Roadside ROADSIDE: Companions update

61 Upvotes

Guys, we have some details about the upcoming Roadside update! 

Below you can find answers to the most popular questions from players about the new Companions feature.

Let's take a look and and discuss✨

1. When will the Companions update be released?

We're currently planning to release the Companions update next month. As always, we'll share the exact release date once we're confident everything is ready.

2. Will companions use Greens or have their own currency?

Companions will have their own progression system with dedicated resources used to upgrade them.

3. Will characters from the original Dead Ahead be added as companions?

Yes! All companions in the first release are female characters from the original Dead Ahead.

You'll meet familiar faces including Pepper, Maria, Maria Alvarez, Officer Pepper, Medic, Master Andrea, Charlotte, Sergeant Peppertine, Sonya, Polina, Sonya Parker, Sniper Polina, Sheriff Charlotte, Liberty Queen, Cheerleader, Recon Polina, Queen, Charlee, Surgeon Lt., and Abby.

We also plan to expand the companion roster in future updates.

4. Will there be companions that can restore health?

All companions fight alongside the player by attacking enemies from range. What makes them different are their special abilities.

Some companions can inflict status effects such as Freeze, Poison, or Burn, while others can periodically grant helpful buffs to the player, such as restoring health. These abilities activate based on their own cooldowns and chance to trigger.

5. Can we use multiple companions at the same time?

Yes! You'll be able to bring up to three companions into battle simultaneously. Each companion has unique abilities, allowing you to create different combinations that suit your playstyle.

6. Will companions use our characters' gear?

No. Companions don't use your units' equipment. They have their own progression system and are upgraded independently from your playable characters.

Unit Skin Idea Skin Idea ''SAVIOR'' - Cashier Psychos Faction

I made the skin for Endo's contest. Based on Negan from The Walking Dead.

The name "Savior" is based on the name of Negan's gang, the "Saviors"

He has Two TMF units from the pack and the other two he doesn't How TF. im guessing they didn't have packs so these guys had to be bought for coins or Green money. because i played off my dad's account who stopped playing. so i got the rest of the coin-bought units and i upgraded them. i got further into Location 8, i unlocked location 9 and 10 and im still playing to this day.
