Preliminary information on the Crossout update 0.10.20.

Survivors! This week we will see a lot of interesting changes, and today we are ready to share some information on current plans for the update 0.10.20!

Let's start with changes in clan battles. The planned list of prizes and rewards for them corresponds to the first announcement:

1st place — 50 units of uranium ore
2-10 places — 30 units of uranium ore
11-30 places — 20 units of uranium ore
31-60 places — 10 units of uranium ore

Battles, as previously reported, will be held in the format of a brawl “Squad training” (“Best of 3”). Also, pay attention to the fact that we changed the time of the weekly roundup for Clan Battles. Details can be found here.

Let's move over to weapon balance changes. We remind you that based on the results of the past mass testing, we decided to make the following changes to hovers:

The power of the hovers will directly depend on the power of the cabin and engine used.
Each installed hover “Icarus VII” will reduce the power of the armoured vehicle by 5%.
Each installed hover “Icarus IV” will reduce the armoured vehicle's power by 8%.
The tonnage of both hovers will be increased from 500 to 850 kg.
The maximum possible speed of both hovers will be reduced by 12%.
The PS of both hovers will be increased from 225 to 360.
Now the power drain of an armoured vehicle with 3 (or fewer) hovers will, by default, correspond to the power drain of the same armoured vehicle with 4 hovers.
Please note that we decided to revert the changes to the durability of “Icarus IV” and “Icarus VII”, announced earlier.

In addition, in the upcoming update we plan to:

Slightly increase the value of bonus damage for each second of being invisible when using the “Ghost” cabin.
Increase the amount of energy, given by the cabin “Favorite” to 12 units.
Increase the power and resistance to damage from collisions for the cabin “Cerberus”.

Steel Championship is back!

Due to the upcoming american football event, we reinstate the “Steel Championship” as a temporary brawl and invite all the survivors to take part in exciting matches in the best football traditions of the Wasteland! The brawl will be active from February 1 to February 3 and will not replace the brawls held on schedule. Reputation and scrap metal will be awarded for participation.

In Crossout 0.10.20 we are planning to rework the lighting system in the game. The changes will allow realizing realistic effects of dispersion of sun rays in the atmosphere, the position of the clouds and their illumination will be close to real, and the colour and brightness of the Sun in the game will correspond to the time of day when the battle between the players takes place. Now it will be possible to even more expressively reflect such weather conditions as, for example, fog, the intensity of which will vary depending on the relief, smog, sandstorm, etc. In the future, the changes will also allow us to change the time of day and weather conditions at the locations.

All appearance customization kits (CK) and containers with them (“Artisan's pack”) and (“Tinkerer's pack”) will become non-tradable. If you have long wanted to buy some CK on the market and transform your favourite weapon, then now is the best time for that!

Because of the New Year according to the lunar calendar, we are planning to add a temporary pack with 5 CK in the “Customization” shop section to change the appearance of your guns:

CK “Guardsman”. Changes the appearance of the weapon “Avenger 57 mm”. Rarity: common.
CK “Demon”. Changes the appearance of the machine gun “Spectre-2”. Rarity: rare.
CK “Redbird”. Changes the appearance of the autocannon “AC43 Rapier”. Rarity: rare.
CK “Snow Leopard”. Changes the appearance of the shotgun “Sledgehammer”. Rarity: rare.
CK “Hiderigami”. Changes the appearance of the “Harvester” melee weapon. Rarity: Legendary.

Each CK can be purchased separately.

Also in the next update, we plan to rework the skills of the co-driver Hans (faction “Steppenwolfs”) in order to better meet the needs of the faction and its followers. The updated list of skills is as follows:

Level 1 — “Savvy 1”. Wheels, tracks, mechanical legs and hovers: durability +1%.
Level 2 — “Resilient 1”. Vehicle durability increased by 1%.
Level 3 — “Quickdraw 1”. Cannons: reload rate +1%.
Level 4 — “Drone master 1”. Sidekick: cooldown time - 5%.
Level 5 — “Rocketeer”. Guided missile “Clarinet TOW”: flight time +2 sec.
Level 6 — “Savvy 2”. Wheels, tracks, mechanical legs and hovers: durability +2%.
Level 7 — “Resilient 2”. Vehicle durability increased by 1%.
Level 8 — “Quickdraw 2”. Cannons: reload rate +1%.
Level 9 — “Experienced”. Reputation +2%.
Level 10 — “Protected”. Caucasus: optimal and maximum range +5%.
Level 11 — “Savvy 3”. Wheels, tracks, mechanical legs and hovers: durability +2%.
Level 12 — “Resilient 3”. Vehicle durability increased by 1%.
Level 13 — “Quickdraw 3”. Cannons: reload rate +1%.
Level 14 — “Indomitable”. Jawbreaker, Humpback: max. speed +5 km / h.
Level 15 — “Gunner”. Mandrake: +5% accuracy.

Small but crucial skill changes will also be applied to Misty (“Firestarters”) and Perseus (“Nomads”):

The skills of Misty “Oneshot 1”, “Oneshot 2” and “Oneshot 3” will increase the damage not only for “Junkbow” but also for “Fafnir” and “Nidhogg”.
Misty's skill “Strong position” will increase the durability not only for the wheels “Shiv”, but also augers “Meatgrinder”.
Skills of the co-driver Perseus, increasing the effectiveness of machine guns and miniguns, will work for rapid-fire machine guns.

In addition to the above changes, we plan to add decor in the form of various spare wheels to the “Decor container” and go through a number of documented game errors.

At the moment, the update Crossout 0.10.20 is scheduled for Thursday, January 31.

Please note that the plans described in this article are preliminary and may change in the development process or never make it into the game.
