Nether PVE Coming soon!
Good afternoon everyone we are excited to share with you our newest game mode PVE! We should be launching this VERY soon with our current build being tested now!
November Update #2
Greetings survivors of the Nether Apocalypse. We would like all of our players to know that Pure FPS is dedicated to bringing you the best experience the world of Nether has to offer. We have just rolled back to a previous build, which is more stable, and are working on opening up more servers for everyone to enjoy depending on feedback. We are also taking steps to bring in more anti-cheat and anti-hack detection to go alongside the currently installed VAC.
We took over Nether from Phosphor Games in June 2014. I would like to replay the new features and fixes Pure FPS has made for Nether since then.
New Features:
[List]
<*>Second playable Nether! Look for new Potions in the Store and in Gold Chests.
<*>Second usable attack when playing as Nether. The attack is initiated with right click.
<*>Cool-down timer for Health & Stamina items (Fixes Unlimited Sprint Exploit)
<*>New game mode: Last Man Standing, released in September 2014
Main fixes:
- Fixed obtaining items from the store or global inventory not checking your weight and size capacity.
- Stacked items now display their total weight and size in the item description.
- Fixed a bug resulting in being stuck sprinting or moving when interacting with popups.
- Fixed a bug resulting in Reapers and their minions not giving experience.
- Enemies can no longer hit players through walls by pressing against the wall.
- Fixed Nether vision effect remaining on screen after the player switches back to a human character
- General support and maintenance

Thank you for your time, patience, and feedback.

November Update #1
Hello everyone,
We have deployed our last "silent" patch on November 6. We believe this one fixes the stability issue of the servers, although it will take a few days (as always) to monitor the situation and have final confirmation. Once this confirmation has been obtained, we will gradually re-deploy additional servers to meet the demand. We are dedicated to providing the best experience Nether has to offer. Please keep posting if you encounter any issue (or just to say "Hi!", we always appreciate it).
Thank You

Last Man Standing Stress Test - Play Now!
Hello Everyone,
Sorry that this message is getting our a bit late as we are currently updating our servers with our latest update.
Servers should be coming back online as well as our new Last Man Standing Servers which will be up during our stress test.
Last Man Standing
________________
All new game mode where the goal is to be the last player alive through the means of survival and elimination. (Up to 16 players)
Players can obtain items during the match by exploring areas throughout the map OR by killing nether, which have a chance of dropping items for your player to use.
Once the match ends, rewards will be handed out to the 3 MVP's and winner of the match
(Reward items are placed in your Global Inventory and can be used in the regular game mode)
(Reward will not be places in your Global Inventory if there is not enough space for the reward)
MVP rewards are given out to players who performed exceptionally well during the match:
• Most Eliminations
• Most Damage Taken (HP loss from hunger is not counted towards this)
• Most Valuable Inventory (Sell value of each item in the player backpack when he/she dies)
We've also place a new "Leaderboard" function in the controls menu for bring up the score-board during the Last Man Standing match. This is currently defaulted to the "Tab" key but can be assigned to something more preferable.
Please feel free to try out Last Man Standing and tell us what you think. We look forward to seeing you on the server.
Thank you!
