Sneak Peek Dev Update We've been very busy the past few weeks. We've finished the technical components for v1- survival mechanics, looting, crafting, combat, ai. We've also been doing a lot of thinking about how to make The Wild unique and not just a mobile version of the hit open-world games on Steam - many of which have very similar environments. So we totally reimagined the terrain,, tools, weapons and armor, and we've added two more classes of deformed as well as added military. But when we built out the all new desert, dunes, forest environment we were met with a new problem- a map this size is too taxing if we had you just walking and running... so we made a hover bike!! Now you'll need to keep it fuelled up by finding batteries around the island, but it's a blast to cruise around and explore. Just don't get stranded at night, nights get dark... Anyway, we're going to have a lot of progress within the next 24hrs showing oases, military and deformed settlements, and some of the armor and weapons/tools! Happy week everyone! Thanks for all the support! P.S We're getting great performance. And remember, this is just sneak peek, a lot more to come soon!
Interesting... So maybe survival on another planet? That would be sick. Add aliens or something along with the deformed. I agree, this should be unique, something that says "hey you like the forest right, well try this"
The desert environment for starters was a surprising change ! But a hover bike!? Is M. Night Shyamalan behind this? What A Twist! It all looks beautiful guys keep up the great work!
Thanks Wikilix!! Lots more to showcase soon so you'll get an even fuller picture as we have oases and settlements (military and deformed to drop in).
Those pics look quite incredible,The progress this game has made is quite astounding.I would really love to see a gameplay video or two when it's ready though,It's going to be a hit take my word for it .
It's all happening too! Will have another update tonight having added oases, military settlements and deformed settlements to really make the world diverse!! Ps- we've been watching videos of Tatooine if anyone is curious about the reference.
Eeeehhh I don't like the sound of aliens, I like it only with deformed. And the hover bike just came in out of no where but I still like it. But if I don't want to use it in the game sometimes, can you guys make a game setting that allows us to use it or not use it Thanks P.S - Game looks AMAZING
This is the open world genre, you play however you like, however you feel. We just want to make sure there's lots of content.
As long as the game plays well i dont mind if its aliens/deformed/zombies/pink fairies etc Hoverbike was a nice surprise (or should i say speederbike), plus Tatooine reference as well, sounding better and better!
There won't be aliens per se Area 51, rather we'll be adding more to the family of deformed. Main objective for the deformed - be scary as hell!
Cool I like the fact that it's only gonna be deformed. But are we gonna have scary music, especially when the deformed appear?
lovin' the hoverbike idea. it feels like i'd normally be offput by its presence (it seems a little unfitting in a bare-bones, survival situation) but the thought of driving it around the island just seems like too much damn fun for me to ever frown in its direction. keep up the good work, love the update!
