Greetings Survivors and Happy Holidays!
In this update we commence our Winter 2020 event! We’ve also made some adjustments to how supply drops spawn, these will now be triggered by completing radio tower events. There have also been some changes to the civilian bunker. Unlocking them will now require a Civilian Bunker Keycard which will be crafted from bunker USB data and a blank keycard. There have also been some various network optimizations carried out to help with server performance. The death icon when a group member is eliminated has been reworked and should be less obstructive.
