Friends!
An Update has been installed on the game servers. Waiting for you are the dangerously cool "Outlaws" event, in which you’ll be playing in the "Domination" mode, thematic novelties, including a new arm in the medics’ arsenal — the Kalashnikov USA KHAOS, improved versions of the older Cobalt Kinetics guns and their golden versions, some reworked interface elements, and a bunch of bug fixes.
New Content
The in-game event "Outlaws"
The Outlaws event is live! Play in the "Domination" mode, complete special operations "Black Shark", "Blackout", and "Pripyat", and the "Retaliation" PvE mission. The system is the same as in the previous events: play the event mode and earn extra currency in PvE to spend in the event shop.
Kalashnikov USA KHAOS
The Medic’s arsenal has a new addition in the form of a semi-automatic version of a 12-caliber shotgun. The weapon uses a gas-operation system similar to that of some legendary Kalashnikov models. In the game, the arm is aimed to better the medics’ weapon ergonomics by increasing the rate of fire, as well as the weapon changing and reloading speeds, compared to the nearest competitors.
The characteristics of the Kalashnikov USA KHAOS can be adjusted with mods. With a unique "Jury-Rigged" mod you can switch the weapon’s firing mode into bursts-of-2, increase accuracy, yet decrease its damage and range. The other unique mod—"Trick Shot"—significantly increases the gun’s accuracy in jumping and adds extra movement speed.
The model is available in gold as well, it offers better damage and fire rate.
Other
- The "Myth" series got two new additional models: Kalashnikov USA KHAOS and Cobalt Kinetics Stealth Pistol.
Improvements of Old Weapon Models
The modification system has been expanded with the addition of some older models. Among those are Cobalt Kinetics Stealth Pistol and Cobalt Kinetics Twenty-Seven that you can now modify with mods. Furthermore, they’ve received a solid increase in their base characteristics.
Cobalt Kinetics Stealth Pistol
The weapon’s recoil has been tweaked, its damage and damage multipliers to the head and torso have been increased. On top of that, its fire rate and range have been improved, and the damage reduction by distance reduced. There’s also a golden version that differs from the regular one not only in its gorgeous appearance but also better rate of fire and range.
The model supports two unique mods. The first one offers a boost to the fire range, damage, and torso damage multipliers. The second one increases fire rate, reduces recoil, and significantly boosts head damage multipliers.
Cobalt Kinetics Twenty-Seven
The recoil has been changed, and the damage multipliers to the body and extremities have been increased for this model. There’s now also a golden model that boasts a more spacious magazine and a higher rate of fire.
The first of its two available mods, "Double Tap", allows switching the Cobalt Kinetics Twenty-Seven’s firing mode into burst-of-2 by lowering its fire rate and aiming speed, but increasing the base damage. The "Illegal Rejiggering" mod changes the firing mode into an automatic one, and decreases the damage and range. Both mods reduce the model’s recoil.

Bug Fixes
Important
- Fixed a bug that caused a significant FPS drop when the player switched weapons in the Inventory.
Weapons and gear
- Throwing Tomahawk: fixed a bug, due to which the device could damage shield bearers, ignoring their shields.
- Flaming Helmet: fixed a visual artefact, making the helmet’s texture too dark.
- Cobalt Kinetics Twenty-Seven: fixed a bug, due to which the serial versions’ silencer characteristics would be different from that of the base version.
- Rainforest HK433: fixed a bug that caused visual artefacts to appear in the first-person view after installing a unique mod.
- Undead Benelli M2 SP: fixed a bug, due to which the additional geometry on the scope in the ADS mode would be incorrectly displayed in the first-person view.
- Undead Vigilance Rifles A-M20: fixed a bug, due to which a different model was mentioned in the title and description of the achievement for eliminations with this model.
- SIG MPX Copperhead: fixed a bug, due to which only the right weapon (double-wield version) would sometimes appear in the character’s hands when picked off the ground.
- SAR Team Medic Suit: fixed a bug, due to which the character’s hands would disappear in the first-person view when helping to climb.
- Class devices (such as the Medkit or the Armour Kit): fixed a bug, due to which the active item in the character’s hands would automatically switch to a primary weapon when the device’s charges had been depleted.
- Ultra-rare SMG Scope (only for the golden versions): fixed a bug, due to which the scope’s lens would look too dark in the ADS mode.

- Spectator mode: fixed a bug, due to which the character’s name in the first-person view was not displayed.

- the first task of the contract has been changed: now you have to win 10 times in PvP or SpecOps (used to be 15).
- Crafting system: fixed a bug, due to which old currency icons would be displayed in the card swap winsow.

Known Issues
In the event, the players will get event currency and Crowns for completing the missions. However, the notification will only show information about the event currency — the Crowns will automatically be credited to your Crown funds.
Rev up those engines and rush into battle! See you in the game!
