Greetings players!
We are actively working on version 1.4, in which we plan to add a lot of functionality and fix some bugs and balance of the game, for example, there will be an apiary, new tasks, improved performance and so on.

Version 1.4 we plan to release on Friday this week.

Please write about all the bugs you have found either in the comments to this news or in our community.

You can also write your ideas and suggestions in the game community. We try to listen to you :-)

There’s talk of dark forces descending upon the frontier. All Hallow’s Eve approaches and with it come opportunities to earn bonuses for keeping nefarious entities at bay. Defend local townsfolk from waves of would-be assailants in All Hallow’s Call to Arms, with new maps arriving later this month, and earn rare, cursed items with The Halloween Pass 2.

Meanwhile, Madam Nazar requires the help of skilled Collectors to unearth hidden heirlooms and valuables, paying extra to those brave enough to traverse the frontier in these strange times. Once you’ve tracked her down, browse the selection of returning Halloween Masks — available at 25% off — before they’re gone.

Collectors can begin their quests by travelling to Madam Nazar’s storefront to acquire the Collector’s Bag (5 Gold Bars off). Turn in Collector Sets for bonus pay through November 6.




The Halloween Pass 2 returns this month with ghoulish rewards for Red Dead Online. This purchasable limited-time upgrade comes with 15 ranks and runs through November 6. Hide from gruesome foes with a catalogue of masks, blood-soaked clothing items, and murderous accessories to inspire terror in neighbors and adversaries alike.

Everything you unlock during the Halloween Pass season between today and November 6 will be yours to keep and use after the Pass expires. Players who previously purchased The Halloween Pass 2 will maintain their status.

Is it really the end of 2023 already? Where’d summer go?

Now that we’re entering the last quarter of the year, we’re gearing up for another Game Jam! From October 2nd through to October 12th, the team will be working together on their passion projects!

Accordingly, there will be no update on Wednesday, October 10.

Previous Game Jams have led to projects like Perilous Moons, the Blood Torva visual update, LMS Game Modes, Forestry and the Path of Glouphrie – so we’re as excited as you are to see what fantastic ideas the J-Mods come up with this time.

Not every Game Jam project makes it to the game, and sometimes, they look very different from how they started. For example, the Tasakaal Trials, originally pitched as a Kourend update, have transformed into the Fortis Colosseum minigame, which you’ll get to try when the first part of Varlamore releases next year.

We’ll be showing off our projects on an upcoming livestream, with another catch-up in November’s Gazette. Keep an eye on the #OSRSGameJam hashtag to see all the previews throughout the jam!

We’re taking learnings from Deadman: Apocalypse and applying them to the Permanent Deadman World!

This week’s first update is all about experience. Firstly, XP gained from quests and rewards now scales in line with your time played and your skill level, like the rest of the experience in Deadman mode. For clarification, with Protection (the first 12 hours), experience gained is 20x at level 1 through to 10x at level 50+. With No Protection, experience gained is 10x at level 1 through to 5x at level 50+.

Next up, you will no longer lose experience when dying on the Permanent Deadman world. You’ll still have to say goodbye to the 10 most valuable items in your Bank and everything currently on your person, but at least you won’t have to earn your levels back! If you previously insured experience with Gelin, you may speak to her for a refund once today’s update goes live.

Across all worlds, we’ve also added some more items to Perdu's Lost Property Shop:

• Book of the Dead
• Ivandis Flail
• Ava's Devices (Ava's Attractor, Ava's Accumulator, Ava's Assembler)
• Chronicle

Additionally, the above items and the following can now be purchased in bulk from Perdu:

• Lunar Ring
• Beacon Ring
• God Books (Holy Book, Unholy Book, Book of Balance, Book of War, Book of Law, Book of Darkness)

Finally, we’ve seen your comments about alternate accounts gaining advantages in Bounty Hunter. As of today’s update, players who are already in combat will have a 1-second PJ timer against special attacks, giving them time to react accordingly.

Survivors!

There have been a lot of new elements added to the game lately, and one of them is the “Confrontation” rating system. Of course, such an important innovation couldn’t go unnoticed, and you have often asked us how exactly the rating is calculated. “Why does my best battle get less rating than a mediocre one?” — we have received a lot of questions like this in the comments on our social media platforms.

Today, we’d like to clarify these discussions: to put it simply, the rating is calculated as your combat effectiveness per minute. But in order to understand all the details, let’s take a look at its formula:


As we can see, the calculation takes into account the following indicators:

• The outcome of the battle: victory or defeat
  
• Amount of enemies you destroyed
  
• Number of times you assisted in destruction
  
• Number of parts you destroyed on enemy vehicles
  
• Amount of captured bases
  
• Amount of times your car was destroyed
  
• Time of battle in minutes

These indicators have their own weight, which is reflected by the c1, c2, c3, c4 and c5 coefficients. Note that the last one is negative — thus, the player’s destruction reduces the rating received for the battle. The coefficient values are individual for each mode: missions, “Confrontation” and Clan wars.

As you can see, victory in a battle works as an increasing coefficient for points already scored in the battle, and not as an absolute bonus.

The time of battle has a minimum value equal to 1 minute. That means that even if the battle ended faster, the time will still be calculated with this value.

In addition, the full duration of the battle is taken as time — even if your vehicle was destroyed before the end of the battle. We’d like to note that in the Clan wars mode, the sum of the time of all battle rounds is considered for this indicator. It’s also worth noting that during such a battle you can be destroyed more than once.

The rating essentially reflects the concentration of useful player actions per unit of time. It’s up to you to decide what kind of strategy suits you best: saving your durability points and consistently dealing damage until the very end of the battle, or dealing a huge one-time damage and then going to observers!

We are still actively collecting data on the new system and carefully studying your feedback, so be sure to share your opinion!

That’s all for today. We hope you found this article helpful, and we’ll see you in the “Confrontation” mode!
