Crossout - XO_Team

Move, or we’ll run you over!

June enters the Wasteland along with wonderful news — the sixth anniversary of Crossout will surely delight all fans of the game. To be more specific, the game entered open beta stage on May 30, 2017, but its announcement took place in May 2015. We’ve come a long way since then, and who knows what lies ahead!

Follow the updates on our website and in the game’s official communities — many interesting events await you in June. The Syndicate is following the trail of the Ravagers as the survivors flock to the East quarter... the summer is going to be hot!

In the meantime, here is Crossout’s June calendar. You can download it from the project’s official website in the “Wallpapers” section.

[Update] [PC] Crossout 0.12.65. Crossout Day

Crossout - XO_Team

We wish all the survivors of the Wasteland a happy “Crossout Day”! This update introduces a special mode with commemorative rewards, the ability to exchange non-tradable parts for upgrade stabilizers and the return of raids with the Scavengers!

Crossout Day

Attention! The event will last until June 6 inclusive!

This year, to celebrate the 6th anniversary of Crossout, we’ve prepared a special mode that incorporates your favourite moments from different brawls:

“Crossout Day” is a confrontation similar to the “Free for all” brawl, where the player has no allies. You are surrounded by enemies and you need to destroy as many of them as possible!
Players participate in the battle on pre-prepared cars, but these cars are special this time. All armoured vehicles in battle were created by the players, by both individual masters and game communities.
Just like in the Winter and Spring mayhem or in the “Dronopocalypse” brawls, you can choose the vehicle on which you will continue fighting: there will always be 3 random, blueprints to choose from.
Many blueprints will still have the nicknames of the authors and original build names! You can see all this information on the blueprint selection screen.
The battle takes place on a special map that was created specifically for this event.

Commemorative rewards for participating in the brawl

You will receive memorable stickers and a unique hologram for completing the following tasks:

Participate in the “Crossout Day” brawl 6 times. Reward: 1 unique sticker “Crossout day 2051”.
Deal 36,000 damage in the “Crossout day” brawl. Reward: 1 unique sticker “Craft Ride Destroy”.
Find yourself among the top 4 players in the “Crossout day” brawl for 6 times. Reward: unique hologram “Crossout”.

Free gift

In addition to a special mode, each player who enters the game during the week will be able to get a new unique attraction for the range, allowing you to measure the damage from your weapons (yes, the analogue of useful and already familiar “Absorption sphere”) as well as 3 days of premium subscription!

Attention! To receive the gift you need to enter the game from May 27, 07:00 GMT, until June 6, 23:59 GMT, and accept it in a special window in the right corner of the screen!

Exchange of non-tradable parts for upgrade stabilizers

Now each survivor can exchange unnecessary non-tradable parts obtained from containers for upgrade stabilizers.

To obtain a stabilizer instead of a non-tradable part, select this part in your storage, open the context menu and select the “Salvage” tab. Salvaging process does not happen automatically - before it begins, you will be able to see what you will get as a result and confirm your decision.
The stabilizer obtained for salvaging corresponds to the rarity of the salvaged non-tradable part. For a rare non-tradable part, you will receive one rare stabilizer. For a special non-tradable part, you will receive one special stabilizer, etc.
Please note that non-tradable decor, paints, stickers, parts of “common” rarity, as well as parts that have been restored to your account via technical support cannot be exchanged for stabilizers.

Missions

Based on the players suggestions, additional armoured vehicles were added for raiders in battles for 10,000+ PS.

Raids

Raids with the “Scavengers” have been returned to the rotation.

Now in the graphics settings, you can enable/disable traces of shell marks on environmental objects (the “Shell hit marks” tab).

Improved the “Tank headlight” decor painting mask.
“Tank track” was added to the auto-assembly function.

Fixed a bug with the disappearance of a part of the location “Syndicate garage” when some of the tall builds exited the garage.
Fixed a bug with incorrect value of the penalty to power in the possible results of fusing chassis.
Improved a number of texts, descriptions and icons.

[Contest] ‘Rebuild in Crossout!’ - experimental stage (May 26 - June 1)

Crossout - XO_Team

Rumours about Scar AB's collection and the skill of the engineers who craft and expand it are rapidly spreading throughout the Valley. Recently, one of the trading clans turned to the Scavenger leader with the request to build several armoured vehicles to accompany the caravans, but with a special condition. All vehicles have to be similar to real-life models with slight modifications. The sense of style is not dead and gone even in this wasted world, and it's good.

Only this time, customers want to see what custom-built cars are like. And since there's a reason, Scar AB’s engineers don't mind showing what they and their artworks can do.

We will select the top 4 entries, and their authors will get a reward of 300 coins and one epic "Amusement container"! The author of the most effective armoured vehicle will receive 200 coins!

Assignment: You need to build a fire support vehicle from the proposed one. You need to install cannons as main weapon and cabin armor. You may install secondary weapons whatever you want.

All of the details can be found here. Good luck!

[Developer blog] New parts for the upcoming season (continued)

Crossout - XO_Team

You can familiarize yourself with the first part of the blog about the new season here.

Hello!

We continue to explore new features for the upcoming season! Last time we learned that there would be two new cabins, a grenade launcher and a frontal machine gun waiting for us. And that, of course, is not all. Let’s move on to other new features!

We remind you that all the new features described in the “Developer blog” are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all. This applies not only to information about possible unique features of new parts, but also to the appearance of the parts themselves.

Legendary autocannon

Let’s start with the autocannon that we showed before everything else, but we didn’t describe what it would be on the battlefield.

All of those who guessed and hoped for it to be the continuation of “Whirlwind” — well done! You are absolutely right. The autocannon is a continuation of the epic “Whirlwind”, but it has a number of unique features. Its rate of fire is lower than its epic counterpart, but the successful hits will deal more damage. Average parameters of mass and durability will allow to use this weapon on various types of vehicles.

And its perk will allow you to attack unexpectedly and will force the opponent to guess where the shells came from. It is planned that shots from this autocannon will take the owner of the car out of invisibility with a certain delay.

Epic course shotgun

Supporters of the Lunatics, rejoice — the continuation of “Goblin” is coming!

Everything is exactly as Psycho Pete likes: decent shell damage and high resistance to contact damage, which allows you to perform ramming maneuvers. The part also lets some of the damage through itself .

But now you can combine bullet and contact damage even more effectively, because the shotgun is planned to have the perfect perk for this! After you deal contact damage with the shotgun, its bullet damage will be increased for a certain time. No time for doubts, time to ram the enemy!

Special weapon reload booster

With the plans to redesign the perks of the engines and strengthen their connection to the chassis and other vehicle parameters, this module will be just right. Some engines with changed perks will be useful for the majority of vehicles, regardless of the weapons used. And if you need to speed up the reloading — the special module will be ready for use. The appearance of more effective similar modules of other rarities is also not excluded.

Freight train plow

Well, we couldn’t miss this opportunity to show you one of the new structural parts, which raised so many questions and suggestions! Look at this beauty! And with the start of the new season, you will be able to get this plow for yourself.

In addition to the new parts that we have already shown in the development blogs, other vehicle parts, as well as new structural parts may be included in the season, along with other new features. Stay tuned to make sure you don’t miss anything new!

[Mass testing] Torque. Updated version

Crossout - XO_Team

Hello!

We have reviewed your feedback after recent testing of the torque mechanics, checked and addressed a number of important points. We are ready to give you a chance to test the updated version of the changes.

We remind you that all the new features described in this news are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all.

You can read the announcement and information regarding the first testing here.

What has been changed? (im comparison with the 1st testing)

First of all, we changed the power parameters of the cabins. This corrected the excessively fast acceleration of heavy cabins and builds based on them. On the other hand, it slightly increased the dynamics of vehicles with lightweight cabins.
Wheel grip with different surfaces has been improved. The main results of this change are:
- A slight increase of drifting during turning, which all the fans of spectacular driving asked us to do.
- A general decrease in the feeling of driving “on the rails”, which is not typical for vehicles with wheels.
Increased maximum hover speed. Now these chassis will get more advantages when used in conjunction with lightweight cabins.

We invite everyone to evaluate the changes on the test server today. Don’t forget to share your thoughts and impressions with us in a special thread after the testing!

How to get to the test server?

If you have already participated in testing on a special server, then it will be enough to start the Launcher from the folder with the test client and wait for the update to complete.

Create a new folder for the game on your hard drive.
Download the Launcher from this link. The file name should not contain numbers indicating that the file is a duplicate. Please note that you should launch the file that does not contain any digits (1), (2), etc. in its name. If, when starting the installed launcher, you get to the live game servers, you need to delete all downloaded launchers from the download folder and try again.
Start the Launcher and install the game to the folder you created (for example: D:\Public test\Crossout).
After the installation is complete, start the Launcher and enter the game with your username and password.
The whole progress of your main account will be transferred to the main server (including parts in storage and levels of reputation in factions).
After logging into the server, to transfer progress from your account, press the “Esc” key and select “Copy account data”.
Please note the schedule of the test server:
- Friday, May 21, 2021: from 13:00 to 19:00 (GMT time)
- Saturday, May 22, 2021 from 13:00 to 19:00 (GMT time)
- Sunday, May 23, 2021 from 13:00 to 19:00 (GMT time)
Any progress you make on the test server will not be transferred to the live game servers (INCLUDING ATTEMPTS TO BUY PACKS).

After testing the changes, we invite you to leave your constructive feedback on the planned rework in THIS THREAD (it will open a bit later after the launch of the test server).

You can report all issues found on the test server here.

The public test server is intended only for testing of the upcoming update, and may not accommodate all players without exception. However, absolutely anyone can join the server, as long as there are free spots.
