Dear Community,
(Original Post: https://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/9023-patch-34/)
As planned we are releasing patch 3.4 including fixes and improvements and the new Season Pass 04. Next to that we are also releasing the new Pulse skin collection. We are working hard on the next upcoming event although it's not just ready yet. Expect more information about that soon.
Now, without further ado, let's jump in to the patch notes:
Overall Updates: GENERAL:
- Various new assets have been added to the game related to a future medieval themed event. More information about the Medieval 2020 event will follow soon.
- Fixed an issue related to the recently added prefab spawn system. This is the system that for example controls the random appearing helicopter crashes on the maps. There was an issue that could cause the site not to spawn on private servers.
- Fixed a bug that caused players not being able to pick up particular items in secrets rooms.
VEHICLES:
- Improved / Updated textures for the racer vehicle.
- Fixed a bug causing cars to de-sync with clients.
- You can no longer exit a vehicle while trying to glitch inside a locked area. People were using cars to glitch inside these rooms / areas. We'd like to remind all of you here that we have systems in place to ban players attempting this. Don't do it.
3D MODELS:
- Upscaled textures for the airfield control tower.
SPAWN SYSTEM:
- We are working hard on the current spawn system in the game. We have heared your feedback and made according improvements: players will no longer always spawn in the exact location of the player spawn, but instead spawn in a close area around that particular spawn. This will always be random. We hope aim to improve the current situation.
Medieval 2020 Event: The Medieval 2020 event will not start just yet, so hold on! With this update we are already teasing some of the content for you guys.
- The vault NPC textures have been updated to fit the Medieval 2020 event style.
- The trading lounge has been updated to the Medieval 2020 variant.
We hope you are all as excited for this event as we are. Stay tuned for more soon!

Season Pass 04: In this update we are releasing Season Pass 04. The pass will directly be available after the update in the in-game marketplace for 2000 GC. A lot of new, unique content has been created and added to the game for this Season Pass and overall we are very happy with the result.
Based on your feedback we have created Season Pass 04 and there is a couple of things that we'd like to address and explain:
- This Season Pass will be available and over a period of time that is over 2 months. It will end on July 31, at 12:00 PM (CET) 2020. The reason for this length is so that everyone has enough time to potentially finish it and claim all the rewards from all the levels.
- The levels and XP needed per level hasn't changed compared to previous passes. We are overall pretty satisfied with the current level and XP amounts so there is not really a reason (yet) to change anything around this subject.
- New exclusive content has been added for the Season Pass 04. This goes from unique sprays and taunts all the way to skins. A lot of next-level looking skins have been added and will only be available through the season pass. (Screenshot below of the new "SVD Hell" skin that you'll only be able to get through Season Pass 04:)
And no, this is not the ONLY unique skin / content for the Season Pass 04. There is a lot more!
- There is also a dedicated key item (both for Survival and Open World) available in Season Pass 04. In this case, players can get the Season Pass 04 Key 7x for each Survival and Open World through the rewards.
Players can use these keys to enter an exclusive Season Pass 04 zone that can only be entered by players with this particular key. In these areas players have a chance to find even more exclusive Season 04 Pass-only content. And yes, even have a chance on getting ANOTHER SVD Hell skin recipe.
Risky? Yes. You'll have to venture through Colorado V2 and open the door, although since this is map based, you can also just go on your private server.
Remember, you'll only receive 7 keys in total for both Survival and Open World each. You'll only have 7 tries as they key disappears from your inventory once the door is opens.
Where are these "areas"? Well, they are caves actually. They are only on the Colorado V2 map for both Survival and Open World and there is only 1 on each map. You'll have to find the location yourself. Good luck!
