I have that skin, if the beta was free then I maybe played it(or did I watch others play?) I just bought the skin. Got it once I went from the beta back to main branch.

Looks like all owners get it, here is how it looks in-game

Since I haven't seen anyone mentioning this, I assume that most players don't know, but (skins related spoiler) :

Mainly because I didn't notice...and also I've been kicked off of skin data mining duty.

Dang...that firepit skins look (pardon the pun) FIRE. Kinda makes me wanna buy Hot Lava just so I get get that skin...

[Mike23Ua]

That’s a cool looking fire pit skin, but it’s another one of those things we won’t get on consoles.. sigh, I hope they do some decent Halloween themed content that console players CAN get this year at least.

I am already slightly disappointed with today being International Pirate Day we didn’t get some Pirate Themed Cosmetics In-game for logging in but I mean Meh.. there’s always next year?

[AnitaCoffee]

Personally happy to have my original Autumn music back. I'd been using the mod to negate it. Looking forward to hearing it where it was meant to be implemented though! Sounds action packed.

So if you buy now Hot Lava (is that the correct name?) you automatically get that skin for DST?

yup , just did it

[GenomeSquirrel]

The newer work music was odd, it works as suspenseful a tree guard may appear any moment piece, but does not feel right for catching butterflies at all.

[minespatch]

Still waiting for my firepit popup but congrats to those that got them.

Is the lava fire pit for a limited-time only? Does anyone know?

[minespatch]

When I clicked this in my downloads, it redirected me back to DST's page. What is Common Redistributables?

That's what I'm wondering too...because as much as I'd love to purchase a 19 dollar skin...I just can't right now.

I believe that is the common libraries the many games rely on such as DirectX and the Visual C++ runtimes. As for why it linked back to DST, I'm not sure, maybe a bug in Steam's UI.

I liked the new music. I also like the old music. I hope you guys are able to reuse the new music still!

Will it be always available or just for some certain time? I wonder if it's necessary to rush with buying Hot Lava or if it can wait without worrying about losing the chance to get the skin.

[SinancoTheBest]

Yayy, my bug calls have been answered, welcome back dear old Autumn music! Hopefully that new music will find itself a good use somewhere else like Seas or Lunar Island or new biomes

[maradyne]

TURN DOWN FO WHAT

also yea hoping the new music gets reused somewhere

• Work music changed back to original Autumn.

 

View full update

Thank the heavens, original autumn is so much more fitting.

Although I do hope the new theme becomes an ocean or moon island theme! Maybe new seasonal themes when out at sea or on moon island. That'd be cool!

[Owlrust]

Just a suggestion, but the newer music would work great during dusk-work; something that never had music before. Different seasons could have dusk music as well if that's the route you guys wanted to go with this.

[Thalkas]

I really like new loyal skin! Look awesome and nice! But Im really disappointed too because we didnt get ONI (Oxygen Not Included) loyal skin when was release!

Does this mean everything is quieter? Because it seems everything's much quieter now or am I just having the placebo effect based on this "everything turned down" in the update notes ?

Of course that's what it means. This is a big deal. The non-music game is half quieter for no valid reason.

Until people actually start the game up and play (rather than just yap about skins on the forums), there should be plenty of outrage in the coming days.

I'm no audio designer, but yes, that is my understanding. Overall things will be quieter, to give room in the volume range for louder events, rather than having everything at max volume all the time. You may want to increase the volume of the game in your windows volume mixer, to balance that out a bit. Previously I had DST turned down in Windows, so I brought it back up after these changes.

Edit: also as Cyberboy2000 mentioned below, you may have turned down your sound settings in the in-game options menu already too.
