Xmas Update + Server Maintenance
Hey Survivors!
We are preparing our last planned patch for the year 2023. This patch includes some bug fixes, Xmas content, and skin menu rework.
The skin menu rework was a feature planned for a long time because the previous one was unoptimized and caused a lot of crashes on the player's side. This menu is not completely done, some small adjustments are missing such as sorting and name scrolling, but this will come on a patch in 2024.
We will also restart all machines and make sure they are running fine through the holidays. More info about the Xmas content will come later.
Downtime is hard to calculate because we also checking out the security updates on the OS but I would assume around 1 hour max.
If you run into issues with the skin menu, please contact us at https://playnewz.com/support
