Dear Community,

Today is Friday and that means WEEKEND!
For this weekend event we'll have it live for the following period of time:
 

START: January 15, 2021 12:00 PM (CET)

END: January 18, 2021 12:00 PM (CET)
 

Now, let's jump into further details about this Weekend Event:

1. Quickscope Only [PVP]
   You will only be able to shoot if you quick scope on the SNP only Rocky Ford server during this event.
    
2. Better Armors [BR]
   We are adding Custom Guerilla and Heavy Armor to the regular loot. We are going to try that out and if it works out, we will add it as something permanent.
    
3. Improved Zombie Loot [SV]
   The normal Zombies will have improved loot, which means any kind of STANAG or AK ammunition can spawn. We will also make it so they always drop something. 

• MARKETPLACE SALE!
  This week we are doing a sale on the Skin recipes and Skinboxes!
  Note: This sale is a weekly one so it has already started before the weekend event and does not have the same start-end times as the weekend event.

AC= Arcade
SV= Survival/I:SS
BR= Battle Royale
ALL= All game modes
PVP= PVP servers
CP= Competitive

Dear Community,

We are glad to announce that Steam finally enabled the option to add I:SS 2020 to your Steam library meaning people who had issues playing it from the I:SS game will not need to download another version to play, some didn't even know of the existence of the other titles and ended up never playing.
We are very sorry that this took so long, we had technical issues because of the game being laid off in the past.

Link to the game: https://store.steampowered.com/app/226700/Infestation_Survivor_Stories_2020/

Here is also a link to have a overview of the latest Patch Notes: https://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/forum/15-patch-notes-game-updates/
Small updates such as loot changes are writing inside the devupdates channel on our discord. You might wanna check that as well. Invite link is at the bottom.

 

Thank you for all of your support and we will see us hopefully in Colorado soon!
