So to get this out the way before we start: this is yet another real short teaser post with not much new and cool in it
Two things I want to talk about on that front:
Thing 1: Animal Crossing New Horizons is consuming my life
Thing 2: We’ve entered the phase where there’s not really much new to show off, instead most of the content now is refining what we’ve got and filling in the gaps
Architectural styles are defined, design docs made, etc
Sadly that means ‘new’ content will be largely few and far between over the next couple teasers, but hey, we’re making progress still
Anyway, bad news out the way, let’s talk cool stuff:
For what might be the first time in Unturned history, you now have your own place to call home that isn’t a base out in the middle of the woods
introducing…
!! YOUR PRIVATE ROOM !!
Doing a short quest for a gentleman named Hadiq Velor will net you the access key for Private Room #3, located just inside the Stavex Underground safezone
As you complete major quests for the locals, little figurines and artifacts will start appearing on the shelves - with mythical weapon quests putting a replica version on a cool wall mount
Interacting with them will let you read quest-related lore or let you rebuy lost mythical items at a decently hefty cost (once that function gets added, issue #1461 on the 3.0 Github)
Unfortunately due to game limitations you can’t store things in it or change your spawn point, and if you’re playing multiplayer you might have to share the bed and beanbag chair with at most 24 other people at any given time
However nobody can hurt you or your clientside figurine collections so there’s no real need to worry too much about 18 heavily armed security goons manifesting themselves in your private room
Speaking of mythical items
It’s time to get the dramatic voice out
Thousands of miles below the surface of Stasven, an intrepid core-diver has made a terrifying discovery.
Enter the Temple and solve a mystery millennia in the making in LAZARUS, one of the first mythical quests now in early development for Stasven.
It’s gonna be real dark and real spooky, but you get a rad gun out of it
Speaking of early development
Some of you might’ve seen this bad boy - the Valence Type-C four door sedan (light gray) - in a car model thread earlier this month, where it was promptly met with ‘this looks fat and ugly’ comments
Unfortunately for those commenters, I don’t care
It’s my cheese wedge car and I will protect it and tell my friends and neighbors about it
The interior’s pretty rad, it’s got holograms and the car’s onboard AI calls you handsome
Plus, there’s a hidden synthwave button somewhere so you can hit it and pretend you’re Ryan Gosling in Drive
Speaking of Ryan Gosling in Drive
That’s all we’ve got for now, 'bout to go drive off into the sunset in my chromed up cheese grater on wheels
Hope y’all are staying safe and not dying horribly to coronavirus - respect your state/country lockdown orders or whatever, only go out if you absolutely need to, wear your masks, etc etc
If any of y’all also play Animal Crossing New Horizons I’m gonna put a reply down whenever my clothes shop opens back up with a bunch of AC clothes that are replicas of civilian shirts from Stasven
