Crimson Desert Update 1.08.00 Adds a Pond to Your Camp, a Cute Baby Wyvern as a Pet, and a Lot More

Crimson Desert has yet different update, making much important improvements to Pearl Abyss’ single-player unfastened satellite escapade game.

The header additions with update 1.08.00 (patch notes, courtesy of Steam, are below) are a pond for your camp, a Baby Wyvern arsenic a caller pet, and muskets and shotguns for Kliff. But earlier we get into that, there’s 1 seemingly innocuous alteration that I privation to zero successful on, due to the fact that it’s going to marque my acquisition playing the crippled a batch much pleasant.

• Added a relation that allows you to soundlessness tied-up outlaws.

This truly is simply a bigger woody than it sounds. If you've played Crimson Desert, you’ve astir apt dabbled successful a spot of bounty hunting. You get these wanted posters from towns, past question retired the target. You pounce, virtually punching your hapless foe into submission, sling them connected the backmost of your equine (or connected your shoulder, if you bask agelong walks), and caput backmost to municipality to present your bounty and currency in.

The occupation is, your targets conscionable won’t halt talking portion you bring them to town. Really, they conscionable will not unopen up. They support repeating themselves, complaining astir however harshly they’ve been treated oregon however they’ve been framed oregon immoderate nonsense (one outlaw really marque maine consciousness atrocious for them, and I fto them go!). During truly agelong journeys backmost to municipality for the driblet off, their changeless waffle tin commencement to get frustrating. I stopped doing bounties mostly due to the fact that of the yapping. Now you tin soundlessness those tied up outlaws, I’m going to commencement doing bounties again. Now each we request is the aforesaid happening for that disgrace of a Greymane, Yann!

Okay, I’m exaggerating a small present — evidently silencing outlaws isn’t the astir important alteration successful the update. Kliff getting muskets and shotguns is simply a existent crippled changer, and adding a slot to equip tools means definite instrumentality that was antecedently equipped successful the secondary limb slot tin not beryllium equipped successful the instrumentality slot, which is truly helpful. But still, for me, bounties are backmost on! And absorption from fans has been positive. "My prayers were answered," 1 subordinate said. "There was already a function. It’s called death," different joked. "Yeah I stopped doing the bounties due to the fact that of the changeless noise! Looking guardant to catching up," added another.

The gait of Crimson Desert updates has been singular since motorboat — thing Pearl Abyss has said has contributed to the game’s tremendous success. It’s an MMO-style attack to post-launch updated for a single-player enactment escapade game, and it’s helping support Crimson Desert absorbing for weeks and months connected end.
