To clarify, will there be a Dev Diary entry before the Update video to shed light on Part 5?

Cannot wait for a cougar. I am thinking at which region I would likely interact with it for the very first time.

Dude, will the next DLC update come in September? Because he has a goal of releasing the 5th Episode by the end of this year and December, choosing which one to release and how will be a big challenge.It was also said that there was a possibility that surprises that were not on the list when the DLC was released would come to the expansion pack. I hope there will be things that will add color to the game.For example, Food part 2, Clothes, new mechanics etc.

Honestly I'm hoping Wintermute is released next, just so all the people screaming on Steam have a reason to be happy finally.

People who scream on steam are never happy

Yeah! Can't wait! Good job guys!

Do we know anything yet about TFTFT part 6?

@Raphael van Lierop

[Ronger97]

@Pyroxene

We know it should contain everything on the DLC roadmap that's not already released or in Part 5! Which at this point should include (but not limited too) Base customization, some sort of Trader, and in game camera and related equipment to develop your own photos

@Raphael van Lierop

Would it be irresponsible to speculate? It'd be irresponsible not to!

[Pyroxene]

@stratvox

I'm speculating that part 6 will be a coastal region

[K3V038]

So we will get the update video the same time we get tftft part 5? It would be a bit better if we got it a bit early to get ready for whats coming beforehand...

Depending on which platform you use...  I see the video hours before the update turns up on Xbox....

I think that the high pass region is going to be the last region added to TFTFT. I do think that part 5 of Wintermute will feature a coastal region, based on that picture of the steam-powered sail ship in the teaser image for it:

 

Like I said at the time, if you think about it, a sailing ship with an aftermarket steam engine installed would be a good way to get around the world after the Flare, because none of those technologies are reliant in any way on properly functioning electrical circuits so they wouldn't get destroyed by it.

And a second DLC soon after.

Right? ….. right?

😁

Looking forward for the last part and episode! Late 2024 is gonna be great, whenever they come.

[rush247]

@thekillergreece I think they already said that the last parts of Wintermute and Tales (and any bug fixes) are the last things they're doing with this game so they can move onto new projects.

It'll give me something to do while I download the update

Just signed off on Monday's update video. It's over 10 mins long and full of great stuff. I'm so excited for you all to see it that I'm almost ready to leak it to you myself. The team has really outdone themselves with this update, and I personally think it's one of our best update videos yet. I know it's infuriating to read this and still have to wait a few days. And I'm sure there will be some surprises and upsets on Monday, but just at this very moment I feel so proud of the team and this is the best best part of the update process -- just before it drops, when I can imagine all your faces when you open it up and see what's in store...

The team's just putting the final touches on things and we're finalizing the release notes and all that last-minute stuff...but it's not far now. See you on Monday at 10AM Pacific. 

[Leeanda]

I love the enthusiasm, and you should be proud,you all should... 

Looking forward to the video on Monday and trying out the new stuff first thing Tuesday morning...pesky time difference 😁

Dude, you know exactly how to create excitement.I probably won't be able to watch it on Monday because I'll be at work. But I will watch the video with great curiosity next Saturday.But there is a question that comes to my mind.This sentence is a very magical sentence. "And I'm sure there will be some surprises and upsets on Monday"Let's see what surprises or sadness await us. It's such an open-ended sentence, everything comes to my mind.  I believe it will be a nice update.We trust Hinterland studio and you

Haha - oh, well no I wasn't thinking of anything specific. Just a more general statement on how people react to new things, kind of inspired by the discussion over here:
