The Long Dark Sandbox Alpha Updated to v.346 -- "PENITENT SCHOLAR"

[TLD Survivalist]

@Blinkin Yeah I understand its just rough is all anxiety is real... And I love the game and where its going... Ive just never been a real patient man... Plus the saltiness towards xbox and microsoft is another issue entirely... I just let it get to me is all.... Ill still continue to visit the forums day in day out.. And apply my two cents in discussions where applicable..

[Blinkin]

Thanks for the update Patrick!

Every platform had it's own build(s) so I understand this takes time. And I'm glad there's some information about it now.
The thing that makes people ask about when it will be released to their platform is mainly in the lack of communication I think (which there is now).
When you say as a developers studio that the new update is out but it isn't on each platform, that's understandable. But when you'll keep completely quite about those platforms people start to feel 'left in the dark'.

So thanks again for the update about the current status. It gives me the feeling that there's currently being worked on. It's much appreciated. Again, thank you!

its not Hinterlands fault its microsofts.. For the PC hinterland can release updated right away. But for the Xbox the update has to go direct to Microsoft and they analyze and check it and analyze and check it etc.. it takes days for microsoft to allow it to be downloaded to the xbox..

true but you have to look at the good side of that.. sometimes an update will crash your version of the game on the pc world and make it unplayable and you have to wait for the next hotfix. that dosnt usually happen on the xbox so yea we have to wait, but it is more stable and we can still play until its released

Yeah and the Xbox One verson is a lot less laggy compared to the PC version, trust me I have played both versions and the difference is remarkable.

I was attempting to make a joke about how with all the new content I'd probably spend more time on TLD than my paper. Guess I failed.

5 days waiting for the update is quite fast if you would ask me. They're doing everything they can.

[Blinkin]

Sorry for the double post but I wanted to thank Hinterland and team because I just saw GOG received update 348!
So thank you all for the hard work, this is way faster than I expected to receive the update. Thanks!

Thanks Blinkin, we're glad to get it out there in the wild! Safe travels.

Ok.  We're good to go in xBox world.  Now if only I didn't have work!

Thanks, Hinterland.  My whining wasn't aimed at you guys.  I would never talk badly about you guys :-)

[Tbone555]

Another hotfix today?

I played this afternoon (Europe) for a bit, and am now downloading 200mb.

Can't find any announcements here or on Steam...
