Introduction to the Patch Update
The popular multiplayer open world survival horror game, Once Human, released a significant patch today. This update brings a slew of bug fixes, quality of life improvements, and several special events scheduled for August. Let’s delve into the details of these exciting changes.
Motorcycles Get a Speed Boost
One of the most noteworthy changes in the update is the increased speed of low-level motorcycles. This tweak should help players better navigate the expansive open world and manage their collections more efficiently. However, a bug has been introduced where motorcycles take damage when turning. Hopefully, the developers will address this issue soon in a subsequent patch.
Changes to Memetic Specializations
Memetic specializations, the perks available every five levels, have also been updated. Previously, players could only reset their build a couple of times, leading to potential dissatisfaction with their setup. The new patch introduces memetic specialization memory fragments, allowing players to respec more freely. This change helps prevent any regrets over suboptimal builds.
Enhancements to the Farming System
For players who prefer a more tranquil approach, there are updates to the farming system. Continuous farming has been introduced, enabling automatic replanting of mushrooms with the same configuration, reducing repetitive actions without sacrificing productivity.
Bug Fixes and Quality of Life Improvements
The patch addresses numerous bugs and enhances the user interface. Players can now interact with monoliths, cargo conquests, and other map icons more conveniently. Public crisis events will send automatic invitations for voice communication, making coordination with other players smoother.
Special Events in August
Finally, the patch rolls out a series of special events throughout August. Login bonus events on the 1st, 8th, and 15th offer exclusive cosmetics. The Wilderness Express event, starting August 15, rewards players for crashing into obstacles for bonus points. The Secure on Sight event, beginning August 22, provides rewards for defeating enemies and collecting specimen cards.
Once Human, along with its latest patch, is available now on Steam. Enjoy the new features and improvements in this free-to-play survival horror experience.
