Description:
Sons of the Forest 1.0 is here, and those wanting to experience all new 
features are being advised to start a new save.

FULL STORY
======================================================================

 Sons of the Forest 1.0 is here, and its launched with a plethora of new 
features and improvements. However, while the full release is compatible with 
early-access saves, developer Endnight Games has recommended that some may 
want to start fresh for the full new experience. 

Endnight Games open-world survival game has been available to play in early 
access for a whole year now, so the thought of potentially restarting 
precious saves may be daunting to some. With that said, theres absolutely 
nothing stopping players from continuing as they were, if they wish. 

If you have an older save game it will still work, but we recommend starting 
a fresh save if you want to experience the story and all the new features 
fully, Endnight Games wrote in the 1.0 patch notes. 

So, what are those new features in question? Perhaps most notably, a creative 
mode has been added, complete with an alternative creative inventory, if you 
want to have a slightly more chilled out time. If youre planning on braving 
the usual survival experience, then youll have to watch out for the new 
sickness system, which can make your character ill if you eat bad food or 
drink dirty water (you can cure yourself with meds and clean water). 

For those playing with friends, proximity chat has been added for a new way 
to communicate, and voice filters will be applied when youre exploring 
underwater and in caves, which is a really neat detail. 

Story wise, theres a brand-new choice-based ending to aim for, as well as 
five new cutscenes and fresh voice acting in certain scenes. Theres plenty of 
new details to spot while exploring, too, including extra paths, mini caves, 
and partially dug tunnels. A whole new cave can be unlocked after the end 
game sequence, too. 

This barely scratches the surface of everything new thats been included in 
the 1.0 launch - if you want to look at the enormous list of changes, be sure 
to check out the full patch notes . You might want to grab yourself a cup of 
tea first though, because youll be there a while.
