We are starting a new Medieval Event this week and it will run for 18 days!
[h3]Start: September 10th, 2021

There will be lots of things to do during the event and special events in some of these days.

To kick it off, we will have TWITCH DROPS ENABLED for everyone for the first weekend!

Also around the map you will be able to find special chests containing special loot from the event and they will require Keys. More information on how to get this locker content can be found HERE.



The Medieval Season will also start and there will be special rewards at the end! All the Leaderboards will be open for everyone to get on top of it.

New items are released as well, not only the new Medieval Box, but also new melees and helmets will be made available and will be findable during the event.

[h3]GENERAL FIXES & CHANGES:[/h3]

• Created an interactive Tutorial for Beginners. Though this might seem uninteresting for some players, after analyzing and collecting feedback from new players, we realized that this game is unique to a level that with no prior knowledge, it is easy to get lost on basic actions and objectives in the game. With that in mind, we created an interactive game tutorial made available for everyone to learn basic things and to help players get into the idea of the game in a more organized and logical way than just throwing them into a server with no instruction.
• Added more in-game tips
  
• Updated the F1 Help screens.
  
• Fixed a bug that would allow players to buy Premium even when they had Lifetime Premium.
  
• Fixed an issue with the bus stop that would cause you to be stuck inside the structure after traveling.
  
• Added scrolling when you hover item names.
  
• You can now have up to five missions active in your HUD. The mission objectives on the right side are now collapsed. You can scroll between the missions by pressing a button (Default is ,(COMMA)).
  
• Fixed an issue that would cause all key bindings to be reset whenever we added a new key option.
  

[h3]COSMETICS:[/h3]

• Updated the Streamer Riot Shield for ETwo.
  
• Reworked the icons of the MP5 and its skinned versions.
  
• Reworked the icons of the M40A1 and its skinned versions.
