Features [ ]

Primitive Plus enhances the gameplay of primitive servers by adding new game mechanics and over 100 custom primitive items and their Engrams. Players are challenged to use primarily wood and stone without the benefit of advanced metals. The items and mechanics focus the players on 'primitive' survival.

Among the new items are three new building material types (lumber, glass, and brick) as well as new resources, food items, weapons, traps, crafting stations and decorative structures.

Bugs [ ]

Primitive Plus currently has several minor bugs and a few major bugs that can be considered 'game breaking', in that they really impact the way you can play the game. Usually after new DLC releases or major updates P+ players have to deal with even more bugs and it takes weeks or months until they get fixed – if they even get fixed at all. (Source)

Long loading time.
- Players experience a very long loading time when logging in to a server. It seems like the game first loads the data of the base game and afterwards overwrites it by loading the P+ data additionally. Installing the game on a SSD helps considerably.
Some Engrams do not work.
- (FIXED) Notably the Climbing Pick (Aberration) can not be crafted, which has major impact to the gameplay design of Aberration. You may still use blueprints to craft them or find them as drops on Nameless.
- Canteen cannot be crafted. This bug is caused by the prerequisites of the canteen which are not available in Primitive Plus. The Canteen engram does not show any prerequisites but cannot be unlocked. Removing prerequisites through custom server settings fixed this bug.
(Unofficial server) Non-Primitive+ items disappear after server restart:
- It is possible to add engrams or items that are normally not available in P+ by implementing it in the Game.ini (if one has access to it, e.g. when hosting a dedicated Nitrado server). However, all these items disappear from any inventory after a server restart.
Beeswax (Primitive Plus) (FIXED on PS4) is unobtainable on many servers, at least on PS4 and Xbox.
Different height for different types of structures
- Especially it is not possible to walk through a Stone Doorframe if a Lumber Wall is placed upon it.
Alpha T-Rexes do not exist on the island.
- Players are not able to access Tek cave on Beta and Alpha levels due to this.
Stegosaurus TLC hasn't been added. (FIXED)
Lumber Texture/Mesh bug
- Structure changes mesh/textures after leaving render distance
- Especially the Lumber Ceiling (Primitive Plus) texture flickers and hurts in the eye so it should not be used.
(FIXED) Supply Drops did not spawn (including caves and artifacts)
(FIXED) The new Kibble system does not work for most dinosaurs.
- Players still in possession of the old kibble can still use it, but old kibble can not be created anymore.
Rockdrakes are not breedable that patch hasn't come out for prim+
