Impact Winter News — September 15, 2017
Aggregated from Steam, cross-tracked with Battle.net coverage on GamePatchNote.
Hello Survivors,
This latest update brings us to Impact Winter V.2.0.
There have been many bug fixes and adjustments made since the last update, mainly focusing on performance and tech…
• Performance: major improvements to the game’s FPS across all machine specs. Players should see noticeable differences to how the game runs.
• Further improvements to load times.
• Various control fixes and adjustments
• Various collision and navigation fixes
• Bug: Stranger icons (radar) now disappear if stranger is no longer active
• Bug: NPC flee event now behaves correctly
• Bug: Skidoo collision issues fixed
Aside from the notables above, there have also been many other miscellaneous bugs fixed since the previous version.
We are also pleased to announce a new addition to the game: ‘Expert Mode’. This is a new challenge for seasoned players (or the more hardcore amongst you) that introduces permadeath to the experience. Unlike the standard mode, Expert Mode will not allow you to continue your game if Jacob is killed, meaning you’ll have to survive a full 30 day playthrough without perishing. Note: this also comes with its own achievement.
We are also pleased to announce the addition of Steam trading cards to the game.
Finally, we’d like to take this opportunity to both thank players for their support and apologise for the issues at launch. We’ll continue to work on the game and listen to feedback as we continue to support the game.
For Japanese players: because of specific requirements, this patch will be added deployed with a slight delay in Japan.
