It's an intense experience that differs substantially from the base game as your colonists fight off paranoia, invisible monsters, brain parasites, and more. It culminates in a new endgame centered on a monolith that makes the world go insane. However, now there's a way to dial that back and play a more "normal" RimWorld campaign with some of the new elements and events woven into the story. Read the rest of the story... RELATED LINKS: Rimworld Anomaly is dialing back on the horror in new update The best god games on PC 2024 Beloved colony sim Rimworld just got a whole lot scarier New ambient horror setting and tribal Anomaly supportMay 3, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHi everyone! We're here today with a new feature update to Anomaly. Today's update adds a new way to play with all Anomaly content threaded into the entire game, instead of being linked strictly to the monolith quest. This resembles more how other expansions all interact together continuously over the course of a long game. No need for Anomaly to take over an entire playthrough! We’ve also added some new economic pathways to make it more feasible to progress through Anomaly content as a low-tech tribal colony. Take a look: Ambient horror mode Now, when you start the game, you can select from three ways to integrate Anomaly into your game: Standard with monolith: The original Anomaly experience. Anomaly threats are linked directly to the monolith. Ambient horror: In this new mode, the monolith does not appear. Instead, Anomaly threats are threaded into the rest of the game. All Anomaly threats can occur, even the most dangerous ones. Anomaly threats are relatively uncommon compared to normal raids by default, but this can be adjusted before and during the game. This is a good mode if you want to enrich your story without Anomaly becoming the focus. (Note that since there is no monolith in this mode, the monolith endgame won’t occur.) Disabled: Anomaly threats do not occur, and there’s no monolith. Anomaly tools like security doors, incinerators, hellcat rifles, turret packs, and serums are still in the game. Study efficiency setting: We added a "study efficiency" slider to the difficulty settings. Higher settings give more research points each time you study an entity. By default, study efficiency is better at lower difficulties, so even when there are fewer entities to capture, you can still make steady progress. As always, you can customize study efficiency how you like, including changing it during a run. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/a7250e5fdb63a7521cf256b69798f945f7486380.jpg Better support for tribal playthroughs In previous versions, it was hard to progress through Anomaly content as a tribal. We’ve added new economic pathways to use for players who want to stay low-tech: {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/b60d654dabae53138492ce4e143cad16421f104a.png Bioferrite extraction research project. We've added a new research project that allows doctors to extract bioferrite directly from captured entities without a 'bioferrite harvester'. This is less efficient, but doesn't require electricity. Bioferrite can be obtained from harbinger trees. Chopping down harbinger trees will give twisted flesh and bioferrite, adding a new way to obtain bioferrite without capturing entities. Updated research tree to not require electricity. We've rearranged parts of the Anomaly research tree to allow researching more projects without electricity. Some Anomaly items can be made at crafting spots. The following items can now be made at a crafting spot, as well as the bioferrite shaper: Ceremonial hood, nerve spiker, ritual mask, ghoul plating, ghoul barbs.

Lead developer Tynan Sylvester of Ludeon Studios says the team is "loving your Anomaly stories," but has tweaked the balance slightly in a new update aimed at helping the horror side blend more seamlessly into the core game, with options to tweak your preferences for how much you'd like to see.

RELATED LINKS: The best god games on PC 2024 Beloved colony sim Rimworld just got a whole lot scarier The best Rimworld mods 2024 Integrating Anomaly more with the rest of the gameApr 18, 2024 - Community AnnouncementsHi everyone - Ty here. We’re loving your Anomaly stories! Please keep it up with the duplicated babies, shambler babies, and gray labyrinth baby drama. This expansion explores new ground creatively for RimWorld and it’s been incredibly gratifying to see people having new kinds of stories in the game. Releases like this bring massive amounts of feedback, which is always incredibly valuable for us to understand how the game is playing and what people want. This time around, many players have said they’d like to be able to mix Anomaly content more into the rest of the game so it feels like less of a self-contained experience, and more like something that integrates into a normal playthrough. Originally, we had Anomaly throw a ton of content at you guys because we wanted to be sure people would experience all the new stuff and see how much was really there. We may have pushed a bit too far there - Anomaly has tons of content and exposing it all too fast was saturating the experience. This is great for a certain type of intense, focused playthrough, but the game should also support other playstyles. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/7be2bcbcaf6ba8b388b3ee363e628846a045ad68.png Today’s update addresses that with some key changes and new features: Anomaly content is less dominant by default while the monolith is active. You’ll see more incidents from the base game and other expansions now. You can customize how Anomaly-focused you want your playthrough to be. We added sliders to the game settings that let you choose how much you want Anomaly horror events to dominate the game. If you want it to be pure horror when the monolith is active, you can. If you want the horror to be a light sprinkle on top of the rest of your RimWorld, you can do that. You can alter these settings any time in the options menu by opening the storyteller settings (and this is possible on games started in previous versions). You don’t need to see every entity on every playthrough. We reduced the number of entities you must interact with before advancing the monolith. You still can wait to see every entity, but it’s your choice now. This spreads the experience further over more playthroughs, if you choose. We've updated the Anomaly scenario to start with three researchers and a ghoul (up from two). This gets you into the meat of the game quicker when using this scenario. Note: If you'd like to go back to the pre-update Anomaly incident rates, just change your "Anomaly threats (active)" to 45% (up from the new default 30%). To get to this setting, go to Menu/Options/Gameplay/Storyteller Settings and it's under Custom/Anomaly. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/462cce4639f7018c7fc3ca05796d5872b6807153.png We’re making other ongoing minor changes as well - see the full changelog below for details.

(I bet they can pick up 5G too.) You'll usually first see these when one attacks your colony without warning, brandishing its bioferrite spikes. Ghouls are ravenously aggressive and never feel pain, so hit them hard from a distance. If you’re luckier, one might crashland a transport pod nearby - having presumably left devastation wherever it came from. The ghoul will start in shock, but will soon recover and attack anyone it sees. It can be captured to a holding platform for further study. Capture it, or kill it, before it wakes. This being RimWorld, you can create your own ghouls using your harvested bioferrite and a surgical procedure. Be warned, this is irreversible. For those you dislike, it’d be kinder to mindwipe or lobotomize them. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/464027e98acbdaf7c3cab7dbbbfb02e27a760f84.jpg If the hideous surgical procedure is a success, this once-human becomes a strong, relentless melee combatant, useful for fighting tougher enemies and tanking in larger-scale battles. Ghouls only fight - they cannot work. And if they are killed, you can revive them with an injection of a ghoul resurrection serum! THE GHOUL IN YOUR CROWN Ghouls cannot carry equipment - they’re too far gone for that. However, given the unnatural resilience of their half-dead bodies, ghouls can be augmented with a variety of dreadful implants. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/c6d8ce6bd8a2c388d1a2576e3a186b4d4e9abcbc.png Implants are the height of mostly-dead fashion. They can be protective, like bioferrite armor plating or a metalblood heart, both of which improve the ghoul’s survivability at the cost of speed. Aggressive implants include a corrosive heart that enables it to spray acid, an adrenal heart that lets it move and attack impossibly quickly, and barbed bioferrite spikes which improve its melee damage while slowing it.

It’s no more than a beautiful gift sent by a good friend. This hand-sized cube shines like gold, but is impossible to scratch. As everyone knows, cubes make perfect companions. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/dc09031da09c5a01e182ef6428bb264f1348c607.png It’s always invitingly warm to the touch, like a trusted pet or a hug from a good friend. If you look closely, you’ll see more than gold in the delightful way light plays across its surface. If you love the cube like we do, why not make a sculpture of the cube? Don’t listen to the others who say that we’re unhealthily captivated by the cube. Ignore those who claim that our curiosity progressed to fascination and into obsession. That we’re psychically compelled to interact with it, and we feel sick if we can’t. They’re just jealous of our perfect, wonderful cube. THE NOCIOSPHERE The nociosphere is very much not as lovable as the cube. Even being near it hurts. It’s made of dark metal, covered with curved and jagged grooves, and emanates sensations of pain. More worryingly, when it appears, the sphere appears to be increasing in activity. It’s not clear what will happen when this peaks but, if you capture it, you can decrease its activity by suppressing it. Then, you can study it. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/25160263/02aff1c8e7955b455d488f9dcb1ae63ea56edeb2.jpg If you study the nociosphere, you can learn that it has a single purpose - to inflict pain. If yo...
