Thanks again for your sustained report and feedback!

This hot update fixes the following gameplay/achievements issues. Many thanks for your awesome feedback and reporting : )

• Fix the Fae fruits vanishing from backpack
  
  
• In a specific context, if was not possible to give the Gorgor tooth to Martigar (this bug was in the original game)
  
  
• In Motazaar, the dialogs related to the "collapsed mines" were not properly raised (was inadvertely removed during a code refactoring)
  
  
• "Hypocondriac!" achievement was triggering at 20 instead of 100
  
  
• The achievements counter related to the weapon merchants have been resized from 10 to 9 (actually there's one weapon merchant per district). The 10th weapon merchant is a just a 1999's myth! ;)

More info on version 1.1.6 introducing achievements

Release notes history

Dear Adelphians,

We are pleased to announce that the "so waited" achievements for Outcast 1.1 are now available. You just need to get the last update (version 1.1.6 or higher) to be able to start unlocking them :). This version also includes further optimisations improvements and few fixes (see release notes below).


The game comes with over 150 achievements. The achievements that are related to the original game's quest have been hidden to avoid spoiling too much about the plot of the game (for new players). They appear as squared icons with a color code associated to the different regions of Adelpha. The other achievements, whic unrelated to the story, are generally visible and identified by a green rounded icon.



You have the ability to reset the achievements stored on the Steam server from the main menu of the game. It might be helpful if you want to restart from scratch.


Most achievements actually reflect the completion of the current loaded game until they are fully unlocked (ex: percent of completion of the main quests and side quests). It can be also helpful to compare the different completion when reloading previous savegames.



From the launcher, you can reduce the rate of notification of progress if you think you get too much notified. It can also be removed completly, in this case you will be notified only when a given achievement is completed.


The game attempt by default to recover the quest's achievements already completed in a previous savegame. However, for some reasons, there are very few achievements which cannot be recovered "a posteriori" from previous savegame which could lead with some frustration. Thus, we highly suggest to start from a new game instead of relying of an old savegames (and btw it will be more rewarding than just seeing poping the achievements while reloading an anterior savegame ^^)


The achievements are enabled by default, but you of course can disable them completly from the launcher tab settings->Steam.




- stats and achievement support
- further optimisation on the brain manager
- improve consistency of the the quest manager
- fix EVD XRay mode which was broken in version 1.1.5
- fix potential crash while interacting with the twon-ha
- fix potential rendering crashes
- fix issue while reloading a savegame saved with another language selected
- fix marshes boat light platform issue

We hope you'll enjoy this new update and we thanks you all for the tremendous feedback you're giving us day to day.

May the Yods be happy!

Dear Adelphians,

Unfortunately we couldn't deliver the achievements for this weekend due to unexpected events and a massive workload. We still need few days to ensure that everything is working as expected.

We're sorry for the delay but due to the nature of the game and the increasing number of achievements, it requires a lot of time to test and to check everything.

Thanks for your comprehension and never believe me again the next time I'll give you a precise date :)

Yann

Dear Adelphians,

For those who are waiting for the achievements, we are pleased to confirm that they will be available by the end of next week (28th March). We still need few days to finalize, review and validate all of them.

Thanks for your patience and your support!
