About This Game You play a pre-historic caveman, your ultimate objective... to survive! Explore a massive seamless open world, forage for food, hunt animals, and use the complex, realistic crafting system to build new, better and stronger items. Work together with other players to form a community, form a village, and to cooperate and grow as a group! Vantage is a game I have been working on for many years now, and it is the game I have always wanted to play. Since it didn't exist, I decided to create it! So I hope you enjoy playing it as much as I enjoy creating it!Some examples of what you can do in the game:- Craft a large number of objects to help you survive. Everything from sharp stones, to campfires so you don't freeze at night, to primitive huts to live in!- Find wild plants, take their seeds and plant crops to become more self-sustaining.- Create some clothes to keep yourself warm and well protected by skinning dead animals and tanning the hides by going through a realistic primitive leather working process.- And much, much more!Realistic and complex crafting system - Vantage has a in-depth, well researched crafting system using the actual items you need to craft items in the real world. For example, if you wish to build a fire using a hand drill, you need to find the right stick to use as a spindle, create a piece of hearth wood, and forage for some tinder. Then if you are skillful enough, you can make your fire!Hardcore survival / player customization - Make sure you forage for that food or grow some crops, for when you die, your character is gone! But don't despair, when your characters die they earn "player points" you can use to re-customize you next character by buying starting items and boosting your starting skills so you can try anew!Skill-based character progression with many professions - You can try to specialize in one of the many professions, or try to master them all! Some examples are hunting, fishing, leatherworking and farming. You can also become a master bone, wood, or stone maker to help other people's professions along. Work together with other players to make items faster and stronger.Interact with every item in the world - No more playing a game where trees and rocks are just fancy artwork! You can harvest wood from every tree, and pick up every rock you see!Custom game engine creating massive seamless randomly generated worlds - The game uses a custom 3D game engine I created called VantEdit. It generates and renders massively sized worlds of any size I choose, and you get to explore them. Walk in a single direction and you will circumnavigate the globe with no loading screens.The game's current development state:What is completed (of course these will be constantly improved and updated):- The Game's engine:( rendering/ seamless world mechanics etc ). I have refined the engine to be a great vessel in which to create the game. I have spent years on it and helps to give the game the feel it needed to have.- Game Play Mechanics: The game play system is fully implemented as intended, has been tested and is fully playable. Again this only means that the core elements have been completed and I am of course working on improving all aspects of the game. This includes UI framework, Crafting, Skills and Item design, etc...- Networking conversion: This took many years, but I am proud to say that the online version of the game is fully stable. The game now also supports offline servers (for playing single-player), and player hosted dedicated servers that can be publicly displayed to all players around the world.- The Game's Editor tools: Though this is not currently available to players yet, the game's editor is designed to add in new crafts, items and skills easily into the game, as I develop the game I add in new skills, new items, and new crafts into the game. Even though I call this a primitive survival game, I plan to continue to add new content to the game constantly! What does this mean? Well at a certain point I will add in archery, more complex farming mechanics, more building types etc... What will be added in the near future:- PvP: Once the game has been sufficiently tested, I will be finishing the PvP aspect of the game.- More server hosting options: Players who wish to host servers will be able to customize their servers to more specific needs and preferences (making hardcore-only servers, etc...)- Access to VantEdit world editor: Players will be able to host servers with their own procedural generated worlds. They will have the ability to create nearly any size world with the ability to change temperatures, land and continent formations, and much more. This functionality will be later in development, most likely after the full launch.What can be improved:- Artwork: Many of the graphics you see in game are my own "programmer art", simple yet useful art I create in a short amount of time. There are works of art done by professionals in the industry as well however. One goal of hopefully getting the game into Early Access is to hire back some of these artists to get the artwork more professional.- Animation system and attachments: Upgrading the animation system to have it so you can customize you character's physical attributes, actually see objects like shoes and hats being worn on a character etc. As well as have more player models and customization.Future Plans for the GameThe content I can continue to add will never stop! I will run out of primitive technologies and keep moving forward, one item, craft, or skill at a time. So how far can I go? Will the game's technology get to the Roman Era? Medieval? Industrial Era? Modern Era? The game is a constantly evolving, ever changing universe that you exist in. It just all depends on people like you who I hope like, support, and enjoy the idea behind this game. 7aa9394dea Title: Vantage: Primitive Survival GameGenre: Indie, Simulation, Early AccessDeveloper:Crystal DragonPublisher:Crystal DragonRelease Date: 22 May, 2018 Vantage: Primitive Survival Game Steam Keygen Free Download vantage primitive survival game igg. vantage primitive survival game download. vantage primitive survival game скачать. vantage primitive survival game. vantage primitive survival game скачать. vantage primitive survival game wiki. vantage primitive survival game igg. vantage primitive survival game let's play. vantage primitive survival game gameplay. vantage primitive survival game download. vantage primitive survival game let's play. vantage primitive survival game wiki. vantage primitive survival game gameplay. vantage primitive survival game Kenshi is a great example of how a game, even if stuck in development for many years, can be an amazing game that delivers on its premise AND delivers on the "fun" factor of a game.Vantage: Primitive Survival, on the other hand... is not. It simply was not fun for me to play it despite enjoying the premise that it is built on, it felt tedious and the interaction controls with items as well as the grind required made me think of Wurm Unlimited\/Online, which sadly in this case is not a compliment. The way the gameplay has been designed and engineered just does not create fun for me, I would have far more fun booting up Stranded 2 than playing this game.So no... I do not recommend it, and I don't care that it's Early Access either. You can't bug fix a bad game flow design, but I genuinely wish you the best of luck and give my best hopes that you make it through Early Access and release an amazing product, Crystal Dragon.EDIT: I would like to emphasize quickly that, my comparison of this game to Kenshi is not meant to be 1:1... I am only contrasting the fact that both have been in development for a long time, and I am not measuring mechanics and genre between the two because that would be silly, both have different goals. It is only to emphasize the point of, "One delivers on a fun game flow and gameplay design, and one does not".. best game ever...if the year was 2003. What a waste of time and gaming effort. Starting tools do not last through the first craft so you are stuck with no tools and no item and no way to make a new tool. try to build a fire with your starting items and your item (most likely the stick) will wear out before you get a fire so you have to make a new one which uses up your sharpened stone knife, Funny how a small wooden rod just destroys a piece of stone. s there you are you finally get a fire built but you had to use up your sharpened stone and alas there is no way on this planet to get another, or even find a piece of broken rock with a sharp edge. There is an elusive, mysterious and magical item in the game called a billet that is needed to make any sharpened stone or bone tool, problem is you cannot find one. it is probably crafted in a forge of some type so forget about crafting one folks. Would figure the designer would have at least made it possible to keep playing but after over an hour of looking for one I gave up. Tried several different combinations of charachter equipment and abilities and all ended up at the same result, no tools to do anything with and character left with no tools to scavange for food and water, what fun!!!!. Overall great game and great graphics for a indie but one thing the dev. needs to add is thrird person camera.. This may have taken the dev 10 years to get to this stage but I do not intend spending 10 years trying to progress in this game. It is such a grind, 35 hours in and I can still only carry 1 item in each hand, Someone says they like grinding, this is definitely the game for them.. not playable, should not have been released yet. Early Access Review.This game reminds me of Xsyon. The Grind is REAL. You Will Grind Constantly to level crafts very slowly.I like that kind of game.If you don't like spending hundreds of hours in a game to acomplish things through major grinds then stay away.I DO like that kind of boring sht so I reccommend this game..

I've played 15 hours at the time of writing, and have done quite a lot of the game's content in its current state. For the time being I'll lay it down, awaiting further content to re-roll a character. I was most impressed by the way every object in the map is selectable, and most of them being interactable in some way. With the developer's engine, there's framework for a very deep game, even though it's not very broad yet.We'll have to wait and see how it develops, but I'd keep my eye on this one! I can say without a doubt that this game has massive potential, and it's clear this has been a labor of love. The developer seems to respond to users queries rather quickly, and is eager to start focusing on some more content after a batch of optimalisation. While I don't recommend it yet for users looking for an experience which is already complete, I definitely recommend this for people who want to support the developer and see the project grow. It's bound to be a magical experience. Update EA 1.2.3 is Live! Terrain Optimizations Complete!: This update includes the terrain optimizations and other bug fixes and QoL improvements, you can see the patch notes here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/342910/discussions/0/1652169858535956404/I have finally completed the terrain optimizations! Terrain is no longer loaded from client files, and is streamed from the server directly into client memory. You should hopefully experience a performance boost when loading into the game, and walking around in the world! This took a little longer than I expected as I was dealing with game engine rendering as well. ( Gotta be careful with that code :) )With this update complete, my next task is going to be working on "breaking down" item mechanics. For example breaking down larger rocks into smaller rocks, larger hides into smaller hides, etc.... Vantage Early Access Update 1.0.8 is Live!: This updates is a whole bunch of fixes and optimizations, including smarter AI for animals! Watch out! They know when they're cornered now :)Patch notes:https://steamcommunity.com/app/342910/discussions/0/1698300679778067492/. Vantage Early Access Update 1.1.4 is Live!: This update hopefully solves several issues with server stability and game performance. And fixes a couple of inventory issues. You can look at the patch notes for more info here:https://steamcommunity.com/app/342910/discussions/0/1698300679778067492/I also want to let you know that the artists have begun working on the "Hearth and Home" assets! I will give you some sneak previews of the new content as soon as I can!Also, I am finally getting a new computer soon. With this I will hopefully be able to record some good game play videos and tutorials, as well as hopefully do some live streams of the game! I am looking forward to this!. Vantage Early Access Update 1.1.2 is Live!: This update brings many quality of life enhancements including customization key controls, easier to use inventory management operations, some server framework enhancements, and also items fall off trees!With these new server framework updates I will be able to make even more versatile items that change over time which will not affect server performance in any major way. This also improves the server performance as well.I will now be beginning research and development on the next content update soon. What is the new content? Well, I'll let you know a little later ;) https://steamcommunity.com/app/342910/discussions/0/1698300679778067492/. Coming Soon! "Traps and Critters!": I can finally announce that I am working on a series of content which I am calling "Traps and Critters"! This is a series of content that allow you to build various traps to lure animals into their death!Are you tired of chasing after animals? Want to have them just come to you instead? Well traps are the answer!You will be able to set traps of various types and hope that a unsuspecting animals will take the bait. The more hunting skill you have, the more complex traps you can make to kill larger prey! This update will also include some small critters, some cute rats and squirrels, and some wily foxes!I am currently working on another round of bug fixes and some other content for the next update. But I will begin work on this after that.So stay tuned!. Update on Traps and Critters!: Hello, I thought I would just let you know that the next update is coming along very well! I hope to have the content ready in a week or two.Even though this seems like I am only adding a few traps and animals into the game, I want to also say that along with this content I am implementing some more in-depth game play mechanics relating to crafting and inventory/items. This next push of content will also be using these new mechanics.And of course, that main reason for all of this work is to make future content even more exciting as well!Stay Tuned!. Vantage Patch Early Access 1.0.0 is Live!: I have uploaded the "hopefully" final launch version of Vantage for tomorrow! I have had no issues with testing on my end. I will be testing it through out the next 24 hours of course, and after launch I will be planning to be awake for as long as I can and will be available to talk in the forums, and hopefully jump into some people's servers and say hi!The time is near!. The Lands are Being Tamed!: The picture is from player Kastuk, you can see more if his pictures creating a small settlement here:https://steamcommunity.com/app/342910/discussions/0/1696048245846758625/So far the launch is a big success! No issues with stability or server performance. And I will start to work on fixing a few small bugs that appeared next week. I will post a more in-depth announcement soon!
