Everything on the 6.6.0 PTB

So for those who are unable to access the PTB (and are also unable to, or unwilling to, watch any videos/streams about the subject but still want to know what's happening), here's a rundown on everything new and snazzy on the PTB.

I've tried to make as many things gifs as possible for ease of access on mobile devices. Apologies for the one video I had to upload instead.

If the gifs break just let me know and I'll fix it whenever I get the chance to- taking a chance at a time saving measure here and hoping it doesn't bite me in the ass.

Oh, and if you wanted to read the patch notes, here they are:

Maps

First of all, I would like to encourage anyone who can to look at these maps (especially Red Forest) themselves, because the new assets are honestly drop-dead gorgeous and I cannot do the maps justice here.

Shelter Woods

Shelter woods has a purpose now! It is now home to The Skull Merchant's base.

The Big Tree:tm: has moved from the middle of the map to the top right of the map instead (assuming that the Shack is at the bottom):

This is to make space for the new building.

Here's me having a mooch about (I tried making it a gif, it was a tad too large):

Red Forest | Temple of Purgation

Unfortuantely, the map thumbnails for Temple of Purgation and Mother's Dwelling seem to be bugged right now.

First of all, we have a snazzy new shack:

Now, the outside of the Temple:

And as for the inside:

What about the basement (+1 more of inside for good luck)?

And what about those random structures dotted around?

Red Forest | Mother's Dwelling

Now for the first main feature on Mother's Dwelling: The Cottage!

As for the other feature of note on the map:

Other noteable changes

Main Menu

Just like with every new chapter, we've gotten another main menu. This time it features The Skull Merchant's base and various related appliances.

Haddie Kaur

Haddie got her appearance updated, including the makeup on her uncommon skins. Here's what she looks like now:

And yes, her uncommon headpieces now have actual make-up changes too.

Perks

Eruption, as I'm sure you've all seen, has been changed:

So has Any Means Necesasry:

Unfortunately, the Circle of Healing deletion that was mentioned in the German developer update hasn't come to fruition in this update, so we can assume it's been postponed to next Mid-Chapter (when they promised another perk switchup) or canned entirely (which would be a shame).

Bots

You can now give bots perks, items, add-ons, offerings, etc, and even choose who each bot is! Here's what the UI for that looks like:

That concludes my first longform post since I summarised the Behaviour Beyond stream back in November 2022 (in preparation for Project W). Hope at least someone can get some use out of this.
