Bugfix for safehouse territory

Some safehouse upgrades were artificially boosting territory. Fixed and recalculated. See forum for details: http://forum.worldofthelivingdead.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2562

Bugfix

Some players were no longer receiving family rescue missions. SCUGS has been given a good kick and they should see family missions appearing again soon.

Bugfix

FNP-45, SAW M249, Mare’s Leg Pistol fixed. Drag and drop to a safehouse or location to reset firepower and then back to survivor.

LA stats

Bugfix

Destroyed faction safehouses were not visible to players not in a faction.

Safehouse scavenge bonus fix

We’ve put out a patch to fix the bug which allowed safehouse scavenge bonuses to stack. This was never intended and was an exploit which crept in when we recoded for open beta. Thanks to those of you who reported it and especially thanks to those of you who were aware of it but didn’t exploit it. From now on, only the highest bonus from a safehouse will apply to a scavenge location.

WotLD news

Thank you to everyone who supported development of the game by buying NC and the Zed Hunter Bug-out Bag this weekend. We hope that the recent server issues have calmed down a little and that you should see better performance in the game.

For anyone who missed the sale of the SAW M249 recently in the Apocalypse Warrior Bug-out Bag, you can win one by entering a competition to describe a NECRA safehouse over on the forum.

Don’t forget to check out the excellent first issue of fan-created LA Deadly News. Rumor has it that the editor has incredibly found the resources in zombie-ridden LA to put out another issue soon, so look out for a copy on a corpse near you!

If you want to get some extra NC and help promote WotLD so that we can continue to expand in 2012, make sure you vote every day and also consider following us on Twitter or liking us on Facebook.

If you’re finding WotLD tough, remember to make good use of the amazing player-created and maintained wiki (thanks to those of you who put in so much time there!) and also tell us your suggestions on the WotLD feedback pages.

We’ll be adding a list of known bugs to the Developer Blog on the forum over the next few days. Now that things are a little quieter and the server hamsters can relax, we hope to regularly deal with such issues as the apparent combat threshold, ammo consumption, malfunctioning firearms, poorly-producing emergency gardens and purifiers, and other irritations which shouldn’t be part of the life of a NECRA Operative.

Good luck out there!
