make your adventures even more exciting. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/b71345d5c0cc6b717313385e976956bb32bfffe5.png As soon as the game is released, we'll start creating previously unannounced content that will keep you coming back to the world under the Dome!

Encased Full Release

1794d ago

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! Once again, the latest post-apocalyptic CRONUS Weekly is on your screens. Can anyone hear us? Over three years in development, two years in Early Access. Encased has changed a lot since the first alpha, and every step of the way your support, criticism, and social media activity kept us going. In just a couple of days, on September 7, Encased will finally leave Early Access and fully open the Dome to anyone who wants to play the game from start to finish. Today we're going to tell you about some new Encased mechanics, which we've saved for dessert.

Servoshell Paint

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/5b72ff89b87a712814443279b4b8bd95ece09e53.gif The servoshell armor can be upgraded to four levels and each of them will change the appearance of this death machine. But even this is not the limit of customization. By upgrading the servoshell armor to level four, the player will be able to paint it in the colors of national flags. And it's easy to do, just loot the dead engineers who worked on the paint job. How will you paint your armor? All options are shown on the gif above. By the way, servoshell armor painting was one of the social goals on Kickstarter, and without the help of our friendly community would never have made it into the game.

Ursula

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/a05eed1879991b707a9f8c22eaacfad21712bc9e.gif Tired of wandering the endless wasteland on your own two feet? Hurry up to get your hands on the real armored train “Ursula”! It will become your mobile base in the Encased world! Covered in sand somewhere in the vast wastelands of the Dome, it's waiting to take you to any destination at the speed of light.

Camps

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/f94ac1d1ef1c013672f6a129d46972f80f22c8f5.gif The journey from one settlement to another can take several days of playing time. That's why the full version of Encased on September 7 not only offers players an updated world map, but also the ability to camp anywhere under the Dome. There you'll be able to grab a bite, have a heart-to-heart talk with your companions, cook food, and heal your wounds.

News from the other side of the Dome

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementsworkshop

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! Here’s the latest issue of the post-apocalyptic CRONUS Weekly on your screens. Can anyone hear us? Today we want to talk about the news on the other side of the Dome and what awaits the Encased world in the coming weeks.

Gamescom 2021

All week our attention was concentrated on one of the main gaming shows, Gamescom 2021. And we were happy to be directly involved! Even if the award for the best RPG this year escaped us, we are still grateful that we were placed together with such titans of the genre as Tales of Arise and Elden Ring. By the way, let us remind you that we released a video about Encased's possible playthrough styles for gamescom. We recommend you watch it!

Upcoming release

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/a5e40eea2484638277192c5418f3b683f9c0e74b.jpg Employees: Encased is less than two weeks away from the full release and our team is working hard to make your first visit to the full version of Encased as enjoyable as possible. The game has been translated into Russian, English, German, French, Spanish, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and Japanese. It was also dubbed in English and Russian. Undoubtedly, such an abundance of languages will allow many players to better immerse themselves into the atmosphere of post-apocalyptic Dome. On 7 September you will be able to wipe out entire settlements, explore all the secrets of the Dome, learn psionics, meet the most unusual inhabitants of the wastelands and, of course, influence the lives of all the CRONUS employees.

Updated servoshell armor

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/6f8af9910484bea0f152bcd85ac7463ba4c49f16.gif In anticipation of the release, our artists have updated all servoshell armor models! In the days of CRONUS, only the best members of the Black Wing could get their hands on it, but the Incident changed everything. Now anyone can get their hands on this technology. Find your own servoshell armor in the vast wasteland, and improve it over time. That, together with mastering the piloting skills, will make your hero a death machine.

Trailers, Psychology and Awards under the Dome

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementsworkshop

1803d ago

Dear C.R.O.N.U.S. Employees, We are happy to announce that Encased has been nominated for the Best Role Playing Game Award at this year’s gamescom! If you want to check out the full list of Award Nominations, you’ll find it here: https://www.gamescom.global/the-gamescom/gamescom-award/ And don’t forget to vote for Encased as the most anticipated game of Gamescom 2021! https://www.surveymonkey.de/r/gamescomawardconsumerawards ------------------ When a number of media outlets previewed Encased last month, we noticed that very few explored the more unique playstyles Encased has to offer. To find out why that was, we spoke with Dr. Rachel Kowert, who said: “Our in-game avatars are often a means of experimenting with many possible ‘selves’, either as we are – our actual self – or an idealized version of ourselves. The characters we create in-game are very often closely related to who we are out of game.” There’s also a personal development aspect to this too. Research at Stanford University's Virtual Human Interaction Lab found players who were helpful to NPCs in a video game were then more helpful to others in real life too. It’s called the Proteus effect and – yes – playing video games can make you a better person; other studies have produced similar results. “There is an entire field of research looking at how digital role play in video games can impact how we think and behave out of game. For example, seeing a digital version of ourselves being successful in these spaces can become a catalyst for changing thoughts and beliefs we have about ourselves.” Here you can watch our new trailer showing off some of the more unusual ways you can play Encased: • Setting your intelligence as low as possible • Not talking to anyone and being permanently in the shadows • Being a pacifist and only using non-lethal weapons • Acting like a serial killer And if you want to learn more about Encased and the psychology behind how we play video games, take a look at this Interview between Gamereactor and Dr. Rachel Kowert here. Remember: Encased comes out 7 September! Only two more weeks to go!

Factions under the Dome

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementsworkshop

1808d ago

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! Once again, the latest issue of the post-apocalyptic CRONUS Weekly is on your screens. Can anyone hear us? Today we want to talk about factions, how they came to be, who they consist of, and how friendly they are.

Before the Incident

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/18ba92979cc80abf8cd3fe31b4790b0831c6b201.jpg CRONUS is an international organization created specifically for the study of the anomalous Dome. It consists of leading scientists from all over the world, as well as experienced soldiers, engineers, doctors, managers and handymen. The organization is divided into five wings, each specializing in their own field: Black Wing - military White Wing - scientists and medics Blue Wing - engineers Silver Wing - managers Orange Wing - handymen Access under the Dome for non-employees is strictly forbidden.

During the Incident

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/2ba35d99947d4e9a51e3a5c5dc908f1bcdf3cf30.jpg The incident, the details of which are still shrouded in mystery, nearly destroyed CRONUS, splitting it into dozens of groups, each of which simply wanted to survive. Employees caught in the middle of the Maelstrom turned into ruthless Fops, madmen killing everyone in their path. Those more fortunate began to seek salvation by uniting into the most powerful factions of the post-apocalyptic Dome.

After the Incident

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/f3c5a878d658975605d073b1f466f029699b5ad2.jpg Carmine Heights, the Whirlwind Church, the New Committee, the Fops, the autonomous “Roadside Picnic”, and the Phalanx are the main political and military forces in the post-apocalyptic Dome. Only the New Committee and the autonomous zone "Roadside Picnic" have been able to maintain the former structure of CRONUS. However, their views on life under the Dome are exactly the opposite. The Committee fights for absolute control, while Picnic is free-spirited and wants to obey no one. The Fops are mad raiders. They enjoy chaos and destruction, and are mentally stuck somewhere at the level of children. They have no constructive long-term goals and live here and now. Phalanx are no longer raiders, but not yet PMC. With all their might, they try to strengthen their position in the world under the Dome. Building firepower, reputation, and looking for a way to enter the big politics of the Dome. Carmine Heights is a society of engineers built on the principles of rationalism and asceticism, which seeks to squeeze the most out of scarce resources. There are many rules: water and electricity consumption standards, a mandatory four-hour workday, a system of rewards and fines for misbehavior. It is an almost completely autonomous state. Maelstrom Church was originally developed as a way to control the lower, superstitious part of the Dome's population, but after the Incident that severed communication with the outside world, the organization asserted itself in a new way. It's now a real church of the Maelstrom, with its own pastors and parishioners. And in its ranks are some of the strongest psionics and technological fanatics, which, together with the support of the general population, makes the church one of the strongest factions under the Dome.

How the community influenced the development of Encased

Iron_Orcasteam_community_announcementsworkshop

1815d ago

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/1a50cdbb94143b138856d6407a55d8979d4a0b34.gif Dear subscribers! Once again, the latest issue of the post-apocalyptic CRONUS Weekly is on your screens. Can anyone hear us? Today we want to talk about how feedback and creativity from players has changed our game.

Settlers under the Dome

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/ae61b411c4546b37c59618a2ff0c414adbeceacb.gif In Encased, players will choose between six unique companions, but did you know that Crump was created by one of the players? Crump is one of the profiles that players sent us through a special site right after the kickstarter campaign. Engineer Yuki Tetsunai was also added to the game this way.

Character creation and leveling up

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/12494bf9fbdda0a1b71e3925fcd650aeea03ecb7.png Balance is a tricky thing, so every content patch we monitored player feedback and made the changes we thought were necessary. There's probably not a single skill left in the game that hasn't been affected in one way or another by player feedback. We hope that our combined efforts will be noticeable at release, and that new players will have a much more balanced game to look forward to.

UI

{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/33590587/afb24d979f89c8ae31208408e76be34904be4f03.png A user-friendly interface is one of the keys to success of any game. Players should intuitively understand what, where, and how to click for a particular action. Encased is a tribute to Fallout, but the interface doesn't have to stay the same as it was decades ago. Thanks to player feedback and gameplay clips, we've greatly improved the usability. Players no longer have to spend hours looking for the right button.
