changedThis week, we wanted to talk a bit about one of the game's core mechanics; mutations. As your character's infection level progresses, it cuts your maximum health, but it can also have potent benefits. When it reaches certain points, you'll be given a choice of several effects.
addedMaybe you want to be stronger at night, or hardier against poison? Or maybe you're sick of getting tossed around by bigger enemies like the Charger, and want to be able to dish it out yourself. There are a variety of mutations in the game right now, and we'll be adding in more as we ramp up to launch.
changedOf course, the more mutations you have, the less overall health you have, which means it gets that much more dangerous to get into combat. You can find antiviral that can slow the infection, but it's not a cure. You'll want to balance how you handle the zombie virus inside you with your playstyle - do you want to slow it down as much as you can and rely on your own skills, or are you willing to take a risk for the increased power it gives you at the cost of your own humanity?
changedAs for us, we're continuing to work on polishing up the game for our beta testers when that kicks off later this year. There's already a lot of content to play through, but we want to ensure we have a solid, stable game for you to play around with.
