H1Z1 Gets Big Damn Patch

by Ben Reeves on Apr 02, 2015 at 01:35 PM

We’re not being hyperbolic, the update is actually called the Big Damn Patch, and it’s bringing H1Z1 players a slew of bug fixes and new features.

The H1Z1 update includes a new male character model that was made specifically for H1Z1's upcoming wearable system, which allows players to customization their appearance more fully. Additionally, the patch also allows players to explore the revamped Dam area, which has all-new interiors full of scavengeable goodies.

Additional new content in the update includes:

  • R380 Pistol -  a small pocket pistol available in .380 caliber that boasts a high fire rate but minimal stopping power
  • Workbenches - used to create specific recipes as well as to convert ammo into other types of ammo, workbenches can be found in the world or crafted and placed
  • Updated Pickup Truck Interior - more details and improvements have been made to the interior of the pickup truck
  • Revised Crude Map - grid locations have been added to help friends find each other more quickly and easily
  • Continued anti-cheat and bug fixing efforts, and more!

 

Our Take
H1Z1 has proved popular – the title has sold over 1 million copies on Steam – so I'm guessing that many players will be happy to see the new improvements.
