I would like to share the progress on the development of the new free roam wilderness map as well as talk about some of the features it will bring into the gameplay and a course of the development for the upcoming week.
Overall I am happy with the progress and internal performance testing is showing good results!
Over the last couple of weeks I was able to develop, design and build several location templates that will help with the construction process a lot and will also speed things up. Now, just to clarify what I mean by templates..
It does NOT mean that the locations will look the same, no. The templates I'm referring to are technical templates that allow me to easily create location layers. The locations will be different and I would like to show and talk about some of them.
In the screenshot below, you can see an example of an industrial type locations that will be available for exploration.
Here is another example of a rural location.
Players will often find abandoned cars and trucks on roads and highways.
And of course, gas stations and other service area locations.
Most of the locations will have one or more events with increased chance for higher grade loot.
I plan to continue working on constructing the free roam map for the next week and then start preparing the build for an update that will include a portion of the free roam wilderness map.
Thank you!
