Method of storing money


money in Deadside will become virtual, no longer stored as a physical item in a slot. Your money will be stored instead on the game server, with your total displayed on the top right of your inventory. This means you can now buy items at a Roaming Trader without bringing the money. also removes the limit on money stacks, making storage much simpler overall.

Method of Transport

reminder to check the index for other info! --->



For the longest time, Deadside had no options for transportation, until boats came out, but they were loud and slow and never easy to find.
Now getting around should be a lot faster and easier for players,
Cars - Can be found primarily in Kamensk, the North Island Military Base, and the new Airfield.
Motorcycles - can be found all over the map, typically in garages, or on the side of the road.



Updated Travel Points

This new system would use the new virtually stored money, to quickly travel across the map using an underground mining network. Each fast travel point is a small mini safezone, so that players aren’t killed while loading into the new area. You can think of these almost as an extraction zone, where you can pay money to quickly travel to the safezone traders. Here you can see a work in progress screenshot of the new map with this system, each fast travel point has been highlighted to make them easier to see:


New POI (expansion)

-New update opens a large area in the south east, also adds a new POI: Airfield, new towns, and more events in the southern areas of the map, (small areas building added throughout map/campsites/caves/more abandoned cars. also includes more vegetation in more areas)




New Items Introduced / Trader Progression

-Scrap Metal - an incredibly important resource at all levels of progression, required to level up traders, and to upgrade your base to the highest metal tier. Spawns in most areas across the map and can be found alone or by searching trash piles and other interact-able things, and will undoubtedly be fought over ;)
-Base Decorations - Provides a comfort level that gives your player a buff, higher levels have better benefits. Buff can be retained after leaving your base for a short time. These items include a ceiling lamp, rugs, chairs, deer/fish mounts, Interact-able Foosball table, A cooking Grill, and a generator that requires gas to power things such as lights and other future electrical. There is also a TV, radio, a new table saw and a new resource cabinet to upkeep your base!



A complete base building Re-haul



-Base Building 2.0 - Remodeled structures that can be upgraded to stronger materials, also added a layer of protection including bars, windows shutters, and barbed wire. Break base upkeep to change location
Improved Storage - Upgradable storage crates that can be upgraded to stronger materials, added a new craftable safe, vehicles can now be stored at bases. There will be a total of 6 different unique faction flags that can be used to put on a base, along with camo netting that can be placed on outside walls and in windows to hide your base. There is also new shelves to stack loot boxes.


-New automated Defense - to the left is the tier one turret, This turret can be made with a handful of shotgun parts, branches, and some rope (not final) . Its field of view is limited to the direction that the barrel is pointed, and fires when an unauthorized player steps into view. Electricity isn’t required to make this turret function. Below is a photo of what the higher tier Turrets will look like. These turrets can be hidden or placed in the open and require electricity.




There will also be a new camera system so you can check outside your base for potential door campers or raiders as seen below:


-Raiding 2.0 - Will feature 3 server raiding game modes: raiding enabled, raiding disabled, and raiding enabled on decay. There will also be more options for weapons used for raiding instead of only a c4, there will now be less powerful but still useful item: dynamite as well.
-Explosives will now have a blast radius and can destroy multiple walls or even collapse anything above the destroyed build.
-Crates will now drop items when destroyed!
-Small Chests can now be locked and upgraded, but can be disassembled if they are placed inside of your base claim area
-A garage can now be built to store cars and prevent them from despawning.

@slime, cupboard is base claim.

[Slime]

Haven’t tested, probably should have by now. But how many bases can a player have on a server since there isn’t technically land claim? Or is the cupboard the land claim now

[Capt. Make It Happen]

@FallenRaven39 you have to wack bushes with a knife, only a certain kind of bush. this feature has been the same since before 1.0

[FallenRaven39]

How do you get branches

[Capt. Make It Happen]

@ wallace, Wipes everything. Very similar to the game Rust.

[Wallace]

quick question guys, does anyone know how wipe works? I play on a official server that says 3 week wipe, what sort of wipe I wonder, base only? everything?. Thanks in advance

[Capt. Make It Happen]

Check the "Base Decorations" section of the guide and look at the first picture shown, this is your resource cabinet

[Reapergods666]

Dating just ran into trouble to demolish the jumper on the base and how to do it nowhere found)
thanks I'll try

[Capt. Make It Happen]

@Reapergods666 use hammer and go up to tool cabinet where you store mats for upkeep. There should be an option to remove it,if not, you will need to destroy it, or take materials out and wait for the base to deteriorate . Its very similar to the game Rust now if you are familiar.

[Reapergods666]

@Capt. Make It Happen Do you by any chance know how to delete buildings on your base?))
