Welcome to the Outskirts: A whole new world.


Welcome to the "Welcome to the Outskirts." blog section, every day until this expansion is released, there'll be at least one WttO post, showing you the experience you'll encounter as you take your first steps out of Central City in Lone!


In this post: How you get to the massive new zone
After the break!

-- Two Ways to Enter --
There are two ways you'll be able to get to the Outskirts of the city (also called the East Bay Forest)
 1. My favorite... take the East Bay Bridge across main street to the eastern part of the city. The bridge has some of the best graphics you'll see in the game, with visible 3D depth to the ocean below. There's a great attention to detail in the bridge itself, from seeing the cables going down to the massive towers at each side.


2. Quick and easy, use the Subway! But, there's a catch... You'll only be able to ride the train to East Bay Station FROM MIDTOWN STATION... which is the station that is going to receive a MASSIVE update environment-wise. It'll be covered in tomorrows update!

If you enter from the Bridge or take the subway, you'll arrive at the Bay Beach! You can swim in the water here... but it'll slow you down a bit. There's also a parking lot, so feel free to park your car then spend a while at the beach, or take the Subway to East Bay Station, go for a walk down the boardwalk... or just start swimming! Relax on the beech, pop out your phone and check for any events going on in the city tonight... there really is a LOT of new things to do in this update.
