Crossout Update 0.3.7 ‘Knight Riders’

To anyone who has survived the catastrophe! A new gaming event is approaching, bringing new weapon, new detail, new decor, new paints, new balance and interface changes

Event ‘Knight Riders’
A new major game event is approaching in Crossout — this time with a medieval knightly theme. A an expedition of foreigners led by a young man named Martin is passing through our lands. They are calling themselves Knechte. Players can trade with them using their own currency, Talers. You can use Talers and scrap metal to build special parts: decorative elements, wheels, and a deadly crossbow. Talers will be issued for battles and missions during the event. In order to unlock new missions on the first day of the event, you need to cancel the ordinary daily missions. ‘Knight Riders’ will be with us for at least three weeks. To arms!


New weapons

  • Added a crossbow ‘Spike-1’
    • Knechte often tool up their armored vehicles with powerful crossbows. Sometimes good old cables, springs and rebars work better than explosives and gunpowder.


New parts

  • Added new wheels.
    • It's not uncommon among Knechte to fashion their wheels in the style of old cannon-wheels.


New decor

  • Armored skull
    • A skull encased in armor is a prominent Knechte decor piece.
  • Bludgeon
    • A heavy bludgeon aboard a Knechte car is a sign of great valiance hard-earned on the battlefield.
  • Huntsman's horn
    • The sound of this horn forever haunts those who met a Knechte group. And survived.

New paint

  • Plate steel.
  • Teutonic Stripes.
  • Teutonic Eagle.
  • Teutonic Cross.

A new game resource: Talers

  • Knechte are few and they need allies. They will pay handsomely to anyone ready to lend them a hand.
    • Temporary in-game currency.
    • During the event, players will receive it for participating in battles (not much) and accomplishing daily tasks (a lot).
    • It will leave play once the event is over.

The new map 
Ruins of an ancient fortress standing on a hill not far from the Sepulchre. The war once awakened it from sleep, and gloomy bunkers became its neighbours. Many years have passed since then and now battles are raging once again where the old fortifications are just observers in the new mobile and fierce war.

  • Added a new map ‘Fortress’ in ‘Encounter’ mode.
