Grounded, the multiplayer survival game by Obsidian Entertainment, recently received a full launch on Steam. The game is finally out of the early access state and players can now enjoy game version 1.0.1.
Patch 1.0.1 brings many welcome changes, along with several bugs and crash fixes. Don’t expect any new content though. It adjusted the audio for Crow and increased the durability of Slime Lantern. Playing multiplayer from the same household will now result in lower latencies. When the player is resting, creatures will randomly return to their homes.
- The PEEP a Creature action is now "E" on keyboard and "Right Bumper" on Controller. This to ensure the control for "Set Waypoint" is not the same key as PEEPing a creature while in PEEP mode.
- Weapon and gear stat bars now show smithing enhancements separately from the base values, in a distinct color.
- Added unique symbols to the various labs in the yard for easier identification.
- Custom Game Settings that cannot be changed mid-game have icons next to them to signify this status when starting a Custom Game.
- Arrows now show attack stat bars when selected in the inventory screen.
- Crow has adjusted audio.
- Exploding Strange Spores in the Haze now have an audio cue when getting ready to explode.
- Creatures randomly return to their home locations during player rest.
- Hot Deposit actions have audio now.
- Flowering dandelions drop pollen when chopped down.
- Slime Lantern durability has been increased.
- You will no longer get thirstier while in conversations. This will prevent dying while talking with BURG.L and REDACTED.
- You can no longer throw your equipped item while in building placement mode.
- Players playing Multiplayer from the same household should experience lower latencies.
