Recent News from Nastya's Holdout

AdminPwn released a development blog to keep the gaming community updated on the progress of the 3D development work. He is currently working on security and server communications programming as that is the "boring work," and will be doing the visual work later down the road.

The announcement thread can be found in the Announcements Section of the forums.

The actual blog can be found at: http://deadfrontierdev.blogspot.com/

The contest to provide messages for the new "Help Bot" to send to every new player has been finished, every winner has received a message that their suggestion will be used and the rewards of 500 credits per picked suggestion should arrive soon.

The Contest Winners

• Tlim
• Hero43698

The literal message, which was added to the contest post once finished:

AdminPwn just finished his work on a system which will automatically send new players PMs with a bit of information about gameplay now and then. Since experienced players or even just newbies probably know best what information would be valuable at a certain point in game, he started a contest to get the best ~ 100 word long PMs which should be sent to every new player in the future.

The reward is 500 credits for every PM which will be used in the end, so check the competition thread about this for more details and start writing up your own suggestions.

Reference Thread: Newbie Help Competition

Several minor updates to the code were done today, primarily to make the game a bit more newbie friendly and balance the death timer, which was reduced from a maximum of 10 minutes to 3 minutes. The 2 minutes of waiting time for dying in PvP Combat still applies though.

Aside from that...

• Every new character now receives a "Beta Tomcat" (Beretta Tomcat) and 150 rounds of .32 caliber Ammunition.
• Farmers receive an additional 80 5.5 mm bullets for their (Ruger) Mini-14.
• Soldiers receive 300 instead of 150 .32 bullets, primarily for their Skorpion.
• Police Officers receive a Mancini M1 (Benelli M1) as a primary gun, as well as 25 shotgun shells in 20 Gauge.
• Level 1 - 5 characters now get a full heal after each Death, while Level 6 - 9 get 50% of their health back. Level 10+ Characters still receive only a 10% heal after dying.
• The referring system was updated, now you get 5,000 instead of 1,000 dollar in pure cash whenever you refer a friend to Dead Frontier with the provided link, who then has to reach at least level 10.

Dead Frontier just received an update which changed most weapon names, excluding only very generic ones and renamed weapons. This had to be done for legal reasons, to avoid possible lawsuits for copyright infringement of trademarked names.

Weapons that did not match a company's existing copyright were not affected.

Shortly after the update, Crynsos posted a thread allowing users to post suggestions for weapon renames. Any ideas for names that could improve the update should be posted there.

The Clan Rules have received some updates and a new rule for all clans.

"All clan pages have to be named like the full name of the clan.

Acronym pages used as redirections to the main clan page are allowed, although a page with an acronym as name cannot be the main clan page.

Every clan may have a maximum of 2 acronym redirection pages."

All current clan pages, which are using acronyms as main page names will be converted to their full names with the acronym turned into a redirection. Everyone is free to make a new page with the code #REDIRECT [[CLAN NAME]] and insert their clan acronym, so the automatic redirection works and you can prevent typing out the full clan everytime you want to link to it.

Dead Frontier's current main freelancer artist published his new website gallery today, including various colored versions of known 3D zombie concept drawings, as well as some totally new ones. Check it out at http://www.gregtaylorart.com/
