$5 for a new endless map and $17 for a new scenario seems a bit steep.

Prequel. I guess it's more than just a scenario. Fabulously optimistic.

About the expansion:
The Last Autumn is a turning point in the Frostpunk universe. Revealing the restless events of Site 113 and its struggle to construct the generator before the freezing veil shrouds the Earth, this prequel expansion broadens the Frostpunk universe by introducing a new environment, new Books of Laws and unique technologies, and presents a range of new buildings — all of which let you shape society and the city in unconventional ways. Leading a group of engineers working on one of the world’s greatest technological marvels - a Generator - will require adapting your strategy to extraordinary situations. As the leader of Site 113, hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. For Queen and Country!
The Last Autumn - features:
- Experience a prequel story taking place before the freezing cataclysm
- Master a totally new Book of Laws allowing you to shape your society in previously unknown ways
- Construct new buildings
- Discover uncommon, steam-powered technologies
- Apply more advanced strategies to survive
- Delve into a beautiful new environment not yet covered by snow
I mean I'm pumped but um... why are the buildings huddled around a steam generator like it's -80 Celsius again? From what I'm seeing the game is set in a pleasant temperature.
This was one of the easier scenarios. I still can't do Refugees or Fall of Winterhome on survivor mode, but this one was pretty straightforward. Being able to use 15 people to get 80 raw food a day helps a lot. I finished on day 34, but I think I could get that down a bit.Yeah 17 jewro seems a bit too pricey for what you get. But both the new scenario and the new Endless map are a lot of fun. I've just finished the scenario on Survivor and it was a blast.
Did you manage Refugees and Fall of Winterhome on survivor?
I hadn't played in a while before The Last Autumn DLC came out, but I decided to go back and get the rest of the scenarios. I don't recall exactly how difficult Fall of Winterhome is, since I haven't played it lately. I remember a lot of micromanaging in the beginning though where I had to have it paused a while.Did you manage Refugees and Fall of Winterhome on survivor?
Finished all scenarios on Survivor. IIRC Winterhome was relatively painless, you just need a ton of Medical Posts in the first few days and then it's smooth sailing.
But Refugees was a fucking bitch. I think I didn't even figure out this one myself, after countless tries I just lost patience and watched a Youtube video.
I'm fine with the 4 deaths on Refugees. I thought about replaying for zero deaths, but I just don't know if it'd be fun again.As for deaths from starvation and overwork, it's possible to avoid both. In Refugees you have to send the scouts to the cannery absolutely ASAP and they make it back just in time. As for overwork, if you give your dudes working on a 24 shift an hour break nobody will die (let them work for a few hours, then pull them out for an hour or so, then put them back).
On The Edge - the third expansion from the game’s Season Pass - is set after the vicious Great Storm. The expedition with a special assignment is sent from New London. On The Edge not only opens a brand new chapter set in the Frostpunk universe but also further enriches the core experience by pitting players against new challenges and offering unique mechanics, both in the city and on the Frostland map.
A brand new, frozen board is set and the pieces are moving. What destiny lies ahead for your people? What will this mean for you, as their leader? Shape the future of humanity in a defining moment in Frostpunk's universe.
"The Edge symbolizes the cross between what has been the past and what’s new to come. Although the society of New London, the city believed to be the last one on Earth, has survived, it doesn’t mean the struggle is over. The people face new challenges that are catalysts to spark up divisions, new problems, and conflicts based on the fact, that people might have different points of view, different perspectives. Different outlook, so to speak. This is the Edge that you will face as the leader of the society that survived the great snowstorm of Frostpunk" - said Maciej Sułecki, the lead designer of Frostpunk: On the Edge.
On The Edge is coming to Steam this Summer and will feature:
- a brand new story scenario, set after the Great Storm
- an array of challenges to overcome on a new, desolate map
- unique mechanics to utilize on the Frostland view
Hear me, hear me, Citizens!
We survived the Great Storm but the path ahead is still marked with toil. A finding outside New London seems to be a blessing, but doesn’t every miracle come with a price? Lead the expedition to explore the uncharted parts of Frostland in Frostpunk: On The Edge.
Today, we are thrilled to share a brand-new cinematic trailer and a few screenshots from the expansion with you. On top of that, we're happy to announce that On the Edge, the third and final expansion for Frostpunk, is coming to PC on the 20th of August, 2020.
While Frostpunk’s previous expansion, The Last Autumn, served as a prequel, On The Edge picks up when the base game has ended. The storm has exposed an army warehouse from times before the evacuation. A scouting party is sent from New London to set up an outpost and a steady chain of supplies. It’s time to take another step on the laborious path of rebuilding hope and leading humankind to survival. But… the world of Frostpunk is still full of embroiled dualities: trust or skepticism, independence or domination, union or separation. The question is, what path will you take?
Near the outpost, there are no animals to hunt, so you’ll be depending on food sent from New London and their favors are not inexhaustible. They have their demands too. The good part is that the weather is not so severe here, on the edge. For now, the people have managed to survive without a Generator, but for how long? Will you be able to lead them for survival, far from the capital city of New London? Play On The Edge - the final chapter of the thrilling Frostpunk story - on the 20th of August!
Frostpunk: On The Edge awaits you with:
- A gripping survival story set after events of the original game
- Circumstances will force players to explore and adapt to the frozen wilderness
- A brand-new map with unique structures
- New methods to divide or unite your people
- New mechanics to build economic and diplomatic relations
Frostpunk: On The Edge will be available on August 20th on PC via Steam, GOG.com, and Humble Store - and it's actually gonna be cheaper than The Last Autumn expansion!
