[Contest] ‘Rebuild in Crossout!’ (2 of March - 8 of March)
Survivors!
Once Scar AB found an old magazine with images of cars that existed before the events of Crossout, and now he wants to assemble a collection of such cars. Many cars in this world are gone, and so survivors are invited to assemble a car similar to the one depicted in the photo.
The 3 best entries will be selected in two groups, and their authors will receive a reward of 300 coins and an epic "Amusement container" (first group) and 100 coins and an epic "Amusement container" (second group)!
What are the survivors searching for? What are they trying to spot with their binoculars?
Perhaps they are trying to track the first deliveries of the refined “Ghost” cabin? Or maybe get a closer look at the new leviathans, created specifically for the annual brawl with drones?
Either way, it would be easier to observe it through the cabin’s built-in scope. If such a thing would have existed, of course. Or maybe it does exist after all?
Let’s hope that March will bring a lot of interesting things to the Wasteland. In the meantime, here’s a new artwork, which, like many other images, you can download from the “Wallpapers” section of our website.
Best regards, Crossout team

[Mass testing] Changes in the physical models of certain parts.
Hello!
This week we are launching the test server again so that you can evaluate the changes in the physical models of certain weapons and structural parts. First, let’s analyze the parts themselves and how they changed.
Weapons
Many of you already know that the physical models of certain weapons in the game may not correspond to their visual models and, as a result:
the weapons with a physical model that is too big inevitably receive more damage in battle, and the ability to cover them with armor can be severely limited.
on the contrary, the weapons with a physical model that is too small, are too easily covered with other parts; they are more difficult to hit with a targeted shot or hit with a blast wave. Many players rightly pointed out that this gives an unfair advantage when assembling cars and in battles, and we agree with them.
We have refined the physical models of a number of weapons, and now they correspond to their visual models. The full list of changed weapons:
AC43 Rapier
AC50 Storm
AC72 Whirlwind
Cyclone
Vector
Sinus-0
Spectre-2
Aspect
Punisher
Synthesis
Prometheus
Helios
MG13 Equalizer
MG14 Arbiter
Reaper
Aurora
Blockchain
Breaker
M-37 Piercer
M-38 Fidget
M-39 Imp
Structural parts
The physical models of structural parts, which belong to “passive melee weapons”, have also been changed. Now, the sharpness of the angles of physical models is not as distinctive as it was before.
Basically, these changes will affect the so-called “wedges” — the vehicles, the design features of which allow you to easily pick the enemy up, depriving him of the ability to move around. Now it should be more difficult to pull off such actions on the battlefield.
Changes in passive melee weapons shouldn’t affect the vehicles of those players who use them for their intended purpose: to deal damage by ramming and protect their car from other players.
Please note that, due to technical reasons, only the weapons from the list above will be issued to you on the test server. You will be able to use only those structural parts that you have on your account.
How to get to the test server?
If you have already participated in testing on a special server, then it will be enough to start the Launcher from the folder with the test client and wait for the update to complete.
Create a new folder for the game on your hard drive.
Download the Launcher from this link. The file name should not contain numbers indicating that the file is a duplicate. Please note that you should launch the file that does not contain any digits (1), (2), etc. in its name. If, when starting the installed launcher, you get to the live game servers, you need to delete all downloaded launchers from the download folder and try again.
Start the Launcher and install the game to the folder you created (for example: D:\Public test\Crossout).
After the installation is complete, start the Launcher and enter the game with your username and password.
The whole progress of your main account will be transferred to the main server (including parts in storage and levels of reputation in factions).
After logging into the server, to transfer progress from your account, press the “Esc” key and select “Copy account data”.
Please note the schedule of the test server:
Friday, February 25, 2022: from 13:00 to 19:00 (GMT time)
Saturday, February 26, 2022: from 13:00 to 19:00 (GMT time)
Sunday, February 27, 2022: from 13:00 to 19:00 (GMT time)
Any progress you make on the test server will not be transferred to the live game servers (INCLUDING ATTEMPTS TO BUY PACKS).
After testing the changes, we invite you to leave your constructive feedback on the planned rework in THIS THREAD (it will open a bit later after the launch of the test server).
You can report all issues found on the test server here.
The public test server is intended only for testing of the upcoming update, and may not accommodate all players without exception. However, absolutely anyone can join the server, as long as there are free spots.

Fixed a bug where negative effects from “Flash I” and “CC-18 Typhoon“ led to incorrect functioning of the “Hadron” cabin’s perk and excessively fast weapon reloading.
Now the perk of the “Hadron” cabin works with the “Jubokko” minelayer.
Improved the paint of the “Hadron” cabin.
Improved the effect of the “Sword of Damocles” hologram.
The time allotted for the vehicle choice was reduced from 15 to 10 sec, and the time allotted for the preparation between rounds in the “Arena” was reduced from 10 to 3 sec.
Now, after completing a battle in the “Arena”, the results screen displays the earned Arena points.
Now you are able to earn "Missions" stripes in the “Arena” game mode.
Improved the physical model of the disk launcher “Ripper”.
Fixed a bug due to which it was possible to look and shoot through the mountain on the “Ship graveyard” map.
Fixed a bug due to which the environmental objects and the player’s car could disappear on a certain part of the “Dead highway” map.
Now you no longer need the “Maxwell” radar to produce the “Thresher” grenade launcher using the season blueprint. Also both the season blueprint and the workpiece do not require batteries.
Improved visual appearance of the “Trump card” CK.
