- Update on Game Bans and Enforcement - 12 January 2026
Hello Survivors!We’re seeing questions about game bans appearing on Steam, so let’s be very clear.We have moved from our internal ban system to Steam’s official game ban system. As part of this transition, all bans past and present are now being issued through Steam.This includes:A backlog of previously banned playersNewly banned players caught cheatingOur game is free-to-play, and as a result we see frequent abuse attempts using tools such as Cheat Engine and similar software. These are detected, logged, and acted on.If you see a ban on Steam:It is the result of cheatingIt is not a mistake or a “new system bug”Bans issued through Steam are permanent and will remain on record. Attempting to evade bans or harass staff will not change the outcome.Play fair, don't cheat. Cheers,PS: You can appeal any bans via our Discord server.

- Nomad 1.9b Released, 10 Years Anniversary - 31 May 2025
Hello Survivors! It’s been a while! Nomad is now running on Unity 6, bringing a wave of improvements under the hood—better performance, smoother gameplay, and a solid foundation for the road ahead. It took a very long time converting the game to this new version, especially when everything else needed to be updated.

Servers have been wiped due to this update. Nomad is 10 years old I just want to say thank you to everyone who has ever played the game.

- Nomad 1.8b Released - 13 December 2023
Hello Survivors! Not quite the big update you probably hoped for. This is because I've been working on Nyran Survivors. However, an update is still an update! I have removed the southern safe zone because it was splitting up players. I want the safe zone to be a busy hub for players. However one problem with having one safe zone was people spawn camping just outside the "safe area", killing people who walked outside. That's why two safe zones were made. But now, there is a new NPC called a Camper Driver that will teleport you to a bunch of different locations straight from the Safe Zone. No more death from safe zone campers. Servers have not been wiped. Camper Driver The Camper Driver will teleport you to locations around the map. Some locations are locked behind items. For example, if you have a Pinewood Charm item in your inventory, you can teleport to Pinewood City. These items can b…
- Nomad 1.7b Hotfix - 9 August 2023
Hello Survivors! 1.7 has so far been a success however it did launch with a few issues. Hotfixes have been rolling out, trying to squish as many bugs as we go. Some things had to change as it was causing too much server lag. Hydroponics Stations no longer need a nearby Water Barrel for a water supply. Instead now you directly put Water Bottles inside of the station. Fuel Tables will no longer automatically fill up nearby Generators. The crafting materials have been reduced to reflect the change. This was simply causing too much lag on populated servers. Nomad Celebration holiday has ended. Thanks to everyone who showed up and watched the fireworks. Below is the complete merged changelog from 1.7.0b upwards. Changelog Engine Updated to Unity 2023.1.8f1 version, should see increased performance Bug Fixes Fixed a bug with campfires not cooking food properly Fixed a bug that caused Dirty Wa…

If you power a Generator with Fuel near an Auger Drill, it will activate it. The smelting time of the Auger Drill has also been increased, it will now smelt every 3rd smelting tick on the server by default. Blood Moon Graves Changes Blood Moon Graves now have a high chance of zombies spawning when looting. More Blood Moon Graves will now spawn around the map during a Blood Moon too. Campfire Changes Campfires will now cook food one tick at a time instead of cooking the enti…

- Nomad 1.6.1b Released - 14 May 2022
Hello Survivors! Looks like people overall are enjoying the Blood Moon update, but I got some feedback regarding the balance of zombies when the Blood Moon is active. Blood Moons were originally designed to be end game content for people who are Level 10, full talents and full Legendary weapons and armour as well damage increase accessories. You are supposed to die and slowly progress getting Lost Souls so it makes your next Blood Moon more manageable. But it seems many people are missing that point and are wanting to participate in Blood Moons with little or no gear. This is overall fine, there's no point adding fun events into the game if people can't play them without spending a bunch of time first. This patch will aim to nerf the Blood Moon so it's more manageable but still needing gear to properly survive. The spawns of the zombies have been drastically reduced but keeping the same…
- Nomad 1.6.0b Released - 13 May 2022
Hello Survivors! This is a big patch, probably the biggest patch Nomad has received in its years of development. It fixes a lot of core problems with the game and adds a bunch of new content. You can read below for the full patch notes on what changed. Blood Moons Blood Moons will happen every 8 days in game (every 8 hours). When a Blood Moon starts, it will spawn zombies at an increased rate, zombies will have 50% more health and they move at an increased rate. Blood Moons are deadly, stay inside a protected area (your base or safe zone) or you could venture outside and find something new. Blood Moon Graves To those who seek a thrill, during a Blood Moon graves will spawn around the world. They act like Pallets, so walking up to them and looting them will harvest Lost Souls. They might be someone who is interested in these souls... The Reaper of Death Meet The Reaper. He will only spaw…

Hello Survivors! Quite a big patch. New Pinewood, new ammo system, new achievements and lots more! Read below for the full changelog. New Pinewood Pinewood needed some love.

Hello Survivors! New workbenches, new safe zone, balance and more! Read below for the full changelog. Thanks for playing! Workbench Changes Workbenches have changed. Workbenches are now limited to ONE per player, thus stopping one or two people claiming the entire island. If you place another workbench, your old workbench will be deleted. This will help if you cannot get to your workbench (IE raided). This may increase to 2 per player over the next update. I'll keep an eye on it. New Safe Zone Another Safe Zone added near the airfield to help spread out the players. I'm seeing a lot of safe zone camping so adding another one will help spread the players out. It is random which Safe Zone you get. You cannot choose. Saleh Has Moved Salah has moved to the new Safe Zone. As always the full changelog is at the bottom. Thanks for playing!
