It’s been quite awhile since we have heard anything about Survarium. Substantial information has been infrequent enough that some started to wonder if the project was still alive. Well it turns out that things are ticking along just fine over at Vostok Games. The online FPS from the makers of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. has officially gone in to its European open beta.
The S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games have greatly influenced the Eastern European games that came later. In this, the second of a two-part miniseries exploring these influences, we investigate the gameplay mechanics that make "Stalkerlikes" what they are.
Vostok Games has released some new screenshots, showcasing the new graphics renderer and lighting system that are coming soon to Survarium. Survarium is powered by the new proprietary Vostok Engine and focuses on the aftermath of a massive ecological catastrophe on Earth, the reasons behind which are only vaguely known.
Vostok Games has released a brand new update for its free-to-play online first-person shooter, Survarium. Patch 0.52 introduces a new graphics renderer, minimizes input lag without decreasing frames per second count, improves client performance when playing with a ping above 50ms and enables vertical synchronization in the game lobby.
