In amongst the additions, Pocketpair have given Palworld’s building system a rework to make it “more intuitive and smooth”. You can add pillars to structures so that upper storeys don’t evaporate if you accidentally flatten a supporting wall. Defensive walls can be joined up, and there’s a new “axis alignment function”. The maximum base level is now 25, and you now own a total of four bases, though the devs note that having several (or having a lot of Pals per base) might cause performance issues.
There’s a new glass material so that you can build terrible see-through modernist panopticons and keep your Pal labourers under surveillance while lurking indoors. Work Pals will now use defensive facilities automatically, and there’s a new private lock function for chests to stop so-called friends stealing your raw materials. There are new facilities and decorations, too, including wall-mounted signs on which you might write invigorating workplace slogans, and “Pal Disassembly Conveyors” that allow you to dispose of unwanted Pals without bloodying your hands and beginning to feel like the accursed child of Old Macdonald and Lady MacBeth. Alas, it is too late to be good, for there are always more Pals to harvest.The Machine must be fed.
Last but not least, those new Pal skills. They include passives such asNocturnal, which lets Pals work throughout the night, and a few unique active abilities such as Raging Flame Wave for Faleris and Jumping Stinger for Menasting. It’s a lot. Far too much Palworlding for one article, if you ask me - there are more tweaks and features inthe full patch notes.
