Announcement Unloze XMAS-Event

[Neon]

Ho-ho-ho-ho!
Christmas season is right arround the corner and this year the Spirit of Christmas will also be in our CSS:ZE-Server!
Starting on 1st December at 0:01 GMT+1 this Event is going to last for more than a month until 6th January 23:59 GMT+1.

During this time random presents will spawn inbetween the humans on ALL MAPS. You can collect these presents by shooting them. Don't worry, if someone shoots a present, the whole human team will be rewarded for it.

So what do I get with those presents?
There are certain Milestones you can achieve by collecting the respective amount of presents for each Milestone.

Infection Effect: 25 Presents
Infecting someone as a zombie or getting infected yourself will leave a random small christmas ornament behind.

Grenade Skins: 75 Presents
Your thrown nades will be replaced with a random small christmas ornament.

How about the ZM skin? Is it like the normal, fast or tank ZM? (Or like the VIP)

I might re-adjust the amount of presents needed for each milestone depending how the first days play out.

 

[Neon]

Nice.

It's the first time Neon try this kind of Event
So yeah people already have a large ammount of present but the value can be still change, he didnt know people will get present that fast
At least he's trying to bring something different in the community instead of our current normal Event

Its working well I think, it gives an extra (free) incentive to play on the server.

Even though its funny when people shoot the presents during boss fights instead of the boss Unloze has its priorities right

 

[Neon]

First of all thanks to @ChivasPL for telling about a nasty little bug. If you unlock the skin now, you dont have to select it again randomly on map change via !zclass.

I may increase the amount of presents needed a bit, but I am not quite sure yet. It was never meant to be a reward only for the top players, but for the normal playerbase.
Also: https://unloze.com/season/

Edit: Playerskins now unlock at 250 presents!

 

[Neon]

Update 2: Delay between present spawns has been slightly increased.

 

[Neon]

Update 3: As soon as a Zombie touches a present it gets removed instantly without any reward for the human team.
