The Isle: A World Designed to Kill You The Isle is intended to be a gritty, open-world survival horror game. Explore vast landscapes of dense forest and open plains, traverse treacherous mountains and wade through dark swamps where horrors lurk. Hidden within are ruins that hold insight as to what came before. Through it all, keep in mind there is only one goal: survive. There is little in the way of hand holding or ulterior precepts to alter play styles or purpose. It's kill or be killed. In the end, the only one you can trust is yourself. Over the course of development the islands and their inhabitants will radically change, ever-evolving as players themselves learn how to flourish and thrive. Your mistakes will be punished. Expect no survivors.Massive Prehistoric Multiplayer Become the beast within. When joining The Isle, you can play as one of dozens of unique creatures, from tiny darting herbivores like Dryosaurus to blood-thirsty giants such as T. Rex or Allosaurus (with many more still to come!) As a dinosaur, you'll be the epitome of majestic, cunning and ferocious. Use your natural abilities and senses to stay off the menu and grow into a stronger, more capable creature. Engage with a living prehistoric ecosystem as you become either predator or prey on servers featuring up to 100+ players, all of them as hungry and dangerous as you. Form packs/herds, create nests, defend your offspring, hunt, and claim territory. A single mistake can spell your demise.Survival or Sandbox? The Isle's core game mode is Survival, a tense and difficult experience where you need to grow fast or die young. Dinosaurs in Survival mode progress through several life stages, starting out small and vulnerable. Use your scent ability, night vision and wits to survive long enough to grow, becoming more powerful and unlock new abilities such as nesting. Because of the time needed to develop a full character life cycle, not every creature is or will be playable in Survival, though more will be added in future updates. However, sometimes you don't want to struggle to survive, or you don't have the time to go through a dinosaur's whole life story. And that's okay. For players who want a less intense experience, Sandbox mode lets you play an expanded roster of dinosaurs (and soon humans!). You can jump right in as an adult super predator or a peaceful giant, with no major penalties or consequences from dying. We won't judge.A Global Community Story The Isle features a narrative told strictly through the environment, achievable only through immense cooperation among players. Are you stranded? Can you just leave? What is AE? How did the dinosaurs get here? What is the distant call that pierces the night? It will take the entire community to answer these mysteries and unravel the purpose to their being on The Isle, and each discovery will directly affect the future of the game's storyline.Future Development Goals We realize that there is a long road ahead, and a lot of work to be done to turn this into the game we want it to be. Throughout development, we will be adding a lot more to The Isle and incorporating user feedback in how we evolve the experience. Some of our planned features include: • Playable aquatic and aerial creatures • Even more playable dinosaurs with complete life cycles • Two new playable factions: modern humans & the indigenous • Evolve into advanced "strain" versions of certain dinosaurs • Realistic dinosaur AI that uses complex behaviours • Additional world biome types such as thick jungles • Dynamic aerial drop-in spawn system • Global in-game world quest • Localization of all in-game menus & text • Better accessibility & customization options • Steam Achievements, Trading Cards, Emotes • Mod support using Steam Workshop All that and more are on our radar going forward. We started with a plan of just a mere handful of playable carnivores, but based on player demand we expanded our scope, increased that number greatly and introduced herbivorous dinosaurs as well. Listening to our community has been instrumental in guiding our process and helped to correct our mistakes, and we hope that together we can transform The Isle into the ultimate dinosaur game. --AE Core TX Received-- --End Promotional Protocol-- --SiGnaL InTeRrUpt-- -tHEeNdISnevErTheENDisNeVeRtHeEnDIsNev-
Steam Deck — портативная консоль Valve на Linux-сборке SteamOS с Proton-прослойкой для запуска Windows-игр. Совместимость The Isle помечается в магазине одним из четырёх статусов: Verified (всё работает), Playable (с оговорками вроде мелкого текста или ручного подбора управления), Unsupported (не запускается из-за anti-cheat или несовместимого API), Unknown (Valve пока не проверила). Статус видно прямо на странице игры, проверьте перед покупкой если планируете играть на Deck.
Steam Workshop — встроенная платформа сообщества для модов, карт, скинов и пользовательского контента. Подписка на мод в один клик: игра автоматически скачает его при следующем запуске и обновит, когда автор выпустит патч. Не все игры подключают Workshop — это решает разработчик. Если The Isle с ним работает, в карточке игры в Steam появляется отдельная вкладка «Workshop» с топом загрузок, рейтингами и комментариями.
Steam Cloud синхронизирует сохранения между ПК автоматически: запустили дома на десктопе, продолжили на ноутбуке в дороге, прогресс перенесётся без флешек. Лимит — 1 ГБ на игру, чего хватает на любое разумное количество слотов. Offline-режим: после первого запуска и валидации лицензии The Isle можно играть без интернета — Steam запоминает состояние и не требует постоянного соединения. Это важно для длинных перелётов и нестабильного Wi-Fi.
Steam-достижения видны в общем профиле и идут к уровню Steam-аккаунта. Trading Cards — The Isle-специфичные коллекционные карточки, выпадают за время в игре; собранный сет можно превратить в значок профиля, фоны и эмодзи или продать на Community Market за реальные деньги (минус комиссия Valve). Не все игры выпускают карты — Valve модерирует это отдельно.
Точные системные требования смотрите в карточке игры в Steam — там Valve показывает официальные «Минимальные» и «Рекомендуемые» конфигурации, утверждённые разработчиком. Для современных игр уровня 2015 обычно достаточно видеокарты класса RTX 3060 / RX 6600, 16 ГБ RAM и SSD под установку. Steam при покупке проверит вашу систему через DXdiag-данные и предупредит, если железа явно не хватит.
