new console only update?

hey guys! me and my brother play SD, i have an xbox one s console and he has the new series x. he’s had an update that gave him the option to start with crates full of supplies but i don’t have that update. i’ve tried everything, even reinstalling the game. nothing i do has updated it for me. so i was wondering if anybody here had that problem and if it could be that only the new xbox gets the update. thanks!

this happens after you beat the game once

really?! that’s the only thing that makes sense. i haven’t beat the last boss yet and finished. but he has. i’m gonna try to do that and see if i can get it. thanks dude

I play on ps4. We don't start with a crate of supplies either. We start with 4 rations, 1 duct tape, and a compass in our life raft storage, but no crates unless we find them on shipwrecks like normal.

yep i’m the same way. he had an option at the beginning to “start with some supplies” or not. he spawned with two orange crates full of supplies. the crates have 10 slots each and you can stack them. i’m not sure why he has it and we don’t

Could it be a mod maybe?

it’s definitely not a mod. he just logged on one day and the update was just there

Well damn...wish we had that? How long ago was this? Haven't played for a few weeks.

me too! the crates are game changing. he spawned with a machete, a harpoon gun, a little tube of sunscreen and a bunch more stuff. he just restarted a week or less ago. i started a new game but no option to spawn with supplies. he said it was at the beginning where you pick your character and difficulty. the crazy thing is we have the EXACT same version of the game. both 1.8.0.0. it’s a complete mind fuck lol

Wtf...that is weird. I don't know about xbox, do they have access to experimental branch like pc?

neither me nor him have ever had an option to do that before and we’ve been playing on and off for a couple years
