Hey survivors
[p]We implemented a mix of long-requested quality-of-life features, a brand-new survival scenario, system reworks, and a tribute to our most resilient players. Here’s what’s new:[/p][p][/p]Free Crafting Option (Story Mode) ????
[p]You can now toggle Free Crafting in the Gameplay Settings for Story Mode.[/p][p]This option is available only in Story Mode and can be enabled or disabled at any moment, giving you full control over your experience.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38695406/a47f5301fcb5ed0923f9beb48dbb8dcf77846d41.jpg"][/img][/p][p]Why did we add this?[/p][p]We received a lot of feedback from players who love the narrative, atmosphere, and characters of Story Mode, but don’t necessarily enjoy the resource-gathering loop. This feature lets you focus entirely on the story, exploration, and decision-making — without removing the survival mechanics for those who still want them.[/p][p]Your story, your pace.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38695406/c7022328f52e041f333a0b591aed4c14955462d1.png"][/img][/p]New Survival Scenario – Accident ????
[p]In this scenario, your goal is simple:[/p]- [p]Keep Joel alive for as long as you can.[/p][/*]
Adaptation Disorder Rework ????
[p]We’ve reworked the Adaptation Disorder system to make it and less cumbersome.[/p][p]The number of steps required to recover from a disorder has been reduced, and the flow is now much easier to understand.[/p][p][img src="https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/38695406/62b767a2ea93294530805ac31df65086969eddb4.jpg"][/img][/p][p]Once you complete the challenge associated with a disorder, the recovery process automatically completes the section you started recovering. No extra micromanagement, no confusion about what happens next, progress is clearer and more rewarding.[/p][p]This keeps the system meaningful while reducing unnecessary friction.[/p][p][/p]Antipsychotic Pills – Re-enabled ????
[p]Antipsychotic Pills are back.[/p][p]They once again allow you to:[/p]- [p]instantly resolve an active disorder challenge[/p][/*]
- [p]immediately recover the disorder that was in the recovery phase[/p][/*]
- [p]prevent a disorder from appearing[/p][/*]
- [p]or avoid symptoms entirely[/p][/*]
