Sector 4 isn't available for players of Fallen Earth just yet, but it's impossible not to know that it's out there, the fourth piece of a building world. As it turns out, however, Sector 4 is more than just the next zone -- it's a look into what the game's world was like before everything went to hell. In a new diary from Chris "Devo" Deavellar, the aesthetics of the new zone are discussed, and he mentions that Sector 4 is the first branch away from the fairly realistic environments seen in the game up to this point.
Deavellar mentions that just throwing a bunch of plant life around would have felt unsuitable for the game, but considering the newest sector highlights the insane experiments of the Globaltech company, the place needed an alien feel. Using several real-world plants such as kudzu for inspiration, the result is a world that still feels true to life in many ways... but also is filled with alien plants weeping amber fluid. Fallen Earth players should take a look at the full diary to get the smallest hint of what this newest zone will look like, a reminder of what would have been the future... before the end of the world.

They've long promised that the world would open up over time and there'd be new environments.
Good to see them following through.

a year and a half for the first real expansion of territory, what a joke. i still remember the map that showed sectors 4-10 in a spiral around 1-3, and how they were going to be coming out with 4 "soon" after launch.

@ed anger I guess Blizzard is a joke to you too, since their first expansion came out over 2 years following the release of Azeroth. Just think how much more of a joke this little independent studio is than Blizzard. Those pieces of crap. They should just shut the game down now and go live in a hole.

sector 4 was supposed to come out a couple months after launch, it was "almost ready". instead we got underground casinos. anyway, enjoy your dead game.
