Admin Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 The Long Dark’s Survival Mode has just been updated to a new version, HESITANT PROSPECT.NEW REGION: ASH CANYON Far on the other side of Timberwolf Mountain is a difficult-to-reach area defined by steep cavernous walls and burned-out forests. If you can navigate your way through the treacherous landscape, you might find an abandoned mine that hides treasures worth more than gold to any survivor. Just be careful when crossing the harrowing rope-bridges. It’s a long way down!NEW GEAR ITEMSCRAMPONS, left behind by an intrepid climber who ran out of luck. Wearing these helps prevent sprains, and makes it easier to travel over Weak Ice.A TECHNICAL PACK adds a permanent capacity buff to your Survivor’s inventory, giving you a little more breathing room as you carry your life-saving supplies around on your back.NEW CHALLENGE: DARKWALKER + FEAT HESITANT PROSPECT also presents an updated version of the popular ESCAPE THE DARKWALKER Halloween event we launched this year. You are being hunted by a malevolent invisible force. Use special paint Glyphs to buy yourself time to escape. Time spent in each region counts down towards toxic green fog appearing which will slowly suffocate you. You must BANISH the Darkwalker before you run out of time! Completing the Darkwalker Challenge unlocks a new Darkwalker Feat, which, when enabled in Survival Mode, gives you a stamina boost at night, while draining stamina during the day. NEW CUSTOM MODE SETTING: ENDLESS NIGHT You can now set up your custom Survival games so that day never comes...QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS We’ve made some quality of life improvements to the game’s Front End, including the Region Selection menu. You’ll also notice that we’ve updated the game’s Main Menu in honour of HESITANT PROSPECT, and moving forward every major update to the game will come with a new Main Menu that reflects the latest new content. ---CHANGELIST v1.89 [69558]HIGHLIGHTS New Region: Ash Canyon New Challenge Mode: Darkwalker New UI: Region Selection Menu New Gear Items: Crampons and the Technical Backpack GENERAL FIXES [General] Fixed an issue that caused the game to hang when loading, while a third party overlay (IE Steam, Nvidia overlays) was active.

Mistral Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) Already in, amazing! Some issues already though: all settings (note: literally all) have reset back to defaults.

Sin embargo, ya hay algunos problemas: todas las configuraciones (nota: literalmente todas) se han restablecido a los valores predeterminados. Además, cambiar las combinaciones de teclas no hace nada that is normal because when making adjustments in the configurations these are set to default Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nervous Pete Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Excellent! Ash Canyon looks like a cosy romantic getaway retreat. Can't wait to take a gander! The technical backpack and crampons look like worthy additions too. My PC Steam version updated quick, so good work there. Has anyone's Switch version updated yet though, and if not, does anyone know when that rolls out? I fancy curling up on the sofa under a blanket later with a cuppa and playing on the handheld, but I can wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yollarbenibekler Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Definitely bugged. My 700 day run in PV is ruined, for now. Hope they'll fix it. And I can not go outside. When I go out, the game is stuck on the last screen (leave homestead) All the furniture is gone too. And with it, all my stuff inside the cabinets too.

EfoDom Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 [Hunted Pt 2] Fixed an issue that would cause the Old Bear to disappear, if the player transitioned at a very specific point in the Old Bear’s animation. Seems like they fixed the bug that the bear would despawn in his cave after the player entered a building. This happened to a lot of players from what I've seen.

Much appreciated! I'm assuming the backpack is available from Stalker downwards, right? I'm coming right in to check for Loper crampons, just need a long long trek to get there.
