Resource Outposts (the ones that offer Food, Ammo, etc) now allow you to upgrade them to enhance their benefits. Each map features one such outpost for you to try. Landmark Outposts are unique sites that offer three different benefit strategies to choose from when you claim them as an outpost. Note that some locations may be “claimed” by multiple plague hearts with overlapping territories! You cannot claim a home site or an outpost within plague territory until you have defeated the nearby plague heart that controls that location. Plague Territories are infected regions controlled by plague hearts. All new communities will have these features enabled by default. All three affect the map in ways that won’t show up for existing communities, so you must change maps (or map difficulty) to try them out. We’ve added three new features to enhance the strategic challenge of the game. Introducing Plague Territories, Landmark Outposts, and Upgradeable Outposts The added bonus is that we get to be more transparent with you about what we’re making and why. Our primary goal is to make sure we’re creating changes you enjoy, that enhance your gameplay experience. Be sure to join the developers and your fellow testers in our official Discord (join the Public Test Realm channel!) You will use that to give us your honest feedback. The QR code and the button to take the survey are available at all times from the pause screen. Once you’re in the open beta, you’ll be shown a QR code that links to a survey.

There’s no better way to do that than by hearing from you before those changes even ship. As developers, we always want player feedback as we make changes. We are continuing active development on the game, from mechanics to features.
