Dear players, It's time for a short patch again. The main reason that we are releasing this (smaller) patch is just simply because we didn't want to let you guys wait for too long for another update. This patch contains a lot of fixes, improvements, new content and next to all that the new mission / contract feature. We are aiming to find the right balance between making the game more beginner friendly while at the same time we keep bringing enough new content for current players. Besides everything it still is our main priority to fix crashes, optimize the game even more and fix other major and minor issues that are happening. This is also why we aim to release another smaller patch very soon that contains a lot of fixes and improvements. Now, let's jump into the patch: Overall Updates: OVERALL: Fixed some spelling mistypes / other errors in some of the newly added tips in the loading screen. Fixed Various visual and functional bugs related to the chat system. We would like to remind you all again that the chat system is still in development and we are still fixing stuff related to this new system. Added a "Loading In" status in the friend server for when they are loading game data. Fixed the vehicle camera in FPS only servers. Fixed a bug related to the clan contesting system. Reviving in-game in Beginner Servers is now free. VEHICLES: The Tuk Tuk is now spawning in all game-modes. Fixed the physics of the Tuk Tuk. When hitting this car now it is no longer invincible and plays hit sounds when hitting. Fixed the physics of the Humvee. When hitting this car now it is no longer invincible and plays hit sounds when hitting. Fixed the physics of the Sherrif Dragster. When hitting this car now it is no longer invincible and plays hit sounds when hitting. Fixed the physics of the Police Dragster. When hitting this car now it is no longer invincible and plays hit sounds when hitting. Missions & Contracts: A new feature / system! Missions & contracts are achievement based objectives for players to do in certain maps. Players can receive rewards for doing a mission or contract. We will explain further how everything works but before that we'd like to get back to why we have decided to add missions and contracts. With the aim to make the game more beginner-friendly, while at the same time aim to give already playing players more things to do we have finished the first (beta) version of the missions and contracts system. Towards beginners we think that by giving them missions to do in a map they will be more forced to understand certain parts of the game better while completing a mission while also at the same time have something new to do. For older players we have added the contract system. Allow us to explain everything: To understand how contracts work we first have to explain how missions work. Missions are map-based objectives for players to complete. By completing a mission players can receive X rewards. Missions are (usually) a one-time objective and are different and separated in each map and game-mode. This means once you finish a mission it will be considered as "finished" and not be able to be completed again. Missions are completely character based and can be started and progressed on individual characters. Please note you will only be able to have 3 missions "running" per character, per map. Progress of a mission saves so if you log out and back in you will be able to continue where you were. Since missions are character based and can be started and finished on each character individually, rewards will be given to the character you finish a mission with. This is how it looks when activating a mission: Now, let's talk about the contracts. Contracts work exactly the same way as missions except for the fact that contracts are usually repeatable. Why? Because contracts are an actual item that you have to "sign" to start. Basically you can take a contract into any server, sign it, and the same "process" as a mission starts. Another difference is that contracts can be done in any map (unless disabled) and the actual contract item disappears when signing. This makes contracts valuable. Summed up it pretty much comes down to this: there is missions but they can be started in two different ways: some missions show in the missions tab in a map, are only do-able once or some missions can only be started by signing a contract while these are usually repeatable. Note that with contracts, when signing the item disappears so that means that if you then decline that mission that you started with the contract, you will not get the contract item back. Just to make things extra clear we have an example here of how players can use contracts: Let's say you as a player have the "Kill Zombies Contract" 10 times in your inventory in a server. You can right-click, sign, the contract and the actual contract disappears so you have 9 of those contracts left in your inventory but you have started / signed one of them. You go ahead and finish the mission, it completes and you get your reward. Now, you can sign another of you 9-left-contracts. You start the same thing again, now have 8 contracts left and you can finish the mission again and get a reward again. Note that these contracts will be valuable and actual physical items that players will be able to trade or drop when die-ing with them in a server. Missions / contracts are disabled in warm-up and PVP servers. Since this system is still in beta mode we will not release any contracts for this patch yet but the whole system is in place. We will be testing with players to completely water-proof the system before fully releasing it. For now players have some very simple missions to do, just in Colorado V2 Open World and next upcoming patch we will aim to fully release the system. This means: Release of contracts. They will probably be find-able in-game and buy-able in the in-game marketplace. We might do like a "beginner starters contracts pack" or add them in daily rewards. We'll see! Release of more missions on all game-modes and maps. We aim to make amazing, interesting, funny and super hard missions and contracts. For now you'll have to stick to the "beta" but we are super excited to fully release the system (after good testing) for upcoming next patch. Item Updates: ADDITIONS: Added a new item called a "Trophy". This is literally a winners trophy and will be used as a special reward for events, seasonal leaderboards and tournaments. You can't do anything with this item expect drop it in a server or trade it. Our goal is to create a special trophy for each event we do, for example with Christmas 2018 we have a "Christmas Seasonal Leader board" planned and all the winners will then receive the "Christmas 2018 Trophy". This item will then become very valuable since it's only ever rewarded once. Added a new item (probably for Survival only): Heavy Armor (Shoulders). (For more info about this read the Survival section of the patch notes.) Added a new item (probably for Survival only): Heavy Armor (Legs). (For more info about this read the Survival section of the patch notes.) Added a new item / barricade as a new vehicle countermeasure idea. This barricade is kind of just a test and aimed for people to use / place down to block vehicles from riding them over. We are not sure yet when / how / if this item will be released so stay tuned for further updates. Added a new media riot shield: Riot Shield Afyne. UPDATES: Updated the item name of the "Light Heavy Armor" to "Heavy Armor (Body)". Since this was just the body part of the heavy armor. For more information why this name got changed can be found under the Survival section of these patch notes. Updated the damage and damage range of the grenade. Increased damage from 120 to 140 and increased damage radius from 15 meters to 20 meters. Increased the flash bang explosion radius. Increased the explosive arrow explosion radius. Skin Updates: ADDITIONS: Added some new skins and items for the Gamescom 2018 event where the New Z staff team will be attending. We have added some character clothes, a riot shield and some skins. FIXES: Fixed the K. Style NVG Fallen Angel model. Improved the overall quality of the model and fixed some smoothing issues. Model should look much better now. Fixed the Light Sword Curved Rainbow skin. The model is now way more optimized and the actual "fade" is more beautiful in one fade instead of a repeating pattern. UPDATES: Updated the skin name of the AW Magnum Gold to AW Magnum Pyrite. All of the old "gold" skins have been renamed due to the newer gold set that came out recently.

Also based on feedback from the Survival community we have decided to release the Heavy Armor very carefully: The actual Heavy Armor won't directly be available but it will be craft-able. This works simple: There is now 3 parts and each of them can ONLY be found from a certain thing / place; Alien Super zombie, Random airdrops & random military loot. You need these 3 parts + 5 cloth, 1 duct tape and 10 metal to craft 1 Heavy Armor. These 3 parts are very rare, and since you can only craft the Heavy Armor with these parts the Heavy Armor itself will be even more rare. LOOT: The Heavy Armor (Body) is now released and spawning.

Changed the type of the lights so they look and act the same but are more optimized giving players more FPS. Lights in the trading lounge now turn off when it gets day time and on when it turns night time. Added a "Disco Barn" to the lounge. Definitively go and check out this barn cause it's hilarious and worth a dance! COLORADO V2: The loot has been fixed. It now is how it was before patch 2.19 rolled out. Highered the terrain distance. Improved the color of the fog. NOTE: Some loot changes mentioned above have been executed already a while ago but for those who missed the announcements we are readdressing it on the next upcoming patch notes. Survival Updates: OVERALL: Fixed the random airdrops sometimes being empty. This shouldn't happen anymore. Fixed an issue related to the alien super zombie. This zombie now drops 2 items instead of 1. Loot should also be better. Enabled group damage in Survival. LOOT: The new PKM Ammo (200) Box is now confirmed to be spawning from random airdrops and super zombies. Buffed the loot from random airdrops in both Oregon and Colorado. Airdrops now drop 6 items instead of 4. Decreased the can of soup item spawn rate. Vehicles are now a bit less common. This is mainly done based on feedback from the community as a lot of people were abusing the vehicles to kill players. In this sense vehicles could be very overpowered. We do plan on adding more countermeasures for vehicles though. NOTE: Some loot changes mentioned above have been executed already a while ago but for those who missed the announcements we are readdressing it on the next upcoming patch notes. Have any feedback about the loot in the Survival game mode? Let us know here: http://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/5381-loot-survival/ OREGON: Night time is now darker due to request from the community. It's more scary plus it makes more sense to use NVG's now. Bus stops are not on Oregon anymore as they never were intended to be. When we add more safe zones bus stops will come back but only in safe zones. Alien Super Zombies are now enabled on this map as well just like in Oregon. Battle Royale Updates: OVERALL: Arena is now back as a Battle Royale map. We have reworked and fixed the map and we will enable this map again in the future probably with some kind of event. Attachments now auto-attach in the Battle Royale lobby. Battle Royale's now start with 20 players instead of 30 players. Battle Royale's will now also start faster if a lot of people join faster. Airdrops are now more common in Battle Royale. Have any feedback about the loot in the Battle Royale game mode? Let us know here: http://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/5380-loot-battle-royale/ SOLO / GROUP SYSTEM: Players are now able to, when playing solo, only join solo Battle Royales. Solo and Grouping is now split. Players that create a party and join a Battle Royale game will now play to others who are partied up as well separated from the solo players. This has been a huge demand from our Battle Royale community and we hope this can improve the game mode. Extra Information: This patch still has the FAC beta on/off option. This is because we are still finishing up FAC 2.0 and before that's happened we don't want to force players in FAC 2.0 due to a lot of things that could go wrong. If you have any further feedback about the FAC beta option while using it or while not using it let us know at: http://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/5407-performance/ Estimated patch size: 150 mb.

Hello Guys So here is a little idea i'd like to discuss with people: You are probably all aware of the Clan Territory System, so right now, there is not really any point to owning many clan points, except for the thrill of fighting or just to be at the top of the leaderboards. We talked in the latest devblog about adding some kind of "buff" while you are in your territory, and what makes sense, is that when you are "at home", that you're safer, so our first idea was to give a little health regeneration, but because everybody has so many meds, it really doesn't make up for the hassle of keeping the point alive, so I came up with this idea: Its basically a little shield, in this case, of 20 HP to be exact. Any damage taken will first take on the shield. So in this example i have 100% hp, plus a 20% shield. If someone deals 25 % damage to me, I will end with 95%, pretty straight-forward. So the main idea is, if you are in a Clan Territory of your current clan, then if you haven't taken any damage for 10 seconds, you will start generating a little shield slowly, to a max or 10 or 20, or something along these lines. This system can be really nice, especially if farming, and you take a hit of a zombie or something, then you won't necessarily be forced to med (heal), also in PVP, this could be a game-changer, as it could possibly save you (Sniper head-shots will still 1-hit!) if you're lucky enough. This is just my idea, really just thought i'd run it through here before, I'm not sure everybody will like this, and if you don't, perhaps you have a better idea instead. XP / GD are kind out of the picture, people already have too much of both //Fred

Dear Community, We have now added a new "International Section" in our forums. The main reason for this is to have a place for those speaking a non-English language. We felt there is a lot of players that are not on our forums simply because they do not speak English. To meet their demand we have created an international forum section with the most popular languages. (of players who play our game) We hope this is a step in the right direction to get our forums more attractive to players. Have a nice weekend! Best Regards, Sven

Keep in mind that there is a limit of 16 teams, which means that as long we have 16 teams registered, means your team will be added to a waiting list. If a team doesnt get accepted or disqualified, your team could potentially join the tournament. 6. A player cannot play for more than one team, even if in different accounts. If this happens, the teams involved will be disqualified. 7. Every team MUST use our TeamSpeak 3 Server to communicate. Detailed informations will be provided to the leader of the team. 8. Every game will be set on our timezone (CEST) https://www.timeanddate.com/time/zones/cest

+1 allways loved the v1 more than v2

Yeees please! This is what all the people I talk to want aswell.. Would be so nice if we could get this back ! ++1 for V1

Could we please have Colorado V1 instead of Colorado v2 in survival? It has already been 5 years since we started playing on V2. All of the people i asked, they all want it to be instead of V2. Please make a poll about it.

It's a giant event where gamer's alike gather to explore game's / developers go to showcase their creations.

IN THIS TOPIC I WILL LIST REASONS TO HATE THE ARENA MAP 1) Little Loot - It is almost impossible to go downtown with the good loot, regardless of whether it is meds or weapons. 2) Rapid Radiation - Radiation gives more damage and is faster than other maps. 3) Close Combat - Closed combat facilitates the use of shooting macros, making it impossible to compete with those who use it. 4) Zombies do Not Drop Anything - In some areas of the map zombies even drop a juice. 5) Bad Spawns Distributed - There are places where 2 groups of players are born practically next to each other, and the gameplay is ridiculous. 6) Factor New Map - Because it is a new map, people stop playing the other maps that are more complete, (Arizona and Tropic), being impossible for a person who does not like the arena to play in these maps, because it does not begin. The Arena took the balance out of the game, and there were few people who asked for their return. Everyone I know hates this map and through them he would never be put back. Remove the Arena!

Players are also crashing with certain languages. We are fixing this issue as well. Stay tuned for a small hotfix / server restart soon. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Servers are back online! Enjoy!

Do not remove the tropics please, it is the best map! This update was the coffin lid to kill the battle. The more I claim, the more you get worse, before I play a game of tropic per day, now even that does not work. Thank you for making more than 20 people of my clan stop playing, as we only played the tropics.

@Steve Ecke wow i'm not in the list FeelsNoNameMan

You know that Artemis left Sergey and now is working on a completly different genre. Dakotaz sold his soul and got boosted by Epic Games like crazy and now has 20k fortnite kids watching.

Nicerino Silenterrino Thinking emote isn't rendering here for me:

Dear fellow community Maybe I'm wrong, but the boats in oregon cannot be used for a sea drive with some girls and champagne? I think would be cool to use some of those abandoned boats for a drive just that Thanks & Best Regards

Seriously? Asking what assault rifles are optimal so I know what to use and trade for is a stupid and unnecessary question? Jeez man, you were a newbie once too. I'm asking questions so I can learn.

Hey, I will check all the applications asap, you can expect answers around todays evening.

Hello Everyone! I recently came up with a idea for new skins for armor and weapons, being a Agent i thought to myself it would be cool if there were police skins for those who like being good guys (prefer a challenge) just a simple navy blue ☺ or dark lightly saturated blue ☺ with the word police on it, i'm not sure if it has been suggested before but i think a lot of people would like skins like that too. i have created some examples of this skin see below Thank you for taking the time to read this and i do hope it gets considered

Damn really like the effort you put into these. If you want my honest opinion? They are kind of "simple" but hey, you know what: why not have some more "simple" skins in the game for GD? I'll work on this! Thanks once again! Best Regards, Sven

Then make them atleast wearable? cuz k.style is the only META in this game, no other helmets are being used unless its a bambi who doesnt know how to pvp ._. all armors besides the guerilla and heavy are useless.

PVE and Non-PVE then. I'll take this feedback and bring it up to silent. Thanks for making this more clear at least! How does it sound like this: When doing weekend event we have 1 point PVE and one PVP? I mean, I think that sound's good but then again we have the problem: current "Seasonal leaderboards" could be considered as PVE part.

V1 is great for survival! I like how smooth it is and I like light detail and terrain looks awesome in my opinion

V1

I will NOT give up fighting for the rights of the PVE players.

EXACTLY! Feeling left out again. This event seems as though it is aimed directly at the PVP players, and the money players. The PVE players either won't play as much this weekend, or when another event is being held (say one for PVE players) the servers will be full of PVP players trying to get in on a PVE event:( I feel your pain Campers:(:(

Why would you NOT want loadouts? When you die, do you really want to click the same old gear buttons EVERY time? Some of us die a LOT. (me)

So here are the screenshots. Varo : https://imgur.com/FEcImzz When spawn within red area, you are always in a crowd of zombies. before 2.19 they all was inside Varo. At NAto Airbase is same. See here: https://imgur.com/5oRz6vY and https://imgur.com/diYDjuw So now i take the partybus https://imgur.com/Z6jfhz8 and do warmup party in lounge https://imgur.com/WYfMn0U PS: About Zombies, they can walk through nearly everything now, tanks, containers, walls, fences and so on, can you check it please?

Tbh if you ask me. Why not have this feature in Survival?

Servers are currently going down for patch 2.20 For more information: http://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/5544-patch-220/ Downtime will be around 30 minutes to 1 hour max.

Less vehicles and no bus stops on Oregon? On a huge map thats already hard to navigate with low populations in its current state? RIP Oregon survival... if you think the populations are low now this is going to kill it, especially those looking for action.

And on the 7th. day He rested, But we gonna kill Zombies ATTENTION EVERYONE !!!!!!!! Stream Starting Soon https://www.twitch.tv/ofctb Patch 2.19 out, Drops Activated, Some BR and other info Come Get Some !!! @infestationnewz @StreamElements @StreamersCon @TwitchTV_ @Lachhh @ZoneGG @fredaikis

Great suggestions! I'll definitively keep these in mind when making the upcoming Halloween stuff. Also, just a tip: upload the images to https://imgur.com/ and you can then copy-paste the direct link and they will embed in your post. This way people can see your screenshots in the post instead of having to click on each printscreen link. Just a tip! Keep it up! Have a nice evening. Best Regards, Sven
