addedRadio TowerA brand new Radio Tower building became available with this update. The radio tower allows players to engage in interactive events. The event choices rely on the character stats like strength, endurance, agility, etc.. The radio tower building has available upgrades that increase the Signal Strength stat which in return influences the events generated. Each event can have up to three phases, each phase has three steps that players can make choices for. Depending on the success of each step, a reward is being yielded in the event rewards tab. Upon completing the event, an event completion reward is being granted based on the overall performance of the event steps. The interactive events are being generated at a cost of camp fame stat. The camp fame can be gained from constructing camp upgrades, bought for cash from the general camp vendor or gain by killing enemies in free roam. Each enemy kill now grants different amount of fame, depending on which enemy players have taken down.
