[NEW CONTENT] Rails section south of Rail Crossing

[player1]

There is a rail section south of Rail Crossing that is very dark, if you go directly to the rails (not left walk or right walk).

First section has Lurker ambush at the side doors.

Second section has ladders that go to the compound full of crawlers that connect to the caves with even more crawlers and ladders to the another cave with Black Crawler (not a gang, but a strong crawler).

What I'm interested in, is this original game content or something added with new patch?

While in my previous playthrough I did not explore everything, I'm pretty sure I explored all areas around Rail Crossing, due to other quests being near it, and I do not remember any of those encounters.

Confirmed, this is new section.

How did I verify it?

I did a backup of 1.0.0.10 game files when patch announcement was made.

Since Underrail does not use DRM, game can be started directly by exe, without Steam, which I used to start older version of the game.

Then I've gone south of Rail Crossing, with older 1.0.0.10 compatible save from my last playthrough, and verified that rail area has no area transition, unlike with new patch.

One more thing:
Thick Skull rocks against Cawlers. Better dazed then stunned.

there are at least two "dark metro tunnel" section that appeared in the Lower Underrail, another part comes from the location near the hijacked train to South Railroad Outpost.
Another section on between Foundry and CoreCity. There ironheads camp. It is interesting that there is a single surveillance camera, which seems nowhere connected.

Near Protectorate Embassy, upper level, where two Lurker were.

Yes, those are exact sections that I experienced as new.

Any unique items? Could be where the black arrow is

At Black Crawler, I got Contaminated Bullets bluprints. But maybe it is randomized.

I got the same blueprint from that area.

those blueprints are not randomized, we added static blueprints around the world, so people are not dependend on rng.

Those areas are new content, created after the release, to give the world more consistency and help with some quests so people dont have problems to find the lost train (just walk the rails).

We will add if time allows us new areas with every bigger content patch.

Not as good as antidote...

[player1]

I prefer not spending resources if possible.

[LightningMonk]

the ap penalty for using an antidote isn't as bad as thick skull. it's not like antidotes are rare drops.

[player1]

It is still a lot if there is a dozen of crawlers (like in bew content area).
