Operation "Pumpkin Slayer" is about to begin! Read on to get the full specs for the Seasonal Mini Ops event, taking place this weekend.
Mini Ops - Flashback and Conquest
The Mini Ops event will last three days (October 20-22) and your primary mission objective will be to gather collectibles in the form of pumpkins. These are valuable resources you can later use in the event shop.
Mini Ops activities consist of:
<*>Flashback - you get to revisit (or be spoiled, depending on where you are in your Sniper career) the Underground region where you have to successfully complete the missions in parallel with locating, shooting and collecting pumpkins.
<*>Conquest - you challenge other players but cannot win or lose trophies; your goal is to gather pumpkins, but just like in the case of Flashback, you need to win your battles to be able to keep what you collect.
Worth mentioning:

Holo Badges
Released to the world in Update 29 earlier this week, Holo Badges are Holographic gears that act as a buff during PVP encounters. Each badge will come with a specific in-game bonus!
All the players received a default Holo Badge that has the following bonus: "Reloads the weapon clip after killing an enemy."
More Holo Badges will be available in future time-limited events.
Ghost Town is the 26th region to be released in the Sniper Fury universe.
Combat operatives have their work cut out for them in this single-player campaign that pit them against a group of eco-cultists:
"In the suburbs of Auron Inc.'s Future City lies Wanapucket, a Ghost Town. Pollutants from Auron Inc. factories have left this town uninhabitable; completely lethal to human life. The air is toxic, the water is like sludge and the animals are sickly and dying. This is the price of progress; the cost of capitalism. And this town's former inhabitants are tired of paying that price. They've banded together with Earthshatter, the cultists who developed that world-rending, seismological doomsday device, to get their revenge on Auron Inc. and their Future City. They're building a new seismological device to sink themselves and the neighboring Future City into the Earth's core. Millions will die if we don't stop them. Stop this atrocity from happening, and bring down Earthshatter once and for all!"
Battle Pass
Already on it's fourth season, the Battle Pass is a centralized rewarding system that incorporates most of the Sniper Fury rewards in a single place. All you need to do in order to get the rewards is to play.
New Squad Mates and abilities
Introduced this summer, the Assassin can kill the attacking player by teleporting from place to place until it reaches the player and initiates a Melee Attack. Assassin Squad Mates can be placed on both the top and the bottom rows in your base, and you can even have a 5 Assassins defense set-up.
The scope and range of Squad Mate abilities have also expanded. For example, the assault Squadmates that have the new Taunt ability are able to attract bullets towards them while highly increasing their own defense.
Two more abilities were introduced in the most recent update:
Leagues, Rating and Cellstrike Event
Hello Snipers!
Update 23 is here, the league modifications are set and will take full effect with the next Season.
Cellstrike event also suffered minor modifications.
PvP Leagues
As we said in our previous leagues related post, we’re lowering the league thresholds to be more achievable from a 2500 Elo reset and implementing Diamond Point Rewards per achieved League as it follows:
Hall of Fame members will receive an additionally 7500 Diamond Points.
Virtual now Live!
Hello Snipers!
Update 21 comes with a new zone: Virtual
After a series of mainframe hacks, Cellstrike began storing our important intel within a complex virtual world, protected by an AI security team. But last night, our AI was hacked by an unknown party, and our security team went haywire, attacking our intel banks instead of protecting them. We're jacking you into this world to subdue the renegade AI, and find out who orchestrated this glitch. To ensure instant reaction time, your entire physiology has linked to the network. So if you're killed there, you'll stay dead. Try not to get deleted, OK?
Bugfixes:
-The warlord gold collect gold and play PvP matches progress was not updated unless restarting
-Multishot ability fixes (the beholder affinity)
-Protector Squadmate improvements
Happy hunting, Snipers!
UPDATE 19 Live!
Hello Snipers!
Update 19 just hit the stores and with the mandatory update coming soon it’s time to read the patch notes.
Without further ado let’s start!
What’s new in this update:
1. Mentoring System
This system is a tribute from us from those players who reach level 60. Now they automatically become trainers and can invite other players to become their apprentices by sharing a code with them. Both the trainers and the apprentices receive extra XP from the system. Trainer gets XP rewards based on his number of apprentices. More apprentices, more XP. Apprentices receive the equivalent of 25% of the XP the Trainer receives. So growing together is win-win.
2.Global Chat
It will take some time to get used to it but we’ll get there.
3. New squadmate type - The Protector
The protector will be first introduced in clan base for free rental during weekends.
After you get used to it we’ll also introduce it in other parts of the game like chests, events and shop.
4.Warlords call.
The Daily Challenge system got a brand new design.
Now you receive random warlord quests every day, and you can re-roll if you don’t like them. Like before, they reset daily.
Keep on sniping!
Update 17 Live!
Hello Snipers and welcome to a new Sniper Fury Update.
As you already know this update is called the Quality of Life Update.
We focused more on bringing balance, fixes and improvements detrimental to other new features.
Menu redesign
We’re loving it and can’t wait to see your opinion as well. Please don’t forget to leave a comment with your feedback.
Gear sets
For a long time the Sniper Fury gear sets didn’t quite make sense. It was more viable to mix up gear parts in order to get a desired bonus. For the future gear this will change a bit.
The next gear sets will have unique Powers that will activate once you complete a set. This power can be passive (For example +20% Allied Points gain) or active (An ability similar to drones or prototype weapons)
Also all the gear sets will have a specific Affinity tag that will activate when paired with weapons that have the same affinity.
The new Gear sets and Weapons are planned to be released in this Update.
Headless squadmates
Yes, you read that well. Later this patch we will introduce Headless Squadmates. This new perk will protect them from the headshot damage and will make your base even harder to beat. Ghastly, yiikes!
Drone Ops new chapter
We’re continuously improving the Drone Ops mode and now we’re introducing its 2nd region. We know how much you liked the Egypt map so now you’ll have the chance to roam it with a drone. Take aim, Sniper!
New Regions
Two new regions have been added and will be unlocked soon.
First we’ll take a walk through the Udnerground before resting on the Pirate’s Coast beaches. Stay tuned!
Halloween event
Get ready to trick or treat!.
A special event with a very special weapon is coming!
We also squashed a couple of annoying bugs (those menus are not going to play hide and seek anymore) and also made some balancing in the game economy.
Please share your opinion on UPDATE 17 in the comments below.
UPDATE
Hello guys and welcome to the UPDATE 15 patch notes.
Without further delay let’s jump straight into action:
What’s new:
1. Drone ops.
This new gamemode brings a new level of difficulty even to the most experienced players.
In this new game mode you get to control a drone with a mobile point of view as you rain death from above upon your enemies.
What this mode brings into play is mobility. The drones will be set on a mobile viewpoint and not static. They will move all across the map searching for targets and objectives.
Let’s see who’s the best player out there by competing in the League events that take place after finishing any Done Ops Chapter!
2. Prototype weapons.
Those are some of the strongest weapons from Sniper Fury.
These weapons can be obtained by completing chapters from the Drone Ops mode.
Be careful how you are using them though. These weapons are limited and they must be recharged in order to be reused multiple times.
3.Tier 5 squadmates.
Tier 5 squadmates are now available for promoting.
Promotion costs 350 Diamond Points and it will bring great value to your base defense and great assets on your Spec Ops rotation.
Let’s see who’s the first to have a full 5 stars base! :D
4.New bullet skins and animations.
The bullet skins with animations will be available soon in the bullet skin menu on the weapon interface and also in battle packs.
Discover them all!
5.Black Market - Happy Hour.
Each purchase made by the players in the Black Market gets us one step closer to the Happy Hour. Once the bar is filled, watch for the highlighted items. The deals are great and available for a limited time!
6. Better daily challenges rewards due to the lack of freebies.
We're also trying to improve the quality of life for all players so we've made some minor modifications to the daily challenges system:
-You will get more rubies on the daily rewards
-You will get free energy instead of cash rewards
Snipers, you have places to be and missions to complete! Let's give you the complete low-down on the biggest changes and developments in Sniper Fury gameplay from the past few months.
