The Forest

Discussion in 'Other Games' started by Footheboss, Dec 6, 2018.

  1. Greetings. The Forest is a survival/WTF crafting-fight mutants and save your son game.



    Anyways.... I have a 10 man private server. Not much to do right now other than sharpen your fighting skills because come Monday, there will be a game altering patch that will require a wipe. Regardless, the server will still be up and I am offering it to my fellow members. One thing to point out is this will be for members/friends of members only as of now so the server will require a password. Also, respect someones building location/property in-game please. Thanks and enjoy!

  5. ITS HERE!!!
    A few quick things
    o The server is going to stay private. Consider this a fun little server to get together on and help each other out. If you have friends that want to join, please let them at your own discretion.
    o We are all Members and Adults. Please do not destroy bases, grief bases or troll bases. I for one like building solo however others like to build in groups. Please respect that choice.
    o Do not steal other peoples gear/weapons and so on. The server is very basic and I cant just magically spawn a specific weapon to replace something.
    o HAVE FUN!
    Anyways, I just updated the Server with the fresh install of the recent patch. I hope you enjoy and I look forward to rescuing Timmy with you all!

    And for those of you who care, here are the recent patch notes.
    V1.10

    Hey Everyone,

    This Update adds new buildables, some new caves to find those buildables in, a new weapon type, two new late game creatures, and a ton more. If you’ve completed the alternate ending you’ll also find some new decorative buildables available in your survival book.

    We’ve also improved some of the games visuals, including the large lake in the middle of the world, tweaked the look of our ambient occlusion to detail shade things further back, improved shadow distance rendering and also improved the look of tree textures and the distant billboards. Along with this there are new volumetric clouds (can be toggled off if you prefer the old looking clouds) Improved underwater rendering including new caustic effects and lots more.

    To help stop cheating in multiplayer, we removed exploits that would allow players to simulate damage on other players or instant kill them using cheats. We also fixed exploits with our building system that could allow players to damage buildings with cheats even if building destruction was set to off. We also fixed an issue where players could pretend to be other players in chat. In addition to this, you can now kick and ban any player in your server, even if they have made themselves invisible.

    PS4 version of this patch is in process of being submitted and should release later this afternoon. We will do a separate post once it is ready.
