Hunters, brace yourselves
Zakov just got a whole lot more unpredictable! We’re excited to introduce our latest update 1.0.16, which brings a dynamic weather system, seasons, and a new survival mechanic to the game!
???? [b]New Weather System[/b]
[i][b]Snow is Back for Good! [/b][/i]❄️ No more waiting—Zakov’s harsh winters are here to stay.
[b][i]Seasons in the Wasteland:[/i][/b] Every two in-game weeks now represents a full year, bringing changing temperatures and climates to every raid location.
[b][i]Real-Time Weather Updates:[/i][/b] Weather conditions shift every 3 in-game hours, affecting temperature, visibility, and survival strategies.
????️ [b]New Survival Tool & Visual Enhancements[/b]
[b][i]Weather Kit:[/i][/b] You can now craft a Weather Kit to monitor temperature on your PDA and check the next 6 hours of weather at each location before heading out.
[b][i]Enhanced Weather Effects:[/i][/b] We’ve added new shaders to bring in greater immersion - for example, rainy days now appear desaturated and dimly lit for a truly moody atmosphere. We’ve also added a toggle setting to disable the new color gradient overlay for extra accessibility and customisation.
???? [b]Other Improvements[/b]
[b][i]Hunter & Gun Skills Notification:[/i][/b] A new PDA icon alerts you when you have unspent skill points - never forget to utilise your points again!
Alongside these new features we’ve also been working on some bug fixes which we know have been troubling many of you!
- Steam Cloud saving is fixed (new check with communicating with Steam)
- Inventory sorting fixes to prevent icon overlaps
- Inventory auto-sort and rotation fixes
- More fixes implemented towards blue void issue
- Player is now able to sell Santa’s backpack
- Immortality Hunter Skill does not occupy a Tier-1 skill slot, allowing full roster of skills to be acquired
