Ready for Halloween!



Greetings!

CryoFall Halloween event is now live!

As mentioned in our preview post from a few days ago this event introduces a few small nice things that you can find and use in the game for the duration of the event, which includes among other things: event-specific default T-shirts, pumpkin hats and most importantly actual pumpkins which you can now farm. They are very nutritious! ;)



With this update, we're also consolidating official PvP game servers to ensure higher average online numbers across all the servers. This should make competing in PvP much more exciting.
We're also introducing Official South America server so players from this region can fully enjoy the game!

Finally, as promised in the previous post, the official PvP servers were wiped (not PvE). Welcome and enjoy the game in a fresh economy where you can again compete on equal terms!

Upcoming Halloween event and PvP servers wipe

Greetings!

While we are working on the next major update (A24) we have been able to arrange a small Halloween event.
We are planning to release this event-update in the next few days together with the PvP servers wipe which many players are waiting for. It won't introduce any new content, instead there will be just a few small visual changes like adding pumpkins, replacing hats with Halloween themed one and such.
Only official PvP servers will be wiped with this small event-update. We're also consolidating the PvP servers to ensure a higher online number on fewer servers. Hopefully, it could bring some new life to the servers.

In November you can expect the next major update release (A24) with hundreds of improvements and completely new features such as vehicles. Before that, we will open an experimental server so everyone will be able to join and check out what's new, and provide feedback so we can implement further improvements before the official release of the update.

Time for solo/duo PvP

Greetings, survivors!

If you enjoy PvP in CryoFall and you’d like another challenge, specifically designed to make it balanced for solo/duo players—we are happy to announce that CryoSmall server has now been freshly wiped and is available with new rates.
It is a great long-standing moderated community server. This server has a rule on group sizes making sure that larger groups (or alliances) are not permitted, ensuring that everyone is able to compete on a level playing field with no single large group overpowering the rest.
Join now and compete with everyone!

Server information:
— Party size is set to 2 players maximum.
— 2x rates (gather, EXP, LP).
— +1 land claim limit (max 4 land claims per player).

Time for Global PvP

Seeing as practically everyone is currently playing on EU1 (i.e. people from different all regions), it's slowly turning into a large PvP battlefield. So, to clearly reflect the reality of the situation we decided to rename it to "Global PvP"! No server wipes, don't worry. We've also changed the location to make the ping better and more equal for all players from different regions. We will also remove the raiding protection window since it didn't do much good in the first place, and now seeing, as there are people from all around the world—it makes even less sense.

We will also encourage players from all other official PvP servers to move to this server, to increase the online numbers even more and give everyone a proper experience of CryoFall. And to make this transition easier we will temporarily set Resources gathering, Skill experience, and LP gain rates to 2X for one week. It will make it slightly easier for new players to catch up to those who have already unlocked most of the technology.

Please note that this server is a fierce battlefield of large alliances against each other—it's better to play in a team. Many teams are recruiting now, feel free to drop a message on our Discord in the #looking-for-group channel and you will find a team!

We are hoping to see thrilling PvP engagements on this server! Join now!


As a side note, for solo and small teams experience, there is a CryoSmall featured moderated community server which, while isn't yet very popular but has a chance to become very popular in the near future. Join CryoSmall Discord to follow up.
