Infestation: The New Z News

Dear Community,

 

We are currently working on A LOT; new events, new patches, content and more all at once! One thing that we have stumbled upon recently is the amount of amazing suggestions and ideas you guys have shared with us over the past period(s) of time. This is GREAT! Although for us it can sometimes become a challenge to keep track of everything and to not miss anything. Now, we have developed a solution that we think will benefit both sides: us and you guys.

 

The System

We have developed a very simple suggestion system through our website that allows anyone to create a suggestion. Players can see a feed of all suggestions and can upvote/downvote other players' suggestions. We as staff can then mark suggestions as "under development" or "skipped" etc. to keep you updated. Players here are forced to keep their ideas simple, but strong and this especially will make things a lot easier.

Now, you might wonder: "What about the forums?" or "What about all the forum threads I have made in the past sharing ideas?"
^ We'd like to invite you to simply copy any still relevant ideas to this new system, with a link to the original forum thread so we can always find more information and see what other people think.

The same here goes for Discord. Have any ideas? It's GREAT to share them in the suggestions chat although to keep track of everything please also suggest it through our new suggestion system.

 

Where to go

We are currently still integrating the system into our website, game and social medias although the whole system itself is already accessible.

Share your suggestions here: https://suggest.playnewz.com/

 

Additional Information

To make a suggestion you'll have to create an account. Please note that you'll have to make an entire new account here as this system is separated from the official New Z website and New Z accounts. The reason for this is because it's powered by GameSupport. For now, we're only doing suggestions through the GameSupport system although we do consider later on also porting over our support system and more. It will make a lot more sense then to have an account there. Just to clarify this ;)

 

Now, go share your amazing ideas, keep doing what you're all doing and let's aim to get you all more involved in what's coming / being worked on in New Z!

 

Best Regards,

 

Sven

The time is finally there! Although summer is almost coming to an end we'd still like to bring back the summer feeling to you all with this fresh and shiny Summer Week Event! Based on feedback from the previous week events we have decided to have this event a bit longer: it will be for 2 weekends and an entire week in between! We have some very cool Competitive and Battle Royale events coming up and in addition to that, the usual Open World and Survival stuff. We'll not spoil too much for you so hold on and check the list below for all the events that are happening!

Before we jump into any event details let's make it clear over what period of time this event is taking place:

 

Start: September 6, 12:00 PM (CEST) 2019.

End: September 16, 12:00 PM (CEST) 2019.

 

Now, let's jump into the details of the event:

Loot:

• During this summer week event there will be advanced loot tables including all the items mentioned above spawning.
  All of the loot mentioned above will be spawning in both game-modes. However, for Survival, chances will vary and not be the same as in the Open World game-mode.
  This also includes:

  The contract goes as following: Step 1: Eat 50 ice creams. Step 2: Drink 20 375 ml water bottles. After this the player will be rewarded with some XP and with a Summer Box 2019. Note: Players can do this contract over and over again. The contract is a physical item and can be kept / saved by players even when the event has ended.
  
  

 

Summer Secret Spots:

• In both Open World and Survival there is special dedicated summer themed secret spots in Colorado V2, V1, Caliwood and Oregon. Now, you might have already found one of the spots as we have to patch these in during a patch before the event starts. However you will then have noticed that loot hasn't spawned there yet. Summer loot will simply be live on those locations as soon as the Summer Event starts. Once again for Survival chances will vary and not be the same as in the Open World game-mode.
