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 the presented car. Then you need to modernize it: install armour for cabin & engine and off-road tires. Use miniguns as a main equipment.


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

Hello!

A minor, but anticipated by many players is planned to be released next week. In the second half of January, the Ravens will visit the Valley again!

All the new features described here are not final and may be changed before they are introduced into the game or may not make it into the game at all.


Please note that the event will not add any new parts to the game, but this time you will be able to manufacture all the parts and cosmetic items of the Knechte and Ravens, which are still exclusive and cannot be produced on other workbenches.

As before, production will require resources, parts, and talers, a special temporary currency. Talers can be obtained in several ways, which we will tell more about with the release of the update.

There will also be a number of positive improvements: you will be able to produce already upgraded versions of the Knechte and Ravens parts, as well as some other upgraded parts.

• The optimal range is planned to be reduced from 40 to 30 m.

Developer Comment: being a close-range weapon, “Spitfire” is currently too efficient at long distances. The change will preserve the effectiveness of the shotgun at close range, but will also allow other weapons to efficiently fight against it at a distance.

• Damage is planned to be increased by 7%.

Developer Comment: according to the statistics, the cannon needed a slight increase in damage to destroy more important parts on enemy armoured vehicles with precise shots.

• Blast damage is planned to be increased by 6%.

• Blast damage is planned to be increased by 25%.

Developer Comment: both “Nest” and “Prosecutor” lacked the increase in their blast damage, which affected their effectiveness in combat. The “Prosecutor” required a minor increase, while “Nest” needed more radical changes.

• The spread from each shot will be decreased 15%.

Developer Comment: when using the grenade launcher’s perk, the players often noted that the weapon didn’t have sufficient accuracy in order to use the perk consistently. This change will help them use the bonus more efficiently and deal more damage.

• The projectile speed is planned to be increased by 33%.

Developer Comment: this change will make it easier to engage in medium-range combat and to shoot at moving targets.

• The bonus to blast damage from the weapon’s perk is planned to be increased from 40% to 50%.

Developer Comment: “Yokai” is an uncommon weapon, whose efficiency depends largely on the use of its perk. We are increasing the bonus to its blast damage so that proper use of the rocket launcher becomes more beneficial for players.

• The duration of the bonus received from the perk is planned to be increased from 5 to 8 sec.

Developer Comment: previously, it was quite difficult to use the weapon’s perk right after ramming a target. The increase of its duration will allow you to do more damage or have time to correct the position of the vehicle for subsequent firing.

• Damage is planned to be increased by 5%.
  
• The bonus from the perk will reduce the spread by up to 40% (instead of 30% previously).

Developer Comment: "Fafnir", compared to other epic shotguns, showed insufficient efficiency. A slight increase in damage and increased accuracy received from its perk will allow you to quickly shoot off weapons and other important parts from the enemy vehicle.

• The durability is planned to be increased from 535 to 661 pts.
  
• The mass is planned to be increased from 510 to 729 kg.

Developer Comment: “Cyclone” has received an increase in durability and is now ready for more aggressive gameplay. Separately, we would like to note that a single shot fired from two “Scorpions” will no longer destroy the autocannon.

• Blast damage is planned to be increased by 9%.

Developer Comment: we took into account your reports about the insufficient damage of “Stillwind”, evaluated the statistics after the 0.13.30 update, and now we are slightly increasing this parameter.

• Now the delay between shots will be shorter by 30%.

Developer Comment: Another change aimed at improving the usability and making the use of the weapon’s perk more efficient.

• The projectile speed is planned to be increased by 12%.
  
• The durability is planned to be increased from 209 to 259 pts.

Developer Comment: increasing the speed of the rockets will increase the effectiveness of the rocket launcher in medium-range combat, and the additional durability will increase its survivability in battles.

• The physical model of the shotgun will be improved (reduced).

Developer Comment: previously, the shotgun had an increased physical model that did not match the visual model. Now it will be more difficult to hit it, which will have a positive effect on its survivability. And the ability to cover it with more armour will also be a pleasant bonus.

• The reload time is planned to be increased from 2.6 to 2.8 seconds.
  
• The time to fully charge the shot is planned to be increased from 1 to 1.5 sec.
  
• The holding time for a full charge before automatic firing is planned to be reduced from 2 to 1.5 sec.

Developer Comment: the shotgun still shows an overestimated efficiency. The changes should reduce its too high DPS (damage per second) parameter, which is especially noticeable when firing in charged mode.

We remind you once again that all of the above edits are not final and may still change before the update is released.

See you on “Raven’s path”, survivors!

Hello, survivors!

The winter is in full swing! This means there will be more unique armoured vehicles with the “Icebox”! Bob Frost’s car is next.

Attention! The pack will be available for purchase only until January 20, 23:59 GMT! The pack can be purchased with crosscrowns in the in-game store.

The pack includes:

• Unique armoured car “Bobsleigh”;
  
• Unique epic rocket launcher “Snowfall” (2 pcs.);
  
• Unique customization kit for wheels “Glaze”;
  
• Paint “Red crystal”;
  
• Holographic decor “Sledge XXII”;
  
• 4000 in-game coins.

Additionally, the player receives:

• Epic cabin “Icebox”;
  
• Special wheel “Shiv (ST)” (2 pcs.);
  
• Special “Twin wheel ST” (4 pcs.);
  
• Engine “Razorback”;
  
• Holographic decor “Harness XXI”;
  
• Unique banner background and logo;
  
• Unique character portrait: “Bob Frost”;
  
• A set of stickers;
  
• Paint cans: “Cold flame”, “Material: Aluminium”;
  
• Increases the maximum number of parts used to 60.

Bob Frost has a reputation as the most unstable member of the Frost sect. After the fire in his home village, he really lost his mind. Fireworks and rockets became his main entertainment. Bob always wants more of them, and he is certainly not aware of any safety rules. His “toys” constantly explode at the most inopportune moment or with the most inappropriate force. Surprisingly, he always remains unharmed and does not even imagine how an encounter with a blast wave can harm someone. That is why even his own brothers are afraid of Bob.

Survivors!

Once Scar AB found an old magazine with images of cars that existed before the events of Crossout, and now he wants to assemble a collection of such cars. Many cars in this world are gone, and so survivors are invited to assemble a car similar to the one depicted in the photo.

The 3 best entries will be selected in two groups, and their authors will receive a reward of 300 coins and an epic "Amusement container" (first group) and 100 coins and an epic "Amusement container" (second group)!

This week we suggest you try to rebuild this car:


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

Greetings, survivors!

As you know, we have officially stopped supporting 32-bit operating systems quite a long time ago. Despite this, the ability to run Crossout on these configurations was still available in the form of a 32-bit game client, which we plan to remove in one of the next updates. Technological progress never stands still, and in order to follow it more successfully, we need to take this last step and remove the support for an outdated architecture.

For those of you who use 64-bit operating systems and the client, nothing will change — only the small option to select the client version in the launcher will disappear. If you are currently using the 32-bit version of the client for any reason, you can switch to the 64-bit version beforehand by unchecking the corresponding marker in the launcher settings panel (Settings panel -> “Force 32-bit executable”). We should note again that you will not notice any changes.

For users of 32-bit systems, however, it will be impossible to launch the game, and it will be necessary to install a 64-bit OS.
