Doesn't steam update at 18:00 UK time?

I'll be giving this a go, looks worth a punt for 15$!

Some Q&A you might have missed here:

http://steamcommunity.com/app/242760/discussions/0/522728269274822084/

3 of my favourites:

10. Can you knock mutants unconscious, then do things like drag them and caging them etc?

You can currently knock enemies out, chop them up and then make effigies out of their body parts. We don’t have a system for caging them yet, but it could be a really interesting system!

26. I was doubtful of this one, but a few people asked if you could eat the mutants as well :/

No, we're drawing the line at dismembering bodies, and building statues out of the parts and setting it on fire.

8. Can you give a rough estimate on how large the island/or game space will be?

We get asked this all the time! The truth is we’ve never measured it, however we feel the size suits the game and is a big enough world to get lost in whilst still constantly finding interesting items, locations and vistas.

Over the course of the alpha we expect new areas to be added or opened up, especially with our ever descending cave systems.

Has the 'no mutant' noob mode been confirmed? I would love to just sandbox around a gorgeous location without having to prepare for attacking mobs.

Will there be a peaceful mode?

Yes. You will be able to play the game as a more traditional survival/exploration simulator, with the horror elements effectively disabled.

Am I right in assuming that today's release is just an early access release?

kablooey · 30 May 2014 at 17:19

Any good? I need something to keep me occupied for a few hours now Arena Commander has been postponed...

ADT · 30 May 2014 at 17:23

Looks interesting, will certainly keep an eye on it. I hope it turns out better than DayZ

agnes · 30 May 2014 at 17:24

I've got poker at 8pm... Should I risk it and play this? lol

It doesn't seem to save. if you exit the game and restart then you're back on the plane.

1st night was scary

Atlas23 · 30 May 2014 at 17:41

Graphics are so good for an alpha! Water looks amazing. So much to craft etc already

and best of all it gives you a countdown to the next alpha release
