Situation of the Game

Dear players,

As you may have heard, the game is down due to a large fire in the datacenter where our database and web server are hosted. We are currently ordering a new one and hope to have it up by the end of today. Luckily, backups were made but a rollback up to 3 hours before the crash may happen. Stay tuned here and on discord for more information.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience,

Best Wishes from the Fredaikis Team

Season Pass 07 available NOW!




Hey Survivors!

Season Pass 07 is about to go live and will bring again its own set called Xomath.
The new pass is similar but it has some key differences and improvements:
  • The amount of Common Keys has been decreased.
  • The amount of Season Pass Xomath Skinboxes has been increased. (You get now 2 instead of 1 all the time)
  • We have added more of the recent skin boxes as rewards such as Hex, Rainbow, etc

The new price of the Season Pass will be 4000 GC and the reset will cost 2200 GC.
Basically, you get way more skin boxes for just a little more GC.

Start: 25.02.2021, 3:30 PM CET
End: 02.06.2021, 4:00 PM CET

We wish you good luck and enjoy the leveling!

Seasonal Update


Hey Survivors,

We rolled out a small update today at 9 AM CET. This patch included a lot of small changes and fixes and also all the content for Season Pass 07.

Here is a small list with more details:
  • Fixed a bug on the VSS Vintorez that had different fire modes depending on the used skin.
  • Reworked Rank 1 and Rank 2-10 leaderboard skins since they looked too similar to each other and also other skin sets.
    • Rank 2-10 will get an entire set like Rank 1. More information on patch 4.4
  • We did some small changes to the Event map:
    • Blocked the fire station doors in Clearview.
    • Blocked the backdoor of the big market in Clearview.
    • Added a jump-up between big market and mechanic in Clearview.
    • Added some nature objects around the Arenas.
  • Fixed some mistypes in all localizations.
  • Fixed the brightness settings on Caliwood (Arcade) during day and night time.
  • Removed Valentine's Day missions from the lounge.
  • Added some more protection against glitches on Caliwood.
  • Fixed the 5-Story-Building roof, it was smaller than the actual building.
  • Fixed some client-side crashes.

 

Announcement and more information about Season Pass 07 will come soon, stay tuned.
