VersionWhat we know
Planned
  • Plan to make location-based challenges easier to complete; may not land before Alpha 4 content lock.
Dev build
  • Seven challenges must be done to unlock the next tier.
  • Next-tier challenges can be progressed before levelling up; the tier jump is a button press once seven are complete.
  • Company challenges are shared; a teammate completing an objective counts for the whole company.
  • Always reset; challenges are split into Company Goals, Player Challenges and Player Achievements.
  • The ranch rises from Tier 1 to Tier 4 by completing challenges.
  • Ranch progression is driven by a list of challenges split by tier; the developers were midway through Tier 3.
  • Opened with J; company challenges shared by all members, whoever completes them.
  • Example challenges: place a makeshift workbench, purchase a mule, obtain springs.
  • Completing every challenge gives an extra 100 percent completion reward.
  • Looting camp supplies counts toward the Tier 2 challenges.
  • Character level comes from completing challenges, not XP; completing a level's tasks unlocks the next.
  • Unlocks better clothes, weapons, ammunition, fishing rods and ranch blueprints.
Alpha 5
  • Company challenges got a summary view with all, almost completed and completed filters.
  • Progression has four tiers, deliberately fast and shallow because the game resets monthly.
  • Advancing a tier needs about seven of ten challenges so players can pick a play style; full completion gives an extra reward.
  • Almost all challenge requirements were changed; mounted challenges were removed since horse challenges cover them.
  • Tier 2 objectives include placing a bed and discovering other outposts.
Alpha 4
  • Overhauled in Alpha 4; goals are shared by everyone in your company.
  • Opened with J by default.
  • New challenge panel is a work in progress and is planned for Alpha 4; opens with comma.
March alpha
  • In Alpha 1 the Challenge system, opened with J, gave extra progression guidance that many players missed.
  • Opened with J; previously called the journal. Has a tab per tier with challenges to complete.
