The update on August 15th, 2019 will introduce a new perspective to Fishing, an addition to Charles Town and a lot of quality of life improvements! Let's just jump right into it.
-EXCLUSIVE-
This Summer themed update brings street style Unstoppable Youth outfits with denim, dyed hair, tattoos etc. As always, players can enjoy limited time discount on these outfits during this event.
I have a feeling the exclusive emotes for these outfits are gonna be pretty cool!
-EVENTS-
There will be 5 events again like the last update with duo training making a back to back to back return.
The survivors with manor level 3 or above have the opportunity to obtain Firework Materials during gathering, combat and fishing. Turning in the firework materials to residents in Private Camp, Hope 101 and in Santopany would get daily rewards. On the day, enough supplies are collected, local fireworks will be arranged. Photographs with fireworks will give you rewards. This event has been there before and has been an easy way to get some skill points and new dollars by taking selfies with Fireworks everyday.
There is a new Fishing Contest which would be held everyday from 1200 to 1400 and from 1800 to 2000. The more fish you catch in 8 minutes, the higher points & rewards you earn. The top 10 survivors, from each difficulty level, each day will receive additional rewards. Keep in mind that Manual Fishing is faster than Auto Fishing so if you're aiming for the top spots then Manual is the way to go.
Cooking Competition is coming back and will be held every day from 1000 to 1400 and from 1700 to 2100, like last time. You have 60 seconds and a set of ingredients which you have to use make the dish whose image that pops up. The more dishes you make, the better your spot on the leaderboard and if you are in the top 10 you get additional rewards. You can keep the dishes you make so this is a free way to get some good quality food for your daily chores. Earlier it was focused on Desserts, let's see what kind of dishes do we have this time around.
Summer Treasures are here! Exchange 120 Hand Fan for 100 New Dollars, and get 1 Treasure Hunt chance to win random rewards in the prize pool.
Aug 24th - Aug 28th, 3 group sale items refresh every midnight. The number of people that buy the item decided the final prices. Survivors purchase items at their original price firstly and receive the price difference refund the next day through their mail. Great way to get stuff at a discounted coust.
Duo Training is back with a bang! As always you get rewards for completing small tasks with or without a partner. The currency earned through these tasks can be redeemed for prizes which include the stone version of western courtyard and watermelon backpacks.
-FISHING-
Fishing mechanics have received a performance boost this update with new fishes introduced to the game. And more fishes equal more dishes.
Fishing now has upto 10 levels. There are new types of lures to create personal fishing spots in this update. New fishing rods will be given upon clearing Level 5 and Level 8. Some new fish can only be caught by the player under special circumstances, such as specific maps, specific weather, day/night etc. You also have a chance to hook treasure chests while fishing, which contain gold bars, new dollars or semi-finished materials. Using the right bait for fishing can improve fishing efficiency.
Fishing has gotten lots of love this update and I think you'll see a lot of people fishing from Santopany shacks August 15th onwards.
For the current list of 136 dishes, check here.
-WALLPAPER TRIAL-
We can finally try different combinations of wallpapers in Wallpaper Trial on our manor before buying and we don't need to go to furniture shop anymore for the same. Plus, there will be different wallpapers every week open for purchase and certain wallpapers will have discounts as well.
Making your home pretty in a post-apocalyptic world has never been easier!
-CHARLES TOWN-
Every server will receive "Booty Event", Season 3 onwards. A unique hidden treasure gameplay is added.
Survivors in the camps bury treasure chests to hide them from other camps' survivors. Finding another camps' chest gains them points.
The winners of this season will also get banners to flex.
There's more! The dividend rewards now also include exclusive mysterious weapons and exclusive limited-time backpack.
Enemy transfer stations now open from 1900 to 2100.
Charles Town Clash now has a lower limit of 48 camps instead of 64.
Adjusted the location of World Bosses that spawn documents.
A rather refreshing change to Charles Town. I think this will balance things out a bit and will be fun to watch and play due to the upgrade to rewards and dividends.
-SMART STORAGE-
The Smart Storage system just became smarter! Now, the system will display all the items in categories. Also, you can now choose whether to deposit in the current locker or all lockers collectively which is a massive quality of life update. Apart from that, the mailbox and the storage will now have an option to allow non-identical items to be transferred using Smart Storage.
-REWARD ADJUSTMENTS-
In CaravanSupplies Transport, you can now earn Formula Shards from the resource chest.
Millitary Drills new dollars reward has been greatly improved.
Nancy City Drill Medals can now be exchanged for Formula R&D Data and Module Etchant.
A new automatic team matching function is introduced that allows to find other survivors easily to do tasks together. The team leader can now also set the occupation and level limits for the team.
We can now use Nanoplastic I and Nanoplastic II to do Simple Repairs. This is a good update to repairing because new dollars can now be saved for other purposes.
Added Camp Invitation button to allow survivors to send them to friends in PM.
The display settings have added contrast enhancement settings. After listening to the feedback for the new graphics, this change will help players customize their display according to their wills.
Players can now revenge when their Invader has moved but are still in private camps. Earlier this was a bug used by many to protect from revenge raiding but it's fixed in this update.
HopeAfter Newspaper will now recommend camps to survivors who have not joined a camp yet.
