Hey everyone! New content has been added to the V24 beta branch.
We’d love to hear your thoughts as you play, so check out our dedicated beta feedback subforum and share your feedback on the tech changes and Trader Jobs. (Also the lore notes, if it's your first time checking them out!)
Thanks for testing with us.
How to access a Steam beta branch
Open Steam and go to your Library
Right-click The Infected
Click Properties…
Go to the Betas tab
Under Beta Participation, pick Beta Branch from the dropdown
Close the window - you're good to go!
Changes
Tech Cost
Tech progression has been reworked - some technologies now require multiple points to unlock.
Tech Pages
Tech pages now spawn randomly in POIs, both inside buildings and on props such as tables, barrels, etc.
Tech Point Acquisition
Recovered tech pages will no longer grant enough tech points to unlock every technology. Players will instead need to complete Jobs from the Trader (see more details about Jobs below).
Price Adjustment
The sale price of cement has been reduced from 0.80 to 0.25.
Additions
Trader Jobs
Introduced a new Trader system that rewards Tech Points and Coins.
Turning in quest items grants 3× more coins than selling them.
Inventory UI
Added a new button for quick access to the Journal.
Jobs Tab
Added a new Jobs section to the UI.
