[Announcement] Anniversary of Crossout!

Crossout - XO_Team

Hello, survivors!

Starting from today, we are launching a festive in-game event prepared specifically for the 8th anniversary of Crossout! Join other survivors, take part in the festive brawl and get rewards!

Crossout Day

Attention! The event and festive rewards scale will be available from May 25 to June 7 inclusive!

This year, we’ve updated the “Crossout Day” brawl that many enjoyed playing last year:

“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 you to destroy as many of them as possible!
You can enter the mode as part of a group of up to 4 players, but all players in the group will be enemies to each other.
The battle takes place on the maps “Sand harbour” and “Abandoned town”.
Players take part in the battle on pre-built vehicles, sometimes highly unusual. All armoured vehicles in the battle are created by our players.
This year, we’ve updated the list of blueprints for the brawl. Just like before, all these blueprints are creations of our players, including not only the regular survivors, but also the blueprint builders and partners of the project.
The brawl also has respawns.
Only the first 4 places at the end of the battle are considered victorious.
The resource — scrap metal — is rewarded based on the place you occupy. The amount of scrap metal received decreases with each subsequent place.
At the beginning of the battle and after respawning, you can choose which vehicle to continue the battle on: there will always be 3 random blueprints to choose from.
Points are awarded both for shooting off parts and for destroying opponents. The points for destroying the enemy are also added to the points for all the parts that were on his armoured car at the time of destruction.

Event rewards

Each player will have access to a special event reward scale with levels for free.

You can unlock a level by completing daily challenges. One of the challenges can only be completed in the “Crossout Day” brawl. The second task is not tied to the festive brawl.
The number of levels is strictly limited by the scale. There will be no additional rewards and additional levels.
In order to unlock the whole rewards scale you need to complete all the tasks available.
All uncompleted daily challenges are accumulated. If you missed a few days, then you can easily complete several challenges in one day.
For leveling up, you can get the following rewards:
- unique blueprint and all parts of the “Armoured camper” vehicle;
- stickers, decor and paints;
- containers with resources;
- 2 containers with a “rare” part of your choice;
- a container with an “epic” CK of your choice;
- Blueprint storage;
- workbench coupons;
- unique background and logo for profile customization. The emblem displays how many years ago you joined the world of the Wasteland (or will display when your first year passes);
- Engineer badges.

[Developer blog] New season in Crossout.

Crossout - XO_Team

Hello!

It’s time for the final part of our devblog dedicated to the new season, which begins in the first half of June. And we have saved one of the main surprises (at least for fans of the spider type armoured cars) for last.

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.

Mechanical leg “Gerrida I”

The Dawn’s children have long established themselves as creators of some of the best systems for travelling through the Wasteland. And the technologies of the Ravagers have allowed them to occupy another promising niche.

Everyone who has dreamed of moving across the battlefield quickly like a spider — rejoice! The new season in Crossout will feature light and fast mechanical legs!

This epic movement part was created specifically for those who needed more mobility and more spectacular appearance. With these legs you will be able to “whirl” many medium and heavy armoured vehicles, as well as become more mobile during long-range firefights.

Among the features of “Gerrida I” we should note that it lets some of the incoming damage through, which neither “ML”, nor “Bigram” had. But the scientists didn’t add resistance to blast damage, so be careful in battles against cannons, rockets and grenade launchers!

The most important thing is how the new movement part feels in action. You just need to start moving: a speed increase of 20 km/h reveals these mechanical legs in a new way. Finally, a real spider!

The perk of these new legs will reduce the spread of mounted weapons while you are moving in a straight line or using a strafe. The bonus will not depend on the number of such mechanical legs on the car, but will decrease proportionally if there are other mounted movement parts.

Of course, “Gerrida I” will have its own special qualities. Increased mobility and reduced power consumption are offset by lower tonnage and durability. Be prepared for increasing demands on your manoeuvring skills as well as the cost of making a mistake. But is this really an obstacle for the enthusiasts of walking armoured vehicles? Arachnophobes, beware!

New structural parts

“Right heat sink” and “Left heat sink”

These 4x2x2 parts (length x width x height) will not only cover the corner parts of your armoured car, but will also help to defend your weapon more efficiently. They include bonuses in the form of resistance to thermal and energy damage.

Panel arch

Another curious 3x8x2 part, which will expand your building capabilities and increase the durability of your armoured car quite a bit.

In addition to the parts already introduced in the blogs, you can expect new cosmetic items (decor, paints, stickers), new elements for banner customization, containers with resources and parts of your choice, as well as other bonuses, which we will discuss in more detail during our traditional livestream before the release of the update.

Next week we will find out what new things await us in terms of in-game locations, learn about the planned balance changes, and then we will wait for the start of the new season. See you soon!
