Throughout the Brawl festival, a special workbench “Raven Pavilion” will be available in the game.
Survivors will be able to produce unique parts and cosmetic items of the Ravens and the Knechte, as well as the upgraded versions of certain parts with pre-determined upgrades.
You will need resources, additional parts and talers for crafting.
Talers can be earned in all brawls of the festival. After the end of the event, all unused talers badges will be withdrawn without the option to exchange them.

The Arbiter’s daughter has been drawn to the otherworldly since she was a child, but her father taught her only to drive and shoot, with the hope of making Alva his own bodyguard in the future. The Firestarters offered a compromise: they recognized the girl’s potential and took her with them, continuing not only to nurture her cruelty but also providing her with occult knowledge. However, the shamans soon cast the young witch out for her different view of their ideology: while fire was the most important element for them, Alva drew her strength from death. She believed that by killing a man in a fair fight, one could take away the power of the defeated. For years Alva wandered through the woods, communicating with spirits and searching for her destiny, until eventually she stumbled upon an abandoned armoured car in a cave in the swamp. The young woman decided that the vehicle was inhabited by an ancient raven spirit named Kutkh, who needed to absorb souls in order to live. The witch was able to start the car and returned to her father, who immediately offered Alva to become his bodyguard. Such cooperation was beneficial for everyone: the attempts on Petrolium’s life happened quite often, and Alva with her armoured vehicle were eager to kill.
Attention! The pack will be available until July 3, 23:59 GMT!

Other
The amount of places where a player’s car could potentially get stuck in the environment objects on the “Wrath of Khan” map has been reduced.
Improved collision models for rocket systems in the “Old town” map. Now projectiles will correctly fly through those places that don’t have any visual obstacles for them.
[/expand] [expand type=details]
Improved a number of in-game icons, buttons and windows.
[/expand] [expand type=details]
Now all holograms have a sound that is played when they are shut down.
Added 2 new music tracks specially for the Festival brawls:
Added TAA (temporal anti-aliasing) — a new anti-aliasing technology. You can learn more about this change from our announcement.
The technology replaces all MSAA anti-aliasing options. FXAA and SMAA technologies are still available in the game.
Also, when this type of anti - aliasing is enabled, you can adjust its sharpness.
Reworked the physical and visual models of the machine gun “LM-54 Chord”. Attention! The change can lead to an error in the assembled armoured vehicles if the models of the machine gun and adjacent parts overlap each other. In this case, it’s necessary to mount the machine gun differently.
Improved display of stickers in the storage.
Improved the physical model of the cabin “Cockpit”. New welding points were also added to the cabin.
Improved the physical model of the “Fukigayeshi” decor.
Improved activation and deactivation animations for built-in scopes and scope modules.
Now the hologram “Sword of Damocles” is activated only if the animation from the previous activation ended 5 or more seconds ago.
[/expand] [expand type=details]
Fixed a bug where the “Sword of Damocles” hologram would activate after destroying enemy wheel drones.
Fixed a bug where the area damage from the “Yokai” projectile didn’t affect the mines of the “Kapkan”.
Fixed an issue where the “Render Scale” setting for “FidelityFX Super Resolution 1.0” technology became temporarily unavailable after changing the anti-aliasing technology.
Fixed a bug where falling into water in certain areas of the Syndicate garage would not lead to the destruction of the vehicle.
Changed the logic of the leviathans when shooting plasma emitters. Incorrect firing led to a decrease in the amount of damage dealt.
Fixed and optimized the calculation of physical parameters of an armoured car during part destruction, which led, among other, to a strong decrease in the flight altitude and mobility of hovers.
Now the weapon scopes ignore destructible objects.
Fixed a bug where charging the “Astraeus” weapon caused damage to vehicle parts, even if the shot was not fired.
Fixed a bug where flamethrower firing sounds could be cut off when pressing the fire key was pressed quickly in sequence in areas where there was an echo effect.
Improved the physical models of the “BC-17 Tsunami” and “CC-18 Typhoon” cannons. Now, in case they are mounted symmetrically, there are no issues with different rotation angles.
Fixed a number of text strings.

Today we would like to tell you about what you should expect in the next update 0.13.70, which is scheduled for this week. It’s quite possible that many of you would want to stock up on resources for the future event.
We remind you that these announcements contain preliminary information. Some changes may be implemented by the time of the update’s release. For the same reason, we don’t announce a list of parts and/or planned recipes for their production.
So, in the next update we plan to present you:
Brawl festival
Brawl festival returns to Crossout! This time, the festival will include even more modes: for a month, a new brawl will appear every two days. On a separate note, we would like to share some great news with the survivors who miss the “Storm Warning” brawl: the festival will feature a similar mode, but with slightly modified rules.
Raven pavilion
The Ravens will return to the Valley just in time for the start of the Brawl Festival. They will reopen their workbench and will reward all participants of the brawl festival with talers. Survivors will be able to use talers and other parts and resources to produce unique parts and cosmetic items of the Ravens and Knechte, as well as some parts with pre-determined upgrades.
New unique armoured car and new garage
In this update, Alva, the daughter of Arbiter Petrolium, will arrive to the Wasteland. Her unique armoured car will be equipped with the new “Varun” crossbow and frontal wheel “Sabbath”. In just a little while we will find out what features these parts will have and what vehicle blueprints will benefit the most from using them.
Many of you guessed that in the first announcement of the new parts, we also showed you the first screenshot of the new garage. And now we invite you to take a look at its panorama. There hasn’t been a garage like that in Crossout yet! A panorama of the garage can be viewed here.
The update is scheduled to be released this Thursday. See you at the brawl festival!
