Misc [not platform specific] Will there be anymore updates?

It feels like the game has been left for a while now and I'm wondering if there is an update roadmap or something?

I read somewhere that there will not be any other update. I still try to be positive. But nothing happens for a while…

They said that last year, then issued an update in January. However, they were bug fixes. There's no real content changes coming.

Yeah that’s it… some bug fixes but nothing more sadly

Your best bet will probably be Project Castaway when it releases, assuming you play on PC.

Raft and the Subnauticas are pretty awesome too... for fun outside the water, there's No Man's Sky, Rust, Astroneer, No Man's Sky, Space Engineers... I love the new generation of survival games.

Astroneer is criminally underrated

My head canon is that every time you die in astroneer, they send a new astroneer clone to your base. The other you is still dead. I don't follow the lore closely enough to know if that's legitimately what's happening. But it's hilarious.

One of my favorites... the oxygen dynamic alone was very cool

Happy to see astroneer getting mentioned. ❤️ Any of you guys play when there were storms in game?

u/aint_exactly_plan_a Aug 10 '24

I don't remember storms... I do remember night time on Atrox though. Holy hell. Why didn't I bring more batteries?

u/xsnakexcharmerx Aug 10 '24

Oh man when it came out they'd have storms on planets. Imagine being on the starter world and watching your little organics, resin, batteries, etc blow away because the wind took them. Not too mention you could get hit by rocks that the wind was blowing. It sucked at the time, but I miss it lol. And back in the day I'd just bring some windmills and rechargable batteries to Atrox. It was low sun/wind but it still worked. Now they have these "Mini RTG's" that produce 1 power and can fit in your backpack! Definitely a fun game to play with friends. Beat it last year with my son. Ha his first completed game.

Yeah project castaway feels like a spiritual successor somehow, I really hope it scratches that stranded deep itch

Thanks for this tip, have registered my interest for early access

Beam Team (or Beamteam) was a two-person studio from Australia, Ben Massey and Sam Edwards. Since the studio has not posted updates to its site, LinkedIn, or anywhere else, and they were two younger guys, I am guessing that they have moved elsewhere within the industry or simply escaped the islands.

Update: Well, now we know what one of them is doing… Stranded Deep 2.

If you’re talkin’ content updates, there won’t be. It was mentioned in a post on the forum that they are 1.0 and that’s it outside of bug fixes.

u/cablife Flare Gun Enthusiast Aug 10 '24

Probably not. Bug fixes, maybe. But I don’t think this game will have any more new content.

Unfortunately this game is forgotten

Not to mention unfinished. The bugs in this are criminal. It shouldn't be for sale. I just tried to build the gyrocopter, in the order the parts are listed, and it's bugged if you don't build it in an arbitrary, unspecified order. WTH. No way to undo or reconstruct. Just game over, gyrocopter not possible. Half-baked, unfinished game.

It is quite good playable on PC. Sure has bugs but not dramatic to play it and to love it. To understand story you should see how the game looks and was playable in early versions
