One day after the big update to Deadside, there is now a little follow-up, because the hotfix update 0.2.1 is supposed to improve the general chances of survival and fixes some annoying bugs.
What’s inside: There is no new content in the hotfix for Deadside. Instead, Bad Pixel developers are changing key aspects to make survival fairer.
Deadside Hotfix 0.2.1 – Less hunger & damage
Hunger & thirst reduced: Thanks to the new update, you should suffer from hunger and thirst less quickly. Players had long complained about the rapidly falling bars. Also, the damage you suffer if the ads do drop to zero is now less. Overall that was changed:

- When you sprint, you use 50 percent less food and water
- Slightly reduced damage from blank ads
Further changes
- Dealers now also buy the new weapons & attachments

- Localization improved
