  • CLAN TERRITORIES:
  • The clan territory system has gotten a major rework. We have changed and added a lot of features to the system. The following is changed / added:
  • We have buffed the shield clan members get when being inside a claimed area from 10 to 20%. Once again we'd like to make clear that this shield does not apply to head shot damage.
  • Clan contest points (the flags) now have health. This varies between 5.000 and 10.000 health points. The health needs to be taken down by damaging the contest point. Once the health reaches 0 contesting can start. Contest points can regenerate back to their full health over time and will if no contests or damages the point for some time.
  • Clan contest points now have their own perks. Each point is unique and can have a different perk. Perks are also indicated on the minimap. The following perks have been added:
  • Decreased zombie trigger radius.
  • Experience boost.
  • Game dollar boost.
  • Increased effectiveness of healing items.
  • Less revive time if a clan member died inside the clan territory.
  • Decreased damage from zombies.
  • The ability to regenerate health over time.
  • Decreased pick-up timer for items.
  • More health on placed shields and barricades.
  • Advanced movements: high jump and a bit faster movement.
  • Decreased crafting time. (only for Survival)
  • Please keep in mind that these perks only apply to clan members of the clan that has the clan point contested.
  • Please keep in mind that each clan contest point only has one of the mentioned perks.
  • We have also added a visual indicator for the clan territory in the minimap. You can see the territory of that point when hovering on the point in the in-game minimap. (Also the active perk shows in the minimap as mentioned before.)
  • Added a respawn option for clan members to respawn in the clan territory their clan owns. If you die, and you are in a clan that owns a clan point in the map, you'll have the option to spawn there.
  • Added a system that allows players to teleport / travel between clan contest points. This is only for Open World. If a clan owns two contest points clan members can go to one of them, hold e, and select what other contest point they'd like to travel to. There is a five minute cool down on this.
  • CHARACTERS:
  • Updated the burned zombie rig to fix this rag-doll issue: https://prnt.sc/o2k0cg

This patch we have done a lot of changes and tweaks to the Competitive game-mode, we have given Caliwood a brand new look and we have done our usual fixes and improvements.

In case you experience this please let us know in a comment on these patch notes, a forum thread, on our discord server or through a support ticket.
  • Competitive:
  • Also a lot of work has been done to the Competitive game-mode. We are getting very close to a more public beta test where we will allow certain player groups to try out this new game-mode. We are very excited to show you guys more. As you will see below is that based on feedback from earlier testing we have made a Smallville and Clearview themed Competitive map. Players just wanted to have more connection to the War Z / Infestation idea so this is what we went for for now.
  • OVERALL:
  • The Competitive store has been adjusted. Overall prices have been changed and some newer items have been added.

  • CLEARVIEW (Competitive):
  • Added more objects overall for players to have more cover behind. Object amounts have been increased significantly around contest points.

  • Some fences got lowered a little bit mainly around the White House.
  • Players can no longer get on top of the garage. "jump-up" objects got removed.
  • Players can no longer get on top of the police station. "jump-up" objects such as the bus stops got repositioned.

The exchange pool is a new feature on the Colorado V2 Survival map. The idea is that we change the exchange location and the exchangeable items from time to time.

  • For those who have missed previous updates and information about the new Competitive game-mode we recommend to read: http://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/6624-devblog-competitive-alpha/
  • We would like to list out some of the further changes we have done, even though this game mode is not publicly available yet it's good to show further changes and work done to you guys.
  • GENERAL:
  • The minimap is now showing in the Competitive game-mode.
  • Fixed a lot of crashes based on the testing we have done earlier.
  • Fixed further crashes related to the control point.
  • Fixed an issue where when a player died the body (rag-doll) would fall through the ground.
  • Fixed the reconnecting system. Players are now able to connect back to their game properly when f.e. crashing.
  • Fixed further crashes related to the reconnecting system.
  • Fixed some missing lang pack / text for in the in-game HUD.
  • Players now drop items upon death. You can not forcefully drop any items though.
  • For now the Competitive game-mode has infinity ammo. This is mostly done this way due to technical reasons.
  • Players now always look at the central control point upon spawning. This way they easier understand where to go when a round starts.
  • Spectating in Competitive has been changed to first-person only.
  • The central control point now has an icon in the HUD. This to make it easier for players to understand where to go.
  • The prices in the in-game store have been adjusted to a solid basis. We will work from here to update and balance out further.
  • Updated the beep contesting sound to a more realistic and better sound.
  • DESERT:
  • Both glow edges around the team spawns are now a more neutral color as we won't be working with team colors yet.
  • Improved the quality of the trees. Improved the texture. Should look a lot better now.
  • Fixed the LOD render distance of the central fountain. Now the model switches on a longer distance.
  • Fixed some fences that were clipped inside buildings.

New in Infestation: The New Z Online Client 2.24 - Halloween (Oct 25, 2018)

  • GENERAL:
  • Updated the English Language. Added and fixed some translations.
  • Updated the main menu music to the Halloween themed music for the Halloween Week events.
  • Updated the server browser UI. Region texts are now switched to flag icons.
  • Fixed an issue with the French Language. There was a crash when signing certain contracts.
  • Fixed an issue with the Chinese Language. There was a crash when signing certain contracts.
  • Fixed an issue with the Russian Language. There was a crash when signing certain contracts.
  • Fixed an error related to the some grass layer files.
  • Fixed a multiple client crashes.
  • Fixed a crash related to players using full-screen. Remember you can press Ctrl+alt+enter to switch from and to full-screen.
  • Fixed an issue related to the zombie spikes models where, when having your camera in a certain angle, you would drop crazy amount of FPS.
  • Fixed a bug related to the zombie render distance where they were not behaving smoothly. (for example when looking at zombies with binoculars this happened a lot.) Overall the zombies shouldn't "lag" like this anymore.
  • Fixed a bug related to the mission system where rewarded ammo couldn't be stacked and would disconnect you when stacking.
  • Fixed a character skeleton loading issue in the main menu where it would not load properly in some menus.
  • Fixed several crashes related to the vehicle system. Also fixed a major crash/disconnect issue when entering a vehicle.
  • Reworked the vehicle exiting system. This should fix issues related to randomly being teleported in the air etc.
  • Added the "view" content button (for skinboxes) in the global inventory. You no longer have to view content for a box in the marketplace, you can do it in your own global inventory now.
  • Added a sound notification when an item can't be given to you. For example when you finished a mission but your backpack was full, the mission reward would drop on the ground. Players didn't realize and lost the item like that. At least there is a sound notification now.
  • Added various Halloween content for the upcoming Halloween Week event.
  • Added several new grass/nature related content such as mushrooms and other details. This is not used in the game yet but we do plan on bringing more detailed nature ambient into the game soon. Don't worry, we'll make sure it's all optimized to the max.
  • fyRBioS.png
  • CHARACTERS:
  • Fixed the "big hands" issue with the new Elisa character. There is still some minor issues that we'd like to fix before releasing these new characters so stay tuned. We aim to release at least one of them as soon as possible.
  • Fixed some character leg part item names where some were called "leg" while they all should be called "legs".
  • Added a new leg part for the club promoter character: Club Promoter Legs Autumn. (Will be released later)
  • Added a new body part for the club promoter character: Club Promoter Body Autumn. (Will be released later)
  • Added a new set for the new Steve character called: Mad Scientist.
  • Added a new set for the Hunter character called: Cobweb.
  • Added a new set for the Shane character called: Devil.
  • Added a new set for the Average Jane character called: Autumn.
  • MODELS:
  • Fixed an issue related to the newly added bridge model where players were able to walk up the iron ropes. (Example: https://prnt.sc/l67hzu) Players were able to get high up the fundamental part of the bridge and abuse this position.
  • Improved and optimized the airdrop plane model. Model should also look better now.
  • Fixed the FPS drop issue when rotating the camera around the spiked zombie models. Also created new LODs and optimized the models.
  • CONNECTIONS:
  • A major issue (mostly for European players) that is still remaining is the "high ping player issue". We have received a lot of reports from all of you (mostly European) and we'd like to thank you all for that and let you know we are working on finding a solid and direct solution.
  • First of all we'd like to ask everyone that is playing in regions they have a high ping in, to please switch as much as possible to closer regions. It seems like a lot of players simply don't understand how ping works and the best start is to ask all of you to help them. We aim to, of course, have every player play in "their own region". As hopefully all of you understand and expect is that this is not the only thing; we are working on systems and solutions to prevent players with too high ping to play in certain servers.
  • We have the ping limited servers but this does not always work for every player. We considered making every server in every region (at least the official servers) ping limited but this will not work as some players from these regions simply won't be able to play in their own region anymore.
  • For now we have added a new system that recognizes if a player has too high ping. If so, the player will get kicked after a short amount of time with the message: "Your ping is too high! Please switch to a closer region!". Note that we have also translated this message in every language to make sure all players understand this.
  • We will keep working on improvements regarding the situation. We hope you all understand we can't make too abrupt changes either but we definitively aim to "solve" this issue once and for all. It's also important you guys let us know your feedback after the patch; if the situation got better, worse, etc. Therefor we have created a special forum thread where you can leave all your feedback. Here is the link: http://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/6208-gameplay/
  • HONG KONG SERVERS:
  • The Hong Kong private server might not be back available after the update. This is because we are switching the machine to a better one with the aim to fix all the issues. This might result in the server not being ready when we want so it might be delayed. Depending on the downtime we will consider compensation.
  • LEGACY:
  • We have now created a special legacy icon. This to indicate which items, mainly skinboxes, are legacy. Legacy in The New Z means that this box is no longer available in the marketplace for direct purchase. The ONLY way to get any Legacy box is by trading (if another player has one) or from rewards/events that we do. This icon is added as well to inform new and older players that this certain item (skinbox) is worth "something". Note that you can't get legacy boxes from re-rolling skins. Here is what the icon looks like:
  • Cool to know is that the following skinboxes are from now on officially legacy: Normal Skinbox, Premium Skinbox, Epic Skinbox, Blue Limited Skinbox, Green Limited Skinbox, Orange Limited Skinbox, Purple Limited Skinbox, Red Limited Skinbox, Yellow Limited Skinbox, Christmas Skinbox, Valentine Skinbox, Red Strike Skinbox, Halloween Skinbox, Elite Skinbox, Autumn Skinbox, Winter Skinbox, Easter Egg Basket.
  • As you can see as well is that for example the Halloween Skinbox (old one) is now legacy. In the future for an event like Halloween we'll add a special dedicated box for that year. For example; this year we'll have a Halloween 2018 Skinbox. After the Halloween week events this box will become legacy and next year we will release a Halloween 2019 Skinbox. etc.
  • LEGENDARY:
  • A little quality improvement: skin recipes can now be "Legendary". This to indicate a certain recipe is worth something / very rare. Note that for now we are not adding this border to skin recipes that are already in-game but just for new ones. We do plan on adding this to older skins that are already in the game at some point. Here is an example of what a legendary skin recipe will look like:

  • Normal Tactical Weapon Crate (rare)

  • Added a new specialist contractfor the Mossberg 590
  • PVE SPECIALIST CONTRACTS:
  • Based on you guy's demand and all your feedback we have reconsidered options in the recently released "specialist contracts" series. We have done some improvements and came up with the conclusion that's it's probably the best to make a secondary series but then aimed more towards the PVE player.
  • For now, we have decided to make the exact same specialist contracts. The only difference is that instead of killing 50 players you'll have to kill 5000 zombies to complete this contract.
  • These contracts will be called "(weapon name) PVE Specialist Contract". They are available the same way as any other contract but they are a bit more find-able than from the OW contract box. (This to also aim again more towards that PVE player)
  • Thanks for all your feedback. Keep it up. We will use it to keep improving the specialist contracts series.
